I'm a Senior in HS & I have to start thinking about college cause everyone is making me, lol. Anyway I fu*king hate school so much. I get shit grades, on purpose, not accident. I live in NY, 65 is passing, I only go for 65's cause I hate school and don't care & 65 is passing, so I still passed even tho not high grade. Anyway all my teachers are saying college isn't right for certain people. I can't stand school at all, I hate it so much, you have no idea, w/ a burning passion. Once I'm done w/ this year, after I graduate, I wanna be done forever, no more school. Fu*k school, lol. Anyway is is really that important to go to college? I don't even know what I wanna do, career wise, nothing interests me. And my friends are telling me just go and see if you'll actually hate it, but if I hate school and don't wanna do it anymore after this year, why should I go waste $20k+ on college and possibly drop out within a month, and I'm pretty sure you don't get refunds.

I personally love it, but some people are different than others. I would recommend it!

I was a senior in HS with a 3.5 GPA and got B-'s - B+'s and am now a freshman in college.. its cool being away from parents but if you don't like school you'll probably skip a lot and get behind and then it does seem like a waste and not enjoyable at all. If you have another plan I'd do that if you hate school as much as you say you do cuz atm I'm not enjoying college at all. I've met quite a bit of people and the social aspect is cool but its definitely not worth spending all that money if you don't even want to go to the classes.

Oh course it is you can get better jobs and everything. I am signing up for the army for 6 years when I get out of highschool then I am going to college. I would say do so you can make more money.

I mean I understand that w/o college it's hard to get a job, not impossible, just harder, but still. I honestly hate school. Everyone wants me to go, but fu*k them, lol. It's my life. I just hate school and after high school is over, I want school to be over forever, no more. So like if I hate school so much, why should I waste $$ and go back?

But I hate school, so yes going to college I'd be making more money in the long run, but 1 there's a possibility I would drop out & 2 I'll be miserable af considering I've hated school all my life.

Money isn't everything. If you'd be happier out of school isn't that what matters? Thats why im probably about to go transfer to a community college part time and work. Much more enjoyable than classes every day and spending a fortune.

If you haven't got a clue what career path you should take, there's no point wasting your/your parents money on college. Only dedicated people go to college and get through it.

College isn't for everyone. You can still get a nice paying job without it but if you hate school and you hate doing school work don't go. Also going to college won't guarantee a good job. I hope you go with your mind and do what you feel best is for you.
