Shleebee911: living on my own. if i wanna be a history majior, than cool. if i don’t, then why lear it? I understand english and stuff, but who cares about science unless you wanna be a scientist? or a medical person?

Shleebee911: 1-8 grade, that’s all you need

Shleebee911: and kindergarden

That was part of the conversation ashley and I had about school. She claims that she doesn’t need school past middle school. I strongly disagree.

See, you need as much education as you can get to become profficient in the profession of your choice. I will say, however, that there are certain subject matters which are useless one way or the other. There are those that aid you tremendously in life. For the former, I would say that having a class like GSU 1010 won’t help me all that much. However, having a class like phil will definately help me. I have learned fallacies which could determine whether or not someone’s proposal is true or have flaws.

Also, if you are a natural at a subject, high school and beyond allows you to perfect your craft. Just this past semester, I took english 1102. Thanks to that class, my writing and grammar skills have improved because I understand the English language more fully now. I could not become an award winning author if I had skipped high school and started writing professionally.

Subjects like science help you to formulate a strategy to help solve problems. Math helps you figure out how interest rates will affect your credit card with each purchase. Those are just a few examples of why going to high school and college can help you out.
