Why can't this be what high school is about, like it is in 99% of developed societies?
- reaperducer 8y agoHigh school is about giving you basic education and social skills. like it is in 99% of developed societies This is a fatuous argument. Neither you nor I are education experts, and throwing out a fake statistic just makes you look foolish. You have not done a study of 100% of developed societies to draw your conclusion. You're just making assumptions to justify your pre-conceived notions.
- umanwizard 8y agoI seriously doubt you can find examples of countries outside the US where studying a non-specific subject with a lot of broad distribution requirements is normal. I know for a fact that it is not common in the UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Serbia, or Russia. I will concede that I'm not too sure what the situation is like outside of Europe.
