No, no, no. I wouldn't want that. You'd be one of those doctors who if accidentally gave me the wrong pill, would never admit you're wrong, plead innocent in court, and claim that I don't know anything about taking medicine because I got an UAI of 98.20.

Now that's an unfair and insulting assumption. I'm definitely not content to be mediocre, but I'd prefer to be just that than being a high-achiever with an attitude like yours. I hope Pwaryeux is right and you really are a troll.

No! NO!!! I'll tutor you! :p

Congratulations Rench! :) Good luck with tutoring.

That's quite a racist generalisation. Quite a few top students from my (selective) school were Anglo-Saxon. Parents' attitude and expectations depend not on race, but on status and environment.

Seriously, get off your high horse. A family friend of mine got 100 last year. He's currently studying overseas and is doing extremely well. My cousin came first in a national mathematics competition in China, and accelerated 3 subjects, coming first in year 9 subjects when he was in year 7...

Gosh, don't be so harsh. Having a low UAI doesn't necessarily mean you're dumb. Surprisingly some people respond better to certain environments and do better at uni than in high school. People who worked hard to scrape their way into a course don't take it for granted, and once you're in uni...

No, I think you are the one with a strange view of the UAI. While it's different for everyone depending on their standards and environment, generally an UAI above 95 is considered good, if not excellent. It does take effort to achieve 99+ but for those (I assume, like you) who have grown to...

Wow, well done KFunk and Rama! :) Congratulations.

I couldn't agree more. I liked Marshall Mathers, but even back then he had that "if you don't like my shit then you can suck my dick" song. :rolleyes: Now, every single one of his recent songs have been even lower than that. It's disgusting. I do admit that he does deserve credit for...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh man, that's just funny. Slap yourself across the head for me. On topic, behind the explicit lyrics, Stan does have some meaning.

She doesn't have the right to "reserve" you, so you're by no means obliged to co-operate. If I were you, I'd go have my fun. See how she'd like that. :p

I really doubt that would happen. You can get 100, tell everyone you got 100 and not be arrogant while doing it.

I don't know about him, but I've read that psychics tell the past of their clients by taking random stabs at vague events phrased to sound specific. These events are usually very common, for example, they could tell you "one of your ancestors died of heart disease" and there's a high possibility...

Are you serious? You're intimidated by people who feel the need to validate themselves via polls of an internet community? Don't be scared. Study-wise: You shouldn't be worried when you see people claiming they aced exams because a number of people are trying to comfort and convince...

I bet you're thinking "if I just pushed myself a little bit harder..." and perhaps regretting wasting time during year 12 (I'm not saying this because of your UAI - everybody wastes time). I hope you can learn from this crappy experience, so you don't make the same mistake in future. So...

They can't blame the school for estimating their UAIs. The school doesn't force you to study more or less after the estimate is given. It gives you an idea of where you stand, and what courses you could consider, etc. The HSC is worth 50% so you are the one to decide whether your estimate is...

*Licks lips* Thank you. :) And Merry Christmas.

Does anyone remember those fruit-on-a-stick things they have in China? Usually it's hawthorn fruit (山楂) but it comes in other fruits too and it's covered in taffy? Is it possible to buy them here? :p

I really like Be Delicious, but the guy one doesn't smell as good. My all-time fave is still Baby Doll though. :o
