<p>^ it's a myth that emma watson isn't intelligent. she got straight As for her O levels and A levels (the REAL-LIFE OWLs and NEWTs for you potter fans), and that's on top of having an extremely time consuming EC</p>
<p>lol @ listing "leading actress in the Harry Potter films, one of the highest grossing film series of all time" as an extracurricular :D</p>
<p>^ HAHA, I can see her posting a chance thread on here and someone responding:</p>
<p>"Hmm.. A-Level scores good, but weak ECs. Low chances. Apply, but don't expect anything."</p>
<p>^ LOL!</p>
<p>I can definitely see that.</p>
<p>She is smart. It's like Natalie Portman- gorgeous yet strikingly intelligent. Maintaining good grades while shooting a film is no easy task.</p>
<p>Yeah i dont think she'd get in. i dont think hogwarts offers any AP classes lol.</p>
<p>hahahaha that's such an awesome thought.
That's pretty much one of the most focused ECs you can have.....I wonder how she described it on her CommonApp....</p>
<p>But if she posted a chances thread (truly CC-style), she'd need to display that horrible false humility we all do:</p>
<p>"Oh, and I had a leading role in a few British films. I hear they've made it over to the US decently well, but I'm not sure. Do you guys think this is worth noting? I mean, I never won an Oscar or anything....."</p>
<p>lmao :)</p>
<p>Not having an Oscar might do her in...</p>
<p>She would have gone to any school. That is true.
Shifting to the American education system could be difficult.
America is more applied while the British system (and in Commonwealth countries) the system is memorization AND not forgetting. It gets hard when the professor in America asks you a question, "so what does that mean?" and you rattle out all that you have memorized. The question has not been answered and you look like a fool.
Two different systems. They work there they are used.</p>
<p>Looks like she chose to stay in England (Trinity at Cambridge):</p>
<p>Emma</a> Watson chooses Cambridge rather than America - Telegraph</p>
<p>Wow, I'm sure wherever Emma Watson goes she doesn't want to be stalked. Remember y'all, she's not Hermione Granger, she's Emma Watson. Chill the jets.</p>
<p>I'm surprised there weren't protests at Harvard/Yale to get the school to offer her the most attractive enrollment packages. idk what that would be, but i'm sure they can be persuasive.</p>
<p>Too much focus on this. That said, I googled it and I don't think it is quite over yet; she may have enrolled but she also said on January 19th that "she was taking the SATs to apply to some American universities."</p>
<p>See Pandora:</a> Who ate all the pies? Not Eamonn... - Pandora, People - The Independent .</p>
<p>Good pick up, booyaksha.</p>

Emma at a loose end</p>
<p>Emma Watson's plans for higher education appear to be up in the air.</p>
<p>The dainty Harry Potter star was recently rumoured to have accepted an offer to read English at Cambridge. But, as noted in this column last summer, she had been thinking of studying in the States.</p>
<p>"I am sitting my SATS so that I can apply to some American universities, which is a little bit nerve racking," she writes on her blog. "My maths is VERY dodgy."</p>
<p>Says a spokesman: "Emma is keeping her options open. It could yet be that she ends up going to America."

<p>More here apparently:</p>
<p>The</a> official website of British actress Emma Watson</p>
<p>^ lolz. Her British dialect makes me giggle.
"My math*s* is very dodgy."
hehe.</p>
<p>and, icfireball, I'm so not a stalker! And it's not because I have some weird thing for "Hermione," either. If it was any other number of gorgeous actresses, I would say the same stuff. For instance, if I was applying to Harvard a few years ago and heard that the stunning Natalie Portman was going to attend, I would've been ecstatic! Cool people with cool talent are always fun to be around :)</p>
<p>Heh. Funny this thread came back to life! I think she's completely void of charm. But maybe that's because I have a British accent myself. Oh the mirth.</p>
<p>Actually, IndiaRubber, if your English accent is one you acquired in the UK, (and not one from India.....THAT accent always sounds like an English accent from 200 years ago), could you answer this?</p>
<p>Do girls in the UK react in the same way to an American accent as girls in America react to an English one?</p>
<p>On a side note. Emma Watson....I can only imagine helping her with her 'maths'.</p>
<p>"Ugh, I feel like I've been doing this same problem for ages, can you help me?"
"Oh, I see what you did....Well, You can't really integrate with respect to that, it's not your du...see?"
"Thank you so much!"
"Are you doing anything tonight?"
"..."
"Too fast?"
"Yes"</p>
<p><em>walks away</em></p>
<p>^Hahaha. Creeper!
I did not acquire mine in the UK. I developed it in Indonesia/Italy, changed to an American one briefly in Pakistan/Egypt but got back into my original accent in the last two years of high-school. My boyfriend is British/American, however, and I asked him the question, and he, in turn, asked his sister and to give you the short answer: No. </p>
<p>But of course, it depends on the girl.</p>
<p>(On that note- stop your crying! Luckily for you, I can offer you private online classes to help you master the Italian accent. That's killer. And I only take a couple of euros an hour.)</p>
<p>What say you?</p>
<p>^Lol. I'm actually incredibly charming and witty in real life.</p>
<p>'Incredibly' shouldn't be in that sentence.</p>
<p>Also, way to be incredibly well traveled (assuming it took some time in each location for your accent to morph)</p>
<p>(Pfffff, I rarely cry. Not out of any emotional shallowness, out of damaged lacrimal ducts! Couple of euros an hour, eh? Hmm..well.... I see the pound maybe hitting parity with the Euro...and I see both currencies dropping over a long term.</p>
<p>Only because all England has is London...and all the Eurozone has is people not wanting to use the dollar...</p>
<p>I don't think I can afford your lessons right now, but maybe later!)</p>
<p>(On a side note, I don't think many people would be convinced by my new Italian accent - I hear there aren't many South Asians in Italy. I might as well go with the English one)</p>
<p>Heh heh heh. Well then! I'll be around if you change your mind.</p>
<p>Also - where in South Asia are you from?</p>
