Tattoo artists can do this and they have the pressure of it being on someone else's skin forever. I can't draw a stick horse with the pressure of it being better than my sisters.
Guest,
1. when directing comments at a certain comment thread click reply so that you don't start a whole new thread.
2. Either you didn't understand what was being said or you just feel like wrongfully correcting someone. Please re-read his/her comment and maybe you'll understand it.
3. If you need to provide an insult to get your point across that makes you into a dick and doesn't make you right in anyway.
I didn't express interest, sweetheart. I have a strong feeling you're one of those 'But mom thinks I'm smart!' people, so I'll spell it out for you: Get that stick out of your ass and shut up.
Hmm, well because the universities of Oxford and Yale both think I'm smart, allow me to spell it out for you, flamer - when I express an opinion and you start dry-humping me because of it, I am going to pimp slap you until my hand gets tired. Or didn't your mommy teach you to learn when to shut up? Now, go and read some fun.
I cannot speak for anyone else, but for me, it was all about being involved. Anyone can get good grades (that's just a matter of finding real-world applications for anything you learn, so you will remember it. come testing time), and anyone who gets into a good school has excellent grades.
Be involved. Rhodes Scholars are chosen from people who excel at a sport, excel in community involvement and excel at academics. This is a good rule of thumb, really, for getting into any school. You don't have to be the quarterback, or even a fullback. You can be a cheerleader, or a mascot or the team manager - so long as you do whatever that is to the very best of your ability. Same thing goes for community involvement. Do something you think helps people and give it a lot of effort. I would do school papers on my community efforts to get a kid's playground built, involving the rugby team as well (a trifecta of all three college requirements), or a local garden at one of the harsher estates.
The key is, be involved. Its alright to sit around, bs and play CoD with your mates, but if you do that to the exclusion of all else, you are only cheating yourself, and narrowing your possibilities for the future.
Apart from the tl;dr advice above, I'd suggest applying early, or seeing if there are internships at the target uni you want to attend. They are more likely to accept someone they know and already like than someone they don't. Make the campus visits and apply early.
