I was actually one of the ones who did well academically, but the whole notion of the way the education system is set up here never sat well with me, even as I was getting my useless “A”s. I was literally in 2nd grade when I started questioning the educational system, because it never made sense to me.
If you look at the Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Albert Einsteins- all the geniuses who dropped out of school- they were all stifled by the rigidity of school and the rigidity of the mainstream establishment thought. Granted, 99% of us here aren’t geniuses like them, but if even they couldn’t hack school, how can we?
School is just another form of mass indoctrination of our youth, to establish a status quo, and to quell any dissent. Education is created by the elite to control us, to make us good little worker bees, to not to revolt, not think for ourselves, or have any ideas that may disrupt their little productive slave chain.
I wish I knew school was entirely bullshit when I was younger and didn’t waste so much of my time on useless shit. Don’t believe in the lie they tell you- “if you do well in school, you’ll get a good job and do well in life.” Absolute bullshit. You’ll probably just wind up heavily in debt, with the same worthless paper degree that everyone else has.
So- don’t stress out too much about grades and school- it’s mostly bullshit anyway. Enjoy your youth much as you can, i.e. study less, stress out less, don’t waste so much of your life in school or hw if you can help it. Wish someone had told me that in my youth.

I agree with you 100%. I am not the note/desk sitting student, and that is what college is; and that is what the high school is set for, college, and nothing else.
and college is to set you up for…grad school, nothing else. so more debt. college doesn’t set you up for any useful skills whatsoever.
