Education system needs more

Education systems that we are conditioned to believe in, are inadequate in getting the practical knowledge that is required to get things done efficiently. I am not taking it all as a whole but I lot of it.  Students work hard for heir grades, get their degrees and certificates and apply for jobs they want but even then they are dependents. They have to depend on the company giving them the job.

If we take it in today’s context, so many big companies are in a mess financially. There are more of a giant who has to survive any how, so the govt has to support them by pumping in money. Economy is in a bad shape. People are being kicked off from their job left and right. A few of the people I know have taken up jobs which are a far cry from what they are capable of. A person who holds an engineering degree from a good college and was working as an engineer has to settle down being an electrician.

This is what I am pointing to. No education will teach you how to tackle this situation. I am feeling bad because this was the story of my close friend and we don’t know how many similar storied are there that we don’t know about. It was the money and the time he spent on getting his degree. I just hope that things get better  and people get what they deserve but that will take some time, could be a couple of years. I know for a fact that in America, the standard of education is still quite good as compared to a lot of other countries but we really need a more practical education system.
