is school worth it?

Question

see above.

Answer 1

Yes my boy school is worth it! High school is important for several reasons. Regardless of if you plan to go to university, school prepares you for your future by giving you all the necessary skills. Important things in high school are:
1) Academia: analytical skills, problem solving, reading and writing, vocabulary, mathematics, sciences, history, geography and any thing else you take. It builds on all skills you all ready had, and gives you many new ones.
2) Social skills: problem solving, team work etc.
3) Time management and organization
4) Ethics and moralities
5) You get to have fun hanging out with your friends and being a teenager.

If you’re talking about university, on the other hand, it may or may not be. It depends on what you want to do. Basically you do need an education for most careers. Look at it this way: isn't a few years of suffering in university worth the lifetime of pleasant work experience?

Answer 2

That kind of depends on what you want to do with the rest of your life. If you want to be a garbage collector, ditch digger or bum, you can skip school. In case you would like to earn a living, maybe even have a career and a little extra money in the bank, then school is definitely worth it.

Answer 3

Yes and No. If you have rich parents and your going to get a bunch of money when they die, don't bother going unless you like learning. If your parents are not rich and your not going to marry a rich person, then the more you learn, the more you will make.

Simple answer; school = happiness in the long run!

Answer 4

Are you serious? Of course. School teaches you the baisic needs for life. You need an education to pursue a career. If you don't go to school you'll baisically be a bum with no internet, and you'll never be able to come on yahoo answers.

Answer 5

Honestly, that really depends on what you want to do...I recommend that everyone finish high school, but I also know two things: college is not for everyone and having tons of degrees does not necessarily equal wealth and success.

I'm sure you are probably asking this question to get everyone all agitated, but, honestly, school is not for everyone.

I always tell my students that SUCCESSFUL people are MOTIVATED people.

Answer 6

Yes it is. At least get your associates degree.
