“I only went to school in early January, and I went to high school. I was first placed in a lower class and then in the last, that is, the one in which you did the [Signematric? Spoken incomprehensibly!], which is something like the graduation from high school.
People were curious and asked questions. We were also dressed a little differently from the others. Questions were whether we also have radio and so on and I think people were all very surprised that - although we couldn’t practically speak English, that - I’m talking about myself now - that everything went pretty easily. And in the spring I already got a letter from McMaster University that - regardless of whether I can take the exams at the end of the year - I would be admitted to the university with a scholarship.
It was later discovered that others had also made it and that I wasn’t such a genius.”
