Ya because getting a reading age of 16 in 2nd class and then getting in the top 1% of the 6th class sigma and Micra ts in second class doesn't either. I also got in the top 1% in the Drumcondras as well.

No one likes a show off

I didn't come on here to boast I came on here to discuss the JC this is the JC forum like. But then it turns out when I contributed to the discissions on what how much study I do and asking about what exactly is good in the JC I get told I'm trolling and that I'm the reason as to why people doing ordinary and foundation don't post in the forum. I was then told I'm not intelligent and I wouldn't pass a test on emotions.

Look, i don't want an argument, but i've never heard anyone refer to a class as being 'slow.' It just seems quite disrespectful to me, and i wouldn't judge someone's ability just because they're in a class that isn't up to your apparent high standards.

They chose to come to a school where classes are streamed based on ability they knew this before coming to the school. The world slow is used by staff and students as well as people in the classes I don't know why everyone has such a huge problem with this.

Maybe thats why not all schools use the streaming system, cuz then people like you think their superior to others

No they don't use them because they are scared to tell people there son isn't smart and they want to be politically correct. However this is complete bs and is leading to our education system being dumbed down.

What exactly is wrong with having classes of mixed abilities?

I'm so sorry that not everyone can live up to your highly superior intellect. There is a reason classes aren't streamlined, its so people like you don't gain an air of superiority. I'll take a guess and say you don't like mixing with the 'slow people?'

Yeah , I guess :P it's not too hard, so long as you're familiar with different types of irish dances, instruments and know your set works and songs and general study, it's an easy subject to get a good mark in!

I don't believe classes in schools should be decided based on ability..
Anyhow; referring to CompKing - just because people aren't academically achieving doesn't mean they are "slow" or "unintelligent" getting top 1% in a Zigma-T doesn't make you intelligent.
If you were intelligent you'd have known when to shut up.
I noticed you yesterday saying in the Geog thread "ha ye all think ye're smart" and ended up posting something incorrect following that statement.
Unlike you; people don't thrive off competing with their friends in exams.
If person x got 90% and you got 91%, you shouldn't be happy because you did better than them.
If you were pleased with 91%, then it shouldn't matter if other people get 100%..
