I'm not familiar with Belgium, only the US, but why do you resent the way college teaches?

There is some busywork and some BS up front, but if you suck it up, pay your dues and prove to your professors that you're good (I'm assuming you're good), then it quickly turns into not-BS, provided you're at a decent college.

I can learn things quicker without going to college. College also teaches a lot of things I don't need right now. I'm a strong believer that one should only learn things when they're needed and useful. You're much more focused then, which results in a better learning experience.
