and it's not even about the readings...lol you just don't get it. inevitably, it will fail because it attempts to simplify complex human thoughts and cognitive processes.
although not all bodies of knowledge in that category are pseudoscientific, a large part of it is, just click any random article on here.

and you're assuming that i even do the readings

I give up. You don't address any of the points I make and just keep repeating your belief that university is overrated because of some idea that academic research or social science is "invalid" and are pseudosciences and thus students don't learn and it stifles creativity etc.
Those studies and theories in the link you provided, they all have their critics and flaws and you know what? That's how knowledge is created. There is no one definite theory, its an ongoing process of discovering and learning. Remember that it was once accepted that the world was flat. Clearly we are better off knowing that that is BS. Maszlow's Hierarchy is wrong and guess what, we now know that it is wrong and can move on to a better theory.
So you didn't do the readings and are now complaining about the value of your education? Maybe the problem isn't with the university, maybe the problem is with the student.
edit: macroeconomics cannot be tested in the real world? Really?
