Anyone else ever feel like this? School should be more about preparing us for the real world, not about jumping through hoops to get grades.

Nope. However, I'm an engineer, which is quite different when it comes to higher education than the humanities and social sciences. Every class I took was to prepare me for a higher understanding of how materials work, and they all fit in the jig saw puzzle in a particular place. I've been in "school" for 9 years now, and still feel great about being here, however like I said our school is quite different, as I really don't have anymore classes and am doing experimentation and manufacturing.
