That is why I find Myers-Briggs useful: SP [Sensing/Perceiving] types do not like sitting still and passively learning via lecture. (The SJ [Sensing/Judging] types love it - and most teachers are SJs.)
SPs prefer being active, especially with their hands. The pure types go become soldiers, artisans, athletes, racecar drivers, airplane pilots.
SPs do much better in a trade-school environment, especially with apprenticeship. That approach was almost completely eliminated in America.
It was eliminated on purpose to close the original achievement gap between boys and girls. But they were too successful and now girl FAR outperform boys at every level including the colleges in which girls far outnumber boys now.
