A better way to say “enrolled in a program” to signify the difficulty of attaining admission in the face of stiff competition? Thats kind of a passive word - you hardly mean to flatter when you say something is "Acceptable" :) |

Is there a single word for “one who speaks/boasts a lot about everything”? Reason why I wasn't too keen on braggart - While it implies a boastful/talkative person, it says nothing about lack of abilities to follow it up. A very gifted/intelligent person could be a braggart if he chose to shout about all his abilities... |

Is there a single word for “one who speaks/boasts a lot about everything”? All very good answers, but I was looking for something, I don't know, elegant and less colloquial - for instead, "charlatan" instead of "trickster" :) Anyway, I'll accept this as answer in a day if no other answers come in !! |
