hi Koss
according to my British friend,
"aren't I" is not a slang because nowadays everyone uses it.
it's too formal or old-fashioned to be considered as a "slang".
the correct tag would be "am I not", but no one uses that.
in my opinion, languages are living and changing, and they don't always follow the rules because people don't always follow the rules, either. :D
hope this helps. :)
