My life sucks

University teaches to do education of children. University itself sucks at education of adults in university.



AI:

It sounds like you're expressing frustration with the quality of education at universities, particularly in how they handle adult learners. Universities often focus on theoretical knowledge rather than practical skills and may not always effectively cater to the diverse needs of adult students. Improving adult education at universities could involve more hands-on learning, better support systems, and teaching methods tailored to adult learners' experiences and responsibilities.

There should be another way than to take an intelligence test. Intelligence tests are written by college graduates. College is full of crap.

If the IQ test was written in Chinese, I’d fail every time. Those tests are inherently subjective and a person’s intellect can hardly be whittled down to a number.

Is there something specific you hope to achieve through your entrance into MENSA? I know you’d like to prove that you’re intelligent but would that be to get a job, start a family, or just to get the respect that you deserve?

Particularly in the USA, universities are a for-profit business. They create enormous amounts of student loan debt and have convinced the masses that the only way a young person can become an adult is through the doors of a college.

It’s complete crap if you asked me. There’s a huge difference between education and schooling. You can get either one without ever getting the other.
