Something like that did happen in one of my classes and the kids who didnt want to learn it said "why dont you just teach [ smart kid ] then? If anybody is gonna design rockets itll be him.
- jjoonathan 4y agoDo you want to tell a parent that their kid has already decided not to design rockets?

- jjoonathan 4y agoYes, but do you want to convince a delusional parent of that? I sure don't. At best it would be a thankless, difficult, and messy task.
- bee_rider 4y agoThe problem with this way is that calculus is needed to get through, like, a basic engineering degree, I assume economics if you are doing it with any rigor. I suspect these aren't like careers for the top 1% braniac kids, they are normal B+ student fields (I mean I know everyone gets straight A's in highschool now, but you know what I mean).
