And good luck with decorating the 7th grade hall this Saturday! I heard you got challenged by the 8th graders to a spirit competition!!

EDIT:

You are also a fucking lier. And an extremely bad one at that.

The only reason SATs are used is so that admissions assholes can sort through dozens of applications easier and get their paychecks faster. It started in 1967 when all dumbasses wanted to go to college and the admission officers did not feel like looking at all the applications. They set a minimum score and rejected all the ones below a certain number.

College Board is also a huge corporation that takes your money and makes you believe that it impacts your life so much. SAT books, tutors, flash cards, etc. It's all a dumbass business made to screw you out of your money. You can find TONS of articles that say that SATs don't matter as much.

The very fact that this insignificant garbage gets people ahead is what is wrong with America. Just look at G.W. Bush. That is the epitome of fucked up.

Also, a good percentage of the most successful people did shitty in school. Grades don't mean jack shit. You can be successful even if you drop out of high school. You just need a brain. 2 of the most successful people I know (both millionaires) don't have college degrees.

What does a college degree get you? A shitty cubicle job working at some corporation? Maybe one day you MIGHT make it big and get that corner office with the six figure income. That still pales in comparison to what you can make with your own business. You don't earn jack shit working for someone else. You make the big money when people work for YOU.


You don't have to believe me but I had 120 absences every year and a 95 overall average. This means I came only once a week on average. Sometimes I wouldn't come for 2 or 3 weeks straight. When I came to school it was an event. Teachers would make a standing ovation if I came 2 days in a row. I'm not bullshiting about this. I would show you my transcript if I didn't burn it.


HA HA. Good joke about the spirit night though. We used to light all those papers and they would burn nice. Worthless crap.
