    That doesn't make you not smart, Rarit E, it just makes you different.

    All these school threads make me feel bad. I really need to get off my butt and start doing stuff. I plan on attending a Technical Institute to study welding. College definitely isn't for me since, well, truth be told I'm kind of an idiot. :(

    You could do it. Maybe you've just got different life plans. :)

    Haha, that's cool. It is kinda sad that we ALMOST went to the same school, though.

    A quarter of my family currently goes there and most of my best friends. They are going on their second year and they thought it was alright I mean they didn't like it that much, but it could be worse.

    Finishing up at Columbia State Community College this fall, and will be attending the University of North Alabama next spring to start finishing up my bachelor's.

    If you don't want to pursue higher education, then that's a perfectly valid life choice, but there is no such thing as not being 'smart enough' for college.

    Nope. I litteraly wasn't smart enough. I'd have kept going if they'd let me pass, which they didn't because i wasn't smart enough.

    You can study all you want and as much as you think is needed, but if you simply can't remember any of it by the time you're doing the exam, it's pointless.

    I feel so out of place amongst the older bronies... I have a lot of research to do before thinking about college, the original plan was to go to Duke University, but they didn't offer the courses I was looking for. But by the time I decide what I want to do for sure, Duke may end up offering it, if not, I'll get to pick a cheaper alternative. Just gotta keep on getting teh good grades.
