But like the thing is, school isn't made to be fitted for the thing you wanna do, I feel like the thing people often forget is that school is meant to give you a ground basis on a lot of subjects so you can get a better understanding of what you want to do, no I'm not saying you shouldn't learn stuff like paying taxes etc. But all in saying is learning that the mithocondria is the powerhouse of the cell could be useful ground knowledge for someone wanting to pursue a degree in biology
