FWIW, I learned virtually nothing in music class and nothing at all in art 
class. Art class, such as it was, consisted of the teacher trying to come up 
with rules about what you drew to ensure it occupied the entire 45-minute 
class to draw it.

And while I took and understood a great deal of math, it wasn't until 
physics class that I suddenly said "Oh, *that* is what an integral is for!"
