heys guys, sorry for being absent for a while, YET AGAIN, but real-life seems to be dishing out one thing after the other at the moment. i think i got it under control though (famous last words  ) Anyways, back on topic; yesterday i found out, as many people taking A-levels in Britain will have, my exam results. To my good happiness, i found that i have been accepted into a university; the University of Central England in Birmingham. Who else from Britain, or anywhere else, got their results recently? if you dont want to say then its perfectly understandable. |

My happiness has been wiped clean from my face.
A rival school notorious for thugs, Ninestiles, have tampered with the results to make it seem like one of their students has 7 A*'s, and no-one will belive me that they've cheated, and now I feel like I'm just mediocre.
Before I sink into a state of depression, I leave behind this sonnet, likening myself to a steam locomotive that has been made redundant.
Travelling on lifes' mainline was such a thrill,
Speeding through the moors like lightening,
So great was the past but still,
What happens to me now is frightening.
No water does my boiler fill,
With my flanges all open wide,
My pistons they now lie still,
And my wheels all refuse to glide.
My life is useless, each station past,
I am usurped by the diesel king,
At Deaths' Halt I am stopped at last,
The railway can be such a cruel thing.

Speaking as someone who has had to be insanely competitive all throughout school ... don't compare yourself to others. Do the best you can, and be proud with what you accomplish. Sounds corny, but it'll save you a lot of frustration in the long run. -Rygar |

I know it sounds corny, but I am speaking pure fact.
Nobody could get 7 A*s unless they had outside help or were far greater in intelligence than NASA's top scientists.
I'm getting over the depression, but it seems unfair that I works my intestines out and recieve one A, yet someone else does nothing but break my Aunts' windows (She lives close to the school) and recieves the highest result in the country.

Why be depressed dude? I mean they had to cheat to get that score, while you got your grades by yourself. Isn't that what matters? Those dudes at the rival school will end up cheating all their lives including work.
BTW Do you have any proof that they cheated?

Plenty
1) When the IQ tests were given out, this particular girl was classed as average, and unable to recieve such a high score.
2) Ninestiles has almost 100% of students that have criminal records. I have not seen a single one so far take an interest in any of the subjects.
3) These accusations have sprung up before from other people in the past, whom have suffered from attacks by drug addicts from Ninestiles (These attacks happened AFTER the accusations)

Uhm, Norris I'm not putting you down or anything, I'm just gonna make a point, from your evidence, in my opinion they're not good enough. You need cold hard evidence. Who knows maybe one dude there decided it was enough and studied real hard or something. No matter how low the chances of a student there to get a grade like that there is always hope you know. Or maybe he knew the answers because he had to learn them to know how to do crime properly (eg: those robbers with the cool gadgets). But I'm not saying that your thoughts are false. Maybe the DID rig the scores. What I'm trying to say is possibilities are limitless that it is impossible to have only one possible reason. I hope your not mad Norris

I get the impression, this ould be a sore subject. My opinion is this. Norris, you got an A right and you busted your butt to get it? **** good job! IF there are others out there of questionable baking who pull of an outrageous grade somehow, don't worry about them. You earned your A and you know that for sure. Be glad you got it and you know you earned it. THat is what matters. Can we go onto a different topic, before this one puts people in a boad mood? COllege is hard enough without bad moods.  |
