On paper and in studies you hear so much about how "America has some of the best schools in the world". Really? Why don't you go to an average high school in the United States and see what teaching and learning is taking place if any.

When those papers talk about some of the "best schools in the world" they're talking about places like Harvard, Stanford, MIT etc.

It depends on the teacher.

Only students can learn.
Most faggots don't care and strive to be popular among their peers rather than excel in academics.

Depends, but actually the problem is American schools lower standards just to make themselves look better when in fact the students their are dumb as shit.

No, you don't. What the fuck papers are you reading? Public schooling here is a joke and we know it. Private colleges, though, are another matter...

Public education sucks dick.
Private colleges are quite good if you ask me.
It's just a matter of not letting your brain rot to dust so you can make it to the decent schooling.

Okay, I will concede that american public education sucks because of their low standards for just about everything. However, I say it depends on the teacher because while I had many terrible teachers, I've also had some superb teachers who both really cared and were also very knowledgeable about their subjects (in public schools.) They basically used their own teaching styles and graded how they wanted to, despite what the school may have wanted. I don't know, maybe this is very rare and I was just lucky.

I had the same experience in the UK, some teachers are just shit and really not suited to the job at all and others, rarely, can be awesome.

I never understood how America has some of the best private colleges yet worst public schooling systems.
Are all the students going to community college in between or something?

Answer: Unions. Unionized labor governs the public school system (which is supported by taxes, not tuition). The worse such schools got, the tighter the unions circled the wagons. The best things to do now -- since the public schools are long past saving -- is to privatize the entire system across America and let the market float out the dead wood. Thousands of useless teachers and administrators need to be laid off permanently, to be replaced by those who are actually willing to WORK for their paychecks.

The failure of the American school system:
"you stupid faggots have no life and all u do is post message on a retarded place U are those people who have no lifes and wants attenion on internet so u can be cool. You probably never kissed a girl in your life or even had a girlfriend. Your still a loser virgin right? I your mom would be ashamed of you if she saw half the stuff you do. Any way get life and go do something important you piece of trash. If anyone was to die it would be you and nobody would care. So go outside and do something important with your life."
Education is something that schooling gets in the way of.
Most people are under the false impression that education and schooling are synonymous.
Just say no to schooling and drugs. Go out and actually learn things instead of pretending to learn things when in fact you're becoming stupider and more likely to do drugs.
Don't get a piece of paper that tricks people into thinking you're smart. Actually become smart.
Why are children forced against their will with threat of imprisonment to go to awful public schools that brainwash them, make them stupid, and ruin any potential they had at becoming good, reasonable people?
The 5 GED tests represent what an average American high school graduate should be able to answer. Explaining why it's viewed by many as being "too easy". Ironically, studies have shown average high school graduates when tested have failed the GED tests.
The word education as most people view it is something that doesn't represent knowledge or effort. It represents who had the most money to buy the best degree from the best university.
I'm a high school drop out and I know more about science, history, and the English language than people majoring in those subjects.
