Basically means picking the 5 hardest subjects in Yr 13 (last year before uni) in NCEA standard. These are-

- Maths with Calculus

Some might also include English LvL 3(plz notice it's very hard for science-heads, i've experienced) as 6th subject.

Asian 5

The 5 top scaling subjects taken in your HSC years in New South Wales - English Advanced, Mathematics Advanced, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Often, Biology and Economics are used interchangeably or used to refer to the 6th subject required in year 11, but often, people just have Maths Extension 1 and English Extension 1 to make up the 12 units.

It sometimes also refers to just the top ten scoring units that is stereotypically picked by Asians, or just people seeking for a high ATAR: Mathematics Extension 2, Mathematics Extension 1, Mathematics Advanced, English Advanced, Chemistry and Physics.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
