@booger4627 Yeah, I absolutely do not know him lmao. I meant rather how I picked up on him hating to lose when it's a solo thing. Like on a stream, he said that's why he no longer wanted to play chess. He would get too hard on himself.
I remember teachers telling me "What about when you don't have a calculator on you? when growing up. Another great one was, "You'll need to know cursive."
My primary school taught us solely in cursive and I still write that way now at 25. It's always a handy skill to have because it's much faster than writing in block form.
Good thing American schools teach us all the skills we need to function as an adult, like the part where they teach us to do our legally required taxes, great class!
@@2oqhthere are schools that do, but they offer it as an elective. the kids never choose it because students say “they will never use it” and “it’s boring!” or “it’s too hard for an elective”
at 12:54 im not sure if its as a joke or not but they pointed to the wrong part to show charlie was wrong. they point to his addition (assumingly thinking he was trying to do subtraction) instead of the fact that he thought 47-22 is 15 and not 25.
This isn’t really fair to Charlie. He needed test accommodations. Where’s the separate room and extended time limit? His teachers aren’t very inclusive if you ask me…😔
Hah! Funny but also not funny realistically speaking. I get 50% more time on everything and access to computers during my tests and exams due to an ADHD diagnosis. People ask why I get more time for everything when I don’t really need it at the end of the day. Sometimes feels unfair.
They should do this again but as a game show with declining measures of success: right answer, closest answer, closest answer without going over, true/false
this video is proof that what you learn in school has 0 bearing on your future aside from a qualification from a place that you pay them for the possible opportunity to have a career
13:27 This just made me frustrated that you guys don't use the metric system. Why the heck would I know a yard has 36 inches? That's just a random number. On the other hand, if you know "centi" means 10^-2 (divided by 100), then it's immediate that 1 centimeter = 10^-2 meters (or 100 centimeters = 1 meter, multiplying both sides by 100). Granted, it's easier to remember that if you speak a Latin language (for example, one hundred in Spanish is "cien", which has the same root as "centi"), but there are a few words in English that also have the same root, like centenary, percent ("per hundred"), and cent (1$ = 100 cents).
I also guessed heart for what mice, crabs and spiders have in common 9:20 Googling it though, crabs don't have hearts. The correct answer seems to be lungs.
I made it through school without ever learning long division. I would just bullshit my way through math, either finding a way to cheat or just guessing on stuff I didn’t know. I made it through school easily with okay grades without ever studying or doing anything involving school work at home.
I hated math but doing long division was my favorite. I don't why it was so fun, we didn't use it alot but we had to re-learn it in senior year for computer science.
In massachusetts it's the MCAS and we all used to call it "massachusetts child abuse system" so it's nice to see florida also has their own child abuse
I mean, school teaches you an average of all human knowledge, and both of them work on a job where this knowledge isn't used. Do this test with someone that work in a field very demanding, like a biologist or an engineer and you will see the difference. That is why most people are "dumber" than a 5 grader.
That limestone question is hilarious it literally says “WATER MOVING THROUGH THE GROUND” gives you three options above ground and one below ground and they both got it wrong 😂😂😂
Charlie is still the smartest person on the internet, regardless of any tests results. These tests can't even come close to challenging his true potential.
lol... btw... academic knowledge and IQ are non-correlative... while those with a higher IQ tend to do better on tests like this, one who does not score well doesn't necessarily have a lower or average IQ...
This is true, but this guy is too scared to leave his house and all he knows is the world of the interwebs. Basically lives in a bubble. I wouldn't consider him intelligent in terms of IQ or real life knowledge tbh. He is good at wordplay though, which all the kids find impressive.@@rdskew
The minimum number of whole days question is flawed. Their answer is correct, but 56 is also a correct answer as the problem didn't specify that she couldn't spend partial days towards her goal, it only specified that you weren't to consider them in your answer. The least number is 56 whole days (plus a partial day which you don't include). Not saying 56 is the better answer, but it *is* a valid one and should be accepted. I would have gotten my teachers to accept it unless they were bad teachers. This kind of thing comes up a lot in math if you're paying attention.
