gollark: A lot of the chemistry and physics stuff we do at school is... somewhat interesting at first, but we end up going over it again and again and doing endless worksheets for some reason, which is not very interesting.
gollark: They might actually be actively negative in some areas, since for quite a lot of people being forced to learn the boring stuff they don't care about will make them ignore the interesting bits.
gollark: Personally I figure that schools are wildly inefficient at actually transmitting knowledge and skills anyway, so meh.
gollark: It would just be exam revision for me at school, being year 11, so not much actual learning anyway.
gollark: Yes, but they do *sometimes* confiscate them and it would be a hassle to have to pick it up again later.
