20 Ideas The US Needs To Steal From The Rest Of The World

So yes. I did know what you were trying to say, but you didn't/ couldn't. I'm right, you're wrong. Again.

Does woody ever stand behind anything he says?
It always seem misconstrued from his end and he never means what he really meant. That is of course if he stands behind anything at all. I rarely see text of how he feels about certain issues.
Other than religion sucks.
Gays are awesome.
And global warming.
Does that pretty much sum up woody?

You give him too much credit....

They are good...if you cant keep them under control. I noticed you can't seem to.
-
when emotions dominate a person... and take the place of rational, logical appraisement of
reality, and is the sole mode of problem solving, it is a clear indication
that it is the innate psychological defense mechanism...
of hard core liberals.

But remember, fear is not an emotion....

I might be of some help on the matter of business/science majors learning new skills, having first done a mathematics course and then a finance masters. We had people from all backgrounds in the finance course, from chemical engineers to econ/MBAs, and as a trend (though not exclusively) the people from scientific backgrounds did better. It *is* a lot easier for someone from a STEM background to learn about debt/equity ratio, portfolio management and corporate finance than it is for someone from a pure business background to learn stochastic calculus and financial statistics.
Maybe I've slightly misinterpreted the argument here and if so I apologise, but there's my two penneth.

Anecdotal evidence time!!! Yes!!!
Okay, here's mine:
My Dental School class graduated 100 people. 80-85% were traditional biology, chemistry majors. We also had poly-sci, history, Econ, studio art (sculpture specifically- she killed it in wax carving class), graphic design, IT.
A microbiologist graduated #1 & a microbiologist graduated 100.

That's your anecdotal evidence time. When you look at a trend of a *business* school with a few thousand students over a couple of years, it becomes statistically significant.
-
And this is presumably the part where your 'anecdotal evidence' - a smaller sample from a dentistry school - is somehow more admissible than my 'anecdotal evidence' -a larger sample from a business school - on the subject of people learning business/finance from different backgrounds?
-
Yeah. You're right. My dental school only enrolled and graduated 1 class of 100 students.
Good catch!
-
That's all you're citing as any kind of evidence though? I mean, apart from just calling Woody stupid (and I'm not blaming you for that
) you've basically not discussed anything outside of your one graduate class?Incidentally, that's presumably a conversion course? I didn't realise those existed for dentistry, I would have thought it would require the full however many years.
-
It's a four year doctorate just like the other hundred dental schools in the States. We all enrolled at the same time, and graduated 4 years later, thus we are a "class"
I only like doing this because y'all (well woody infinitely more than you) gets very defensive over personal educational background.
This started because he made an "analogy-type" statement that would have been thrown out if it were found on any kind of standardized test (and likely prompted melt-downs of 15 yr old pre-STEM students across the US). I just voiced my qualm with it. And we all watched him demonstrate with words what a "blue screen" looks like on a human being.

When it comes to education, I tend to just pipe in when it gets relevant to me, like it did here, because I can add some value to the conversation, which I hope I did. It's a bit different over here, so it's sometimes useful to get a different perspective on things like this.
Didn't realise dentistry was also a post-graduate thing - what was your major, then?
-
The reason I never provided any evidence until now is because I actually agree with the argument/statement he thought he was making.
Instead, he made a statement didn't make any sense and I commented that it was A ridiculous statement. And next, Sparks and smoke

Econ & Biology
Haha
