No! No matter how hard the school it's only purpose is to build your knowledge and character! Without it you won't survive to much..And for the job you can't possibly be better than an adult with full studies well prepared for live! Don't run away from reality. If you have problems move to another school but never give up!

idk ... if this thing doesn't work out on me then i'm definitely quitting ... i'm becoming upset of my college degree ... this is not my passion ... it was out of my lack of options ... idk but i think this is my reality now ...

I never thought of quitting,I want to struggle the hardship of studying to be able to gain knowledge and make myself successful in the future.Even how hard and stressful I'm still trying and doing my best to overcome because it was said,NO PAIN NO GAIN,.. I know after all these sacrifices in my studies I can bring a gift to my family a gift of education that they were giving to me now and I should the best in return. All the best!

i have thought of quitting school when i was in grade school, in high school and college. I easily get bored with classes especially if i don't like the teacher. but now i am thinking of going back to school again and get another course, but im quite hesitant bec. i might just get bored in the long run.

When I was in college I never thought of it at all. After I graduated, I went to medical school while the rest of my classmates were already applying for jobs. I kinda envied them because it looked fun what they were doing. I was in med school for only a year and a half and then I quit before the semester ended. I quit because I didnt like what was I doing. That's the main reason but I never regret my decision for quitting med school. If I didnt quit, I would miss a lot of things in my life. I dont earn as much as doctors do but I have things in my life that will make me more happy than what money can buy.

My advice would be to stay in school. Don't let your failures get you down. Having said that, school is not for everyone. I know many people who did not finish school that are making much more money than me. However, it would be best to get an education.
