The older I get the more absurd the years of my life wasted in schooling become. Being tested by people who mostly have never even worked the job you're supposedly preparing for using methods that don't represent the way you'll actually be working seems a complete waste of time and money. Increasingly the more talented individuals I'm working with in my job I see more and more that never even went through any of that in the first place. I can imagine a way that it would be valuable but really you'd have to start from scratch, there is too much cruft.
