<p>I always feel leagues behind my peers.
I dunno. -_-||</p>
<p>Let's discuss.</p>
<p>I don’t really ever feel stupid, but I just feel… unaccomplished.</p>
<p>Same.</p>
<p>Feel as though everyone else is a genius and I’m just…here.</p>
<p>Haha, Westminster? I feel the same way sometimes, I usually get pretty good grades but there are always those kids who are just better than me at every subject.</p>
<p>Daily life</p>
<p>Yes, but not in comparison to my peers.</p>
<p>Everyone does except for the most arrogant.</p>
<p>Yes, especially yesterday when I got my SAT score…</p>
<p>Even the most arrogant feel stupid. It’s just that they’re in denial.</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s about feeling stupid. I think it’s your will. I often feel I’m at a disadvantage, and some days, I just sit there and cry. The important thing is that you realize you aren’t less smart, you’re a genius, just in a different way. Trust me, it will make all the difference.</p>
<p>About arrogance, don’t be that person. The people who are truly smart don’t think others are stupid.</p>
<p>Yea, I cry, too. This app process makes everything worse. T_T </p>
<p>I don’t think I’m a genius in any way.</p>
<p>I don’t necessarily feel stupid (although that really depends on when you ask me, occasionally I just think it would be a better use of my time to just drop out of high school, learn to play the pan flute, and become a woodland nymph). However, I agree with the previous post that I do feel unaccomplished. I mean, from what you read here, I should have cured cancer by know if I have a hope of getting into my #1 choice (Cornell). Alas, the woods seem more appealing with each passing day…</p>
<p>Coming with you to the woods.</p>
<p>I didn’t say I cry because I feel stupid. I know I’m not. I cry because I feel like the cards are stacked against me.</p>
<p>Susie, most of them are lying. Don’t beat yourself up.</p>
<p>I cry because I’m not really smart AND because I’m severely disadvantaged.
I mean, I work and work, yet I’m getting nowhere. Society and my mom have told me education is the key to success.
Not seeing it. I’m still suffering. I still have nothing.
What am I even working for?</p>
<p>It’s not education. It really isn’t. You have a natural genius built into you in something, you just have to find what it is and work hard at that.</p>
<p>Yeah, I feel stupid quite often. Or, at least not as intelligent as I could be if I were more well-rounded in my academic approach. Mathematics is the bane of my existence, like I feel like I should and could conceptually understand it but I can’t and it’s so frustrating. This year, I found myself deeply understanding/clicking with and even enjoying AP Statistics, but of course everyone on here is constantly lumping it with the other “joke/easy” AP classes and exams. Makes me feel great.</p>

<p>Well this is a depressing thread…</p>
<p>sigh the high school I go to is so depressing in that everyone laughs at the person with a 3.7 or lower unweighted GPA, and a 2000 or lower SAT score. Makes me wanna move out of my high school. Thank god for my friends, I am not entirely a zombie…</p>
