But when I told people at my WORK, they went seriously ballistic and now think I'm some crazy super-genius. It's funny to see the difference between the reaction of school and the general-public. :p
lol yeah i got the same thing. i guess people at work don't really know you as well, i don't think they actually realised that i can be kind of smart.

Oh, Anna, are you even going to get into university with this? This is disgraceful. Your cousins all got ATAR'S above 90. You are a disgrace. I am so disappointed in you. You should've studied. Great, now you've officially failed in life. You're going to go to tafe, or at best UWS. How am I going to face your aunties and uncles? Oh, Anna... :cry:

The typical asian family, made worse by competing cousins...we're in the same boat :)

Also, i dont think there's anything wrong with UWS in regards to you implying that one who has "failed in life" can go to UWS at most. I hope to do MBBS there if i dont make it to Syd.

lol, no. That's what my parents think of UWS. I think there's nothing wrong with it. That being said, it wouldn't exactly be my first choice in terms of universities.

Asian parents... *sigh*

Edit: Oh em gee, we do the same subjects except I do SOR1 instead of EX1
