The only time I would ever talk about this was to annoy people who spend every goddamn minute of their lives worrying about getting into a name brand college, meeting a teacher, worrying some more, and thinking about how good a college they could get into so they could name drop it. There were kids who got tutored for the SATS twice a week, I let them know that I got what they got without studying [/ QUOTE ] I can respect that. |

If you are saying that your grades in high school were not dependant on homework you are either lying or the exception to the rule. The only class I can think of right now that didn't require homework was my math class where if you got an A- or better on the last test you didn't need to do any hw until the next test. There is absolutely no way that most classes in most HS's in this country don't base a big percent of the grade on HW. |

Snakerat see, how is it possible for you not to pay attention or do any work and get a B? You weren't born knowing the material for the class so WHERE THE [censored] DID YOU LEARN IT? [/ QUOTE ] I learned most of what is required knowledge in highschool through day to day life outside of a class or homework situation. Examples: Watching TV, reading books, conversations with friends/family. A little discovery channel plus history channel went a long way for me. This plus naturally sharp logic and writing skills = 3.0 with no effort. I used up the maximum allowed absences every semester, and the rest of the time sat in class daydreaming about sports, videogames, and pussy all day. Now I am in college studying Organic Chemistry, and my non-existant study habits have been forced to improve. Sadly Sesame Street didn't discuss nuclear magnetic resonance. |

Re: I Didn\'t Study For This Test, I\'m Cool
The only refutation I can offer is that sometimes people have already learned certain material on their own several years earlier, so when they actually take a class they already know the stuff.
No, I didn't do math homework. No, I didn't pay attention in class. Yes, I had already taught myself the stuff years earlier. Yes, I never got less than an A. So you're right, nobody can do well in school without knowing anything, but when they learn it much earlier than they were "expected" to, they end up not doing anything and still getting A's in that particular class. And I -did- get a B in high school. Second semester AP US History. I should have done more of the reading than I did (see, I did do some of it). ~D |
