You know you went to a Selective School in Sydney when:
1.You sat in the aisle for your 4U maths classes.
2. You felt a pang of sorrow when you received 17/20 for your English modules.
3. You knew you didn't have to study that hard, because you knew your school would scale your marks up.
4. The average UAI of the people in your school was 98.55.
5. You were constantly told that you were the "cream of the crop" in Sydney.
6. When you got to University, you were shocked to discover that 85% of the student population were NOT actually Asian Australians.
7. You did 13 units - 4U Maths, 4U English, 2U Physics and 3U History - "just in case".
8. Correct punctuation, grammar, spelling and general syntax are of paramount importance - even in electronic communication.
8(i) You recoil slightly when you receive smes/e-mails/facebook posts with an abundance of "u", "keke", "stolked", "bitch please", etc.
9. You sincerely believe that gaining a mere SINGLE degree is going to hinder your future career as a lawyer/financier.
10. You subconsciously shudder a little bit when people tell you they "study" at TAFE.
11. Even if you've been out of school for 5 years, you still know EXACTLY what rank your school got overall in the HSC.
11(i) According to the Sydney Morning Herald.
11(ii) According to the Daily Telegraph. They've got different ways of working it out, apparently.
12. All your friends study law, commerce, optometry, finance, medicine, dentistry or arts - in some double combination or another.
12(i) But not arts on its own. What's that...like...an 82 UAI requirement?
13. You're not at all surprised that approximately 85% of this group is composed of Asian Australians.
14. If you're a Caucasian male, you have yellow fever. Big time.
15. If you're an asian female, you like white boys. Big time.
