Im going no where, im sick of school i wanna go work on getting myself a degree at a institute?

Question

I live in NZ so everything else is different compared the folks in the US. I am my second to last year ( year 12 ) repeating mostly year 11 subjects because i failed and didnt get enough NCEA Credits for Level 1 ( National Cetificate of Education 1) , ive already made plans, ive planned to study at school until i get my NCEA 2 and leave and go for a apprenceship in IT for a year ( you study and get payed ), then go to the local insitiute and study 2-3 years so i can get a diploma/degree in IT . I wanna be a IT Techician/Consultant. Alot of people at my high school drop out and head and study somewhere else. I am taking mostly subjects that arent benefiting me and have taken subjects i dont really need because the subjects i have taken arent necessary to get into my career. But i barely learn anything,i cant focus, i am sick of school it just doesnt teach me anything and i think im just wasting my time. I get bad grades mostly and sometimes good..

Answer 1

u wanna have the cake and eat it? then u hv to new mental model on studies and a new mindset - nothing comes easy.  decide what u like and concentrate on it.  or invent something like bill gates or steve job then u can be lazy.  there are no shortcuts if u r not a genius.  

maybe get out of nz - try aust or usa or france.

take care
