IKR?! I mean, I was studying for a test, and there was this question where we have to calculate the osmotic pressure on a bag with sugar, and people didn't even know that hydrostatic pressure is the product between the density of the liquid, gravity and the height of the liquid!!! Why can't people remember an equation they were taught even a little...... 2 reply
Not sure what country your from but I believe for the American education system there isn't really a focus on geography and even then when its talked about its only US geography. Also it feels like the educational system doesn't care whether you truly understood and absorbed the information but that you have the grades. Now don't get me wrong there...... reply
IDK but this sounds off to me it kind of feels like you're boasting not everyone is going to remember that stuff if they don't need to like I guess congrats you're smart and memorize stuff but not everybody can a lot of people learn differently or slower than other people do

Those are the people the future of Earth depends on... Disappointed yet? Afraid? Yep, you should be. Please, educate them!
P.S. Memorizing things doesn't mean someone is smart. Imo, 'smart' is the ability to comprehend and understand topics with logical thinking and finding logical solutions to problems. 1 reply
I'm pretty smart, but my only weakness is geography. I failed that class three times. And had too talk with my counselor to figure out how I can go on without having to pass it. But at least I know the difference between Japan and Korea. I know where Chile is. I also know where Chad is, and some others. But not a lot. 2 reply
