    Anologue clocks are widely used

    Alright, ig they are. But not always used everywhere. People can opt for digital clock any time. If there’s no digital clock somewhere you go, well, most of the time people carry digital devices which use the digital clock. There’s as many digital clocks as there are smartphones. And People tend to check their smartphones a lot. Thus, they’re more exposed to them. Therefore it doesn’t really matter. My point still stands

        They can have a digital clock anytime they want, thus it doesn’t matter. Ig, long paragraphs hurt u

          They also have a calculator any time they want, why are we requiring mental arithmetic, sweetie?

            I said this a LOT of times sweetie, pls write it down.

            Here we go…

            BRAINS ARE FASTER WITH SMALLER CALCULATIONS THAN CALCULATORS AND ANALOG CLOCKS ARE NOT FASTER THAN DIGITAL ONES IN ANY WAYS

            Was that large enough? Can u see it?

              Honestly, mate - you are the best proof why the analogue clock skills are needed 🤣🤣🤣

                Still wasn’t large enough I see. I’m starting to suspect your ability to read. You’re the best proof why reading comprehension is necessary. 🤡🤡🤡

            So digital clocks should be allowed in exams that allow calculators? I mean both are taught in the lower grades and if calculators are allowed in high school, so should digital clocks be, at least according to your logic

              Read again. Slowly.

                  Let me take a guess: you may have heard about higher education at some point. Apart from that, read again and again. Slowly. Few times.

                    You’re ratioed in each and every comment and still you act with this feeling of superiority. I admire this level of confidence or should I say lack of self reflection.

                    Where I live, students get a calculator in I think 8th or 9th grade. So at this point, it would be ok to also hang a digital clock in the classroom, right?

                    If you are repeatedly misunderstood and want to change that, maybe rephrase your point if you have one. Than you might even be taken seriously.
