[quote=Beckee]I don't understand what is so wrong with admitting this fact. It would be great if everyone was capable of getting a college education, but wishing this were so won't make it so. I believe that our education system has a duty to help students discover what they're good at --- even if it's not something that's taught at college.
I know that it would have been nice if my college scholarship wasn't locked into engineering, a subject in which I had absolutely no interest.
So, instead of learning something I wanted to learn about in college, I was stuck in something. I had to make that decision prior to college to get the $$$ and if you dropped out of that college to pursue another major.
I had no idea what engineering was, only that my parents thought it would be a good idea for me to do it.
So, I took up somebody's space who would have actually wanted to do engineering and I wasted everybody's time and money.
