Things become different once
you leave secondary school. Most of the learning does not
take place in school. They only teach you the bare minimium when
you attend those short hours. The rest, you are expected to study,
research, revise on your own, after all, you are slightly grown up
and no need to be spoon fed.
This is the time where some people cannot adapt, still thinking
that the school will take care of them.
But still, the curriculum shouldnt be so hard that you need to
study 24/7. Working on the weekends is still fine.
