If you could know your fate in this class, or in high school(where you got into college), or in life (your death), would you want to know, considering it would make all the "decisions" you make inconsequential?
If I could know my fate in this class I would want to know because then I wouldn't be concerned about if I was doing enough work or trying hard enough in the class. If I knew I was going to get an F then I wouldn't waste time reading each homework assignment carefully or stay up late finishing an essay because I would know that they were inconsequential. However, if I knew I was going to get an A, I would know that everything I was studying for and working hard on would turn out well, and I wouldn't worry about it at all.
If I could know my fate in high school, I would choose not to because if I didn't get into a good school I would be disappointed years early. I would spend the rest of my high school career thinking about things I could have done better and being worried about what will happen in my life. I wouldn't want to spend so much extra time worrying about what will happen to me before I have to. If I knew that I was going to get into a good college I would not have any motivation at all and spend the rest of high school doing nothing, which would not be good.
If I could know my fate in life, I would not choose to because then I would live my whole life differently. My entire life would lead up to the exact moment I am going to die, and that would affect the way I would drive my life. I would rather just live my life without interruption than to try to choose how to spend my final days or weeks. Also, I would be extremely nervous in the months leading up to my death, and that is not how I want to spend the end of my life.
