Probably over half of the people here don't go to school because they are over 18. But some go to college.

I am in 8th grade.

oh how the schooling works here is you get credits and you need a ceritan amount to pass 80 for level 1 60 for level 2 and 3 i got 135credits in level one and at least 20 of them were level 2 your aloud to carry over 20 level 1 credits so i was on 40 at the start of the year everything we did in class i already knew and it was to easy i got bored and didnt do the work so i chose to leave and do something more challenging so i went to a polytech and did year course on programing and computer hardware repairs then a 6month course on working on a help desk the courses i did the end result is i come out of it with university level qulaifations and i have them at a way younger age i would have if i stayed in school but thats just me.

Things you learn in school:
"i" = "I"
"your aloud" = "you are allowed" or "you're allowed"
"didnt" = "didn't"
"ceritan"= "certain"
"qulaifations" = "qualifications"
"thats" = "that's"
Punctuation.

I'm done bashing you now though, I finished high school two years behind, failed grade 10 English 3 times, and I have spent the last 6 months or so fruitlessly searching for an entry level job that wasn't run by my parents, my boyfriend, or myself.

I stopped going to school years ago. I wasn't being challenged at all. Most of the things we learned was recycled from previous years, anyways. =/

Did you ever hear the acient chinese story of the guy who learned to count, but thought it was too easy becouse he learned 1-3 and they were 1=1 line ect. 4 is a symbol, but he never learned that becouse he was a pre-k dropout. Then some random hobo asked him to write 1,000, which is a symbol, but the idiot dropout just drew 1,000 lines. 2 days he'll never get back.

Serious

Then there's a problem with your school. And if you felt you weren't being challenged, then you could have gone to a gifted school or jumped ahead.

You need to go to school...
Least graduate high school
Haven't you seen the commercials?


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Khel - Aug. 24, 2009

A majority of jobs on the market at least require a high school diploma.

If it's easy I don't see any point in not doing it.


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - axe_ninja - Aug. 24, 2009

im not in school, cause im i college!

left school at 15, started college at 16 ... going into my second year and gonna nail some A levels to go with those GCSEs.

simple; im not in school cause i finished it at 15!


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Roan - Aug. 24, 2009

I graduated high school just over 2 years ago and I've been in and out of community college ever since then. It's not that I don't WANT to go to school, because I REALLY do, it's just that I have to pay for it all myself and working a (just slightly above) minimum wage job, 30 hours a week isn't going to pay for a college education and I don't qualify for most financial aid.

I'm in a really crappy situation. lol

thats pretty much what i had it was the same stuff we did the year before whats the point in learning stuff youve already done and they didnt have subjects for the job i want to get so why waste a year doing something thats not gonna help me when i could have done these courses which where university level and more challenging and actully something i want to get a job doing


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Blitzkrieg - Aug. 24, 2009

If it's to easy in the first place then why not just keep going so you have some direction.


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Dirge - Aug. 24, 2009

ive got university qualiftaions now and im only 17 T_T what would have been the point in waiting to get them like seriously spend 2 extra years in school and not realy get anything out of it
i want to programing and computer repairs high school didnt offer any of these chances but the place i went to after school did and i could get into the course so why not take it?


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Blitzkrieg - Aug. 24, 2009

I go to a University, but going through High School wasn't hard, Maybe it's just how we treat school in America you need high credits to get into a good school.


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Dirge - Aug. 24, 2009

yeah i went to a private school which didnt have all that much options like i passed everything when i was still there with high marks it just wasnt a challenge and i guess that was because there wasnt much options in the subjects the school had?


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Blitzkrieg - Aug. 24, 2009

True if i was forced to take subjects that weren't challenging i would quit school.

I go to a Community College, unfortunatly.
Im trying to figure out what I want to do in life. I have several interests, but majority of them you cant really go to school for them.


RE: how many people dont go to school here and why - Zander Soulwind - Aug. 24, 2009

I don't go to school because I finished more than three years ago. Unfortunately I have had a job in that time. <_<
