    Umat day!!!!

    LOL ;) But yeah, the fact that kids from high-ranking selective schools are pretty tough competition goes with saying, generally. Not that kids from other schools aren't just as fierce!! (if not more in some cases) :)

    Umat day!!!!

    So many ppl turned around CONSTANTLY to check out competition. Made eye contact with ppl like 20 times for no apparent reason other than they couldn't help the urge to turn around a billion times and attempt to scrutinize and intimidate lol

    Its interesting to see different ppl's strengths, personally i thought section 1 was pretty hard and S3 was okay. But some ppl find S1 easy, and/or S3 hard. Go figure lol What I find comforting, tho, is that pretty much everyone thinks S2 is BS (Y) :D
