Why do people think that public schools are preparing kids for the 'real world'?The real world does not consist of people stuck in crowded rooms with other people the same age for 8 hours a day,nor does it consist of people getting beatup after work for wearing glasses.this is not the real world.Also,whats wrong with home schooling?okay,so public school kids get to sit around with other kids the same age,without being allowed to talk to eachother,for the majority of the day. oh wow.Home schoolers can actually interact to different people,instead of just teachers, principals, and bulleys.Now,being beat up doesen't help kids prepeare for the real world either.Whoever thinks that is oviously never been bulleyed,or is a bulley.Do you think that geeks(kids with huge glasses and retaners)are going to look back at they're school years with fondness, and be able to tell they're kids how nice public school is? no.Kids who get picked on get they're spirits crushed and beaten.

if a college class is failed, does it matter how badly? for example if i got a (50) in a course would it be different from getting a (12). or would i simply be assinged a letter grade, in this case an F.

How would it affect my overall gpa, would it make a difference?
Also if i retook my class would it get averaged out with the "F"? or with the actual #grade that i got the first time?

thanks

A white male would not allow a young black girl or mixed girl to have sex because she is a virign and if he did allow her to have sex, it would be with him and him alone. And to this day why do men like virgins so much and they get excited when you tell a man that you are a virign?

Someone answered a question and said, "those with a real major, business majors need not apply." What? Was this person just putting themselves above others to make themselves feel better or do others think the same way?

This is a weird question, but I've been arguing about the answer with a number of people, so I want an answer.

Is ecstasy used in clubs for like raves to keep you up all night? Like, I always thought it was what ravers used to stay up and dance for never ending hours.

Or is it used as the date rape drug?

So pretty much, does it give you a high or does it knock you out?

I am muslim, and in 8th grade. In my school district, islamic hoidays are never counted as excused absences, while jewish holidays are...also, during islamic holidays, there is always lots of homework, while on jewish holidays there is no homework. I don't think this is fair...and my jewish friends dont think it is fair either...why are the jewish holdiays respected more? By the way, there are an equal amount of jews and muslims in my school...about 15 of each out of the 1000 in my school. Why do you think this is? and what should we do about it? By the way, i am completely respecting all religions.
