<p>It sounds to me like you want other people to justify your reasons for going to college. No one is going to do that for you. You’re going for the same reason millions of other people are going- you want a job. Most likely your grades are determined by a curve that will be set by the other people in your class. Face it, your grades and your future will be determined by how hard you work compared to other people. You want to learn? Go to wikipedia. Get your pseudointellectual butt back in the ratrace and stop complaining.</p>
