This f-ed up education system

This education system is ed up. Why are we made to learn so many things that can't even be remotely applied anywhere. Now before you guys go ape- on me, I mean seriously junk stuff. 

 

(a) discuss: 
 (i) large scale mutant screening using multipurpose minitransposon (mTn) technology and 
how analysing the effect of gene knockout can be used to characterise cellular roles of 
proteins (principle of the mTn technology and the downstream analytical approach in 
terms of screening of mutants and analysis of disrupted gene sequences using 
bioinformatics is required) 
 (ii) how RNA interference (RNAi) technology and analysis of the effect of suppressing the 
expression of a protein of interest can be used to characterise the cellular role of 
protein (principles of RNAi are required) 
 
This is only part (a) of 1 chapter.

eh... u don't like genetics and bioinformatics?

i find it crucial in medical practice especially pharmacogenomics and other related fields that i can;t remember but used to discuss so eagerly about. it'll be tackled on the 1st yr of medicine i think.

don't know much 'bout mTn?? but i can handle RNA interference.
