Why? Why do numbers have to decide where we're headed? I was always told that we go to school to learn. Well, If I learn a lot and get poor grades, I'm "Not doing what I'm supposed to" So basically if I get bad grades, I'm not learning, even if my tests prove the opposite. I don't get it. I think the system needs to be re-designed. I think tests are more important than homework. In fact, I think our grades should only be based on tests. They're the only thing that proves we learned something. And nowadays, its like knowledge does not matter anymore. All that matters is an unfair number that does not have anything to do with intelligence and ability, and degrees that show how much of this bull you've been through. I'm starting to hate school. And then there's the SAT, which is classist and unfair. Ontop of that, the whole money thing is bull. Why should someone from a different town in the same state & country have a better education just because that town's populace has a higher income & lower population? (link)

Yep, true!
School isn't fair but if you think about it... After all of the tests and homework etc, its gonna lead to a decent job. There's always something that your good at, it could be if your really bad at maths then you might be great at art or you could be good at science and rubbish with music. You have just got to find what that something is! A lot of kids feel pressured that they have to do and be the best at everything but you have got to ask yourself, what do I want?! So trust me, as soon as you leave school and enter reality, you will be wishing to go back! :)
