Dropping out of school..

[EnR]

Should I do it?

I honestly don't see why school is usefull. I'm on the internet so much that I learn more on here than I do at school.

I've gotten to a point where I don't even do my work at school, I talk back to my teachers and I'm getting 50-60's on my tests. I've got the potential to have 90+ averages but I'm way to lazy and see it as a waste of time.

I have no idea what I want to do in life, possibly go into trades, like welding or something, but other than that, I have no clue.

I'd like to here from people who have already dropped out.

Btw, I plan on getting a fulltime job somewhere if I do drop out.

IF your going to drop out of highschool, at least get a GED

but if i were you, id just tough it out until your done with highschool then pursue whatever you want afterwards

Fail EnR. This thread is fail. It's sad that you're even considering such an option. I mean, read and head what KgZ said. Dropping out will be the worst decision you'll probably ever make.

11th. But I see myself failing french and religion because I don't see why I even need to take these classes, I'm atheist and I don't care about french (even though I go to a french school rofl)

If you drop out and everything you plan on doing fails, you'll be with some gang on the streets stealing your dope rather than earning it.

If I did drop out I'd prob go work for my dad, ornamental work, makes railings and **** like that.

I don't think I can even handle going through this for another 2 years. There are so many rules at school, it's bull****.

EnR, don't. Just get a high school diploma. Then do whatever you want, like KgZ said.

How much did you actually think this through before posting?

Re: Dropping out of school..

oh im not sure what canada's school system is like. is 11th the highest? or 12th like america.
i would say just stick it out. i slacked off the majority of senior care because i really didnt care and i still managed to pass and graduate fine. you really dont have much more to go. but if you do drop out yeah get a GED or the Canada equivalent.

Re: Dropping out of school..

I would agree that usually people do learn more stuff from the internet/television then at school,but employers don't care about any of that unless its in writing.
I'm sure your computer does not give you a diploma or your television a GED for watching the Discovery channel or CNN.

Re: Dropping out of school..

Yea but I don't know what I want to do.

Re: Dropping out of school..

yeah get through high school and go to trade school or something. if you drop out and cant get into or pay for trade school you'll be working for not much more than minimum waige.

Dude, I have a manager who is 38. She just graduated high school last year. She went back to school after she dropped out when she was maybe 16, and she deeply regrets having ever dropped out.

Bottom line is, DON'T DO IT.

Re: Dropping out of school..

I think the same way. School is pretty dumb, but something so dumb is crucial in life.
Get through highschool, and if you can, go through college/some college. I don't want to see you as a homeless playing FFR on the streets to get some money.
