I was like that in High School. Then I got to college......

Nope.

me, too. it shows in some areas. i'm slow at math, for example.

[archibaldcrane]

The "I'm so smart that I dropped out of high school" people never fail to crack me up.

Yeah because suffering from crippling depression making you unable to even get out of bed anymore automatically means you're less intelligent? lol. Rarely does anyone ever drop out highschool because it was too "hard" or anything, so I don't see your point. But regardless since it looks like the comment was directed at me, I never said I was "smart", I said I have exceptional test-taking skills without having to study

[AidenCarby]

Decided to check out blackboard for shits and giggles and it seems assignments have already been posted, despite class not starting until the 27th. Fuck yeah for getting a little head.

Hooked up a girl from my Wednesday night class last night, she suggested we see a movie, she mentioned Let's Be Cops, it was cringe worthy to watch but she liked it, got head after the movie so worth, would go again.

Those people don't exist. People who think they are those people just haven't had any real courses.

The whole point of going to college is to learn something that will be the base of your professional career possibly for the rest of your life. Not putting any effort into studying when you enter higher education is retarded. The more you learn the better for you.

[AidenCarby]

I agree with this about 90%, if it's anything core related absolutely but if it's a bullshit art history class or something that offers no value in the real world nor to my major; I'd be thrilled to not have to study and still do well in the class. But, since I'm not one of those types, I just study for everything :/

[BaneTheBrawler]

a lot of it depends on the material. like i said, it shows in my math skills; those take practice to get the speed down. no practice, no speed. the classes it was easiest to do that for were things you don't really need to memorize much in, like English-type classes. Read the subject material, participate in class discussion. As long as you don't completely forget everything you read, you pick up enough to hold your own.

another huge part of it is the type of test. multiple choice being easier than written segments, etc. if you know enough to narrow down the answers, you can generally guess correctly.

This is why NCLB is so fucking stupid. People my age were trained more to take tests than actually know the subject matter. Those of us who picked up on critical thinking skills were able to tease some understanding out of it but we were still generally poorly prepared for college level courses. Except that the colleges are well aware of this defect and are basically teaching high school now.

:D and I couldn't careless what you and anyone on this board has to think about it. It doesn't bother me in the slightest, I don't lose any sleep at night and life has treated me respectively well pre and post all of that.

I disagree with this. I think this train of thought is what is systematically ruining college and devaluing a college education. Not only that but it makes college very intimidating for kids trying to figure out what they want to do for the rest of their lives. The large majority of people I know use the knowledge they gained in college in their careers and daily lives but they do NOT work in the industry that directly relates to their degree.

[AidenCarby]

That's because most of them are retards and were art majors.

Thats because at 18, a lot of people havent figured out what they want to do for a living. They have their ambitions, but once they get their foot in there, and realize what its really like, they change their mind.
