For sure. and on top of thatm, I think university tends to overdevelop one skill (i.e. logical skills vs english type skills) - I noticed since grade 12, my memory for trivial facts have plummetted and my reading speed is about down 50%. To me, I can do surface integrals and coupled non-linear differential equations, but I can't make a CP post without 10 spelling mistakes. If I had to re-do english 20 today, I would flat out fail the coarse.
