>>134490474
>aside from menial slave labor jobs like french fry cooker

I take that back. Even when I worked as french fry cooker, I had to do basic algebra that involved solving a fucking order using the correct number of small and medium fries provided you've already got 2 larges on the rack.

This was the case at my university too, college algebra was the most failed class.
Imo if you can't pass basic algebra you don't deserve a degree.

if I recall correctly trigonometry was a mandatory requirement in high school, if you can pass that you should be able to pass college algebra.

>>134489738
Jesus fucking christ...algebra is easy. Just balance out the fucking equation. You know, multiplication and division to...nevermind.

How many jobs even require an understanding of algebra? The majority of blacks usually work in fields that only require at least a basic understanding of pre-algebra and even then cash registers works as calculators.

Honestly I would think that algebra is more suited towards college level education anyway, I mean if you want to take part in a serious career

>>134490235

I don't know, but algebra isn't simply being able to solve "5 - X = 7, what is X."

It's essentially the capability to think abstractly about an imaginary thing that doesn't exist in front of your fucking eyes. If you can even do that, what kind of human being are you?

Jesus fucking Christ, how is this a thing? Algebra is something you should have fucking learned before you got to high school and not only are people managing to fail it in college, we have people actually floating the idea of jettisoning it as a required component of education? Get the fuck out of here with that horseshit. If you're that much of a fucking failure at the most basic of mathematical concepts then just fucking drop out. School isn't going to do shit for you at that point because you are incapable of learning anything and are suited to little more than pushing a broom or moving large objects around a warehouse.

If we're going to go that route, we should just throw the whole concept of a 'liberal arts education' out the window. If women's study majors don't need to know math, then why do STEM majors need to know women's studies? Or ANY of those bullshit liberal arts electives that BSc majors have to endure.

No, if we're continuing to believe that the purpose of college isn't strictly to prepare someone for a job but instead to give people a 'well rounded education', then you can't have that without math. And algebra is so incredibly basic a math that you can't set the bar back any further than that without it become comical. Students will get the check mark for knowing math that's taught in elementary school.

I was taking that shit way back in junior high.

The reason it's a class that has so many failures in it is because it's inherently flawed itself. When you teach algebra to pass a test you don't get any conceptual ideas of the numbers themselves. You're just learning through rote memory and sure if you can pass your class through that ability that's fine and dandy. But you are supposed to be taught to have a thorough understanding of the conceptual use of applied mathematics. That's why you are given written questions to practically apply it, but even then that's applying rote memory to a non-stress test. If you run into a situation in life where you actually have to apply mathematics in a real world scenario that requires it and all you rely on is rote memory from a math class in college then you're not going to succeed very well.

Algebra has very practical application in the real business world. If higher education can't be bothered to teach basic problem solving skills for the workforce, then it's simply not working and we need to stop funding it immediately. Let it go back to the market and sort all of this crap out.

You might as well at the same time dispense with the concept of a 'degree'. Call everything 'certifications'. Level 1 for Bachelor's degree, Level 2 for Masters, etc. With the requirements all completely decoupled from one another, different career paths can have wildly different requirements so you can't even suggest that they are on the same level.

And why even have universities? All those different areas of study in the same place unnecessarily. There's no need for a universal place of learning as there's no such thing as a 'general education' anymore. You can have schools that just teach their subject matter and everything involved.

Language and Math are the two major gifts of education. Everything else is secondary. If you don't understand this and you are an adult, well, happy cooking at McD.

I do what I can. This sort of thing really gets to me because I went all in on math in high school, taking the absolute most advanced math courses available to me. Senior year I was effectively taking college level calculus and only passed by spending a ton of time after school getting additional instruction, but I put in the time and passed it. Managed to flunk Calculus 1 in college, but took it again, passed with a decent grade and cleared Calculus 2 as well. I used to think math was my thing when I was younger because I enjoyed the zen process of working through math equations. Got as far as I could but eventually hit my wall in college, but I put in the work to find that wall goddammit.

You have to go back. Into University.

Honestly, a big problem with math is that when I was going through schools they never really put effort into objective learning. It was a "here these things are and they do this thing like this" teaching method. "Why?" "Because." "Can you give a tangible example of the concepts in play rather than just teaching us tricks?" "Stop disrupting the class."

I took Algebra I in 8th grade, Algebra II sophomore year. (I relished hanging out with older students for some reason) Everyone complained about them being hard as balls, making self-deprecating comments before tests, etc, but I fucking aced both of them. Both classes were all white students.

I'm gonna need some numbers if we're figuring out who's at fault for the high failure rate. Are students today smarter or dumber than their parents were at the same age? Has there been more material jampacked into a class today than in previous years/decades? How many teachers have complained about the material they teach their students being too overwhelming or difficult? Is that number higher or lower than in previous decades? Et cetera, et cetera.

It's called being an underachiever. You have the potential but you don't apply yourself too well which is common among people suffering from ADD and ADHD. From personal experience, school was too boring for me to want to even bother learning anything yet somehow I'm learning better at my own pace.

I don't know what the fuck you mean by your post, but my commie detector is off the charts. Day of the chopper when?

Seriously though, online courses are more accessible than ever, and most of them are completely free. Take these fucking courses before the gubmint seeps its filthy juices into them

Hey, I took trigonometry in high school, and would've taken calculus in senior year, but I dropped out. My teacher also didn't recommend it. According to him, the way our school scheduled courses made it difficult to teach math quickly. There were two algebra classes and they were considering adding a third and he recommended we all take it instead. Add geometry and trigonometry to that and there's no more room for calculus in high school, unless you somehow started algebra in 7th grade (I started in 8th).

You think Fürtwangler or Lincoln knew how to solve matrices ? Different people have different skills of varying degree
In some cases not gifted people go through college, painfully get a degree and go from lower-class to middle-class because they're decent at what they learned. Why should that be discouraged ?

Which Fürtwangler are we talking about? There was a mathmatician named Fürtwangler. Regardless, Lincoln wasn't a brainlet and could have learned out to solve a matrix. That's the difference.

I'm not advocating communism. I'm saying that basing everything on maximizing profit over the ethics of action is unfettered capitalistic thought.

Doing something whilst shoving ethics aside isn't uniquely a thing of capitalism. Most systems have their own version of putting their own head up their ass where they disregard ethicality for the sake of ideology. But doing it to maximize profit and run things like a business is capitalism's bit.

The concept, to some, of calculus is difficult. Procedural manipulation of algebraic expressions is easy. To understand calculus based on limits, rate of change, etc. is difficult, to some.

Math major here. I worked in a university in Louisiana helping teach freshmen math at the lab. The kids coming out of high school are dumb as shit. They aren't bring taught mathematics in the right way. Many of them are lacking core concepts such as what a variable even is. Such a lack of understanding indicates a severely limited grasp of elementary grade math.
The education system is failing our children in a big way. This is why we need private education. At least then the children being educated would have a real, meaningful education rather than this filth shoved down their throats to maximize teacher salaries rather than install lasting knowledge.
Fucking Jews

>>134496293
geometry is barely wasting half a class on.

They should be teaching statistics as well, but I don't see how without algebra.

I think either of them would have easily been capable of learning how to solve matrices were they to be exposed to them.

These white person welfare make work jobs are going to be the first on the chopping block once AI/bots get more thoroughly implemented (already has been in most firms for legal analysis and brokerage).

Academia is not some magical pathway to a job, it is the forefront of knowledge and discovery, and if you are not capable of contributing back in some form rather than just taking out, you should not be enrolled, let alone getting free rides to go there.

True. And things are changing rapidly; specifically technology(ies). There are some very basic elements that one can master that keeps them perpetually employed. If they're jew wise, they will never allow their eyes be too big for their stomachs. They will always be on guard about finances, and never over-extending themselves.

Because today, it isn't just about mastering skills, or paying off mortgages, or raising children and funding 'their' education, or inheritances...it's about competing with global talent + paying for crack babies + crack whores + little Juan and Juanita who want 20-30 little Juan's and Juanita's + Tyrone's legal fees and prison costs + properties destroyed because an innocent Harvard bound unarmed cherub taking hand-written letters to grandma on his way home from volunteering at the soup kitchen was gunned down by a Aryan Neo-Nazi climate denier playing AC/DC on full blast + the cost of financing, fighting and dying in wars for all but your own nation while calling it "patriotism" + a new computer that meets the requirements of new software...but other than that it's a piece of cake

The design, synthesis, and application of molecules requires literally the least amount of math. All you need to be is creative and practical.

Math is gay.

My wife said math was hard for her, so I put it to the test.
She was slow in the beginning because she hated Algebra with a passion and slacked off in class, but she was able to finish my makeshift test (I'm an algebra teacher) 45 minutes before time would've been up. She had an hour to answer 30 algebra questions and managed to do it in 15 minutes. My nigger students-even the ones that apply themselves- finish it within the last 5 minutes of time. It might be a combination of her being lazy and not applying herself- but she certainly was good at algebra. Calculus she has no idea about because she was never taught calculus. So I've been teaching her about it since it's summer vacation.

It's a subset of EE in Serbia.
We work with power production, transmission and consumption. We had core courses in electric drives, grid analysis, high-voltage related fields and low voltage electo installations. We also had core courses in electronics and power electronics, programming and automation basics. At year 3 you get to really decide on more specialized subjects because most of the courses are "free pick" or can be replaced by "free pick" courses.

>Tfw failed basic algebra twice in high school

Shit isn't even that difficult if you just do the work.I was complete dogshit in math for the longest I can remember; all it really takes is disipline and dedication to get gud. Hell if you need to do the work 3 or 2 times whats stopping you.

It didn't take me that long to get through algebra in community college despite being awful at it.

It's not capitalism if people are forced to buy a good or service against their will.

Free markets in education work: look at Korean hagwon, Japanes juku, Chinese buxiban. Lots of choices and almost everyone can afford it because of competition. But when you throw in easy Federal loans to niggers, of course those schools will charge even more because the money is guaranteed by the most powerful military in the world.

It's a matter of the devotion to ethics counterbalancing the potential for profitability.

College isn't the best idea for everyone most of the time. Luring people in for useless courses is bad juju. It's bad for society to present the shit you meet up with people for at the library as a college course. It's bad to have Practical Witchcraft 101 or Practical Application Of Minecraft as college courses. But they do it. They do it to make more money by luring people into the college system.

They might have the capabilities, but they went for something else, due personal choice/circumstances. Some people are better at verbal or artistic endeavours, if they applied themselves they could learn some mathematics.. but what would be the point, can you tell me ?
Not everybody has the same needs in terms of what they need from academia, and not every academic institutions will offer the same things
Assuming everyone will be on researcher level will harm both the top and low elements, forcing them to go out of their way in what their initial aspirations are regarding education
If you do not think academia should handle the professional aspects of knowledge, feel free to pass that responsibility to corporations

>>134497332

It isn't about the ease of federal loans. It's about the leniency of the government when it comes to allowing colleges to get at that money.

Where I live, the kids who go to private schools are the most indoctrinated. My rural/suburban town is mostly conservative, but I had to listen to this one girl who goes to a private school a half hour away freak out when she heard someone doing an Italian accent on the radio, because it was clearly offensive to Italians.
