School na scam! How true?

The above mentioned statement has taken a cliche status and is very popular among young people nowadays. A lot of people think that being studious is a waste of time and effort. Is that true?

There are two parts to the decisions we make. The first part relies on knowledge, fact, logic, and what we would call common sense.
