The Student Room Group

Why is TSR so judgmental?

Why are TSR so academically competitive and judgmental? The slander about which type of Uni you go to, the A-Levels you do, whether you do BTEC or not. Why are the members on this forum so narrow minded?

What I hate the most, when I see members here that post up their full academic details of all the grades they get on their profile. Especially all the A*s and As like people are supposed to adore them and regard them highly. Everyone is equal here.

Your thoughts?

No - I have faith that the majority of these people aren't lying as that would be so futile.

A student forum like this just particularly attracts high achievers, and it helps us improve further as we can share our advice and learn from others.

But I appreciate OP's concern that there are some members that are disrespectful when they take part in debates and they just ruin it for everybody.

They'll grow out of it. As for the uni and what course you do, it'll always prevail.
Because it's a forum with students on, we're pretty stupid y'all
This forum has always been like that and always will academics are what most strive for on here.
Because it's fun and we live sad, pathetic lives.
I must say I agree.:smile:

These people have no where else to boast so, they do it on here to make others feel bad.
