Is there a point to school? 
ErrantX: The problems with modern schools are manyfold. Highlights:- it's designed for the slightly-below-average student. Even the average students get bored, but only the very brightest realise they can do their own learning.- it's currently often treated as somewhere to dump your kids for 14-15 yearsIt's perfectly possible to work through the system, though, and not work at company X. Some tips (from someone who managed it):- dont take anything too seriously- university is for fun, learning is incidental (assuming your competent enough to get a degree) [seriously: treat it like this and you will learn a lot more]- ignore recruitersAnd finally: it's fine to buck the trend. You either end up being a bit radical and  rebellious (yeh!) or certain people just roll their eyes at you. Neither hurts too much (the first one just gets you laid more).Quitting Uni to do a startup etc. is fine and make that choice if uni isn't for you. However I'd seriously consider it - you develop a lot during the next few years. You'll make contacts, learn a lot about how people interact and probably make some really important friends. Most importantly your getting away from "home" and fending for yourself.Even if you end up doing the same thing in 4 years as you would do now (if quitting) it's not always a waste of time :)
