There's a nice quote about this in Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e2/bc/96/e2bc964c94ddefc86a99...

A serious answer from me would be how to ask for help when stuck on a problem or understanding a topic. A lot of students (me included) will leave school with the impression that it's always better to grind through and figure things out oneself, and that asking for help is a sign of failure.

Off the top of my mind so a bit random: * the tax system * (more in-depth) anatomy and nutrition * interpersonal ethics * practical/exploratory math

Some mental health tips would have help a lot. Maybe I would have avoided so many burn outs.
