Seth Rogen dropped out of high school when he was cast in "Freaks and Geeks." He told CNN, "I worked really hard. It's not like I dropped out of high school and just did nothing. ... I probably worked harder than most people who were just doing high school stuff, honestly. I did stand-up comedy all throughout high school. I think, honestly, if you have a career in mind that isn't academically oriented, then high school is probably not going to lead you to what you want to be."
