what are you referring to? good at what?

Also, -.- . you're a wanker. don't think you're oh so much better than everyone because you do well in school.
I'm referring to your agreement that the HSC is just memorising information and spewing it out in exams. Smart students are good at this because they aren't dumb fucks like you and can follow posts in a forum and make a deduction about what someone is speaking about.
Also, you can't do this is MX2. So, your comment is void anyway.

I don't think I'm better than anyone because I do well in school... I just think you're a dickhead sometimes.

Bar maths and English, as well as a few sections in some subjects, the HSC is a memory game. Obviously some excel at memorising better then others.

But there just so happens to be something in every subject which tends to throw off said rote learners... 2U maths for example (arguably a majority rote learning course), always has some question which throws off the kids who do 343483484674475645 questions on one topic, but still don't know the concepts of that topic.

wow. big deal, i misinterpreted one sentence, this obviously means I'm completely brain dead and forget what I was doing when i wrote that comment, argh i don't need to give excuses. MX2's only one subject, there's a lot more that require memorising and applying info under exam conditions. The point stands, you still made a derogatory comment about my capabilities.

why do i bother arguing with such fucking knobs.

Well I know for a fact it's better than yours. If you're dumb now that's not going to magically change in 5 years from now. I look forward to you cleaning my house.

I can honestly tell by the way you approach things that you're an illiterate, socially awkward loner. When you eventually realise this you'll commit suicide. Hey, you might even take someone else down with you and see them suffer as well.

Bragging rights for about 2 secs. The 2 secs meaning results day and/or the day the school organises for Year 12s to spill the beans on their results (if that day doesn't take place on results day itself). No one cares after that. Hell, even a lot of employers don't care about your uni transcript so why would they worry about your ATAR?
