Lol top comment talks about that.

"Lupe obviously doesn't mean that kids will never use basic math. Of course people will. What he is criticizing is, for instance, how education systems now have math programs only focused evaluating performance on standardized tests for things like Geometry/Trigonometry, which is information/skills that most people don't use after high school/college. Instead, why not teach them about how to improve their environment, or how stocks, credit, and banks work?"

Saw that shit on YouTube, that person explained it well.

lupe is an idiot in this.
the system knows they will most likely not use this information, but its about testing the kids as students, and sadly enough, its not about what you learn, its about what the letter is on the report card that gets you somewhere. lupe says we dont need english? um. i dont even know how to respond.
and history is important, history repeats itself, and if noone knew history, we'd all be fucked

you only need English to a certain extent... when you graduate how much of that stuff you learned at school are you going to use? not a lot.

yeah but you dont want to sound not intellegent when you speak to other people, write resumes, letters to your boss
and its not about what you will and wont use after school, its about the competitiveness between students that make them develop work ethics, and skills. and in the real world, its about the grade and your gpa, not what you do or do not know
