Same. I could never EVER pay attention in class.

I learned math from khan academy, and physics from my textbooks. When I exams were coming up, I would skip every single lecture to read my textbooks and do practice problems.

Did that all the way through physics undergrad, and I never would have graduated via the standard lecture + questions method.

Maybe my professors were mediocre, but I think I’m just not built for classrooms!
