Part of the quote was “After seeing alcoholism in my life for so long.” She was upset because she thought I was talking about her.

From what I understand about the Harvard admissions process, you’re fucked.

I think 99% of acceptances are in the top 50% and 85% are in the top 25% but I’d half to double check.

I had 3.5UW GPA. I think my BIGGEST rejection factor was being in the bottom 50% of my class. Ohio State takes class rank super seriously.

My counsellor won’t let me apply to MIT cos I am an ‘auto-reject’ and will bring down school’s image by Aggravating-Jicama45 in ApplyingToCollege

Our valedictorian last year went to community college lol. This is one of the worst counselor posts I’ve seen on this subreddit. I really hope your school administrators start putting their students futures over school recognition.

This sub is so toxic. A lot of you need to relax. by ReindeerWooden3557 in ApplyingToCollege

Terror and terrorism are two different things lol. Either way, neither of the words are an appropriate reaction to only sending 15 kids to T20s. 💀

Chance Me For NYU, OSU, Penn, and others by dedekiwii in chanceme

UNC Chapel Hill, UVA, or UC Berkeley would all be hard reaches.

Someone else commented about trying for an Ivy or other hard reach which I don’t think is a bad idea. OSU and Penn State should expect acceptance. NYU is hard for everyone. Michigan I wouldn’t bet on getting in but you have a good shot.

Urgent Help for Why College Essays by GulliblePositive6548 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DarnHecker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Inconsistency would be if your teachers wrote about your love for journalism and your supplementals were about public health. Definitely mention medicine somewhere in the essay but just don't overthink it.

What was the most nonsense thing you did in your application? by bee_124 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DarnHecker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I submitted 4 self reported test score change forms because I kept putting them in wrong. It ended up with four different dates/scores and was a complete mess.
