As an educator/ed. researcher, I explain to families all the time that there is a difference between schooling and education. Schooling is a formal process that we all go through, it proves nothing but the fact that you can go through a process and start and finish something. It's regurgitation and requires no level of high level thinking. Education can be formal but informal if you choose to learn things by yourself. Education requires you to take maybe the skills, tools, and/or knowledge that you may have acquired in the classroom to the next level .. you aren't studying for a test anymore and you aren't trying to impress anyone. 

I do believe formal education serves an important role but the lessons you've acquired buying prop. teaches way more than just #s. It's a lot of idiots with college degrees :)
