I know I could have done without two years of basic education in the form of GenEds.
- refurb 7y agoYou have to understand the American mentality. I’ve talked with parents who told me how unfortunate that their kid can’t go to a good school. The school has a score of 9.2/10 versus the school they wanted which scores 9.5/10.
