Guy With Perfect SAT Score Dropped Out

Pre-College Topics High School Life

<p>This pretty much shocked the entire student body. The senior with the highest SAT score in the school dropped out today. It’s pretty strange too because the second closet score to his was a 2030. He apparently had a 36 on the ACTs as well and felt that school was a joke. </p>

<p>I knew him, but not very well. The guy is brilliant, but had a class ranking that did not match his scores and his intelligence. He was in the news a few times because he owned a website that some large company tried to buy out. According to his friends, he bought some property in Kentucky and is going to be a rancher or a farmer.</p>

<p>Good for him.</p>

3

<p>That’s… wonderful?</p>

4

<p>Well good. If he was in the news you obviously could provide links and proof</p>

5

<p>that’s phenomenal.</p>

6

<p>So, less competition?</p>

7

<p>Reminds me of Holden from Catcher in the Rye. He probably also hates the world.</p>

8

<p>he should write a book, lol.</p>

9

<p>That guy’s pretty rad. When people here drop out of school, they get jobs at McDonald’s instead of a ranch in Kentucky.</p>

10

<p>He probably played Farmville.</p>

11

<p>^Haha</p>

<p>That’s a bummer:/</p>

12

<p>…he went to be a farmer? lol, why…? :|</p>

<p>sounds like he could be the next bill gates.</p>

13

<p>or the next big dumbass…</p>

14

<p>Well good for him. He was obviously smart enough to realize what he really wanted to do in life, and knew that he could make it on his own without going to college.</p>

15

<p>If that’s what he wanted to do in life, good for him, you DON"T need college to be successful.
I know of many people who didn’t go to college and are more successful than many college graduates. =)</p>

16

<p>i guess…but he could have used his brilliance to do invent something useful for humanity.
BTW why would he take the SAT and ACT if he knew he was gonna drop out.</p>

17

<p>But I don’t really think its a good idea to drop out of high school</p>

18

<p>Maybe he didn’t know he was going to drop out, maybe he was undecided, or maybe he wanted a little reassurance. </p>

<p>Honestly, sometimes I want to runaway, leave this life, go somewhere new…</p>

19

<p>he clearly has a successful internet business, and doesn’t want to go through the motions of college because college doesn’t fit his goals. i applaud him.</p>

<p>Internet business?</p>
