Schools are great. Chasing a degree is great, don't get me wrong.

But let's address the elephant in the room.

There's a bunch of stuff in the real world that schools won't teach. Primary. Secondary. Tertiary.

Things like:
How to make money
How to network for success
How to start a business and scale

There's so much emphasis on passing exams and little on the bigger picture, life. This is why a lot of people graduate and still don't feel fulfilled. Let's not even talk about the unemployment rate.

So.

What do you think schools should teach, that is never talked about?

1. Common Sense
2. Financial Independence after school.

Not exams! exams! exams.....!!!
At the end, most graduates end up becoming a liability to themselves and those close to them.

Please start learning how to figure out life on your own while in school. The world outside your school fence is getting more difficult/very competitive as days goes by.

Entrepreneurship and and any useful skill of your choice.

Doggy style.

You're absolutely right.

Nowadays, people can without a degree live a very comfortable life if they know what they're doing.

Time spent in school is time you cannot get back unfortunately. Don't think the school system will change. It is the job of every student to adjust.

Unfortunately, you'd learn this outside school most of the time.
