    Very Smart. Skip as many grades as possible. The real "tournament" starts *AFTER* academics end.

      vandertuber as a non-native speaker, what does "grade" mean in this context?

    • @vandertuber

      grade, in this context, just means "year of study", such as grade 1, 2, 3, ... 12. In the USA the first grade starts at age 5/6 and ends with grade 12 at age 17/18.

    The problem with college is that is started with a good educational curriculum THAT ONLY EDUCATES AND ENLIGHTENS, NOT BRAINWASHES AND INDOCTRINATES.
    All textbooks were DE-PROFESSIONALIZED AND SUPER-SIMPLIFIED to the point that anyone with the required "HIGH QUALITY ELEMENTARY BASIC EDUCATIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS" can understand for the textbooks were properly written in an ultra-simplified way without losing the ORIGINAL MAIN GISTS-ELEMENTS of the context, content, intent, and interpretation of their lessons and subjects that they were and are meant to teach and to be taught to students.
    All textbooks and teachers teaching books and lessons are all integrated together as one single body of knowledge from kindergarden, to prep, to grades 1 to 7, to 1st year to 4th year high school, to 1st year to 4th year college.
    We once teach all students on how to use on what they have learned from kindergarden to learn prep, then teach them how to use kindergarden and prep to learn grade 1, then teach then how to use use kindergarden, prep, and grade 1 to learn grade 2, and this process keeps on going until they have FINISHED 4TH YEAR COLLEGE. Because all are integrated then they know how to combine all knowledge and learning skills and learning techniques as one single body of LIVING KNOWLEDGE which will continuously keep evolving in their minds which will make them creative, inventive, innovative, SELF-SMARTENING UP, "THE WORKS!".
    All textbooks are generic and standardized BUT AT THE SAME TIME MADE TO BE FLEXIBLE AND UPGRADEABLE ONLY IF IT IS NECESSARY AND PASSES THE TESTS IMPOSED ON THEM BY BOTH THE PARENTS AND TEACHERS COMBINED. Then any upgrades-improvements is printed and added as an external supplementary and complimentary improvements in the form as an external attachment to any textbooks with the instructions on which chapter and/or page they are connected to.
    Any addition is printed and added as an external attachment to any textbooks with the instructions on which chapter and/or page they are connected to MUST BE DONE IN SUCH A WAY WITHOUT ALTERING THE ORIGINAL EDITION OF THE TEXTBOOKS AND TEACHERS TEACHING MANUAL BOOKS THEMSELVES.

    IRONIC. Peter Thiel now has the Peter Thiel foundation which prizes $100k to an entrepreneur in college (22yrs old or under) willing to drop out to work on his company.
