Haha hate to break your bubble but I am born, raised and schooled in Sweden :)
I don't live there anymore though, I left as soon as I could, can't stand the place, but that's kind of a side note, lol.
Finland and Sweden's schooling systems are very, very different.
I wouldn't have enjoyed the Finnish one either, just saying.
- gizmondo 5y agoIt must be weird to read all the fetishization of Scandinavia here? :)
- bedobi 5y agoFor sure! It gets talked about every now and then, this one generated a bunch https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24886659 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24886659
- manmal 5y agoI‘m not fetishizing. There is lots of hard evidence that at least the Swedish model is superior to what eg Central European countries have. Our country sends delegations to Sweden to analyze what they are doing better, and maybe get inspired by that. Sorry for throwing Finland into the mix, I probably misremembered.
- bedobi 5y agoApologies, I didn't mean to say you were fetishizing, just that there's a lot of Scandinavia fetishizing on HN (and everywhere else for that matter) in general, haha
- manmal 5y agoYou should have a look what public schooling looks like in most other countries, you‘d be surprised how good you had it. The fact that you dreaded school proves nothing.
