It sound's as if it's for 'special' people, with special needs etc. And not the good way.

[Vibe]

ROFL yeah i was thinking that

Edited By Aquae - Please do not avoid the filter, it is there for a reason.

[StripedTiger]

when i first read it i thought you had mis-spelt naughty lmao xD

it sounds like its for special people as in intelligance. for people who are talented majorly at certain subjects.

[jstar953]

Pfft, thanks guys, im on the gifted and talented register! making me feel specially needy lol. all i get to do is media tho. yay. yay:neutral:

[StripedTiger]

put that on your cv for work and they'll be snatching yah up quickly :P

i think it is very important too if what you wanna do when your odler is linked with media :)

[Ostinato]

It's obviously because you've performed outstandingly in a certain subject, so first of all well done. :]

As Aquae said, it is a great opportunity and will definetley help you in the future with getting jobs etc. Think about it. If someone's there with the basic, average exam results, and someone else is there with the same results but they've been to NAGTY, who's going to get picked? It's obvious.

Good luck with it. :]

I got put in that in yuear 8, it's really good. It's something good to put on your cv + they promote trips to oxford ect. I went to oxford and it was really good a few months ago with the other ones in my school.

I was in that for year 6 and year 7.
We just had to go to like a summer school once every week on a sunday, then every day for a week, and we had a few trips and other stuff.

It was alright.

[brodeo]

Hehe i opted not for summer schools :) I just go on the trips and get out of school hehe.

[Mentor]

Lol, why in the world would anyone want to? its just extra work without any real benefit "/ meh...

on another note i was considering apply for warwick uni "/

[iluvben]

My school don't get involved with shiz like that and I would have to agree with mentor , seems pretty pointless wasting a summer for a bit of writing on your CV ;s

[Jane]

I was on that when I was like 12 or somethin lol.

[Oliver46]

I've never heard of NAGTY... In my school they have put me in a group called MAGPIE, I'm not sure what it stands for but I've been told it's for clever students.

[alexxxxx]

We don't have this...

[Adzeh]

My school does that too but I turned it down when asked :)

We Have Things Like That But You Have To Be In Advanced, Science, Math And English. I missed on on science by 9 places. So I'm not 'Gifted'
