Default Are you academically challenged?
 
Well? You go to Kingston University. Perhaps you just have no ambition or drive? Or perhaps it's because you are rude and think you're better than everyone else. No? Must have been convenience then; a handy location, right?

EDIT: That's funny. Someone negged me for this. I go to Kingston you cock.

Challenged as in political correctness for stupid? Sometimes. Challenged as in the course pushes me to my academic limits? Sometimes. I'm currently on course for a First Class Honours degree, just as long as I don't take too much overtime at work, or spend too much time down the pub.

People who are academically challenged shouldn't go to university at all, and most of the time dont.
So people at university should not be academically challenge.

It's an awful university. I know of proper gangsters who go there, it is a slum.

ahem, is it? it's pretty decent and it's a lovely town. there are **** heads everywhere, and i'm guessing you just know a handful who happen to go to kingston. the majority of people at the uni are really nice, there's just a high concentration of "rude boys" in maths which is a really small class anyway.
i'm doing maths and stats at kingston and i love it, it's a fantastic department and i like how the course is much more applied and has quite a lot of computing.

What the hell?! My boyfriend goes to Kingston, it's great, it's in a lovely town, and he loves his course (geology), He got ABB in his A-levels, and offers from Royal Holloway, Southampton and Leicester, so he's hardly academically challenged, he just wanted to go to Kingston.

Yeah, I don't know about that. Drop-outs and wasters maybe, but not gangsters. Yesterday a guy behind me in the library was asking his friend how it all worked. Middle of November and it was his first visit. What a waste of a whole load of tuition.
