It's important to me and I'm a hack at normal job type stuff, so I buckle down when going through the school house. One trick pony. "What's the problem?"

Not all footprints are the same though. New hires can spend a 1/4 of the year in training while people already here can can knock a new type out in just over a month. If training is a month long, taking a full day off without studying isn't an option for me.
If you fail anything, you really don't want it to be the KV.
