[Smiley73]

Come to America--race isn't supposed to matter here

 

I wish I could because:

I can only imagine American uni's are better stocked and respected

Even though Apartheid ended about 18 year's ago and before my very birth I must pay for my parentage, something I had no control over.

 

Unfortunately barring a miracle/scholarship or bursary I don't have enough money to study abroad

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

thats a lot of "m"s

 

 

it's about all i can say when she's doing it.

 

and now i can more easily lie to my psychiatrist.

 

it is a fine day.

[Smiley73]

I also cannot drop more than 100 percentage points in my 6 subjects of Maths, English, Afrikaans, Science, Biology, and IT and must score more than 200 out of 300 in something called the national Benchmark Test

I either have lost the ability to use a mouse or this mouse is very very strange

sad, yes, causing me immense stress, yes, could possibly lead to a complete emotional breakdown if I don't get accepted anywhere, almost certainly.

 

The reasoning is something like "evening out the odds of Apartheid" or "White doctors will just leave the country", the second one is BS. The first one many people say is just counter-racism. Unfortunately that's the system

[Smiley73]

okay 200 at first choice uni

220 at second choice

 

thats 420 spaces in two universities

The best should get into schools. Race shouldn't be a factor. It doesn't for most schools here--and when it becomes a factor people get in trouble. People who work harder and deserve it more should get into the better schools. That's how it works

 

This is making me upset now :P suppose that's because I'm going to be a part of the education system

[Smiley73]

the next uni I checked doesn't even offer the degree which now means I must look further away from where I live

[Aiel Heart]

I'm spinning up plans on how to get you into the U.S. now..... :P

Ok, listen to me and listen closely.

 

If you're thinking of all of the ways you aren't going to get in this early on, you're going to freak yourself out so much that you're not going to get in. Take a few deep breaths, release the tension from your shoulders, and focus on how you're going to get in.
