its probably cuz you spell realization with an "s" instead of a "z"
it is still recognized as the same word, but much less so. Akin to the grey/gray debate.

There's a real possibility of getting a few fails this semester I'm afraid.
True - about your "smartness" at school having nothing to do with how well you do in exams at uni. In Australia, your uni fees are subsidised by the government, and you only have to pay part of them back when you finish uni and get a job (your liability is deducted from your salary). So here Uni course entrance is based purely on academic merit, and the more popular the course/university you want to get into the higher your marks have to be to get in. Unfortunately I decided I wanted to do one of the most sought after degrees in the most prestigious uni in my state. I got in, because I always found school fairly easy and somehow managed to get reasonable marks with minimal effort. However now that i am in my course I am surrounded by people who are at least as smart as me (mostly smarter) or just work damn hard... so now I am stuck at the bottom of the cohort, unless I change my work ethic dramatically
I don't think what whiskers said about exams is true... at least not in my faculty. If you've gone to lectures, done your tutes and generally know your shit then you're sweet when exam time comes around. Unfortunately for me that feeling of knowing all I need to know has become very unfamiliar since I finished school.

That is so brutally true that I am laughing histarically. Mainly because I did not show that I was "smart" in high school (motivation) and that I can fail an exam yet know the material better than the professor.
I am reminded of a certain stats test I took last week. When I ace all of the application parts yet struggled through the definitions, and get marked low, something wrong there. Yeah the other students are good at rote memorization, I would rather know how to do a technique. Of course my course grade will never reflect my knowledge, then again, course grades don't account for after test learning either which is one major downfall.
