Yes. You never know when you'll be on a runaway train and you'll need to figure out exactly how much time you have before you collide with another train that's on the same track for some inexplicable reason.
It depends on what you decide to do with the rest of your life. Let's say you become an artist. Will you ever use calculus again? Doubtful...but all the math classes you took in high school probably taught you how to think logically and critically, even if you didn't realize it then.
History, literature, and civics are all important in being a well-rounded, knowledgable adult.
So, if you mean whether you'll be using everything in a literal sense ("Congratulations, Johnson, you saved the big account by discussing the causal relationship between the overextension of imperal legions and the fall of the Western Roman Empire!"), no, you probably won't. But is most of it useful in some way? Yes.

Well, you will use a lot of the information you get in school , but most probably you want remember that you learned it 20 years ago....it will just seem........"logical"
There will also be a lot of information that you want use.....but that is not a lost....
For example....the poems , they want help you very much....I mean how can you use a poem?.......But the fact that you read it and tried to understand what the poet's message was has developed your brain , and taught it to make connections that you might need later. It had also developed your speech so that you could easier explain to others your what you want, ......
And another thing......all the trouble you go to school ....makes get used to having responsibilities, dead lines, successes and falls....and most important.....how to get up after a fall
So don't worry....it's not a complete lost of time......but you should also have some fun,.....cause you're young.....and you can also learn from your mistakes......just don't make too big mistakes....k?

Honestly, no. But since we don't know when you are 5 years old (or even 15, for that matter) what you will be when you grow up, you are asked to learn much that you will never use again unless you go into a particular field.
That said, knowledge for the sake of knowledge is never a bad thing. The more knowledge you have, the more options you are able to create when you face problems and difficulties.

No way.But its the way our education syllabus goes about.By the time you reach high school you will remember nothing.Practically even in real life what we have learnt hardly applies.So its the function of the education system that must be scrutinised.

I can tell you for sure, I've never used Algebra, Geometry, Trig, French, most sciences or maths. I've used my english and lit courses, but I'm a writer.

Yes, in school, you mainly learn how to learn. You will continue to learn all your life, therefore, you really use all the stuff they teach you in school ;)

Yes i believe so. Although it may not seem that you'll ever use physics or even math, the basic fundamentals are used daily even if you dont realize it.
