<p>I know what phr34k is talking about. But stupidity itself is such a subjective quality and is relative to the person ‘judging’ the ‘stupidity’ of another. You consider the girl stupid, and the girl considers you. And who is indeed? </p>
<p>I find it funny how I can justify the general views on education as the most appropriate and at the same time condemn them and propose my own ‘correct’ views. </p>
<p>But I still don’t like the surety which is present in the all the replies against the OP. You guys are way too sure of your convictions. And phr34k, I have had this experience in school, and I have learned that you basically need to or at least try to maximize whatever you get from your school and society. Of course, you might need to compromise in some situations. But of all the so called ‘dissidents’ made ‘their way’ through the reality. Thus, I would say, in the end, form your own opinions and views. Who are you going to follow? The Bill Gates will have their own opinions, the Ruskin Bonds will have theirs (FYI, Ruskin Bond said he has a lifelong allergy to exams in a recent interview, now isn’t he partial to others?), and the Narayan Murthy their own. And since this is my opinion, not yours, you don’t need to follow this as well (sort of paradoxical, eh?).</p>
