the thing is, I don't see why you should do acceleration unless you're *really, really* good at a subject. the whole POINT of acceleration is that it takes people who are above standard in a certain area, and allows them to... well, be accelerated, and do harder work because they're capable of it. It's not meant to be a way to give you two goes at your hsc, and give you more free periods in yr 12. I especially object to the "oh well, if I don't do well I can always do it again" attitude - would you put that on your actual HSC year?
sorry, I'll get off my soapbox now. :\

I can't believe everyone's so afraid of being labeled 'Nerd'.
It's the best title. People are calling you smart, how cool is that?
Anyway, accelerants are nerds, simple. They're smart, and thus they're nerds.

Um, are you calling me jealous? Because I do acceleration.
i totaly agreeOriginally posted by glycerine

right back at youOriginally posted by Misturi
I love you.

kool- so which grade did u skip?
i wouldn't mind being called a nerd if it didn't have so many negative connotations. wouldn't u rather be called "intelligent"?Originally posted by KeypadSDM

The supreme irony here is that you're the one discriminating against smart people. Nerd is a cummulative label, it can combine with other labels. In my experience, the word nerd wasn't used to imply negative ability in non-academia, just an ability in academia. Conversely, geek, well, geeks can't do anything.Originally posted by jessum
no way are all accelerants nerds... some of us are balancedhehe lots of ones i know are sporting pros, going to nationals and everything well i actually only know one like that... but many who are still really good at sport.

Well originally they were acceleration formulas, so following the trend and to remain it with school, I chucked in work=change in energy.Originally posted by jessum
ok.. im lost, why are there physics formulas here?
