General "Waste of Time" Studies.

Have I ever mentioned General Studies?

... Have I ever mentioned what a complete waste of time it is?

I don't mean to start 2012 off on this blog in a negative tone, but I have one of two exams in this dog bollocks subject on Tuesday. Will I prepare for it? Possibly only with a quick skim over my study material. Why? Because what good is it, really?

For anyone taking an essay subject at A-Level, you will become objective and unbiased in your evaluation of content and ideas. For anyone taking maths or science, you will develop a much more logical and objective mind anyway. And considering my college offers the opportunity to broaden one's knowledge and thinking skills through extra-curricular enrichment subjects such as 'Critical Thinking', why does General Studies, which is basically testing your ability to argue, really need to be necessary?

Thanks, it doesn't.
