Letter grades and percentages are not standardized, therefore they are not a comparable measure of success at the national level, or even at a local level. In other words, an "A" at my school is completely different from an "A" at a different school. This is why standardized tests were created - to standardize academic proficiency. Granted, I have a 2340 SAT. 99.99th Percentile, bitches. :cool:

Well, are you up to the challenge of becoming a doctor? I thought it was a bit funny how you put "high school" teacher and "police officer" in a list that has Doctor and Lawyer. Medicine is cutthroat, kid.

Quote from Andrellis: “Yes, but if you had two people applying for a job with similar résumés... who would you hire? The Ivy League Grad or the private college grad? I'm pretty sure the answer is obvious. I am not trying to put down your school, I am just saying that it does matter.” LOL, you don't even know what you're talking about. Ivy league schools are already private, and not ALL of them are prestigious. Remember, the Ivy League is a SPORTS conference created a long time ago. At the top of…

The one I go to

The issue with same sex marriage is not so much whether it's right or wrong, but whether that decision should be made on the federal level. When decisions such as these are made on the federal, it tends to not do well later on (such as Roe vs Wade, etc). Let the states deal with it NOT the Supreme Court. In other words, let the law-abiding citizens in this democracy decide if they want this. Otherwise, modifying federal laws again and again is tempering with the constitution and spiraling downwa…

...because if there were one, I could not believe that I was not He.

It's true, I don't feel any strong emotional connection to her. And she probably doesn't either. She probably doesn't like me in that way. But as of recently, she's started kissing me on the lips -- something she avoided doing a couple weeks ago. I don't understand her though, if she really wanted something...why can't she just go out with me instead of just fucking around. Anywho, I've thought about it. If she really WAS having sex with someone else, then oh well, I'm angry at her and I pity he…

WHY DO PEOPLE LIE WHEN THEY DON'T NEED TO?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been sorta a friends-with-benefits with this girl from college, but I feel that for the "relationship" we have, we're spending WAY TOO much fucking time together, so slight feelings of jealousy are bound to be present, regardless if we're not technically "together." So she texted me "Not now" (I texted "Not now what?") and the bitch is like "Sry not 4 u." Ok, ok, I said to myself...she's probably not bright enough to realize that…

Quote from Kewlio: “Harvard if I decide to cross the pond and come to America. Oxford or Cambridge if I stay here in Britain.” Doubt it.

Go to college.

Yale isn't all they say it is. It's a nice place to get an education though...I don't mind New Haven. Though, I'd prefer an unorthodox system, such as Reed College, where you don't know your grade point average until you graduate....

Acceleration is the derivative of velocity.

The media is not overreacting. These types of mutated flu viruses that evolve from animals have been known to kill millions of humans. In 1918, the government suppressed the media so that the flu was not mentioned or exaggerated and taken with great concern. My aunt has swine flu, can you all fucking believe that? I still can't....

Wait -- how is he your bf exactly but hasn't kissed you? Are you very young by any chance? If he's your boyfriend, you should just go for it...grab his face, look at him in his eyes then kinda to his mouth and keep getting closer...it will happen...

Physics is just theory - and it can explain everything under very special conditions. It's also very confusing at the quantum level but yes it can hold the answer to the secrets of the universe!!! Read "Physics of the Impossible" by Michio Kaku and you will gain more understanding from an easy-to-read source.

I don't understand and I won't. She's confusing. Obviously we're not in a romantic relationship, but I feel that she is too clingy and spends too much time with me for the type of relationship we have, which is purely sexual. She's a bit self-centered too... She's rather a rather self-centered person, so I can't force myself to like her character either. Idk. She points out my insecurities, asks stupid questions, and is very fragile. She pretends to have "control" over me. What should I do with …

You can download the "images" (.cdi, .nrg) of these dreamcast games and BURN THEM! I LOVE THE DREAMCAST. It's a pirate's wet dream.

Quote from Catlin: “No. I have a Cert IV and I work for the DoD, I have no masters. facepalm_4.jpg” Again, your certification is petty compared to a degree, which is more difficult to attain.

The IT field without any 'qualifications' is just not what you should do. Go into "IT" if you have like a master's in Computer Science or Computer Engineering--otherwise, you're just a tool and joking yourself.

Quote from panicmayarise: “Can you explain to me how that will happen? How will socialism take the civil liberties and individual rights? I thought it was all about equality, so what's up with that? Keep in mind that I don't really support either economic theory, I just want to know more about them.” Socialism robs individual rights by making EVERYONE accountable to everyone. Even if the intentions are 'good-hearted' it is still submitting individuals to the will of others. Albeit inadvertantly.…
