[quote=Anonymous]I was bored in many of my classes in school, from early elementary through college. Partly because I was smarter than the average kid (IQ high 130's) and partly because I always did all the reading in advance, and often the kids who hadn't prepared were slowing things down with more questions, when I already understood the material. Twice, teachers and administrators wanted me to skip a grade, and both times my parents decided against it for social reasons. I have other friends who were bored a lot. Eventually most of us dealt with it by only showing up to class when we had to - and still getting straight A's. I skipped 28 days my senior year of high school and had a 4.3 GPA. (on a 4-point scale.) Some kids get bored unless they are challenged. So do some adults. I'm bored at work a lot too.[/quote]
