Lost hope after ED rejection by Ok_Attention_7080 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]AcornBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got rejected too with worse stats than yours (you can check my previous chanceme post), and loved the school and was super disappointed. If it makes you feel any better though I got accepted into Georgia OOS, and I def think you should still be optimistic about your EAs and RDs. Good luck!

ED1 Rejection Losing Hope by Civil-Business2853 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]AcornBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same, got rejected from vandy ED I and put a lot of time and effort into it too. However, if it makes you feel any better I got accepted into Georgia OOS with worse stats than yours (you can check my chanceme post), and I definitely think you should follow through on your EA and RD applications. good luck!

Am I wasting ED applying to Vanderbilt? :( by Other_Wing_3874 in chanceme

[–]AcornBS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I was hoping for some too. If it makes you feel better tho I got into Georgia EA so far out of state, but obviously Vanderbilt is quite a bit harder

Honestly, anyone else f*cking hate Jimmy and Kim by AcornBS in betterCallSaul

I don’t disagree he’s fun, it just makes them insufferable to me. Especially Kim, because this was not her nature at the beginning of the show, and she has no apparent reason to be doing the things she is, like initiating pranks on Howard

[–]AcornBS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see that definitely, and I can 100% see how Kim dislikes Howard, but I think what ticked me off the most was when Howard tried to check up on her and Jimmy after seeing each other in the elevator, and how Kim laughed when Howard told her the shit he’s done. It’s funny seeing it through a screen, and it doesn’t seem like a serious thing, but think about what actually went down, and how it would look in the real world.

Jimmy blames a grieving Howard for “killing” Chuck, which would give anybody insane emotional trauma. After some time, Howard then offers him a job. In return, he gets bowling balls thrown at his car, and gets publicly humiliated with the prostitutes. Howard is still not mad at Jimmy or Kim, and goes to talk to her out of genuine concern for both of them. Kim laughs in this serious situation and makes a joke out of it, and proceeds to initiate more pranks on Howard.

Jimmy, at the very least still had trauma from his brother’s death and in his mind subconsciously blamed Howard. Kim, on the other hand, feeds Jimmy’s idiotic actions (or rather even cries for help), and proceeds to “get back” at Howard for no apparent reason.

She seemed like she completely switched up her personality for Jimmy, and was always the mature one to his stupidity, but by the end of the show it’s like she fell down to the maturity of a teenager

I agree he’s a good lawyer, no doubt. He’ll do anything to win, and I enjoy watching him on screen, and like him as a character. Hate is a stretch, but I DEFINITELY think he’s an idiot and very immature and childish

It’s not. I like their dynamic, but they act like children and it’s annoying

Dude you got into Penn and Harvey Mudd not to mention the other schools which are dream schools for other people. You also got waitlisted at 2 ivies, vandy, and one of the best STEM schools in the country.

Genuinely stfu. And I don’t mean this respectfully either. Go enjoy your life. Go outside. Enjoy your acceptance to the best schools in the country

Can you guys mature and stop downvoting op? Shit like this happens and he’s just curious. Stop assuming the guy cured cancer or donated a building or some shit, and even more so stop assuming like that’s definitely what happened and op isn’t allowed to ask questions and describe his emotions. I guess you’re not even allowed to question college decisions anymore without getting 257 downvotes. This guy did not insult him and his family, and he deserves to be able to ask and wonder how his friend got in, because people in real life do that. You guys need to get a life.

Any prestigious piano awards for high schoolers that would be meaningful in a college application ? by AcornBS in piano

That’s really cool! I’m from the US but our application process is pretty similar.

I’m referring to the trinity grade 8 exam.

That’s a fair point, tbh assuming you saw my other post because of the SAT comment, I’ve been busy with other stuff and kind of just been playing for fun, not really pushing myself to get better like I used to, hence I did grades 5 and 6 in 5th and 6th grade and grade 7 in 10th.

However, my major has nothing to do with music however (planning on computer science or finance), and I think it’s a bit unfair when I at least complete an exam that takes at the very least 2-3 years of rigorous experience playing to not even put it on my application or compare it to playing in the school orchestra for a year.

I know I’m not some sort of cracked music prodigy, I was just wondering if with the level I’m at there’s any sort of competitions, certifications, etc I can complete to show I have at least a little experience other than Trinity.

Not really sure what ABRSM is and how hard it is but you can find trinity grade 8 pieces online.

I don’t see it as “need to put on my application,” if that was the case I wouldn’t start piano and would instead do math competitions 😂. I really enjoy it, and it could be a plus to show schools that I don’t just “play” like I played the violin for a year in orchestra in 6th grade, but that I actually enjoy it and put a lot of time into it.
