I love all of you's more than you will ever know! I want to cry!
@Dejan -
I'm currently rank 1 in majority of my subjects except english, which I aim to greatly improve on next year.
Yes, alot of people at my school are doing year 12 simply for the pass but I don't know if people are actually going to pick up their game, or just continue to stuff around like this year, being surrounded by those types of people can be frustrating alot of the time.
Thankyou! This has definitely made me think of all the doubt in a different manner, I really would love to prove everyone wrong in the end.
@Kesh-
Yes, my friend who said the top 2% thing is a smart kid, this was all discussed after he finished his methods exam, which made me feel much worse about my aims as he's doing harder subjects than me.
YOU SEE IT THE SAME WAY AS ME! I agree 100%, I was lost on what path I wanted to take for next year and beyond, but all the people on AN really encouraged me because like myself, everyone here is interested in actually discussing school, VCE and university, and I was able to steer myself in the right direction, knowing that the high achievers are actually really cool people and they do exist and have the time to talk to you and help you out. I'm really glad that this website is available, it's such a big benefit to me, everyone here goes through the same thing and it's the opinions of everyone here that really matter to me.
Glad to know i'm not alone on this thought, thankyou!!!

I tried, but, they just put me down more, so I gave up and took the beating.
@VILPQ -
I'll try not to, in reality, i'd love not to surround myself by those sort of people, but I haven't got too many friends, sad life, I know.
@Will T -
Will T, you make me want to cry, you kind soul.
I really wish that's the way it is, that their intimidated, I don't wish to intimidate everyone, I just never thought that aiming high was seen to be such a crime.
There's one subject which i'm kind of equal for rank 1 with someone, does being ranked 2nd mean everyone elses marks effect me at that position?
@BoredSaint -
really? woah, why does my school suck so much!
@Kesh -
I agree with this so much, the teachers at my school even made it clear, 'your doing post compulsory learning, so you should be taking the initiative to teach yourself', I was absolutely shocked when I heard this, I think the lack of effort the teachers are willing to put in really reflects on the students in the end.
@WonderBunny -
Tafe at VCE sounds so cool! Sounds like it would also be much easier to concentrate on your studies, no high school drama to act as a distraction!
