Time Management.

Before college I really didn't manage my time at all. Most people in high school don't need to anyways. You required to go to school. I don't really understand why the government still educates children the way they do. I guess they figure forcing education on someone will make them a more educated person. Well I think most people don't learn by just memorizing facts. Education must be mostly learned threw they person thinking threw problems. In high school its all memorization for the most part. I had a few classes that required problem analyzes to get a solution. The main problem in high school is they don't give you enough time to think about problems. You have to go to 7 or 8 classes a day which is quite insane when you think about it. I personally think that you can learn more from one complex problem then several small insignificant problems. Solving a complex time while doing other task requires time management. This is what college forces you to do. They give you just enough information to go a decipher for personal benefit. After you are given that information you have a certain amount of time to go threw and try to make sense of it. In high school it is pretty much straight forward. There is not much thought that you have to put in to figure out a concept because it is broken down to such a low level. For some topics I suppose that would be a good thing. But ultimately you should have a greater understanding of a concept. If you only know the ground level of a topic then how can you ever expect to apply it in everyday life. For example 2 + 2 is 4. Obviously but, what are you going to do with that knowledge. A very simple way to apply it would be. I ate to apples on Tuesday and another two on Thursday. I ate 4 apples this week. Yeah its really basic but when you start learning multiple topics they will change your life depending on the scope of your knowledge. High schools should have less classes per day and allow more free time to think instead of cramming information into the minds of the youth.
