I tend to think that people think all we do is study all day and do like 50 million extracuriculars. We're also supposed to be super smart and know everything and solve every problem in the world. Nerds are probably pretty ugly and so people think a lot of people are unattractive. The Harvard students also never parties and is very rich and full of themselves.
