I don't know what uni is like, but yes we have curfew, 10pm for senior girls. I'm not sure about middle/lower school girls, or the boys :smile:

Interesting. But I guess you're allowed to leave and go wherever until 10 pm? Do you have scheduled stuff to do throughout the day? Or is it just normal classes then independent study like high school?

Nope, it must be on school grounds :smile:

I have classes and free periods like most schools, as well as enrichment!

Intetesting.... would you describe yoyourself as introverted It's just I would describe myself that way and I'm concerned about having a room mate.

Seperate question: what are the facilities like? Is there a TV?

No, quite the opposite actually! To be honest, it's really not that bad, as we actually hated one another and when we found out we'd be rooming together, we kicked off! Now we get on like a house on fire, it's so nice to have somone to watch films with and bitch with or ask advice from :smile:

Not in our room no, but there is in common rooms etc, and I like the facillities :smile:

Wow, that sounds like it sucks. But at least you enjoy it!

What're you planning on studying when you graduate? And I guess you're leaving this year?

Really?

I guess it is unrealistic, isn't it.

Are you looking forward to meeting a greater diversity of people at uni? :biggrin:

Grow up, that attitude will not get you anywhere in a professional career.

On a more serious note, do you find people irl to be as judgmental about private schoolers as online? I find irl people are a lot nicer and are less "Oh you go to a private school therefore you're loaded af therefore you're a spoilt sh**"

I find that in real life, older people are much more friendly to me. However anyone my age is extremly rude, and a neighbouring state school has a very big reputation of violence, they've broken into the school, stolen veichles etc. They are not exactly friendly to us at all, which is a shame really.
(I go to private school which has a 'posh' reputation)
