I knew a girl like Paris in high school. She wanted to know everyone's ACT scores so she could subtle brag that she got a 31 (equivalent to a 1390-1410 on the SAT). I made a 35 which is almost a perfect score (equivalent to a 1560-1590). She got mad when I finally told her because then she didn't have the highest score anymore and spent the last year and a half of high school trying to get her score and GPA higher than mine but always fell short. I was valedictorian and she was salutatorian and she hated coming second to me. Didn't even bother to congratulate me the way I congratulated her and refused to shake my hand or take pictures with the rest of our senior class after the ceremony. I can't stand competitive people.
