The Education System of the United States of America

Your lucky Katrix, electronic games are forbidden in all the schools I've been in. We were only allowed board games.

Yeah, not gonna lie that i've been a bit spoiled with my education from high school and beyond, but my middle and elementary school experiences were pretty shit lol

I think that the American education system is making a bad effect on me in the eyes of the locals around here in Asia, since I go to a pretty much world-renowned international school that is of American origin. Not saying that my school is bad, but since it's labelled "American" it gives everyone a weird impression that I'm receiving the same education in mainland America. I, in fact, actually love going to school since the teachers talk about real life in coordination to studies, which gives me something to connect to. Honestly, though, not gonna be racist here, but the American education system is kind of giving people the wrong impression on international schools (note that it is PRIVATE not PUBLIC.)

Yeah, the public schools suck ass for the most part because there's no motivation to do anything other than get by just enough that you can be done with it.

PERO EN ARGENTINA,

Ok, funny story on the education system, more specifically New Mexico's system.

It was 12th grade physics class and we were supposed to be learning about the gravity of the planets and the physics behind orbits. Unfortunately, it devolved into teaching everyone in the class what the nine planets were. In fact, only two people in the entire class knew what the planets were (me and one other guy). Some students didn't even know that Venus was a planet! I guess that's what you get when you live in a state that was ranked in 49th place out of the U.S.'s education system. :(

It's also what you get when ranked 49th place in a country with an education system ranking below a majority of education systems.

I did some researching and here's what I found. In California, we're ranked #2 in educational input, yet #36 in educational output. It explains how everyone is high on weed here, pretty accurate results.

On a math test, everyone in my class failed except me, some other guy, and some other girl. I think I got a 95.5%, the other guy got 95%, and the other girl got the usual 98%... We were told to go outside and study for our history test as the teacher yelled at everyone else who failed.

Somebody in my calc class popped a water bottle during class
