Sorry Oldsub, But I totally disagree! The whole point of school both High School and ultimately College is to make you think critically. Essays, papers, or epic stories are not really about the subject but about the knowledge you get about yourself and your own skills. If the teacher give a "C" because s/he does not understand the real point of school then I don't believe we should bend ourselves to make it interesting for s/he.

Or course if you could write a paper good enough to change a F&#d lover into a Chevy lover I would give you an "A" for the class!

Sorry to be so opinionated on this but there are only a few things in life that I believe in myself, my love for cars, my love for music, and education.
