While I did learn a lot in school, I definitely agree with this sentiment. I'd get a hell of a lot more out of it if I were going now -- ten plus years later -- than I did when I was fresh out of high school.
Of course, it gets a whole lot harder once certain parts of "Real Life" kick in and the ease of dropping everything to spend all of your time learning dissolves in a cloud of uncertainty.
