What are the advantage and disadvantage of core curriculum?

Answer 1

Able to explore different majors

Answer 2

An advantage of core curriculum (math, science, social studies, and English) is that it gives you knowledge about a variey of subjects and makes you a more well-rounded person, who has knowledge in a variety of subjects. In college, having a core curriculum, which usually takes 2 years to complete, gives a student a period of time to choose a major, though specific courses needed for that major from core curriculum may not be the ones the student has chosen.

Answer 3

Well, honey, the advantage of a core curriculum is that it provides a well-rounded education and ensures students have a broad knowledge base. On the flip side, the disadvantage is that it can limit flexibility and individualized learning, leaving some students feeling bored or unchallenged. So, it's like a double-edged sword, but hey, at least you'll know a little bit about everything!

Answer 4

The disadvantage of core curriculum, which is Math, Science, Social Science, and English, is that you take most of these courses in high school, but colleges go more in depth with these subjects whereas high school gives a gist. Let's say you go to a University/four year college and are undecided. You have a lot of time to choose a major because the first two years of college is mostly completing core classes, but it can be very helpful to choose a major because each major has its own prerequisites (core curriculum) that relates to it solely. The reason for this is said to make a more well-rounded student, knowledgeable in different areas, and to refresh and reinforce the information learned in high school.
