Other - Education - March 2007

In peace, a civilian,
Wearing clothes as plane as mine,
A normal job and a normal life.
But when your country calls, from within or from afar,
You change into the tan and green of
The Army National Guard.
And just like that, you are a soldier going of to war.

Stepping forward in time of need, setting aside your fears.
Sacrificing all you have,
For death, you volunteer.

Understanding the oath pledged the day you signed your name,
Working hard everyday to keep our country safe.
Avowing to protect and serve no mater what it takes.

Gladly laying down your life for those you’ve never met.
You do it every day and you’ve never shown regret.

One day you’re fighting here at home, the next your in Kuwait.
Marching past the gates of hell, as if you owned the place,
When deep inside you fought for courage and prayed to God for grace.

I see you standing tall, pride running through your veins
I catch a glimpse of what we mean to you,
Why you go out there every day

I'm a sophomore in High School, and recently some annoying punk who never does his own work kept bugging me to do his 100 point project, as well as my own, which i hadnt yet finished. So, i changed a few things around, but all in all, the 2 projects looked VERY similar, I turned it in, and got caught, now my teacher is sayin i might get a 0 on it, but she has 2 talk bout it 2 administrator, or someone like that.The only reason I did this was 2 prevent a fight, bec/ i have a clean record, and wasnt about to have a HS fight on there, and if i had told someone, this punk would still have foughtme.I have proof i did ALL the work, its still on my computer n i cud and will print it out as proof i did it. I'm really stressed out about this, and dont know how to keep my grade to what it originally should have been, if the admin. decids to gimme a 0. Also, day b4 i did the work, this punk kept shoving me back away from the dor of clas we hav 2 gether(not same as class w/ project),watshud ido?

If there is one thing that always gets to me, it's when people put education equal to intelligence.

Now I've a pretty high IQ and I don't brag about things that I don't have, and I've never even as much as finished my secondary school - because education there was not good enough to my standards.

that would make you think, if standards are so low - and the standards here are said to be some of the highest in Europe - and people can get their certs with no problem, what use does education still have?

I am currently enrolled back into secondary school (home schooling because I work for a living) just because it is impossible for me to get a better job, regardless of my intelligence, without a degree of any sort!

Would you rather hire someone with brains without a degree or an eejit with a degree? If I was an employer my choice would have been easily made.
But employers still go for the education, blissfully unaware they hire eejits as well.

Is education not overrated?

I was wondering what age i have the intellegence of.
I get straight A's on my report card (except for gym XD too lazy)
I've gotten 140+ on IQ tests i take online (such as tickle.com)
I average a 85 on my report card
I understand things such as quantum physics and EEG (electroencephalography or something like that)
Im not in a gifted class
Im 12 years old in grade 7

Is this a normal amount of intellegence for my age? I mean, like, im not in a gifted class yet people say im really smart. Im just wondering if its normal or not..
