Trying to my insurance license, I have learn a shit turn of martial so I can at least get a 70 on a test. That all they care about. On top of that once your license they don’t care what your score is. Lady teaching this course said that she knew a lady failed that test 16 times before passing.
But also 15% to 20% of what your tested on and is the hardest to learn is commercial. And 99% of what you learn won’t be relevant. My former boss at State Farm said that to me. Says we don’t do things the way you will be taught. But couldn’t tesch me their way until I was license.

Modern educational practices have been moving toward skill-based metrics, as in “you should be able to achieve this standard” in order to pass a class (and gets scored on a rubric that reflects skills, rather than some arbitrary “minus 0.5 points for spelling”). As always however, what is best for students is often at odds with what’s achievable in the way schools are designed and funded in a society.
