yknow you don't have to go to college to get a job you love and can live off, guys >.<
Skip the denial step and go on to acceptance.

As a dropout, I think I can reliably say: You do need a high school education, you do need to at least get your gen. eds.

cheap college master race, screw your fancy prestigious four year schools

A small small minority of people maybe. For anyone that want's a not stuffty job for the rest of their life they need some form of secondary education. It could be college, trade school, or going through some process of learning a skill.

yeah i was talking about college >.<
obviously you'll have to atleast learn a skill
every single job in existence requires you to learn atleast one skill

You must love some really mundane stuff.
I'm sorry, but it's true.
It's really hard to learn advanced things without the assistance of advanced courses and professors.

But history is actual interesting unlike everything else.

I could just be the only one thinking this, but in my opinion most required classes for 10th grade and up are completely useless. Education needs to keep up with technology. If you want to find something out you can just look it up online, there's no use in requiring it to be learned in highschool grades. If you're thinking "Well where is the information online supposed to come from", well, if you want to be a math guy or chemist or whatever then you should be required to take these classes. Then you go to college and become an expert and then people who choose to will put up the information and online calculators in the Internet.

These required classes should be replaced with classes that help you move forward in your career choice. Not useless information that has nothing to do with what you want to be when you grow up.

What is the forums' thoughts?

Hello.
You sound like an angsty teenager who hasn't finished high-school yet, am I correct?

If so, maybe you will find your answer after you find out where you want to go in life.

I still use advanced maths and physics day-to-day on the job when i'm in the hangar or in the room working on paperwork / classwork.

It's pretty useful if you ask me, as aircraft have to have certain pressure limits on the exterior but yet a comfortable interior pressure that will sustain quality air. Hydraulics have to be perfect in terms of height and oil for them to function properly, as do most aircraft systems. Without maths, we would have trouble with the wiring and the computers used in the roosterpit of the aircraft.

I'm not quite sure you understand how important learning is...
