Had to retake reading comprehension 3 times for our state! And yea there are three tiers Standard- the rowdy bad kids with gang members, pregnant ladies and fights Honors - regular kids who go to community or regular college AP - smart kids who go to college and have advanced degrees later All that rap battle practice and still failing reading comprehension... Again shame you got stuck in that situation. Sounds like you were in a bad neighborhood and the teachers got an inevitable case of the fuck its when they try to teach very basic skills you need to succeed in the world and the students are more interested in rap battles, dance offs and being pregnant. --- If you don't have anything nice to say, say it on the internet. ****poster Extraordinaire <cite>EdgeMaster posted [p:904353399] in Do people ...

She asked if I had a degree and I said I had a Bachelors in Computer Science and Economics. A moment later she said something about how it was cool that we had the same degree. I didn't correct her because I didn't want to be an arrogant elitist, but yeah, they definitely are not the same thing at all. lol Unless you went to a top uni the chances of your degrees being more alike than not are quite high. Lol no Theres a reason ITT tech is out of business and being sued now The reason they're going out of business is because they lied about how many people got jobs from them after they graduated. The truth is they will admit basically fucking anybody even complete morons, run them through the ringer for 2 (or more) years while sucking their student loans dry and give them a diploma when they've got no skills to back it up. Then they wonder why they can't find a job. It basically only worked out for people who were already smart and went there, exempted themselves from everything via CC transfers / test outs, and graduated with 1/10th the debt that other students did. That wasn't a strategy they advertised however because it doesn't make them as much money. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:904353858] in Do people ...

I really need to get on those (I'm still stuck with basic tech support, though I'm about to finally move from the helpdesk to full tech support in a week). But I didn't go right from college to the trade school; I was pretty much a NEET for two years after while I was throwing out a bunch of retail applications and figuring out what to do with my life. My parents weren't too happy about it, either.
