God damn. Very understandable though. Looking at it now on ddg, and I see why the UK population has a greater IQ than the American pop.
Don't @ me Americans. I'm American too. Just stating facts
LOL! I got my Master's in America, and I can honestly say, I don't think American's are stupid. However, British education is very specialised and streamlined, whereas American education is more comprehensive and wholesome. You don't get the same college experience in the UK. I'd argue each system has it's pros and cons xD
Generally speaking, I wish our education system was more streamlined. There are a lot of core/standardized curriculum classes that aren't necessary, or even relevant.

On the flip side, some people have found their calling by taking classes they never would have opted to take, thanks to the core classes system. Then again, it doesn't benefit everyone. I believe you would have been suited to the faster, UK route.

What happened? - GreyHatter - 09-11-2020
As someone who is finally getting their bachelors but having to take my level 499 with a level 100 chemistry class - I have to agree that it should be more steam lined. I want to focus on my MVC lay out instead of remembering hg don’t hug mecury.
It’s going to cut into CTF time for sure - welcome back! I am also back
