Is education the only route to success?

Question

Give examples of success.

Answer 1

Education covers a vast array of information.  Experience, work, books, home life experience, church , friends/peers, grandparents and any mentor you have ever had.  Also bad life experiences can help in the choices you make as to your future.  Daily lie is a force that leads all of us in the paths we take.  What we tend to do with our "education" is up to us.  High self expectations will help you decide on your future successes.  Math, English and writing skills are VERY important regardless as to where you want to go with your life.  Learn to communicate on a proficient level and many doors will be opened to you.  How  you measure success will determine your future course of action.  Is it money, fame notoriety or just getting by without too many glitches?  How will your decisions affect your family and its future?  Ask yourself these questions and many more will follow.  Make the best informed decision you are capable of and press on.  GOOD LUCK !!!!!!

Answer 2

Yes. Without education your success cannot be a permanent one.

Answer 3

Not necessarily the "Education System," (i.e. you don't need to attend University or College).  Being able to do what you love doesn't always require knowledge of how cells work, or how waves cancel each other out, or where on a soap bubble you find light diffracted into violet light, or the anthropological findings of the last century, or how to treat an ankle injury, or when to buy and when to sell, or how to paint the outside of a house, or how to lay down a new asphalt road...  but it might.

Answer 4

Hello, Nearly all high paying jobs/careers require at LEAST a college education. I strongly recommend getting at least a college eduction. Some people may achieve great things without an education, but those success stories are few and far between.

PLEASE: stay in school and get a good education. NO ONE can take your education away from you!!

Answer 5

Education is not the only route to success. but it gives you an edge..

If you're talented ( in dancing, singing arts etc) then you're lucky because you wont need knowledge much.. but it's always a plus.

point is :

* education is very important but its not the most important thing

* being well educated will always be an edge that will set you apart from the rest no matter the place and time.

Answer 6

I would say that hard work and perseverance would trump education.  Abraham Lincoln would be my star example.
