How important do you think academic excellence is in high school?

<p>

School is a game designed for those most compliant to follow the beck and call of the administration, and/or those intelligent enough to cheat the system.</p>

<p>You know those kissups who you just want to burn at the stake? They’ve mastered the system.</p>

<p>So no, academic excellence is a piece of ******** and I’m very very tired of it.

<p>Agreed. When I have a B in an Advanced Placement English course – and I’m the only student in the class that managed to get all A’s on the tests and quizzes – because I didn’t want to “draw a picture of my favorite character”, I begin to doubt the correlation between high school and academic excellence.</p>
