Calculate yourself yes how old he is now. Success with Facebook, Zuckerberg through a long journey. He was listed as a college dropout student from Harvard University. Zuckerberg willing to get out of the world's most popular universities, for the sake of career down. But, it proved all that was not in vain. Now, see many Facebook users in the world?

Moreover, after 12 years of DO, Zuckerberg still ultimately still graduated by the campus that he left behind. He got honorary degrees aka honoris causa.

Steve Jobs, CEO APPLE

If this one is definitely not foreign. Yes, the boss of the world's best mobile phone company, Steve Jobs or the original name Steven Paul Jobs ever recorded as a student of Reed College, Portland. However, this status only lasts for one semester. Although he no longer holds the status of a student, Jobs does not stop learning. In fact, when he had to absorb knowledge by lying on the floor of his partner's room, returning bottles of soda for money, and getting free food from the local monastery. The proof? One of the ranks of CEO dropped out has been a major contribution in the world of technology to the entire world community. Jobs, once assumed so confidently, that if he did not attend a single lecture at Reed College, until now Mac would not have any printed or lettered letter with parallel spacing.

Bill Gates, CEO of MICROSOFT

Lastly, Bill Gates. Despite not serving as Microsoft CEO in 2008, Gates continues to chair Microsoft in a non-executive manner. Recorded in history throughout 1995 to 2009, except 2008, Bill Gates became the world's richest man ranked first. Bill Gates's background in the world of education is also not much different from the four CEOs above. Bill Gates was a dropped out student from Harvard University after two years of college and close friends with Steve Ballmer, his business partner in setting up Microsoft. To succeed, the five great men above prove two things. First, the curriculum in school is not the limit for everyone deserves a chance as a successful person. Second, what needs to be applied in real life is action, not discourse. For this one, what percentage can be obtained from the process of understanding theory in the classroom? So, what about the school discourse 8 hours a day? Just believe that whatever the final decision of our Education Minister will bring good to all parties.
