There are also a lot of smart students in scientific disciplines never engaging their brains, because they're actively taught not to.

One of my lecturers turned around the other day and announced, "You are not to criticise research papers when you answer exam questions; you personally do not have the data to refute them. You must present both sides of the argument, with the data to back up your points." In other words, go out and read through the reading list, repeat that back at me, and you can have your first (an A grade equivalent).

I quite like the specialisation. It meant I picked the stuff I was good at, and got better grades as a result - like with the Harry Potter kids and their NEWTs, to pick a fandom example. And then I smoked something funny the day I was picking what to do at University. Silly, silly me.
