Strudent with great rates (94% Overall)

Hate Ancient Greek and Music
Love History, Maths, Literature & Physics (IT sucks in public schools, useless knowledge cause we are taught about how compilers and Interpreters work but no practice till high school [we will be taught Pascal untill the next modification to the educational system, last was on 1998])

P.S. Pascal is only taught on Technology zone. From the second grade of high school we choose a lecture zone. There are three "Philology" for potential philologers, psychologists etc, "Positive" for Maths, Physics and Chemistry and finally the "technology" zone for Computer programming/ service, web design, networks & telecoms. Those zones are to enhance our entry to the university in specific sectors. We are also taught some general classes, like Maths, History, Literature, Ancient Greek, Latin, English, German or French, Algebra etc

I installed carpet for 20 years, went back to school, got my degree and now I am the IT director of a small hospital. I have a job where I don't have to "work". Pretty sweet huh?
