dbass,
Listen to roachboy - he is right on. And do what your teachers ask of you even if it isn't what you want. You are making tools right now, and you want the sharpest knives and flattest levels you can get, right? Remember that when you are done with school and your compositions only answer to yourself (and audience and commissioners, of course). Your teachers aren't giving you the ends, they are giving you the means - they're not giving you blueprints, only tools. When you are making your own music you want to have Batman's utility belt full of great tools that you can pull out whenever you need them.
