Math.
All you need to know is just how to add and subtract, and with calculators all math problems aren't even problems, all schools need to do is teach someone how to use a calculator, and once you get into high school all they teach you is useless math junk you'll never use in the real world.
Even with some of the best jobs, do you think you need to know algebra to do surgery or something?
Another one is social studies, the world's history shouldn't be one of the main subjects your taught, English and Grammer is really the only subject that's useful.
 
Algebra is useful. Calculus... not so much unless it's related to your job.

Algebra isn't useful in most jobs.
Once I got into high school I pretty much started zoning out during math, Algebra doesn't help me in my job goals at all.
All I need to know is how to draw, write, and know about buisness.
 
Mega... Being taught maths is used in everything... Literacy you need to count. English/Other Language You must learn basic math
Science you need math or you might kill urself
so on and so on
 
Algebra is very basic logic needed in many everyday things.

If you don't know how to find x in 5x = 10 as an adult... you are going to have some serious problems!

BASIC math yes, addition, subraction, fractions, and things like that are useful, but all the complicated math isn't useful unless you want to be a teacher or something...
And goal Enlgish isn't useless.

They have calculators for all types of math problems you know.

X = 2

I LOVE ALGEBRA

Stop worrying about Algebra though. Basic Algebra is as easy as addition once you use it a lot.

Not if you have a good machine.
My brain isn't good at math anyway because it's very forgetful.
I forgot my multiplication and division somewhere after like third grade I think?
I'm not sure if I even remember addition and subraction.
 
Anyway, on topic... I can see the importance in most of the subjects... but the way most public schools teach them is horrible. I at least know that my brain was corrupted in History.

I find it ridiculous that you can't use books and calculators on tests, I mean once you get a job and stuff you can just pick up a book or a calculator.
