Raffles Institution is a premier school in its country. Everyone in the school is thought of as nerds, but in actually fact half of the school doesn't hand in their work on time, and the other half is too busy acting cool.
However, miraculously, the school excels in almost all fields and competitions it takes part in.

Admins/Mods on STRAB get called this regularly. Used to describe those who sit on facebook all day doing nothing but outing raffle scammers. These people have a large fan-base of 50,000 followers (almost), all of which are single muvvas on bennyfits.
What are you, the raffle police?

Raffles Institution is supposedly the best school in Singapore, but the truth is that it is just like any other school, if not worse in terms of behaviour. All the Raffles Institution students seem to enjoy causing intense pain to their teachers and disobeying them on purpose. In fact, I don't understand how they are still able to excel.
Ethan: Hey, I heard you are from Raffles Institution, how smart of you!
John : You better thank god that you are not there....

Raffles Institution (RI), founded in 1823, is the oldest and most prestigious school in Singapore for pre-tertiary education. It is an independent school, providing secondary education through a boys-only Year 1-4 section and pre-university education through a co-educational Year 5-6 section. Its current campus is in Bishan. It's Sister School is Raffles Girls' School (RGS). There is a stereotype that every Rafflesian is a nerd and geek, but they are mostly all-round individuals.
Tim: Which secondary school do you want to go to?
Tom: Oh I wish to go to Raffles Institution, my PSLE score is sufficient, since their COP is only 216.
Tim: I'm afraid, my friend, that instead of 216, it is 261.
Tim: Oh no screw you :(

Also know as waffles institution, an L school, thinking that it is compatible with Hwa Chong Institution and Nanyang Girl's High School, but they think too much. Full of nerds who only knows how to study unlike the other two which is genius in everything. Good in making waffles though, since it is not know as waffles institution for no reason.
