Was it the public school system that tought you to spell "great", "grate", and to say "think", and not "thinking"?  if so, you have your answers... not trying to put you down or anything, but we are talking about schooling, which equals education. idunno.gif

 

Go where you will not only learn the most, but also how to use what you learn.  An IQ test does not messure knowledge, but how knowledge is used.frow.gif

 

Again, I'm not trying to be mean... hide.gif

Um, aricisom? The past tense of teach is spelled t-a-u-g-h-t. Also, to quantify is to m-e-a-s-u-r-e.wink.png

High school can be a great time for teenagers if they make the most of it.  Should you wish to make the most of it, you can have a lot of fun in high school, make lifelong friends, and take advantages of opportunities to prepare to go to college.  High school is what you make of it.  You can start working on your community service for your HS transcripts, as well as beefing up that transcript with fun athletic or social school clubs and activities - try running for office, if you dare, and go to some dances - memories of the lifetime and a strong HS transcript for college can be the end result of high school.  There are as many pros are there are cons, and much of it depends on you and what kind of goals you have.

I prefer an ugly truth to a pretty lie. If someone is telling me the truth that is when i will give my heart. ~ Jack Nicholson 

Look! A ladder!! Maybe it leads to heaven, or a sandwich...
