<p>In my case, and I will say this was some time ago, I do believe that it was the fact that I wasn’t being challenged that led a great deal to my decision to leave school. I was a NMF and turned down scholarships because I didn’t want the “pressure” of having to maintain a certain GPA to keep the scholarship. I wasn’t at all challenged by the university I attended and spent a great deal more time socializing than attending classes because I saw that I could easily get an A on the assignments. I was extremely bored with school and had practically no academic peers in any of my classes. I dropped out after 4 semesters of making the dean’s list to join the military. I wanted a challenge…I got one…lol.</p>
