[quote=Anonymous]We moved across the country (not here, overseas) when I was halfway through high school (equivalent to junior year) because my dad had a great new job opportunity he wanted to pursue. The system there is similar to the UK, with O levels and A levels. I was the only one of my friend group to leave, and I was definitely worried about trying to make new friends as I am a bit introverted and nerdy - I wasn't sporty or talented musically/ artistically, but I always had perfect grades. It ended up being a great move for me. I learned to make new friends, and how to be a good friend, at a crucial time in my life and have stayed close to them to this day. I have a great memory of being the only kid in class to ace our first, super-tough math quiz. The following week, a few kids came up to me asking if we could do homework together and I made my first friends that way. So yes, I think it can have a positive outcome for all.[/quote]
