Hey if you try to make more friends you will feel more meaningful about ur uni life.

I have been there. All studies in first year. Yes I got a high WAM and Dean's list award... but when I recall my first year , there is nothing left , all I can recall is the heavy workload of studies/pressure! That ain't no right.

I joint a music society in 2nd sem 2nd year and made lots of friends. I leant how to sing properly so won't die the next day after karoke. As a choir member, participated in the soeciety's autumn evening show. Soooo happy to be with my teammates! After each choir session, I remained behind with some friends and I played the piano while they sang some pop songs! It was really fun!!
I taught in PASS sessions and talked to many more students, feeling really rewarding. Lots of them told me that I helped them quite a lot and did really well in the exam.

Now I think of my last semester all I can feel is the happiness. No pain no stress. (Althoughh studies in this sem are heavily heavy . eg consolidation lol)
So ye I will def participate in more extra curri next sem OMG
Thanks, but how was your WAM affected after making friends in 2nd and 3rd year? Hopefully I can make good memories and good WAM. Can I hang out with you during uni? I'm going to UNSW.

r u smarter than me??!?
Well I obviously am because you did not capitalise the first word in your sentence and you spelt r and u wrong [are, you]. Also you can only end the sentence with either one question mark or exclamation mark, not a combination of a few!

The current education system in high school is so flawed. Anybody can achieve a 99.95 ATAR if they just memorise the syllabus. People who are geniuses, such as myself, in terms of thinking are at a disadvantage as I am not good at memorising slabs of text. Also the way scaling works is so terrible as I am dragged down by my intellectually inferior peers.

The only way you were dragged down is if you're intellectually inferior peers beat you internally.

I guess you were limited to second brah

Nope, you cannot judge someone's intelligence 'obviously' through the simple basis of their spelling and grammar on the internet.

For all you could now, Milky Cat is capable of thinking of innovative ideas and concepts further than yourself.

If you truly consider yourself an intellectual, perhaps one day strike up a conversation with our dear Astroman. You'll find a single talk with him is worth a thousand lessons in a classroom!

However, I have to warn you though, he is NOT single.

Shiee, do you run PASS sessions for your uni? Gun.

Yeah OP, just rock up to your first day at uni with a blazer on so you can feel superior to everyone. This also has the effect of others avoiding you so no dramas.

Not sure if OP is trolling or not, but instead of turning a blind eye against some good suggestions you don't like hearing and coming off as narcissistic, you should heed their advice. Like someone said earlier, if you want to be more sociable in university, start by changing that attitude of yours. FYI, just because you type grammatically correct, discuss "computers and the universe", and use big words doesn't mean that you're intellectually superior to your peers. (Not trying to undermine your intelligence, but I'm just saying)
