well even more so if you're failing. I know that sucks all on it's own, but if school isn't your thing, that's even more of a reason to get a job and make some money. Go to a technical school when you graduate or get your G.E.D. You can make good money without going to college. Technical schools like, well I can only think of ITT around here, all give you a good chance to get a profressional occupation without the years and years of expensive college tuition.
