    University, same thing but a grander scale. First, I chose an easy university. Then I chose an easy major. Then I chose easy professors and easy classes. Five years later, hello graduation.

    The point is that some people are super focused on taking AP classes and padding their "resume" (of sorts) with extra-curricular activities and whatever all to impress university admissions people.

    I guess if you want to go to the top universities you need to do this. But most people don't go to the top universities.

    If you just want to go to a regular university you can forget all that nonsense. And where are these people who took the AP courses in my high school? 80% of them still well within driving distance to that high school. Me and my remedial education are 5,000 miles away. Pwned.

    And yeah, seriously you could choose to take remedial classes instead of the regular ones and that's what I did. I think everybody else there pretty needed the remedial classes, though.

    Very few people graduate in four years anymore. I did it in four and a half, actually but I took summer classes every year so let's say five years.

    maybe that's because you never bother to apply yourself mr. "my job is so great because I only do a few hours work every day"

    No doubt about it. I never studied in my life. I got through school and university due to a combination of natural genius and figuring out the easiest routes to success. I took remedial classes in high school even though I rightly should have been taking AP classes. Remedial classes are easier, though. A lot of the people in these remedial classes were barely literate. Some didn't speak English. How could I possibly fail in such a class? Answer: I didn't.

    Maybe if you hadn't taken all your classes with the paint-huffers you would have figured out the mysteries of interacting with women. Maybe not though.

    I know people who graduated in 5 years and took summer courses.

    This is because they were part of a Physical Therapy program that involved basically as much anatomy and medicine as a good chunk of med school, as well as spending summers cutting up cadavers and interning at clinics.

    There is imaginary moonshine in it. It's an opaque object so there's no point in modeling the liquid.
