    I went to college and was totally disappointed with what was going on there. I took the documents a year later and left. Although I could study well and receive only . Now I work in IT. So far, I have never regretted dropping out of college, although I plan to find a decent educational institution and get an education as an IT specialist. Self-education is good, but sometimes you don't know where to start and you feel gaps in knowledge.
