I think it was a knock on public school, not the compulsory participants. I have no problems with it and I went to public school, public university and private law school. My intelligence comes from genetics mostly but I have learned through reading on my own, parental involvement, reading on my own and parental involvement.
For the OP:
One of my mentors helped me with challenging myself and helped me put in perspective. Sometimes the differences in the very smart and the brilliant is being able to admit that your wrong and submit to logic and reason that was previously counter to your own assumptions. Challenge yourself, accept defeat and learn from it.
