I got a GED based on Catholic school seventh-grade education, really. I didn't make it that far.
I'm actually the last person to ask about school. I kinda ducked out at 12, before all that stuff might have happened. I left school after sixth grade and was basically home-schooled after that.
I had gone to enlist in the Navy, but they had a long waiting list and no need for high-school dropouts.
I dropped out of school after my tenth standard. But both my elder brother and younger brother are highly educated.
I got kicked out of high school, so I couldn't get into very many colleges.
I left school at 15 feeling fairly useless and not really up to scratch in my education. And I still suffer sometimes from that lack of education.
Someone thought that I dropped out of Harvard. I am a college dropout, but I dropped out of Temple University in Philadelphia.
I went to art high school and thought I'd be a painter. Unfortunately I didn't finish high school, but that's always been part of my work.
