GPA is a flawed system if nobody has the time during the year

What? Read the books. If you go to college and aren't doing your own reading on top of your coursework then you aren't going to last in your field anyway.

what did he mean by this?

I hope you realize thats more or less just an encyclopedia and nothing special on its own. You can literally read all of that shit online and not have to deal with all of the significantly outdated portions of the book.

this. people who are interested in what they are studying will succeed. those who arnt will inevitably fail at some point in their careers.

Yeah, that's actually not true at all. Your coursework is more than enough, and in many cases and at the good programs, even too much. You should be focusing on learning what is taught while in undergrad - it's why the curriculum is designed by field experts and professionals and not know-it-alls on 4chan posting required reading lists.

You must be a massive brainlet and/or normie if you have no time to read through the day

Yea then how come technological advancements always happen in the market rather than schools. Academia is good for ideas but not so much for application.

>if nobody has the time during the year to actually read hard books
If $falsething, then $unlikelyresult.

People (other than you) have time to do extra reading on top of the coursework. If your GPA is falling enough to hurt you, then you should probably be concentrating on your coursework anyway.

>school is perfect knowledge dont learn anything else in the world!
a nice bait post. maybe if you read some books youd correct yourself

No. You won't know shit unless you put the work in and are active in your field.

The course is a guideline with base minimal requirements. You should be reading into further depth of everything you go over, in your own time as well as doing your own work/projects.
