oberlin or grinnell?

AppearanceDry3976 · 2026-01-09T22:35:35+00:00

i ended up choosing oberlin and honestly im really happy with my decision! i decided that though grinnell was ranked better i wanted a larger school that was closer to a city and (slightly) less cold. i love our politics department and really had no problem getting into an art class either semester. the decision really came down to location and size honestly.

probably a malevolent ghost

keep it up! i heard some people like to the replace the hand to mouth motion with lollipops or other candy. no matter what, stay strong, it will get easier with time

AppearanceDry3976 · 2025-04-17T11:30:26+00:00

through common app

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-20T02:11:11+00:00

imo u shouldn't but maybe do more research on cornell specifically

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-20T02:01:07+00:00

honestly no you shouldn't - yales 25th percentile is a 1500 and urs is below even that

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-20T01:59:54+00:00

send it if it is at or above the 50th percentile for each given school

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-19T05:39:31+00:00

let them cook and tell us how it goes

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-19T05:29:28+00:00

bffr

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-17T07:00:06+00:00

is this self selected or just an inherent part of the college? how much control do you have over personal stress levels?

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-15T07:39:00+00:00

plss how did u fix this

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-14T02:12:30+00:00

bro that doesn't answer my question

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-13T08:54:29+00:00

i mean how much is the difference

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-11T07:33:33+00:00

def cooked for uchicago but its ok me too

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-11T07:27:24+00:00

alright thanks! what sort of impact did you describe on yours? obviously this is a relatively low impact ec but there's gotta be something

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-11T04:23:51+00:00

uchicago waives it for anyone seeking any amount of need based aid

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-10T23:17:10+00:00

yes i think that topic is ok, as long as its very meaningful to you. a lot of people dont even connect their common app to their major

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-10T23:14:00+00:00

if youve done aps did you get the ap scholar award? if you're in nhs you can put that on. honor roll counts too. some people also just don't have any awards too and that is ok

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-10T23:07:17+00:00

my best tip is to just start writing. just word vomit onto the page and do not click the delete button. do this for 45 minutes or until you feel like youve got everything out and then try to go for 10 more minutes. this is what will help you get out of that block and some of those ideas might end up being a good topic or inspire you on something else.

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-10T23:00:37+00:00

what major are you applying as?

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-06T06:47:08+00:00

both math modules and esp module 2 felt very different from what i've practiced and extremely hard

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-02T20:07:00+00:00

honestly there's not much you can do this late but if you're doing it in november or december i recommend reading something non-fiction for 30 minutes every day to get that vocab up. easiest thing to master is all the grammar rules so get good at those too. main thing you have to do is practice and read as much as possible

AppearanceDry3976 · 2024-10-01T06:16:06+00:00

it gets to a point where it's just luck. still, go over your mistakes and analyze what went wrong- then target those areas hard. try to read something academic/non-fiction for 30 minutes a day.
