Among the worst websites on the
internet. A place to go where you can
read about snotty geniuses who feel the need to brag in the ultimate attempt to make the "average high
school student" feel pity on the themselves. An absolutely awful website that privileges and celebrates the Ivy League-Potential student, while completely forgetting about everyone else.
