I guess that makes me feel a little better. Although I don't care about that as much now because I'm willing to grant you your moment of transcendent brilliance, and I have discovered that Virginia Tech is actually the better engineering program, because UVA only has higher entry requirements because they're older and more famous and have a better liberal arts program, and Tech will accept my 4 so whatever. What was the book you wrote about again? I didn't recognize it but I forgot to look into it at the time.

And I was joking. Some of our public schools are so remedial it's embarrassing.

No, it's the other way around
I bet (if I knew sh*t-all about the States) I could pull a 98% average in one of your high schools.

A bunch of kids can do that here, some get even higher. I never tried so I will never know how well I'd do.

Much. It's surprisingly high fidelity for a black metal album and much more emotionally charged, but overall I need more listens of it to see if I really enjoy it.
'Course, I'm not as hard on for Agalloch as most of the folks around here, so I wouldn't do the proper justification.

I know it's different and I guess it works, just as an American I find the percentages baffling. A 65% is an F over here! That's a very low percentage of answers right on the test!
