In Spain, the term 'empollón' is the common informal alternative. While 'aplicado' is what a teacher says, 'empollón' is what classmates say. In Mexico, being 'aplicado' is often associated with 'echarle ganas' (putting in desire/effort), a core cultural value of hard work. Argentines might use 'traga' (from 'tragarse los libros' - to swallow books) as a slang equivalent for a very diligent student. In Colombia, 'juicioso' is a very common synonym for 'aplicado', used for both children and adults who are responsible and diligent.
