The scary part is I still had a high GPA for doing almost nothing. Truly passing school is just doing the work not really having to think. They almost always gave busy work.
When I got to college it was so much better because it was nice being in a place where people actually wanted to learn and behaved in class. And I liked the challenge. |
The school I went to was the biggest waste of time in my entire life, and I see it now with my young nephews and their school. Boring, tedious, tow-the-line nonsense. Passions squashed, tedium promoted, conformity lauded. The only things I ever learned in school was how to make friends and how much I hated authority iin all its shapes and forms. I've got to thank them for that one.
