Did it adequately prepare you? Or did it waste your time and youth and only tried to teach you to be submissive?

I always had As throughout K-12 and even through college but I'm an ugly autistic who can barely hold a conversation so I've still wound up doing bottom of the barrel jobs because no one else wants to hire a sperg. If I was smart enough for STEM it could've been a non-issue but no dice.

high school doesn't mean shit.

IQ correlates better with success in life than education.

Was always easily top 10 in my class, never tried, now 5% income bracket, still not trying.

I failed high school math and now I’m a senior engineer. So no.

in 2004 I switched from going to a Catholic Middle School with dress code policies, Mass three times a week, and teachers who gave a fuck about our salvation... to a public high school without a dress code, in the dumbest of sluts in tube tops, and with a little regard to the rigors of mathematics.
I was not successful because of my place in schooling, but rather because I saw in my instructors the soul of stupidity of those willing to gobble up everything the Democrat party put forward as we approached 2008.

I share a similar opinion.

Missing out on teen pussy really fucked me up psychologically.

perhaps if the schools hadn't lied to you about their purpose by telling you they were for learning useful things to be a productive member of society and had instead been honest and upfront and explained that you were really just there to get you out of your parents hair for eight hours so they could work or spend and the only useful thing you might actually learn there is how to "socialize" (which really just means learning to hide your instinctive disgust for faggots and other degenerates and learning how to read and put up with female histrionics) things might have turned out differently.

It was more of a hindrance desu. Bullies, some bad teachers, etc. it was a public school though
I probably would’ve been better off being homeschooled

This.

by 10th grade id show up and put my head down in most classes. the only people around me that cared at all were just sociopaths whose only goal was to make a lot of money. none of it sat well with me but i didnt have the words for why. i have no idea how its supposed to be ok to take a sheltered repressed child stuff him in a classroom with a bunch of spics, niggers and teachers who hate their life and then expect him to give a shit enough for what? to pick a career for the next 45 years on a whim and get a loan for a dodge charger?

No but it’s a decent barometer. I was one of the more successful students in high school and I’m one of the more successful as adults.

“There are times, however, and this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison and sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV and relentless masturbation. It's a strange world. Some people get rich and others eat shit and die.”
