DAE le handegg bad?!
The way they bucket this, science/math majors learn the most followed by humanities/social science majors, followed by engineering majors. But then health, communications, education/social work, and business students learn basically nothing.
This is healthcare hero and TikTok nurse erasure!
The average student spends 3 hours on studies? And that INCLUDES classes?
At UChicago, you were supposed to take 3-4 classes a quarter and a typical class was supposed to take 10 hours of work per week so you'd have 30-40 hours of work in total. A hard class could be 20 hrs/wk.
I worked very hard for my degree in PoliSci TYVM! Do you want fries with that?
One of my favorite Professors mentioned once, "D's get degrees, but they don't get you jobs."
I have people at the school I went to who achieved a Bachelor's Degree in 2.5 Years, another became a Producer/Writer at CNN in D.C. + Successful Side-Business, a bunch became Anchors at Regional News Outlets.
And then there's some people who have gone absolutely nowhere in their lives.
Lol, lmao even 🤣👍

This guy's American politics are explicitly anti-merit and he's confused why American students don't study like Koreans? It's simple, roll back civil rights law and allow brutal entrance tests from companies.

Hate to side with the redditor, but a GPA has never influenced my decision in hiring someone. GPA is only something academics look at, they get their master's and end up working for me, a straight D student.

It has never come up for me at any of the jobs I worked. I did have an internship where I got hired and 2 months later my manager was like “hey I realized you never put your GPA on your resume, what is it?”
“Uh, 3.0?”
“Oh, thank god, I thought you were one of those 4.0 freaks”
To this day, I still wonder if she was onto something by being weary of high GPAs.

It's unironically true that they need more challenging work, why do you think it's Ivy schools with and not UChicago or MIT?

I don't know if it has always been like this, but that is insane variance from people coming out of the same program at a smaller University.:
