The challenge is that the top 5% of any arbitrary group does not require spoon-feeding.
Or as Mom always reminded us when we complained about our teacher, "Learning is a self process. Teachers can only help provide the tools that will help you learn, but they can't make you learn." Sadly, the best tool possible that they could provide, comprehension of the material vs memorization, tended to be sadly lacking.
I guess I never really understood why, if learning was my responsibility, did I have to be babysat in the process thereof. My grades showed I was learning just fine with my approach.
