"What Every Student Should Know"

General education is a big part in what any particular student should know. However, something more specific is more applicable education. Its more like learning percent of compound interest over a fixed rate or how to pick out the best credit card for yourself by looking at apr's. It needs to be more applied and hands on knowledge for real world situations. But as a whole you not only need to know the information of interest rates, but you need to know the basics of the major subjects; math, composition, and biology. In all honesty education is extremely valuable to everybody who has the opportunity.
