[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This poem is the mating call of the modern loser. Nothi g wrong with hard work and striving to be the best at what you do. What garbage. [/quote] I think you are missing the entire point of the poem. Truth is most humans-including the vast majority of kids who get into AAP and TJ-are not *that* extraordinary. It doesn't mean they are losers or mediocre. It's a big ass continuum people. And that is ok-there is a lot more (and I mean a lot more) to life than getting into a T10 college. BTW-My kids are in AAP, and do outside math. I expect good grades. But life is so much more than "making it" as the US defines it. [/quote]
