The amount of studying, homework, internships, etc that students in certain disciplines (eg engineering) have to put in to get good grades is almost insane. It's exacerbated by the requirements colleges put on them to take crap like “core diversity” and “social understanding” courses that have no basis in their major. Imagine how frustrating it is to be studying engineering and having to waste precious time on essays and social studies about gay tiger shrimp and Shakespearean albino empowerment.

My oldest who is 17 years old is at high school and then going to college full time and doing a part time job at Winn Dixie.
He hopes to leave high school with a AA.

some of the classes he has to take to get this degree is ridiculous.

tthat is why they make everyone take the crap courses to keep someone in a job otherwise there would be no one taking them unless forced to.
