If HSL was an actual High School...

<p>

no kidding… it’d be like a 1% chance, at best. like kids from all around the world would be begging to get in.</p>

<p>I CALL DIBS ON THE SCHOOL FIRST!!! :stuck_out_tongue: (just 'cause i probably wouldn’t be able to get in…)</p>

<p>

omg!!! because, you know, the top 100 is so bad. such a slacker. :P</p>

<p>I think the class slacker has a 3.8 Average and gets in to a top 50 university.</p>

<p>Oh how I shudder.</p>

<p>…although…on second thought you guys are much nicer and considerate than the supposedly smart and competitive people at my school. :)</p>

<p>I’ll volunteer to be said slacker, MIThopeful16…hahah.
Hm. I actually think it’d be really eclectic and enjoyable. Sure, there would be some extreme competition, but I’m laid-back and/or of a second-tier quality, academically (comparatively) so I’d just soak in the atmosphere of a group of highly-talented people.<br>
I enjoy being around those who are driven to learn and succeed. I also appreciate innate and genuine curiosity and other talent, too. I think HSLHS would have a good amt of the former and the latter.
</p>

<p>^ I agree.</p>

<p>I think it’d be awesome to be surrounded by high schoolers that love learning and are driven, like I am. Like, everyone at HSLHS would want to be there. It’d be fun.</p>

<p>This will be the most awesome school ever. Our one slacker class would be “Building Internet Communities” or something like that.</p>

<p>^ YES. The Effects of the Internet: Macro and Micro Social Psychology
A grad student did her thesis on the effect of Facebook on relationships. Totally plausible.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure I’d be the slacker kid in the corner who the overachievers in the front of the room shake their heads at - despite my being the overachieving nerd in my school.</p>

<p>HSL student: How many APs are you taking?
Me: Uh… 10?
HSL student: Sacr</p>

<p>And what about yearbook superlatives?</p>

<p>Most likely to achieve…
<em>100 names listed</em></p>

<p>lol the minimum is the max number of APs you can take. 4’s were the minimum on AP exams. A 5 is average.</p>

<p>Most likely to go to an Ivy league: <em>300 Names</em></p>

<p>Some of the common yearbook superlatives would be:
Most Likely To Win The Nobel Prize
Most Likely To Bring About World Peace
Most Likely To Become Leader Of Nation
Most Likely To Become Rhodes Scholar
Most Likely To Be Fortune 500 CEO</p>

<p>Most likely to win prize from Clay Mathematics Institute.</p>

<p>Most likely to be President
Most likely to be on Time’s 100</p>

<p>I’d DEFINITELY be ranked last in the entire class.</p>

<p>I’d also probably hate myself and feel inferior to everyone 99% of the time.</p>

<p>It’s much better to feel inferior to 99% of people all the time. That 1% you feel superior to makes it just enough to get by. Just ask the Irish.</p>

<p>^ I don’t get it.</p>

<p>See? This is why I’d be ranked in the bottom half of CC High School.</p>

<p>It would be abnormally freakish</p>

<p>We’d have pretty intense EC teams.
Imagine the number of debaters, olympiad kids, science fair kids, etc. in one school.</p>

<p>WE’D HAVE OUR OWN ARML TEAM and we’d show Thomas Jefferson what’s up.</p>

<p>I’d be at the bottom with Leila, I’m soooo lazy.</p>
