The Student Room is an online forum for teenagers, primarily, but you'll always find adults who exercise their bragging rights because their little Annabelle or Toby got 14 A*s at GCSE and 4 A*s at A Level, and is going off to Oxbridge. This bragging is omnipresent among students too.
There are many different kinds of forums, ranging from 'I got rejected from Oxford. Am I still special?' to 'My friend got into Teesside and is happy. How do I let her down?'. As demonstrated by these forum names, there is a lot of fapping to Oxbridge and its equivalents, where a common mentality is present, that being 'if you don't get in, you fail at life'.
Politically, it is leftward skewed. Surviving for a day as a righty is impossible, as you are hurled abuse from the left majority, being referred to as more -ists and -phobes than there are made up genders. Consequently, an admin or rep will fish you out of the crowd and shut you down.
Things not to criticise on the Student Room: Islam, Positive Discrimination, Wage Gap *coughs* bullshit *coughs*, Racism against white people (rEVerSEd RaCiSm), feminism, gender being a spectrum, Oxbridge (the OJW (Oxbridge Justice Warriors) will be on your back), Immigration etc.
Typical 'The Student Room' threads and responses:
OP: How do I get into Oxbridge with 7 Bs and 3 As?
Reply: Hahaha you must be joking, try somewhere of your level, maybe Leeds Beckett?
-
OP: Anyone going on the Durham open day?
Reply: I got an offer, but I don't need to go as I got an offer from Cambridge instead.
-
OP: My RE teacher told us Mohamed married an 8 year old but didn't consummate the marriage. Is she lying?
Reply: Uh no! Islam teaches love and acceptance, and will benefit the western world!
-
OP: I think immigration should be stricter as it's not economically sustainable to have open borders.
Reply: XENEPHOBE!!!! AHHHH HOW DARE YOU CRITICSE IMMIGRATION. @cakeinmyface DELETE HIS ACCOUNT NOW, GATHER ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND DESTROY HIM.

OP: How do I live after a Durham rejection?
Reply: Lol your personal statement must have been proofread by someone at Leicester.

People who refuse grow up. Often in school 20 plus years after high school. while not working, and living off a relative or family members generosity. Usually they have extremely lofty goals such as doctor, engineers, or anything very prestigious sounding. This is a result of wanting to be in a fantasy world, without dealing of the actual pressures of the real world. Often these people can be found at community colleges, but not exclusively. Really a sad thing to be honest. Often these people claim to be geniuses, who sometimes were cheated out of there opportunities along the way. When offered a chance to rectify this such as a prestigious internship, they are often met with many reasons, or personal problems, they cannot accept, but will accept next semester or next year, if possible. Also known to spend a lot of time browsing the internet in private.
Nicolas was a lifetime student. He got his BA and had an additional 120 post baccalaureate credits. His stated goal was to be a chiropractor but at 55 years old, and deep in student loan debt, this was not a true goal. Rather something of a fantasy, while also telling family members and such that he was going to be a “Doctor” while spending most of his time watching tv and fapping

Something a person has to pay after attending a vocational school or college, usually for a long period of time.
He had been paying his college debt for so long that he began to call it his student groan.

An inhabitant of the highland school, usually gay or pregnant, and more often than not high or stoned, or in the process of becoming. Too stupid to even identify themselves.
"Dude, who am i? Where am I going in life? What's all this about?"
"Well, you're a stoned pregnant gay guy, so you must a highland student. Your purpose is to reproduce, which you're doing very well."

A person who goes to college for art cuz she think its gonna be easy, then realizes its not. She will either change her major, find a way to get a lot of work done really fast and pretend its creative, or fail. They also spend all their money on art supplies and field trips to art museums, and can never pay back their loans cuz they make no money.
Art Student: Ugh! I'm broke and I have no time for a job, all because I am an art student!
Business student: Switch to be a business major.

1) A student at a boarding school who's too pussy to sleep there; one who participates in homosexual activity.
2) A student at a boarding school who has no friends; thinks they're cooler than they are. This student usually tries to hangs out with boarding students older than them (that don't like them).
Boarding Student: "Why aren't you sleeping over tonight ?"
Day Stud: "Because I'm day student-ing it up tonight with my dad. Wanna join?"
