My buddy dropped out of school at 14 or 15 and got really hardcore into doing and selling esctasy, crack, and weed, got caught by the cops, beat a cop up and ran, they caught him and set him to jail for 14 days. He cleaned up and quit cold turkey, got his GED and went to my school for engineering. He graduated magnum cum laude and engineer of the year and destroyed every bell curve. \n\nEdit: magna cum laude. Although my mistake is funny :)
