Why do most astrologers say that Rahu Mahadasha is not good for education?

One need to understand Rahu and its nature because its a shadow planet, it doesn't own any rashi in the horoscope/kundli so it acts like an agent of that house. Rahu likes materialistic pleasure of life. It will create an illusion in the mind of the person effect by rahu, to take short cuts and unethical path to lead towards success. 

Rahu’s nature of achieving results is by hook or crook. It is seen that due to this nature the person effected by rahu often get trapped into problems. The lust for materialistic pleasure will force the person to choose an easy unethical way to achieve it.
It is because of this greedy nature of Rahu for enjoying materialistic pleasure actually demotivate a person from study and therefore a person cannot correctly concentrate himself for study. This is the reason why most astrologers says that rahu mahadasa is not good for education.
