I had crappy teachers for the most part.
I knew what I wanted though.
Every class had 1-2 students that were hungry to learn, rest were there because easy money or such.
Eventually dropped out and had a successful start to a career. Far outpacing those that stayed in.
That was a awhile ago.
I know some school have way better curriculums these days.
Still, I refuse to hire jr develops unless I see that same hunger to get better.
