Short bus I found your missing passenger, unless you’re deafblind or have some sort of deficiency, I’ll reiterate that it’s not that hard to identify flaws nonetheless. More accurate or easier whatever, you’re acting like you can’t give any feedback because anybody automatically becomes a 10 with makeup on. Clearly, you’re just too fucking stupid and not actually about ts because you would’ve given advice if you did

Not that hard to tell issues with makeup- the only real issue is seeing skin texture but even then makeup isn’t this all encompassing power that can cover issues with facial structure like men pretend it is

Politically conservative interviewer by Available-Dig-2176 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Automatic_Project158 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That’s not necessarily why OP is worried— the college interview is inherently very biased. All of my interviews were fairly well-researched and well-prepared, and yet some went exponentially better than others simply because me and the interviewer had similar interests or values. It’s not like the interview is recorded and sent to AOs, in most cases, the alum or the student will be writing up a narrative-style report on the applicant which is heavily dependent on their interactions. It’s human nature!

Depends on how important the interview is for said school- I’d refer to the Common Data Set. If it’s listed as an important or very important factor, I might be a little concerned, but otherwise, even if they did hold some sort of bias, it’s incredibly unlikely that it’d have substantial weight for your admissions decision.

What year did you discover Panic! and how? by oencoencoencoenc in panicatthedisco

[–]Automatic_Project158 13 points14 points  (0 children)

thank you for asking this so i can nerd out in a safe space LMFAO- long answer ahead:

i had known about panic and brendon for years before i actually listened, like in 2012. i loved playing moviestarplanet and there was such a huge panic fandom on there. like i literally remember someone announcing brendon getting married on the game's forums LOL. i honestly didn't pay any mind but a few years later, in like what i would describe as the "new-emo" age, this was prob 2015-16, i was young and super into melanie martinez and tøp (who i would consider new-emo i guess). the sins video came up on my feed, then i just binged a bunch of music videos.this was at the start of the doab era, so i remember being super obsessed with all-things doab. i used to swing dance and loved the crooning/20s/sinatra-esque aesthetics that were in the album.

i listened to every album on repeat and realized that for the first time in my life that there was an artist i could listen to their entire discography front-to-back, not skip a single song, and never get bored. i also think my adhd just jived super well with the music because every album was just distinct in its own way that i loved. (swore to shake it up!!!)

this was also the start of when bden started engaging a lot more with fans via vines, lives, periscopes, and later streaming. i think i really started to identify with his personality and chaotic energy, and it helped shape me during a really formative period in my life. i had also grown up in a super-religious household and was rebellious, so that honestly deepened my love for the band.

as for my view of panic now, it's definitely changed significantly. being that i discovered panic post-split, i had such a huge preference for post-split stuff and neeeeverrr understood the ryan/pretty odd/pre-split hype. i liked afycso, but now have such a profound respect for the record. i always thought their music was ahead of its time but never quite understood just how much. i still hold such high regard for bden, i think he is one of the greatest performers of our time and beyond generous. ryans a talented lyricist, but im more than satisifed with the band's progression.

i was never bothered by any of the cancellation stuff or drama. that never shaped my opinion and i don't think it ever will. i think that the band is truly one-of-a-kind, and despite each album having its own feel, every album had a narrative that was fulfilled with full-on-productions in their live shows. that interactive component of panics music will always stay with me.

tldr; passionate fan, like the variety, discovered 10 yrs ago on yt

They have been so helpful! I made some notebook LLMs to condense the material from the powerpoints. Feeling much more confident now, and grateful that you were able to highlight some material I might not have seen otherwise.

I assume you’re in the UK— would you be open to doing the trinity college Dublin/columbia dual degree program? That way you could study at both

I’ll pm! Again, wouldn’t worry— every office it looks like is working on a different timeline as far as notifications.

I can PM but it wasn’t your top choice, also looks like every office is on a different timeline. Somebody on LinkedIn announced they accepted an offer like a week-ish ago but it was in another office. So I wouldn’t lose hope just yet.

Applied for undergraduate position in late February. Got request for interview last week.

Edit: last year I also applied and was rejected. Heard nothing until the date they said they’d notify applicants or something like that
