I Heard that some Pre’ffers’ like parrots in their classes it helps to get others to think outside the box! AND get Better ideas than what the teach tells. GOOD ones anyway!
well, in most classes the teaches want students to parrot what was said in class. original thinkers get lower marks
~ It depends on the prof. I had one psychology professor who marked down people that simply parroted. It was a difficult course, and when I studied, I put things into my own words to make sure that I understood them. Turned out to be the right thing to do. I got a ‘B’ in his class, and his grad assistant told me that a ‘B’ from him was like an ‘A’ from anyone else.

Figures. That amount probably doesn’t even cover all four years! (Should be closer to $150k.)

Would have done well in grad school where the road to success is parroting the professors.
