How do the UK and US high school and college systems compare?

It is generally stated that the UK system is more disciplined while has more structure and the US system enforces more creative, personal, and "out of the box" thinking. However, is there any specific reason on system may be better than the other? #college #higher-education #secondary-education

I am already proficient in the use of AutoCAD and SketchUp, and have some experience with SolidWorks. I was wondering if there were any other programs like them that I should try to learn how to use that would be helpful in the future. #engineer

As an engineer, how often do you have to find integrals and take derivatives when working on a project?

Do you think the increase in administrative jobs and decrease in faculty jobs at specific institutions show a weakness in that specific school?

I have just read an article saying that the college I am attending had less faculty jobs than years before. This worries me slightly and will hamper my goals to get that job I want in life. #teaching #teacher #students
