One of four selective-entry high schools located in suburb of South Yarra, Melbourne, Australia. Caters to boys from Year 9 to 12. Known for having a rigorous selection exam, hundreds of students miss out on the opportunity to go to the school each year, thus creating a negative stigma and envy towards the students who do pass. The school is known for its academic excellence, being the top ranking school for Victorian Certificate of Education (High school diploma equivalent) results, and constantly outranking other schools in the state.

2: You go to Melbourne High School? That's gay dude.
(person 2 is being salty because he failed the entrance exam)

Get the Wagner high schoolmug. Shanghai High School International Division=SHSID=Study Here, Sleep Is Deprived
One of the most prestigious schools in Shanghai.
Positives: The school is ginormous, the facilities are top-notch (ice rink, anyone?), and you can choose from up to 20 sports for PE. The IB program is one of the best in China, with 10% of students getting a full score of 45. Similarly, the school pumps out Ivy League acceptances. The fact that it is more Chinese than other international schools means there's not a lot of problems with bullying and underage drinking/smoking/vaping compared to other schools.
Negatives: The school is extremely Chinese for an international school, with 90% of the population being Asian. They are also very conservative, and prefer downplaying scandals before actually addressing the problem at the roots. The students here are very stressed bc teachers don't understand that students cannot do 3 hours of math homework every night. And it's funny how little the school teaches vs how hard the tests are. Without a tutor, you're screwed.
Oh yeah, forgot the GPA deflation. And how all the previously mentioned Ivy Acceptances are often hoarded by 1 person, though the school wouldn't tell you that.
But despite all these downsides, the students have an odd pride of being there. All in all, despite all the complaining the students does about their own school (and all the fantasizing they do about SAS), they ARE proud to be there.

Get the Timberland High Schoolmug. Olds high school is best place to get addicted to nicotine. Located on the campus is the "blue shed". You can find all sorts of stoners and nicotine addicts there. The principle occasionally dresses as a teen to catch the said stoners and nicotine addicts. This doesn't stop them though.
