Dik Mar Van Nostrilboy Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Not enough UCAS points to get into some pretend course at Stevenson College type post, IMO. The only people who think most/all students are 'bell-ends' are the people who were too thick to get into decent (or any) institutions in the first place and are ignorant of the lifestyle. The bitterness is palpable. Got enough qualifications to get into any university in scotland so classic bateman spouting pish as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The things in my classes I've heard people complain about are just "Oh my god, my dad won't buy me a new macbook even though mine is so old" "I had to get up at 9 this morning!!!" < from a girl living in halls. Her class was at 10 for which I had to get up at half 6. I am just completely bitter though cause I work 35 hours a week because I don't get SAAS money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that you lack basic grammar and common sense in equal measure, that's evidently a total lie. No doubt, you'll now fabricate some excuse as to why you clearing the trollies at some Tesco car park, rather than studying at one of Scotland's proper Universities like Edinburgh, Glasgow, or, where the top brass go, St Andrews.

Alan_R Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 It does seem that you want to direct your ire more towards those from a wealthier background than yourself than towards students as such. The thing is that for every one person claiming that the "school of life and the university of hard knocks" makes a difference, there's another who's taken advantage of the situation and comes out better-connected and with better career prospects. Then there are those, like your ex-flatmate, for whom the 'real world' is being in the George St brigade. Sure, they'd be different sorts of people if they'd had to work their way through uni but you can't say that they aren't made or broken by their different experiences as they'll more than likely walk through life with just the same chances of happiness & fulfilment as you or me (albeit on a sightly different financial scale). Takes all sorts and I'm sure that we could come up with a number of illustrations of folk from the other end of the social spectrum who do nothing to improve the image of students. Nah, I'm friends with folks who are from a wealthy backgrounds as well but you can still be down to earth and willing to stand on your own two feet. Doesn't mean you have to be a complete ****. (the fact this 'type' of person is charicatured in the likes of Fresh Meat by Jake whitehall and chums means its not exactally a rare case) Having been to uni and obviously have lots of friends that have been/are students it would be daft to tarnish them all with the same brush. What I've basically been saying is I can understand completely how students get a bad name. There is quite a large minority that I've just got no time for, generally speaking.

Gembon Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Minimum entry requirements for St. Andrews are AABB although most are AAAAB. Let's be honest though, unless you play sport at national level or are ridiculously good at music or something as well as having the grades you won't get in with AABB. Even with the outside stuff you'll struggle to get in. I applied with AAABC and got swiftly told to **** off Only people I know who got in had 5 A's.

I actually have a good job They even trust me with the paper towels when it rains, thank you very much. It's fair to say that your abhorrent ignorance of grammar would suggest that chose to ignore, or were incapable of processing, the 'good education' that you claim to have received. The fact you aren't intellectually capable of going to University, let alone a decent one with a wide range of people, totally undermines your claim that 'all students are dicks'. You simply don't know because it's a 4 year party which people like you aren't invited to, and all the CDT and PE Highers you got won't change that. Despite your limitations, even you know that, deep down. That's why you regard students so lowly; they're everything you dream to be, but can't. Don't let the seething jealousy and bitterness cloud what little judgement you have. It's embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The early 80's were simpler times Francis. There was less clamour to attend Uni and a degree back then was considerably more than the current passport to a lifetime of student debt and unfulfilled expectation. Of course a man of means such as I am I had the necessary qualifications to attend Edinburgh (there were none of the polytechnic Uni's back then)and went part of the way through the entry process before opting for a 'career' as a purveyour of the finest grub.

Patrick Bateman Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Are you lot still doing this yeah? Tragic. No. When a young man is left on the footballing scrapheap because he is too short shit to make it, before rejecting Scotland's top Universities because he can can't get in and is left to meander through the rest of his meaningless existence. His days spent jealously sifting through the possessions of his intellectual superiors whilst fitting fire alarms, his dreams of nights out in Aberdeen being the only escape from the impotent wasteland that his life has become. That's what's really tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
