>Going to a uni shit enough to have grade curves

I did, actually.

Calculus 1 faggot test that people shouldn't be having trouble on, 13 out of 19 failed.

Instructor curved it, but I led the class with 59 out of 60 points possible, so everyone gained 1 point and still failed.

fucking entry level classes man, how do they work?

I seriously hope you guys don't go have your intellects ruined at college just to get a worthless piece of paper saying you did so.

Not from America but even I know who Costanza is.

It's all about getting a qualification that employers will pay big money for.

Enjoy being the smartest hobo on the street.

>>3783591
So, wouldn't simple qualification tests eliminate this problem? Without putting ordinary people in tens of thousands of dollars of debt to become qualified as a nice little bonus?

You better hope that for some reason they place every single one of the applicants in qualification tests, and completely ignore all of their CVs too.

Stop being a lazy idiot, get a degree.

He's an importer exporter but sometimes an architect.

I thought he was a marine biologist? That's why he's posted on /sci/ all the time.

>Stop being a lazy idiot, get a degree.
He won't, because then he'd have to face the reality is not really that smart.

>>3783623
>You better hope that for some reason they place every single one of the applicants in qualification tests
Which is so much less efficient than placing every single applicant through years of costly education, amiright?

>Stop being a lazy idiot, get a degree.
As soon as the U.S. gets its head out of its ass and stops making a degree more costly to get than brain surgery.
