The thing that makes a good student is not knowing everything, but understaning how to give back exactly what teachers want to hear and kissing ass like it's second nature.

I realized this sad fact towards the end of my Senior year english class. My papers with original thought got average grades, and my papers which parroted the teacher got near perfects. I stopped trying to be insightful and simply wrote papers on what the teacher said in class; my grade skyrocketed sadly.
