agreed and i think all of us selective school kids will get humbled when we go out into the real world. getting a high atar and into a prestigious degree may be a stepping stool in terms of connections and MAYBE a higher quality of education and might correlate to success, but probably not cause it. we are all going to be screwed over by the job market, economy and the housing market lol it is just a matter of how screwed you will be. and yes kids from selective schools have a complex. i have seen it when interacting with kids from higher ranked selective schools than mine, imagine what thats going to be like for someone in a lower ranked school. also a majority of people in selective schools are rich or richer than the average. ive had someone tell me their family wasnt rich for owning 3 teslas smh. some of these kids are going to get humbled when the realise the world out there isnt that simple

also the ppl in this thread clowning on ppl of lower socioeconomic backgrounds are just plain disgusting lmao. you don't choose to be born or put into that kind of situation so idk why we are shitting on ppl that can't help it.

also to be completely real why are the ppl in a top 5 school dropping math altogether? sorry its just not believable. my school is ranked well below that and ppl had to jump through hoops to convince the school to allow them to do standard 2, let alone dropping maths altogether. the school refused to put them in a class so they all do distance ed now. typically selective schools will try anything they can to stop you from dropping maths. sure you might be able to get a 99.5+ atar without maths but those ppl are outliers and in the eyes of a selective school they don't want kids to drop math for "lower scaling subjects"

realest thing ive seen today, dk if its some form of rage bait there doing, but seriously unbelievable that people exist with some sort of mentality, like for the sake of everyone, that for some reason wants to interact with them, please start building a personality not based off your pretentious ass and academics/ the school you go they genuinely sound so insufferable.

mb yall i exaggerated my og msg slightly and people are picking it apart on the fact i said “a lot”

its not “a lot” of people from an objective standpoint but from a selective school standpoint - its a lot tbh since its so rare here and we’ve never really had people drop maths in the past so my grade is the outlier in that sense. the lowest maths at my school is advanced so people cant drop down to standard they can only drop it altogether. the school has to approve of letting them drop maths which is why all the people who have dropped it perform really well + had to pick up additional extension units in other subjects (since maths ext1 is the default) because thats the only way the school will let them drop it. yes its rare + an outlier but the point i was arguing was not that its common to drop it in selective schools, nor that maths was useless and social skills takes precedence - i was just arguing that maths isnt necessary for success and gave the example of successful people that i know who have dropped it.
