Asian countries, why the fuck do you guys have school for like 10-12 hours a day, when people can only really learn for 3-5 at best?

I'm pretty polymath and self taught. And if you're studying properly your mind starts to wander after hour 3, after hour 5 you basically tap out. You can intermix it with exercise and squeeze some more out, but you reach serious diminishing returns and from what I gather Asian countries don't really exercise much at school.

You can do assignments for 8-12 hours a day, but that's not learning, that's just labour. Actual learning has a pretty clear 3-5 hour limit. When you look at the study habits of the actual cerebral elite, like say Schopenhauer or Mozart, they aren't pushing beyond that 3-5 hour range.

And your schoolwork doesn't seem that much harder than what's taught here. I don't see what the point is to all that study, are you even studying?

That sounds like a bunch of cope. I was able to pull a decent 12-13 hours of study a day during my high school

It’s preparation for an adulthood of wagecucking.

public schools only last half a day (usually divided into two shifts 7-12 or 1-5)

it's private schools that go on to do the whole day class (7-4) and only because it has bunch of tacked on subjects to justify their tuition fee. shit like theology/moral values and various electives like home accounting and workshop

Nobody important knows your name and they never will.

Well it seems to be working for them. All the various hippy methods to turn school into daycare that the west is pushing haven't really done much apart from making each generation more and more stupid.

I can do a decent 12-13 hours of assignments, if I had to, and not enjoy it. Same way I wouldn't enjoy digging a trench for 12-13 hours. But actually learning new concepts does seem to have that built in limit. Otherwise we'd see the cerebral elite actually pumping out 12-13 hours of learning, but their study habits are pretty easy to google. They seem to follow the same pattern I follow, 3-5 hour units of study separated by extensive walks and long lunches.

sounds like you're a brainlet if you need to study that long everyday at high-school level
