I got a 34 on the english section on the ACT. My grammar is fine when it needs to be. But it doesn't need to be when I'm posting on a car forum from my cell phone. Punk ;)

4 commas, and misspelled " before". I'll waive the spelling error though. The point stands though, you made a paragraph into a sentence.

There's a good example of an incomplete sentence. Although, it is better that you didn't add it into the previous run on sentence.

Overall, your entire post is a good reason to pay attention in school.


This post is just a because I can, don't take it too seriously.

snipIf you couldn't tell time before school, your parents need to be jailed. And (Never start a sentence with "and" I could spell too, obviously not every word in the english language, which I still can't, but I will reiterate that I read a ton of books outside of school, and I started reading befote school.

Which is where most of my spelling/vocabulary came from.

You already knew how to spell before school? Tell time?

Lmfao, if you couldn't tell time before school your parents need to be jailed. And I could spell too, obviously not every word in the english language, which I still can't, but I will reiterate that I read a ton of books outside of school, and I started reading befote school.

So you make $50k a year? ;)

That being said I can honestly, right hand to god say that other than math, I didn't learn a single thing in public school I didn't know already. But, I'm 10 years younger than you, and don't remember the world before dial-up. I've been using the Internet for roughly 15 years now, and I've always read books in my spare time.

Also I went to school in East Tennessee, so that could explain why our experiences were so different.

I gotta disagree with you. All it took was one good teacher to inspire me. I am where I am because of an incredible teacher, whom I still can call up any day and he will be there with sound advice.

I didn't go to college, I have no college debt, and I am well over halfway to 100k/year at 29.

That said, I did grow up in Montgomery County, MD, so that could have something to do with why I had a (mostly) good experience with public schools.

Even still, you cannot say you didn't learn a fair amount in those 12 years. Also, no way would any kid teach themselves the same amount of material on their own.

This thread made me. Anyways.

Creates a thread for his first post, tells us what he is doing and asks us what we are doing.
Thats What you would expect from 15 yrs old kid. Who thinks he is too cool to own e30, so he shares it here. This place isn't instagram kido, Nobody here cares about what you do. Don't get mad honey, ofcourse you will get trolled for that boyish act.

Also most people here are same age as your father.(BTW he must be so proud to have 15yrs old who owns e30.) So watch your little mouth, show some respectaa or gets used to comments you see above.

What a read. Go exodus!

On the topic of public school and high school the teachers are usually fine but the one size fits all attitude/ plan really sucks. I hated some of the crap they made me take and it affected my work ethic and everything so then my GPA dropped. Now I'm in college learning what I want I rarely miss homeworks or anything and it's sooo much better.

I wish I had gone to a tech school, learning something that will directly translate to a job if you ever want it is amazing.

And lol my teacher doesn't know how to spell sin for sin wave. He's argentinian so granted it sounds like that but shit

How is public school a waste of time?

I should make a shirt that says "I spent 12 years in this crappy institution and the only thing I'm mqualified to do is flip burgers and answer phones"

My premise is:

If school is meant to teach criticial thinking and educate students it fails miserably. Schools are testing factories.

If schools are meant to prepare students to enter the workforce it fails miserably. It quells creativity and teaches children to hate working and learning.

A high school diploma takes 12 years to get and is ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. Worst investment of 20,000 hours I could possibly imagine.
