I do hold the opinion that the education system is way behind the times as far as acknowledging the ubiquity of computers and calculators.

The thing that a computer can not do is choose the correct equation to solve. Once given the correct equation, though, it will solve it remarkably quickly.

The human advantage is in knowing what equation you want to solve.

I feel like a huge portion of my math education focused on how to solve the equations and not how to ensure I am solving the correct equations.

It's good that some group of experts understand how to create and program those computers. I'm just not sure where to draw the line at what minimum level of math provides the most benefit to society for a reasonable cost (intentionally ambiguous).
