    Oh, it’s very very bad.

    The basic stuff you’re mentioning about electricity is not taught in US highschools (I can’t speak to AP classes).

    The only reason I know any of it is because I took physics in college

      Sorry, but I don’t believe you. There is no way that USA school curriculum lacks basic things like Ohm law, magnetism, etc. It just can’t be. Yes, I heard that in the USA curriculum isn’t country-wide, so it might change from state to state, but not to this nonsensical degree.

        I don’t even think every high school student here even takes Physics class.

        I didn’t learn about electromagnetism until Physics 200 in University.
