| Message | Going to an ordinary public school is a waste of time for the most successful students, especially when they can't go to advanced school because there isn't any free advanced school in their hometown. There are totally unsociable students too, they will get social problems in any school, and these problems are very, very huge. O.O.C.: How? Personal experience, I have studied last 4 years at home and have finished the school successfully. This was the only way. I've finished the full 11 year school program in 10 years, 16 years old. I could have finished high school even earlier, when I was 15 years old, but my mother didn't want to let me go to an university at such early age. |
