full time school is for the weak, seriously.

I dropped out in grade 11, and I'm finishing highschool part time through correspondence, and I couldn't be happier. I'm taking a (non-highschool related) class in entrepreneurship and I'm starting my own business soon.

I know this is somewhat the opposite of what I should be saying, but school was ruining my life, I wasted too many years in there. I stopped learning from the public school system somewhere around gr 5-7 (there were 3 teachers I had in highschool that were able to actually teach me something), and most of what I have learned in the last few years is self-taught.

Just have fun with it. I did. Its a hell of a lot better than working everyday. Honestly, Highschool is supposed to be one of the most fun times of your life (until college :D). Don't take it for granted. God, now I sound like my dad.

Nah, high school SUCKS. College is where it's at. Live it up for those 4-6 yrs, because after that, the real world sucks too.

I hated my high school, but I did not drop out but, I graduated a year early by cramming courses done my throat. No free study periods, all day up to 9 courses a semester. I graduated in my top 10% with a 3.5 so I just didn't pass by to graduate. Then I worked for 3 years and saved my money and then went to college and I paid it off after my 4 years were done so no loans to pay back after I graduated from college.
