People think my 99-plus ATAR qualifies me to be a bona fide genius, but I assure them that the longer they get to know me, the more they’ll realise this: in the HSC, I just played the system. I don’t think I’m necessarily any smarter than anyone else; I just did exactly what the markers wanted. This approach works for me at university, too. I’m about to graduate with a science degree that I don’t feel I deserve, because I can recall barely any of the content I’ve studied in the past four years.
