| I see college as a learning place. A place where you learn about everything but study topics. College is the place where I met my co-founder. It is really a great place where you can meet new talented people, learn how to work in a team. Its a place where you can have fights, fall and learn again. It is the place where you learn to present your Idea by presenting it among your friends first. They can help if you lack something. This kind of things are usually not very easy in the outside world. Because the outside world is busy competing with you. You meet so many types of people that you learn to categories the people. What kind of people are A Grade and what kind are B grade. This helps you to when you will start hiring. You say going to college is not worth it. Well another big problem with our thinking is that we think that college is just to learn the "courses". Well its not. Its a lot more than that. I am also a student in one of the most reputable colleges in India, but the way I think, learning is just a state of mind, place doesn't matter. I myself use to think that i have wasted my 4 years learning computer science, that I could have learnt all this in just a year and a half, but today as I am trying to build my startup, I understand that this all connect dots. Even I am not interested in grades at all, but i never stop working on my startup. So, As I see it, college is like a big sand ground, where you can fall, again and again, and learn to fight. And all this without hurting yourself. |
