39. wow, sorry you didn't get much out of your education. the rest of us do, for the most part.

or, maybe it's just that you're failing to appreciate how your education did, in fact, provide you with those things.

yeah, i, too, did a research paper in 10th grade. i also did research toward a phd. very, very different things, not the same techniques at all.

college certainly did all those things for me.


in any event, you get out of college what you put in. if you don't challenge yourself, take advanced courses and/or courses outside your comfort zone, and then don't try to do your best, then, sure, you can get through four years without getting much out of it.

to me, though, that's one of the biggest differences between college and high school. high school you do because you have to. college you do because you want to. so you try to get as much out of it as possible.
