9. I can believe it.
In the school I used to teach at Math and English have been given a double period every day. All of the other classes have been reduced to 30 minute periods, and if it is a special schedule they are reduced to 20 to make sure Math and English aren't effected. This idea that English and Math are the only important subjects has gone too far. These testing zealots have no idea what a well rounded education is. Their only concern is the eventual killing off public education.
