Keraksiz Darslar:
Looking back when I was still in high school, one of the things I regret is not doing the extra work for most of the school classes. If you are studying at a school, one of the common misconceptions about school curriculum is that “you don’t have to study everything, just study what you want, other classes are (keraksiz darsliklar)”.
Especially when you are in the application season for colleges, you just give up on the school classes. I think that trend took off and influenced a lot of school kids to ignore the importance of school curriculum which prepares them for the life beyond (college, networking, ect). The school curriculum makes you multi-dimensional coming from STEM, math, social science and ect. Knowing at least the basics will help you tremendously later in college or professional life for networking.
You can argue about the teachers which I might agree to an extent but it is all about self-teaching and asking & discussing with the educators, once you have the understanding. It is all about coming prepared, having questions and pre-assumptions about the subject.
One thing I saw at college was the guys who are good at everything by just focusing on improving themselves. You can talk to them about anything. Be it what to eat, they are the dietologists; ask about skincare, they are the dermatologists, ask about training, they are athletes and academics? They can entertain you with any subject you bring to them. Yet this is not the end, they can play musical instruments, speak 3-4 languages and some other hobbies.
Coming to college, one of the most influential thing I learned or adapted is to have interest in everything and have that willingness to learn more. This, in its own place, removes judgmental and counter-revolution part of you making you to listen more, adapt and upskill yourself.
At the end of the day, there is no “Keraksiz darslar”, there is unwillingness to learn and be exceptional.
