How Important do you think high school is in determining how successful you are in life? (Page 2)

Im currently in hs and I feel bad I’m only now really taking things seriously because of a lot of issues I’ll be graduating a bit later. I think last year I had a 2.5 gpa so barely passing and this year I have a 3.6 gpa, im planning on taking two ap classes next year and taking my SATs. I have this one uncle who’s the type that doesn’t believe you need an education to be successful in life and he didn’t get his high school diploma, I think he only has a GED and I don’t mean to be judgmental but when I compare the life he lives to the life people who were successful in hs, went to college, and got a degree I feel like there’s a clear obvious difference with which pathway offers more financial security. I feel like a lot of the cherry picked examples for successful high school drop outs are often people who already come from money to financially secure themselves or the rare 0.05% of people. I hope I can preform the best I can in school because I know the unfortunate reality is that school performance really does open up more opportunities for people.
