Explaining to my mother that I will be tutoring English, Business Management, Legal and Accounting next year... the first thing she says is

"didnt you fail accounting though?"

*akward pause*

... um mum, I got I got in the top 9% in the state...

mum: "ohh...."

I think she thought I failed because I did shit on exam 2

My parents thought my ENTER score was 82.75% (they rounded it off to 83%). They thought it meant I got 83% across all of my subjects (even maths :P). They were like 'can you get into law at Monash with your excellent average?'. If only parents had a clue how the system worked. :P

Hehe, remember those books 'XXX for Dummies'? They should have 'The VCE System for Dummies'. Then our parents can understand everything there is to know on the face of the planet about VCE. :D

My father thinks that 98.4 is 'really close' to 99.95. I choose not to correct him.

Ah my parents still don't understand what an ENTER score is, so I don't bother... they still think I got below 70 lol ... so anyone who asks they say "Oh she did alright, she got into accounting" then they glare at me >_>.
