True Story: Thomas Edison was sent home from school at a young age because, according to the school headmaster, he was mentally deficient and unteachable.
His mother intentionally misread the note to Thomas that he was a genius and the school was too small and did not have good enough teachers for him. That she was to teach him herself.
We all know the results of that.
The fact is that there is often a mismatch between what a school is teaching and their method and with how many people work and their potential. There is no shame in repeating a class or dropping out.
Here's another truism if you look at the overall data:
Most "A" students end up working for "B" student managers, who are working in companies founded by "C-F" student, or dropout, Business Owners.
In almost all cases, you get paid on EQ (emotional intelligence), not IQ. Something the schools have largely ignored.
I mean highschool isnt that hard. Whatever happens after that is up to your own ability. Graduating highschool is just the certification that you were smart enough to do the bare minimum to get the diploma.
Yeah some dropouts become CEOs but the MAJORITY tend to fail in life early on and continue the fuck up cycle to the next generation. You only hear about the success stories not the truth of overwhelming failure.
Here is a question relating to when you went to school
