Memery

You paid attention during 97% of high school!

85-100% You must be an autodidact, because American high schools don't get scores that high! Good show, old chap!

Do you deserve your high school diploma?

I wonder which question I missed? Probably the one about the worlds three biggest religions? (And I totally slept through way more of highschool than that.)

And speaking of high schools, now I go back to watching the jdrama version of Gokusen, which I am inexplicably addicted to.

I only got a 91 per cent, and now I feel like a failure ;_; I don't have a real high school diploma to begin with, only a certificate of proficiency.

HS diplomas are sometimes overrated - two of the smartest people I know don't have theirs. One of them left school early to go to a special math and science college program - yes, without getting his GED - and then managed to not complete his undergrad years. However, he started working tech support and over the past decade worked his way up the ladder and is currently making a wad o'money installing computer systems.

The other one grew up with hippie parents - they were part of the Rainbow Tribe - and dropped out of school at 16 to smoke dope, basically. At 27 she sobered up, got her GED and BA, and I met her in library school. :)
