Today's Education Is A Mess

Education in today's world is truly a mess. School, college, university, etc, is actually psychologically designed to teach you how to follow orders and get in line - not how to prepare and set you for the real world and how to successful build your career. In my experience, private schools aren't significantly better than public schools. Yes, they might have slightly better scores etc, but the entire system fails because of it's failed principle of standardization. Not everyone is the same, like those in control would like us to believe. The true world powers have no interest in giving the people thinking skills, just basic skills to do slave jobs. This is why standardization is everywhere. Every single school in every developed nation that I know of dedicates its resources to making sure students meet standards... rather than cultivating actual thinking and problem solving skills. No doubt, they say they are teaching critical thinking and problem solving skills, but in reality, that is not what takes place in the class room, regurgitation - that's all it is. Students do well by memorizing book facts and rewriting them on exam papers.
