The problem with school curriculum is its unnatural way of grouping subjects. It’s based on an assembly line approach that’s unfit for human brains. Real life problems don’t present themselves in a clean cut mode, different areas are mingled together all at once. It’s hard to learn math when you don’t have the contexts, it’s hard to gain Excel skills if there is no real model to work on, it’s hard to learn quant finance if you don’t understand the math behind.
