I am sick of working hard for school

[alkemyst]

get a, b, and c's have fun, learn about life (especially women), and take it in stride.

It's not really so much how well you do in college really, it's who you meet and can network with after the fun is done.

and in reality, I loved learning (I still do), but my calling would have been much better served if I did things with my hands. Don't get me wrong I blew away IQ, Aptitude, and other kinds of tests....but I love working with my hands and I am good at it. Now 7 years of college and $33k in loans later I am trying to start my own business which will be more labor based.

Were my college days a waste of time? not totally...but I could have condensed alot of it instead of having 1 complete Bachelor's and about 2 or 3 partials/minors

I know what you mean, sometimes I'm working on projects on abour four different modules, so trying to concentrate on one then moving onto something completey different is a little difficult. Just chill abit, and if that before applies to you then just save your energy for your final year.

You realize that we're talking about college here don't you? Every class you take affects your overall GPA, and that's what a lot of employers look at when your a new grad.

Not here in the UK, in university your overall grade is set from what you get on the final year of your degree.
