Solving test questions well doesn’t necessarily translate into productive outcomes in the real world.

So education is useless?

  • Humans learn in the side effect of education, nobody is busting out some poor method that schools teach to solve antiquated problems in the real world.

  • No, more like the average can be more important than some outlier's impact, at least for steady progress. So while you do need the Mozart and Einstein, a more productive effort would be to raise the general population's education level.
