According to statistics, only about 60% of students complete their graduation and get their bachelor’s degree.
And this does not mean the other 40% ended badly. In today’s competitive world, higher education does not promise you success. Lately, we’ve been hearing more stories of self-taught entrepreneurs that didn’t waste any time and conquered the world, while others were studying in college.
We follow global trends and want to understand why higher education is slowly depreciating nowadays.
Higher education costs a lot of money and graduates seek a high-paying job to pay off their debts. But the big problem is, a lot of companies only hire people with work experience.

A lot of successful people are examples of it, like Bill Gates and Julian Assange. They learned programming languages from textbooks or online lessons and immediately put their knowledge into practice. Sometimes people who spend 4 or 5 years studying at a university are less knowledgeable than those who are not much educated.
