I didn't feel much. I had to start home schooling when i was about 15 due to health problems, which felt more like the end of my school days (<- don't want that anime) than when i actually 'finished'. As for how i felt when i left proper schooling, mostly just lonely. You don't realize how much fun it is to spend time with your friends until you can't ^^;


This, exactly, i bee home also since 15, im 17 , and after watching all these high school animes, it makes me really want to go back and have this nice high school life, but school is nothing like that anyway, but i will go back to a special school in august hopefully ^^

How are you graduating high school if your 15,same with slarvax at age 16?is if different in other countries or did you skip a grade. I'll be 17 when I graduate which is already pretty young for a student in the US

I'll be 17 when I graduate I think that's common in South America: 17 graduating highschool and entering uni at 18.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

LOL. I thought we were talking about college. I'm almost done with that.

Isn't it pretty much the same thing? US people call it college, non US people call it University?

In Canada, college is like a pre-uni or another year of highschool. If we can trust my sister that is.

Graduated from high school in 2012, missed it for the first few years but my time at university (Especially this school year) has proven to be a lot better and enjoyable than school.



I only regret my last year of high school. Teachers were skipping class more than me and my memories are really vague because i ended most schooldays drunk.
People from my class in the last year also are the only one i stayed in touch with.

Same in the UK

5-11 Primary School
11-16 Secondary School
16-18 College
18-21 University


That's interesting. In the U.S. we have:

6-11 elementary school

12-14 middle school

15-18 high school

19-22 college

23+ grad school or job (most often job)



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

I recall middle school and that's it. For all the wrong reasons though.

College is much better, I'm studying something that I actually like with that I actually like, and instructors that (again) actually like.



School is a waste of time because it teaches you to become an employee. You here it all the time, "Go to school, get a better job." It doesn't matter what school 'teaches' you because it has almost zero application to real life and how real life actually works. Look at MBA's, 9/10 times they become glorified bean counters because school can't teach you hard work or motivation it just tells you what to write down and you are most likely to pass.

School is soooo easy to get good grades but it teaches no valuable knowledge.

Go ahead, go to school and get a better job, the more money you have the more money you spend. Your not getting ahead of anyone when your living from paycheck to paycheck. School never taught me about financials, the stock market, taxes, business.

If I could have all the time from school back I would skip that valueless part of my life and go straight to building my life, my business and my portfolio. I'd be retired alot!!! faster if the school system knew anything valuable.



when i finished undergrad i didn't feel much difference.... because i still have to study to get my RN license....

i studied with my college buddies... which was really fun.

After i got my license it felt really good... it made me feel i accomplished something.

for my grad school.... it felt meh....



 

Well i'm a junior in high school currently still and I have pretty mixed feelings. Obviously I don't mind going to school because I get to see my friends but at the same time I feel like it's just holding me back and I just want to go my own way. But also at the same time if it wasn't for school I wouldn't be able to see my friends as much and my social life probably wouldn't be as big as it is now. So basically I feel like I want to leave and go my own way but at the same time feel like i'm not ready to leave yet.
