How many of you are going to actually go and ring your friends and compare results?

I'm actually thinking THAT far ahead.... I really don't want to compare. I don't want to listen to a person that did no study get 99, or have my parents compare my results to other students..... you know? regardless of how well or crap you went....

Nobody cry or whine in public

Nothing is worse than a person that think its the end of the world because they got 89 when 89 is a great mark for someone else...

yeah i know what you mean.. I am interested in what other people got to see how i went comparitavely but those who boast.. or are upset with 99.85 do irritate me

our school principal is having a bbq on monday so we can all go and tell him our results.. i really dont want to.. especially if they are dissapointing because all the teachers will question how you studied and i'm sure its the last thing we want to be talking about

when people call others i really wonder what they're thinking.
personally, i'd like time for everything to settle in before i get phonecalls and receive contrived reactions.

one of my friends has already told me she'd call. at least its a warning.

Yes, even Einstein would proclaim that success is relative...

I really don't care to compare with other people; if someone runs up and tells me what they got spontaneously then I'll share in return (if I like them) but I'm not going to run around bugging people to tell me what they got and I'm not going to give in to annoying people who will bug me. I'll share what I got with family, my IT/IPT teacher and my best friend.

If someone ran up to me and told me, I'd say "That's nice." :)

LOL.
No-one wants to compare but the actual UAI is a comparitive mark.
But its not as if your not gonna be told anyway what everyone else got, there's no running away from it. I know my parents will watch tv and on today tonight or the news they'll have "outstanding premiers awards" people on it or something and they'll be like "why didnt you get that too?".
At my school they email you telling you what everyone else got, and then there's the local newspapers too.
