    Affect of a large cohort on exam marks and atar

    I think/hope, that it is going to have a positive effect, because as someone mentioned hopefully the extra students are the dumb lot lolol. I doubt it's going to make too much of a difference though. By the way, you have your "effect" and "affect" mixed up! :p

    hardworking Vs. intelligence

    Personally I think that is really unfair. =[ How can one's effort be fairly and accurately measured? For example, someone can claim that s/he studies 24/7, yet fail all the exams, and still get dux? lol!

    hardworking Vs. intelligence

    You know what, I think you are a stuck up idiot. Truly intelligent people don't go and tell everyone "oh gee look I'm so smart". Even if what you are saying is true, it just shows how low your EQ is, let alone your IQ. lol, but would you say she's "doing well" in life? Personally for me...

    hardworking Vs. intelligence

    I cant agree more:) Especially the satisfaction part. That would be hilarious. The actual dux is like the "you are better than everyone else award", and the applied one would just be like a "you are a tryhard"award. hahahahah. :rofl: I wish I was naturally intelligent at maths...and...
