Is it true that James Ruse students are forced to do activity because healthy people are more alert? I've heard some weird stories from that school, anybody know any?

Most weird stories about James Ruse aren't true.

 

[korry]

You mean they dont lick toads to expand their mind

I heard they make their own 'home made' pillz to stimulate themselves..and the school actively sells them to kiddies.....after consultation with a JR friend, i found out it was untrue

Do the students at JR get better or worse relative to the state? I heard that all (most) of the year 7 students are top~2% - but the median UAI is 99.35 - does anyone know?

That median mark just about corresponds to top 2%. However there will always be some slackers who get <97 because they don't care, and there is only so much a student can get better before they reach their complete potential, while you can get almost infinitely worse.

your business teacher sounds like he/she talks a lot of shit

no they don't send letters home if the child is unfit, but yes if they don't pass the fitness test (everyone does it in PE), i.e run a mile under 10 minutes they are encouraged to join an early morning fitness group

Well a mile in 10 minutes, you have to be joking thats only 9.6km/hr for 10 minutes.

i drive my sister to tutoring at JR. there is this massive metal frame with radar relays and electrical wires, basically a substation, right next to the school. is there a possibility of eletromagnetic mutations which may contribute to the accelerated growth of their minds? =|

 

[picaresque]

Everyone at Ruse acts as a host to alien parasites with enhanced intellectual capacities. The radiation is what the aliens feed off. But let's keep that a secret, hmm?

 

[KarmaKitten]

people are too obsessed with that school.

 

[santaslayer]

Because most of us cant get into it!

omg, I'm like totally good friends with this girl that went to that school, and she says that every tuesday and thursday mornings, there's school assemblies where like a motivational speaker comes in and hypnotises them into thinking that the outside world is evil and they all drone "we are in your service, james ruse" and then at lunchtimes on those days they sit there doing quadratic equations

.....okay, i just made that up
