It is not just soaking up knowledge, you need to be able to do it in a certain timeframe, and under stress, being able to prepare to several tests at the same time. Having a degree is not that you know which way the electrons flow, but a certificate for that.

Most dropouts I saw missed 1 important property:
Being able to shut up, sit down, do what is asked, don't ask questions, and wait.
And now, 30 years later, I see it was also the most important property that was needed in careers.
