[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In other countries-once you pick a major, you study to become/work in that industry. There aren’t many if any general courses. Undergrad is almost like the equivalent of undergrad and grad/professional school. [/quote] this. My son’s friend went to college in Germany studying Mech Eng. Her first class was thermodynamics. No Bs fluff classes, just straight to the meat. Apparently the same if you want to become a doctor. No undergrad crap. Straight to doctor stuff .[/quote] But Germany also culls its class at age 12-13 where only a small percentage go on a college track. I don't think we really want to replicate that.[/quote]
