STEM graduates are morlocks. The US trains people to manage them.

Maybe that's why they count those. Mexico is tarded as fuck
>>51764200
We have alot of engineers here,mostly because THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THEY ARE DOING...
>>51764641
>THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THEY ARE DOING...
my life
>>51764659
and it's pretty much the hardest ''course'' in tertiary university...
>>51764641
are they really engineers or is that a broad term like in mexico?
>>51764200
Brazil should be in the Top 10 minimum. We have one of the most advanced sciences in the world.
>>51764200
still have higher GDP/capita lmao
>>51764743
No,at the end they choose civil engineering,management engineering,etc...
It gets specific...
>>51764590
>>51764590
Nope. They only get a title that makes them able to work because most can't pay for a private school, or they can't enter into the public universities due to it's high demand. If you want an actual engineer/whatever title you need to go to the university.

I understand that mexico does have real engineers, those who go to university. But this guy was legit and proudly boasting how his dad went to a 2 year program after high school and got his diploma.
I'm guessing it's like a 2 year community college degree here, but much shittier.

I'm the 73% and it's shameful.

That guy was either lying, retarded or simply ignorant.
He was probably talking about this, or something similar.

But they don't get en engineer title, they just are able to work in the lower branches of their diciplines.
>>51765192
Ah so I checked out your link and it said they're like vocational schools.
I figure that it was something like that, because his dad couldn't do basic algebra.

You are being embarrassing desu.

There's a simple reason why portugal and greece are in the top 10. If your country is in the shitter you aren't in the position to blow your future and your parents cash in feminist tapdancing studies.
I mean, people barely get by with enough to eat without one
>>51764200
tfw no STEM autist
If the US had the same rates, we'd have too many and unemployment would be high in those fields
>>51764200
So we're down with the Netherlands and Norway? Cool
>>51764200
>tfw studying both Medicine and Philosophy.
Im both a STEMfag and a useless peace of garbage
