word* the education is "ok", but its like stuff i already know and being intrinsically motivated does not help at all. Its not only the school but the people too. Some of them are "smart" (book-smart, knowledge doesn't span beyond their school books - a small minority) most are ignorant and worship Fox News as their god, my art teacher and i quote, just last week when i attempted to have a discussion with him about presidential candidates, had the audacity to say "Fox News is Democratic" my response, in a real corny Latino accent: "apparently their not conservative enough, eh amigo?"
The teachers are biased, the students are a little brain dead, and the environment is way to goody-goody. Thats why the moment I'm out of college I'm either A) moving back to New York, or B)Moving to a Country where the education system will force my Children to push themselves from beginning to end. Not this BS we have in the states where you don't get hit with a "challenge" until college.
try japan or south korea. when you are in high school you go to cram school from 6 am to 8am. Go to school from 8am to 3pm. Then go to cram school again from 3pm to 12 midnight with a dinner break in between, it sucks
