I sat next to too many people in classes, such as math, and kept hearing the same thing..."why am I learning this, I'm never going to use it?".  The unfortunate thing is they were right.  They never learned it...and thus, never use it.

You have no idea what you will use, of what you learn...ever...until you use it.  College isn't only about learning the specific material, it's about broadening your understanding about topics you have no understanding of now, and never would, without being exposed to it in college.

What you learn in school, in part, are the basics of everything in life that you will want/need to learn in the future.  Without the basics, you won't be able to learn the complex.  

The most important thing you learn in school isn't the topics, or subjects...it's how to learn.
