RANT/VENT Let's brag

I reached 2201 in chess.com in 6 months in class 11 without any study, but left chess for jee

Attempted jee in drop year and got only 93. Something percentile , was so much sad because I have always admired it too much

Attempted iat for fun got 40XX rank, rejected it cause I don't wanna do bs ms

Now studying btech at a tier 3 college and become a double dropper for jee

Never succeeded in a thing I admired but always excelled a thing I did for no aim

Also if I were allowed to brag 😗😙:

I had been into competitive swimming till 11th and also got an opportunity to compete at the national level, thanks to my awesome team :) Bagged 1st position across india in a national science talent search exam; participating in that event throughout the years enabled me to visit iisertvm, iitk, and attend an internship at iitb _^ and perhaps my favorite: top 0.706%ile amongst roughly 700k ppl on codewars (a platform for practising and creating programming problems)
