It's a bit better depending on the state you're in, PF, although I had a huge problem with the school system in VA because they tailored it around those goddamn standardized tests, which effectively dumbed everything down since we were taught how to take a multiple choice quiz, not how to synthesize information.

It's why I wish there was slightly more federal influence on public schooling than state influence.
