when I graduated high school years ago there was one tard who began to ask himself why we were all leaving and he was staying

This. Women without graduate degrees are the biggest market for books, and I think we all know what that means. I remember a few years back some progressives crowing about black women being the demographic that reads the most books, and wondering if they sincerely didn't know that wasn't a good thing.

I would argue some classes might be harder to fail than others, but even not failing a class doesn't mean you digested it's content. I mean surely there are people who just memorize a lot of stuff and forget about half a year later.
