    I didn’t need to learn about, well actually in English I didn’t learn anything

    I found why you think school doesn’t teach things that school definitely teaches.

      Learn anything past 8th grade yeah. I took as advanced courses as were offered, but it didn’t teach anything new. Just a higher burden of homework. (That’s largely what IB classes were)

        Yes this means that you failed to apply yourself appropriately, because you failed to learn.

        Fun fact, I used to teach high school. I am literally an expert in what you should have learned.
