    Scored something like 1260 1998 SAT (old SAT). On HS equiv test I scored 90% Science, 93% Social Studies, 94% language and only something like 48% in math. I was terrible at math and it always held me back but these days I seem to be able to do it quicker in my head than my friends.

    Was unable to afford full college, parents wouldn't help any, and didn't need it after a while as the jobs I was getting age 23-28 were better paying than what most graduates made anyways, but now that I am in debt and unable to find decent work now I don't know if it would have really helped me or not. Sucks to be fairly smart but held back by things like that.

    I've always easily excelled in Languages and Social Studies and epicly failed in Maths and much of Science. (I only grew some interest for Science after high school, mainly in a self-taught way, but I still prefer Languages, Philophy, History, Arts or Anthropology in general. I find exact sciences enticing in some aspects, but boring as hell.)

    I've always excelled in Sports too, if it matters at all.

    As for myself, I am quite good at all subjects, but I have been lazy up until this last year. Luckily, I had an easy school. It wasn't until my Junior and Senior years that I was pushed hard. I got a few 88s here and there, per quarter, but my final averages for the year were always in the 90s.

    My best subjects were Language, Science, and History ones. Ironically, my worst subject was Mathematics. This was mostly because the way Mathematics was taught in my school was boring and non-fluid. I still got As, but just barely. Particularly, I hated Trigonometry and its rote-ness. Calculus was fantastic though, and I ended up with a 96% for the year, which compared with my 92s in Algebra II, and Trigonometry, is quite fantastic. That was when I truly started to enjoy Mathematics. I was good at Prob & Stat as well. I finished that class with a 98%, but the teacher had to curve it ridiculously because half the class would fail for some reason. Physics was a bit tough, based on pacing, but I still pulled off a 97% for the year. AP Biology was a lot of work and studying. I finished with a 95%. AP English I had a 98%, but the class was interrupted because my teacher had to take leave for a few months after her grandmother died to take care of her grandfather. Otherwise, it would have been a lot more work.

    If I were to choose my best subject out of all of them, I'd say Biology. I got a 760 on my Bio subject test, which is the 90th percentile. I was quite surprised about that. For some reason I have a natural aptitude for Biology which I can't emulate very well in other subjects. Although I love Physics and Mathematics more because there is far less rote-ness and memorization.

    My average for all four years of high school was a 96.2%.

    We have 100 point system in college thanks to Bolonja, though the grades in index are still marked with 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

    Bolonja in Bosnia is a joke
