I went through college without it. I struggled so hard, tried so hard, I was so lucky to graduate with a shit gpa. Come home, see a doc, worked over time to get a medicine and dosage that worked, and it's like night and day. I feel like my brain works now.
So because you earned your degree with your brain being broken, does that mean you kind of wasted your time absorbing nothing and the degree is just something for you to put on your resume?
This is pretty much college summed up since a lot of things you need to do at are taught on site for a lot of different careers. There is no way someone will remember how to solve a DE with FFT years after college. Instead, college prepares you how to think critically and retain information quickly.
Yup, i also went to a school I don't suggest for a field that doesn't need a degree because I was told that I needed a degree or I'd be poor forever. I will likely never fully pay off my student loans. I remember enough of the stuff that I was doing that I could still probably do the job (just like all throughout elementary and high school where I was able to soak up the knowledge) but I have no practice or experience using that knowledge correctly and going back to stuff I used to have a flimsy grasp on requires mostly relearning. It's like the knowledge I have is swiss cheese except the holes are what I know so I can skip steps here and there.
