Grades can't accurately tell a person's intelligence. They just tell how hard they try.

Are people who have a different point of view than you dumber? I mean this isn't the first time you've said stupid stuff like that, you also said religious people were stupid.


I never said they were stupid because they didn't agree with me, I said their words didn't relate to the question asked, and because they said immigrants come from Mexico and terrorists come from Iraq

I am relatively smart, I have a strong vocabulary, a good grasp on grammar, and I can do math and problem solving quickly. My friends call me a genius, because they can't do jack !@#$. I even go to an "advanced" school, and all but about 3 of my fellow classmates are dip!@#$'s(small class sizes here). My city has a large amount of adolescents, and we only utilize one public middle school that is out of shape and very small. You either go to private schools, go out of town, or go to the !@#$hole that is Briscoe.

"advanced" school


Advanced schools are a joke. They think that more work is more advanced, and they treat you like your 6. I was taking this exam for this "challenge" school, they gave me AN HOUR PER QUESTION and the questions were like, "What is 1+9*-6"
I ended up asleep after 2 questions (2 hours) and left the room when I woke up.

Grades can't accurately tell a person's intelligence. They just tell how hard they try.


They don't even tell that, they just tell how much of the busy work you did. I have had many classmates who epicly FAILED the tests/quizes, but because of all the busy work their grade was padded and they got a B in the class. Where as I do 1/3 of the busy work and pass the test, people would be very surprised to know that I get bad grades sometimes simply because I can't force myself to do stacks and stacks of busy work for a year. As for the intelligence, I'd say that in proportion, there are more stupid people than ever, but there are some smart people, but we are quickly being intergrated into the mainstream of people, thus equalizing the average IQ of people. Don't really see much hope when people can't think for themselves and expect to find everything they need on myspace or facebook, or when they believe that everything the government does is to hurt its citizens.

Carrers? You mean people who care the most? Not entirely sure what you mean by that.

reqire doing stacks of stupid things for hours at a time


Oh, I do what I need to to pass the class, my mom thinks im constantly going to fail but I know what I have to do to pass. If something NEEDS to be done, I can do it no problem, there's a purpose in it. When it's a study guide for something you've been doing for the past 2 weeks, then it's completely unneccecary and pointless.
