[split] Purpose of school/homework
#11
I hear a lot of people saying school is bad for you. School is what you make of it. If you want to get a good education, you are going to have to work for it. And a good education is extremely useful. But if you just sit there and expect the system to just work for you, you will get a bad education. I'm not saying there aren't bad schools. I'm still pissed at UVa about my masters degree. But I could have easily gotten a bad education as an undergraduate as well. I didn't because I put the effort in to get a good one.

Where are you located globally? Is this a USA question? Because from what I hear, there are lots USA answers.

The biggest disadvantage from following university in USA is you have to pay hefty price each year just to be there.

In Europe, university is free. Consider this. Of course, it is not true everywhere, but there are huge differences.

This is not even talking about quality of education. I hear Asian universities deliver great education as well.
