That horse is WAY too high for you...

Geez.

People are extraordinarily arrogant today. So I went to a review session for some stupid ib test a little earlier. Somehow, my teacher and I got started talking about college and other people joined in. One of my friends (I'll call her sarah, though that's not her real name) was talking about how she got into a 7 year med program at two

Wow, that argument sounds like it got out of control very quickly. I think a lot of people make the mistake of believing that because they did get in they've worked oh-so-much harder than other people. It's not the case... there might have been something she did that made her stand out, but it seems... kind of doubtful. At least, considering the kind of program you're talking about. At least part of it had to do with luck. If she believes that she's the only person, out of 20,000 applicants, to work that hard, I'm certain she's dead wrong.

Yeah, well, I was interviewed by the college for the same program since they were trying to recruit me, but I ended up not applying. They only had 1500 applicants. -_-;; Figures.
