I graduated about a week ago, but I’m in Australia, so I’m going to sneak in here anyway.
I’m 17. I graduated year 12 last week.
To enrich myself, I chose to do the International Baccalaureate (IB), which is an international curriculum far more rigorous than the Queensland one. That was a great decision. I also attended the National Youth Science Forum, an event for Australian high school students. This was the most amazing fortnight of my life: the ridiculous level of intelligence of the participants made it incredibly entertaining.
My dad’s fairly rationalist, thanks to his business education. The kids who did the IB with me were far more philosophical than average, and I got to discuss all kinds of rationality stuff with them.
I’m applying to Stanford in California, and to a Science course at ANU (the Australian national university).
Holy crap, that is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. I am totally applying to that.

No, I didn’t.
