Regarding the drop in learning speed after school, I have a pet theory that primary and secondary education are less about teaching people specific details of educational topics, but rather giving them a wide range of meaningful vocabulary in their native language to talk about those topics and others. As soon as you enter the workforce or even a college education, your range of meaningful topics to discuss dramatically narrows as you focus on a specialty or profession.
