    I fucking hated school both because I was held back while everyone else reached a decent level, and also it didn’t actually teach me anything fucking useful, especially during high school.

    held back

    Any chance you dropped out early? We were taught all the things you mentioned starting at a Junior level (10th grade). Of course most kids hated it and didn’t pay attention or give a shit.

      I stayed through graduation; I honestly didn’t learn anything new from 7th grade on. I took all the tech classes that were available at my hs, and I knew all the material except AP Comp Sci which was just Java coding. I then TAd in those courses because I knew everything so the teacher could screw around, and when they were away screwing around I turned the classes into hangout hour, with the most laid-back atmosphere ever; easiest credits ever. All my required classes were review for me. I wanted to test out of everything but it wasn’t an option, ffs.
