Not going to bait out my school but it was in a very small town.


I was pointing out the fact that in the UK, public schools are a very exclusive type of private school for the upper class :lol:

Fairs though to you too man, can't shame a solid set of qualifications.
I think whatever route your life takes you in, it's going to build your character either way. Everything you do is a double edged sword, you know? I've missed out on some things too, some chances to pursue certain top universities so on - but it's not something you should dwell on. Just gotta do what you can with what you have available to you right now.

I don't know man, I try not to think about those kind of things after sunset. Night times are pretty harsh on the mentals and all.



yeah, exactly, I agree

iq tests are generally more about logic and spatial reasoning. can be fun little puzzles if you're bored.

Yeah my college averages C's and B's (depending on the subject) too man. School boasted about their 'pass rate', which is just a grade 4 (or at the time of joining, a C). I've always been apart of schemes like AimHigher where they try to encourage you to keep going on to HE and so on....

I think it does come down to the schools, but if you use your resources right then you're more than capable of doing much better than their average. I mean, with the internet you can teach yourself anything in the world; so I'm sure utilising it correctly can help you get an A in whatever course you're doing. All about whether you're willing to put the effort in at the end of the day, some are and some aren't (me being one of them). I'm happy in the middle - good enough to have options, not overly working my youth and social life away. It's a good life man, more opportunities than we give it credit for. :yep:

Whats all of your IQ and whats your education grades; what job do u have/degrees/qualifications you doing now.

I have 107 IQ
Maths english lit/lang science 3-3, public services D*D* HSC DM

To be honest I don't think it's really accurate to compare educational background and IQ.I mean some people got a low IQ and find their school grades are very high. IQ is general knowledge and grades are surrounding specialised knowlegde. Like my IQ is approx. 126 but my grades are like BBBBA*ACCBB lol, so apart from two grades there I'm rather average, which doesn't really correspond with the IQ lol.
