View submission: Do highschool grades matter?

View parent comment

The biggest thing I think people miss is that high school is free (or essentially free for the student). I'm way out of high school now and if I wanted to take something like a pottery class it would cost me a considerable amount of money. Take advantage of this while you can, don't take any wasteful classes where you just sit around doing nothing.

The more expensive the materials are the better. Remember you can pirate books and college will likely cover the things you actually *need*. One of my favorite memories was a completely pointless "jewelry" class where we learned to work with metal using dangerous industrial power tools. There's no way I'd actually spend money to do that now.
