Public school was the same for me. It wasn't until doing poorly in college that I realized that I actually needed to study to do well. Unfortunately, I had never developed study habits as I hardly had to crack a book to do well before. It was quite a struggle for me to teach myself how to learn when I couldn't just pick up the material from class. To me that illustrates the general failure of public school is not teaching children how to learn.
