    And I got accepted into it. ;D The results came in today. To get into Stuyvesant High School, you must take a Specialized High School Admissions Test. I got a score of 613. The lowest acceptance score (cut-off score) last year was 561. My friend told me that he knows someone who knows someone who scored 540 and made it into Stuyvesant this year. So, I'm elated that I got in. I will be able to hone my grammar skills in one of the best schools in the country. ::)

    I will be rewarded handsomely in the form of an Asus Eee PC 1000HA. ;D

    Well done you; I also got into an exclusive grammar school at your age (I botched the aptitude test, left after one page with a stress related migraine, but the principal was able to extrapolate what I had done to get my predicted grades). I'd passed the entrance exam already.

    Stuy specializes in math and science, actually.

    @Anandjones: No idea. :p

    grammar schools are just elite high schools (the 'grammar' simply means its entrance by passing an exam)

    Good for you Born2killx :D

    Finally, the image of a Grammar Nazi, complete with Hitler Mustache has started to fade from my mind with your accomplishment. And now it's being replaced by an image of a studious guy wearing a lab coat in the future :)

    Good for you, Born2killx -- next step, Harvard. I'm still shocked at your age. You're in middle school, holy shit.

    I'm also jealous of your skill with a Rubik's cube.

    Congrats man. We don't have any schools like that here in Florida so I just applied for the IB program and I got in. I did great freshman year but then we moved (for a week) then moved back but I had already been put into home school. At least I'll be able to graduate early lol. Well anyways congrats man keep up the good work in school.

    Immaculate grammar is just one of my character traits. My real interests are computers and photography. ;D

    And thanks for all your compliments!

    A trait?... Like Obcessive Compulsive Disorder :p
    But yay for computers; make sure your hacker free so all your computer are belong to you

    Honestly, maybe so. I know I have symptoms of both OCD and Tourette's, but we never bothered to get diagnosed by a doctor.
