Anyone else thought uni would be more different

That was my point: a 2 year old can't function in society. They have no social skills, life experience, rationality, common sense, humour, imagination, reflexivity. Just a high logic skill. Hence why bragging about your mensa membership is a bit pointless.

Yep, makes perfect sense to me. The day that you have to drink to make friends is the day I think I will do myself in.

You're confusing EQ with IQ; emotional intelligence with cognitive intelligence.

But, you have touched on something that has been disputed among psychologists for years. Howard Gardner's theory of mulitple intelligences offers a persuasive alternative to the all-encompasing IQ test.

Evidently your Mensa exam didn't test for coherence or relevance either. Thank you for repeating my Psychology AS Level back at me though.

lol.... psychology A-level?

Everyone knows that only the profoundly mentally retarded take psychology A-level.

The only thing i'm slightly cautious about is "oh he doesnt drink so he's not fun!!111", I dont want people to make that assumption about me ..i've always found it easy to make friends though - but I hope uni isnt some massive alcohol fest where being social = drinking!
