YOU’RE DOING QUADRATICS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL?’

[–] [email protected] 113 points 5 months ago (16 children)

Yes, that's standard at least in Germany

That's nuts. In the US the only high school math I was taught was algebra and geometry. Anything more advanced than that was for students in the "gifted" program. No wonder why Americans are so stupid.

Maybe you were just at a bad school? Quadratic equations are mandatory in Germany even for the lowest level of graduation.

Until my Abitur (12th grade) I learned about equations, stochastics, integrals and derivatives, vector stuff, etc.
