Rubbish, absolute rubbish. Hands up anyone who can remember the last time they used anything they learnt in school. I bet there's very few. Education sucks. Admittedly, you do need grades to really succeed in life, but they are grades for grades sake, rather than because you learn anything actually useful.
Originally posted by jimmyb270a lot of the hard facts are useless-i mean, i very much dobut i'll be needing to integrate lnxdx in my audult life, but it teaches logic and will show that you can problem solve to those people wishing to employ you...and what about all those computer techs or computer programmers and whatnot that studied computing? or the accountants that studied accounting at school? i'm studying history this year purely for the sake that it teaches me to write analytically.

in the words of alice cooper-schools out for summer! schools out for ever!!! 😀
today was my last proper day! ever!!! (the exams don't count...)
tomorrow, however, is a day for -erm- chaos to reign in my school...(we've got a ceremony thingy to go to, so we've gotta be in, and we're also getting our shirts signed etc...)
so-anybody got any ideas ...[text shortened]... n the toliet seats et al is also acceptable...and no fire alarms! cause that's kinda illegal 😛

I really mind but I don't think they could care one way or another. :'(:'(:'(:'(:'(🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁😳😳😳😳😳😞😞😞😞😞
