Does anyone actually learn anything in college/uni?

I'm back in school for cybersecurity, and lately I've been feeling like I'm not actually learning as much as I thought I would. A lot of it is textbook material, answering questions, and completing assignments. I can get the work done, but a few weeks later I feel like I've forgotten most of it.

I also don't feel very confident that I could take what I'm learning and actually perform in a real-world situation. It sometimes feels like I'm learning something just long enough to pass the assignment/test and then moving on.

I'm wondering if I'm looking at college the wrong way. Is the point more to get the degree/certs and then develop the practical skills through labs, personal projects, internships, and eventually working in the field?

For those of you already out of college and working, how much of what you actually use day-to-day did you learn in school vs. after school? And did you feel like you forgot a lot of what you learned in college too?

Concert and Past Seizure

I had seizures when I was a baby, I had it when i was like a day old, and again when I was 2 years old during a high fever. Never again

But I haven't had it since, I'm currently 20 and I've been playing video games all my life, Call of Duty, Minecraft, etc..
I've never been to a concert and I'm going to one now and there's flashing lights (obviously, its a concert).

Is that something I should be worried about? I'm concerned I could start seizing but at the same time I haven't had a seizure since I was a baby so.. I'm not entirely sure.

I do generally feel a little disoriented from flashing lights but not like a seizure or anything, just dizzy or uneasy, anxious idk

Thank you!!
I just want some thoughts on this:)
