Did you take highschool seriously, meaning did you study and actually try to do well?

Yes

Yes for a year or two or three

Nope

Yes, I did. Aside from mathematics, I received straight A's in all subjects. I found high school boring because it was not challenging enough. My favourite parts of high school were music theory class and band practice; the rest of the time I was usually bored.

Yes I did. And now I reap the benefits of having done so.

I took it pretty seriously and I did well. I could not say the same for elementary school, but I did take it seriously in high school.

I am gifted. I didn’t put forth much effort.
The combination made me a ‘C’ student.

In my own schooling, I treated high school as a “foundation stage,” not the finish line.

I did take it seriously, but not perfectly. I focused on:
- Building strong basics in math, writing, and reading.
- Learning how to study: note‑taking, spaced review, asking questions.
- Exploring interests through clubs and projects.

What matters most isn’t being flawless, but using high school to develop habits: curiosity, discipline, and time management. Those habits helped far more than any single grade later in college, my MBA, and my career.

I took it seriously, but looking back at it, the only useful thing I learned was typing and some algebra.

High school is when I started taking school seriously. Before that, I did okay in school but definitely didn't strive for excellence.

I didn't study at all... but high-school was just "easy" for me

[Malwi93]

I didn't see the point I only studied to pass

[DryGermanGuy]
