I was very poor at doing homework. But I always aced my tests.
Quoting: PhenomAnonymous This seems to be an extremely common trait among us. I had a rivalry with a world history teacher in high school - I refused, flat-out refused, to do the homework or even open the book in class, but I could ace his "uncheatable" tests and push my grade right back into passing territory, every single time. I would do my homework in the class before the class where it was due. Never read the assignments. Never took my books home. Turned them in and always scored "A" and always passed the tests, too. The rest of the time I used to write things... music, poetry, other stuff. I have a whole binder full of this stuff up in the attic. I went back and read some of this stuff a few months ago. One of the writings was a whole thing about how the US government was declining in control of the populous and would likely end up in civil war within 20 years. Date on it was something like '97 so not too far off, eh? What was the basis behind the project? Just personal musings or assigned work? It's my personal opinion that we are, in fact, headed for a civil war of one kind or another. However, I am rapidly becoming convinced that it's a manufactured crisis, a case of provoking us caged rats into fighting each other for artificially limited resources rather than trying to escape and attack the captors. Digging on this particular topic, I've come to understand that science and psychiatry are light years beyond what is published and taught to the general population. 20th century scientists and researchers accomplished some very, very smart things - the smartest being the ability to keep their mouths shut about it. It was just my own personal musings. I used to write things down that I was thinking about all the time. Ideas, inventions, theories, music, poetry, etc.
