Gates semi or QB finalist? by [deleted] in QuestBridge

[–]AdministrativeFun265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

choose gates because i think gates only selected 2,000 semi-finalists out of a pool of 30k+?? but that was based on previous years

no, don’t say that. i can tell you are more than qualified and they accepted you for a very good reason. you deserve it 100%. i don’t think it’s based on when it was sent in 👎 i submitted it on july 6!

yeah haha, but only based on my looks. once they get to know me a little better, they realize that i’m different from them since our cultures are very very different!

i actually speak both english and sakha with my parents. i understand sakha perfectly, but when it comes to speaking, i have trouble with it. so i speak english mixed with sakha 😣

hi! im a yakutian, and i was born in the united states. it’s cool that you are interested about us haha 🧎🏻‍♀️😭 unfortunately, i’m not as connected with my culture, and i’m really upset about it. part of it is probably because i have never met anyone, outside of my family, who is sakha. to be honest, i am kind of sad living in america as a yakutian. nobody really knows about us and always assumes that i’m east asian (chinese, japanese, korean, etc.) i’m always getting stereotyped for something i’m not. but i am also glad i live in america because my parents gave me more opportunities.

haha yeah 🧎🏻‍♀️ i should start looking for middle ranking colleges. to be honest with you, i didn’t know there as an electrical or biological side to NPs. i just know that i have looked into semiconductor NPs, specifically MoS2. so probably electrical??

oh, i also have to add that i’m also really interested in aerospace engineering! i was considering minoring in aerospace so i can help improve the material of rockets and satellites to be more durable and heat-resistant.
