It's so annoying, I can't help it if I'd rather do the homework than have a breaktime detention. It's not my fault I can draw very good or can remember dates in history. Arg.

calm down hun, okay listen.
I get called it because my friends i hang round with are in lower band or are just thick.
And you know what i just think to myself?
Atleast i take my education seriously, atleast i wont be relying on someone else to pay the bills, atleast i wont be pregnant by the time i leave school, atleast i will have enough money to support me and keep me out of debt, etc.
I know at the end of the day, im better then them. People may call you a swot because they are either jelous of you.
At the end of the day, its people who work hard in school and do their homework etc that will have the jobs and the money when they are older.
whats a swot
like a boffin etc.Quote:

I'd take it as a compliment personally
Ignore 'em.
You'll be the one laughing when they're living in a skip and you're earning tens of thousands a year.
I agree, it means your actually getting on with education.Quote:

My friends don't mind either because i got rid of my "friends" who didn't like people who did well in school and realized who my real mates were.
The people who matter don't mind and the people who mind don't matter.
Just tell them to eff off.
You can laugh at them when they are working in morrisons.
Just carry on as it is, Make sure that your not rubbing it in peoples faces though (Not saying that you do, just several people do it in my class)
And you can just imagine how the people who are calling you a swot will wind up when they're older ^_^
What I think is, if someone calls you a swot, stew etc. they are just jealous!
It's better to be smart than to be a total idiot!
Just ignore them, their just pathetic and even maybe jealous.
You can just laugh at them when their off to some job they really don't want to do, with very little pay. Whilst your have a job which hopefully you will enjoy, with good pay!
i got called a swot because im good at science and other things
if i know quite alot its good because theres these people who always get exited and rubbish ect
and like someone said - they probably wont get a job that maybe they wanted or not get a job at all
tbh I'd rather be clever than thick like them :} yeah, compliment too
just say
"thanks, it's nice you admit that i'm smarter than you" :)
i agree with most previous posts, you're the one who will get the good job - so carry on being yourself. :]
same here they probably don't even know what swot means ;]
Thanks everyone ^^ I mean, schools there for a reason?
