College is not a waste of money and by no means is it the most important thing in life. Getting a good education IS important, but you can goto college make good greats and learn nothing. A good argument can be viewed here TED | Talks | Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity? (video) as to how the current education system can lead to the destruction of creativity. I would suggest going to college only if you are willing to learn. Not just academically, but socially and creatively. I goto college and have learned as much outside of the classroom as I have in the classroom, it is all about how you take it. QUIT BRAGGING ABOUT GRADES. First of all what kind of validity is saying "i scored the top 99th percentile". Its about as valid as me telling you "I slept with Jessica Simpson last night and gave her a facial." Besides that grades are only a way to measure someones ability to take that specific test, which is geared to a certain way of thinking. My friend who I consider to be as smart if not smarter than me, in the same major, has a lower GPA by an entire point. Is he dumber than me? Hell no, I just perform better in certain areas based on what I am being asked to do. Grades can only be used to assist people in assessing intelligence levels, not determine them. |

How well somebody performs a particular task can give an indication of how good they are at performing that kind of task. Christ, I should have been a philosopher. |
