This thread still going huh
was just thinking the other day, I used to bunk off P.E. and go study maths towards the end of my final year of school. Much better use of my time
Jdub, you have a good point. Its fashionable now to go study art and media related subjects; many college's and universities may well fall through if they didn't have the large amount of those students paying their fees! Few people have a desire to study maths and sciences, mostly because they are A) taught bad from an early age, B) don't know what these subjects do for us in the real world and C) can't be bothered to put in a bit of effort to understand something a bit challenging
