I'm enjoying it so far. It's definitely better than high school was. One of the things I like about doing the degree is that I think the general education classes make me a better artist. I don't always like that part, but I feel like I benefit from it, if that makes sense?
But yeah, if you just want to get smarter on some specific subjects, you can just take a class here or there that's about what you want to learn. Some of them have prerequisites, though - like they won't let you jump right in on calculus if you can't prove you're solid on algebra first.
