Its because math is used as test material. Thats all it is in american educations and many others i might add. Its a fucking crime. All of science and almost everying else is treated similarly. They build tests into the material you are to learn. At the end of the day you get a monstrosity. I say that if we are going to try to hide iq tests inside the material then we should have no qualms about simply giving everyone iq tests separately from learning material. Yes there are flaws with that proposal but it would still be better than what we have now where all of the material is molested. Imagine if people actually got a thorough education. No more grtting to the job only to learn that they didnt teach you what you need to know. In computer science this problem is fucking atrocious.
