Curious thought process... we spend about 12-20 years of our life going at a specific pace to learning "stuff" in different categories. What if you were given a choice - Learn the stuff in a class in 12-20 years of wasted time OR just have a list of all the material you must know, along with sample questions (so you know you're learning the right material) and have a venue to turn in work (so you get feedback). But instead of spending 12-20 (or more) years, you are given the choice to do whatever pace you want. So in that sense, could really fast people basically "Doogie Howser" it and start a career by 15?
And possibly a related question - instead of doing ANY higher learning activities, we push all that into vocations - basically if you want to be a rocket scientist you ... start being a rocket scientist intern, learn the trade by being a peon in the shops?
