How did you do in school /jp/?

Did you go to university/college?

How have your results affected your life? Are they a primary reason that you are a NEET?

>> No.7825959

>How did you do in school /jp/?
I scored higher than 96.65% of the high school student of my year in my final year.

>Did you go to university/college?
Yes, double degree Commerce / Business Systems

>How have your results affected your life?
I managed to get into a job after graduating, 2.5 years later I am now in the top 9% of the population in terms of yearly income according to the tax office.

>Are they a primary reason that you are a NEET?
I would say so, I spent too much time studying and playing MMORPGs rather than talking to girls.

>> No.7825958

I did alright in primary school. I had my few share of drama... but overal, it was alright. High school though is another matter which I'm not going to get into.

I went to neither. I was given the choice to get into college... but as soon as I hit an interview, not only did I choke it badly, but I also didn't get accepted in.

And I'd also not know the answer to that last question. I have a supicious feeling that if my life in high school went differently, I'd probably be a normal person and not on here typing this message.

School I was the top of my year. Highest marks in pretty much everything. However I was not picked on for this due to there being more socially incompetent people than me there....this was in the UK

I went to High School in America and that went badly. I was practically a recluse and spoke to very few people. Did well marks wise but...

Went to uni in UK but due to being in America was not granted loans. I have had to drop out pretty much ;_;

So despite being "academically smart" I have not got anywhere in life and am lonely and sad.

Well I won't go in the "exact" details... so I'll shorten it so that you can get a basic gist of it.

- Get bullied all my life during high school due to my big mouth and get in a few fights at school (and get beaten up).

- Get suspended a few times because most of the bullying results me fighting back.

- Some of the bullying wasn't due to my "big mouth" and even if it was months ago I did it, they still picked on me because I always told a teacher.

- Get called names (which is a common matter which I'm sure most people have suffered).

- Have been tormented by a group of older girls to which I could do nothing about.

- Because of my big mouth, I couldn't make friends because I was one of those people who didn't "want" to mix with others and prefered being alone mostly.

- Missed an entire year of high school when the bullying got out of hand. But I think that was the council's fault because they were lazy bastards who took ages (I kid you not) on getting me to another school.

- Because of that, it made me fall to the point I didn't "give" a fuck about school life at all. At times I'd just flunk it and head to the library... it was also the reason why I failed all my exams and dropped out because I just gave up on studying.

That's the gist of it. I may be crazy on saying this... but if I could change history, I'd change what shite I went through in high school and possibly my mouth.

Pretty awesome up until high school, got the best result in school in the general exam at the end of middle school, went to meeting with the mayor for the best students from different schools in the city and all. All that without actually studying or doing almost any homework.
So, understandably, once I went to high school(and I chose a really good one) I suddenly found myself unable to keep up the way I used to before - particularly since my mental health deteriorated and I spend most of high school in heavy depression, and only didn't off myself because the people and teachers in my school were really cool. It got so bad that if not for some teachers doing their best to help me I might have had to repeat a year once or even drop out. But I somehow managed to graduate, and at the nationwide exam at the end of school did pretty damn well - well enough to get into my university of choice with no problems at all. Actually I could've gotten into pretty much any technical university save for some of the most exclusive courses.
And then after half a year I dropped out, and I didn't regret it in the slightest in the few years since.

What I mean is that back then, I had a way with words that would make me the most hated prick in the school.

- "Fuck off!"

^That's the kind of stuff that I'd normally say if someone tried to get close to me and I didn't know them. If I didn't say it, I'd just tell them to "go away" or "leave me alone". It was another reason on why people could pick on me easily and insult me.

If we were to go a few months further into the future, I wouldn't say those things at all now. But just giving them a look that says "you aren't wanted here" could tell they could pick on me more. So if I could "man up" and "stop" being negative, stuff would have went differently.

I deserved it, I know.

Grade school went badly for me, as did middle school. high school was fucking fantastic, but I had to forging signatures on community service forms to pass.

College always goes okay to start with, but depression eventually set in and kept me from attending. I've started college twice (almost three, but my application was rejected), but can't ever stick it out for more than the first year.

One of the best in middle school. Dropped out of high school IB (International Baccalaureate) curriculum due to depression, even though I easily passed the enterance exam. NEET/hikki for 1 year and now studying again (2nd year just started).

Also, as someone in a similar situation, I want to start taking control of my life.

In high school, I was a straight-F student. I utterly hated school and ditched nearly every day and hung out in Barnes & Nobles reading books.

However, when senior year came around, I transferred out of public school into a home school and did infinitely better; I even became a straight-A student. By the time I was 20 (2 years after my supposed-of graduation), I had enough credits to graduate.

Right now, I'm 21 and I haven't gotten a chance to begin college yet, because I've been moving around, got a job, and trying to sort out the shit I call a life.

I did great, top student in my highschool, got honored by the principal. Only ever had very few but good friends who all left school earlier, never really felt the need to expose myself to the real world that much. Spend time with videogames, had a blast.
>Did you go to university/college?
Yes, got a master degree and a state exam. Also got addicted to anime/collecting figures/playing VNs during that time because i was just bored, passed all tests no problem. Still felt no need to get involved with anyone. The girls i had an interest in were all taken, felt bad. Got a few friends out of it, but lost interest after graduating.
>How have your results affected your life? Are they a primary reason that you are a NEET?
>Not a NEET, but a teacher now. Its fun but the first 2 years are very hard to endure where i live (germany) due to low wages for beginners and a truckload of theory sessions and shit. Im so tired i basicly abondoned the real world, just doing my thing for now. I'll endure the beginners phase, get a really high wage afterwards and start having parties with lots of crack and whores I mean good music and nice girls... :p In the meantime i enjoy what i allways did, games and japanese products ^^ So i kinda feel like a NEET with a fulltime job.

Did ok in primary/middle school, fucked up highschool pretty bad but still got into a uni, studied history and archaeology, graduated last year.
Fast forward to today, im working a dead end job at mcdonalds thats killing my health (90% night shifts, sigh), saving up money to move somewhere else. Even if nothing changes, and it probably wont, i'll feel better after trying.
Worth noting - /jp/ is partly responsible for me still being alive at this point, if it wasnt for my dolls, i'd seriously have nothing to come home to and would've killed myself a while ago.
And no, i don't think my educational achievements have anything to do with how i am now. Im not a neet, im employed. Im not even socially retarded, im just so tired of having to deal with people. At least dolls don't start shit with you for no apparent reason...
