What are you going to do when you are out of school, need a break and those nice summer vacations are gone?

& yes I know it totally gives you the fundamentals of why everything you're taught is the way it is. That is why some professors really insist on learning the derivations for some formulas and theories. I'm not saying that those should be taught, I just feel we would have more benefit of learning at least a bit more on how we would apply these things to different scenarios & problems. |

Then too, tools change but the underlying stuffed doesn't typically. If you know what it's doing, you just have to learn how apply the tool... not relearn how to do whatever it is you thought you could do. IMO this is the right way to teach. Otherwise it's like claiming you can drive your C7 when you've just got all the nannies on. Also, discovering applications teaches you to stretch... being handed them can close your mind to new ideas. |

I am 36...about halfway done with my Master's in Healthcare Administration and an MBA (Dual Master's Program).
I am a full-time worker and a full-time student. I am carrying a 4.0. I am actually making money while going to school because of the G.I. Bill from my Army enlistment. The reason I am doing fine? I am more mature and focused than I was when I was in my teens and my early 20s. I didn't start my Bachelor's until I was 32 or 33? I don't want to shit all over the OP. But I do get tired of hearing how hard shit is. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE HARD. It is supposed to prepare you for the "Real World". Yes, you can have crappy teachers etc. But you can have crappy managers as well. EDIT: After reading more of the Thread...the OP just seems to be blowing off steam and he is still trucking! Keep on kicking ass OP! And don't feel bad watching people fail out of their "Gender Studies" and other SJW Majors. |

Read above...also my Master's is kinda easy for me because I have been a part of this work force since 1999. I actually understand what is being taught and have RL experience to draw upon. TCoat whatya said really applies to everything. |
