<p>perhaps they don’t want the student leaders of the school openly talking to other students about the preposterous-ness of a teacher’s decision.</p>
<p>forget the world ‘honour’ in national honour society?</p>
<p>But blackroses, the thing is I never refused it. Should I still drop it then?</p>
<p>ok, so I made one mistake, does that mean that I cannot be accepted? I do A LOT of community service and helping ppl.</p>
<p>Does the NHS only look at the bad things? I have a clean discipline record for 11 years.</p>
<p>^
Uhg, he was making fun of your confusion between the words “principal” and “principle”.</p>
<p>It’s honestly not that hard to understand.</p>
<p>you can have a clean record, but if you start acting in a way which your teachers consider unbecoming of an exemplar student, they are by all means entitled to deny you admission to NHS.<br>
Being offered admittance to the NHS is supposed to be an honour, not a right. You obviously are not meriting of the privilege in your teachers’ eyes, and based upon your sense of entitlement and arrogance, I can hardly blame them. You’d best drop it before you get the reputation of being more of a pain, and having it even harder to find a teacher willing to write a favourable rec.</p>
<p>“Perhaps you shouldn’t have broken the universal principle of respecting authority; then maybe you wouldn’t have to talk to the principal.”</p>
<p>lol, what? fyi, you’re allowed to disrespect people who are accusing u of bs.</p>
<p>fight the system.</p>
<p>Over your head…</p>
<p>^ lol…</p>
<p>yeah, some say to fight the system, some say to drop it. What should I do?</p>
<p>I do so much more than some of the people in the NHS. But I guess blackroses might be right and that I should just not create too much trouble. I just hate the idea that the teachers are lying. Btw it is not all teachers only a select few. And they are not my teachers. ALL OF MY TEACHERS like me. But the NHS fails to ask what good I do. Only what bad I do. IS THAT RIGHT?</p>
<p>No, it’s not right. But making a bigger deal out of this is just going to cause more trouble for you. Colleges aren’t going to not accept you because you aren’t in NHS. It’s just another club.</p>
<p>I’d forget about it and move on with my life.</p>
<p>I guess Blackroses is right. Besides, you said you have a lot of community service hours, and colleges will notice that, whether you’re in NHS or not.</p>
<p>“yeah, some say to fight the system, some say to drop it. What should I do?”
um, u came here looking for advice. u got some. now, draw your own conclusions.</p>
<p>fighting the system doesn’t get you into NHS</p>
<p>Yeah, people are saying to just drop it. But I really feel that the teachers are wrong on this one. Yeah I wrote the e-mail but some teachers are lying about the other things. </p>
<p>I think that I probably have a chance of winning this case. But I dont know. </p>
<p>Because it will be my word against the teachers’ word. What should I do?</p>
<p>Any more help?</p>
<p>go with your gut, I don’t think you should drop it. I wouldn’t. They are obviously wrong, even if it is the teachers against you</p>
<p>you sound like a toolbox</p>
<p>hint: there is a reason people don’t like you, especially adults</p>
<p>also, post the email please</p>
<p>^
Actually, you sound like a tool.</p>
<p>“hint: there is a reason people don’t like you, especially adults”</p>
<p>Funny, you talk like you know him enough to make such a judgement.</p>
