[quote=SHESGOTTOBE,385402]Whatever the subject is, it all depends on the student. Memorization is important, but it is also important to apply the knowledge. It is also important to think of ideas and think outside the box. My guess is that the problem in American education system is not the schools but the students themselves. I see this all the time. They would rather party, play sports, show off their new shoes/clothes/car than study. I do not know of any other country in the world where a studious student is bullied and labeled as a nerd except in America. Fast forward, the nerds and the geeks are the ones who innovate and become rich/successful. Read: Microsoft's Bill Gates, Apple's Steve Jobs, Amazon's Jeff Bezos. In Asia, nerds are revered. The most popular kids in schools are the ones who won the most medals in Quiz Bees, Spelling Bees, Science Fairs and Math Competitions. In America, the most popular boy is the one who can kick/grab the ball. The most popular girl is the school's bimbo/cheerleader. The heck?!?[/quote]
