Turns out if you’re really really good at standardized tests, they just assume you’re good at everything. How the fuck do I adult, help!

You just copy what other people are doing. When I got my first real job I was just looking at what coworkers where doing and doing the same. After a while you'll understand the why and improve things etc, after a while new people will look at you.

Tests as we fo them are such an outdated way of education. Is the point to make people learn things, or judge their memorization?
