Why did Malcolm X drop out of school after 8th grade?

I know his teacher told him that an african american man couldn't become a lawyer, but is that the sole reason for him quitting?

"Little [Malcolm X] was one of the best students in his junior high school, but he dropped out after an eighth-grade teacher told him that his aspirations of being a lawyer were "no realistic goal for a ******""
