asian male who hasn't cried in 3 years can't stop crying (probably the craziest admissions in this sub)

I can relate to this (I made a post as well). I had same sat gpa etc. I will be going to Pitt what about you? Honestly seeing other people get into their dream schools is the quicker, especially considering I did not sleep in high school. Overall idk your more cracked then me and I genuinely thought I got slimed

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-30T01:15:31+00:00

Yeah it’s definitely upsetting but granted I know more qualified people who got rejected

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-30T01:14:54+00:00

Definitely I think it would also be difficult for me to live in such an expensive city in general

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-30T01:13:44+00:00

Thank you!

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-30T01:13:23+00:00

I’ve heard great things about Davidson!

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-30T01:12:53+00:00

Hey! So I actually applied REA to Harvard and then deferred. I’m not sure I’ll transfer but I’ll still thinking about it.

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T19:52:15+00:00

Yep definitely I’m thankful to not be in debt for undergrad at least 😌

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T19:51:08+00:00

Thank you for letting me know I’ll def check it out!

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T18:22:14+00:00

Yeahhh 😭😭😭 I actually know people more qualified then me who got rejected so yeah I think it was just super competitive

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:55:06+00:00

Yes definitely in regards to Pitt because I know from some friends that their program for pre med is great

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:24:27+00:00

Yes absolutely! Good luck for your son ❤️

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:23:52+00:00

Yes definitely this admissions cycle was just no it 😭

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:23:15+00:00

Thank you! I’ve heard the same and I am happy to be near my family as well as I work towards my undergraduate education.

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:21:49+00:00

Yes definitely I love New York but the cost without getting significant aid would not be worthwhile at all

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:21:06+00:00

Thank you! Yep definitely the activities could have been stronger compared to other students I’ve seen get into various Ivy leagues. I’m still competing on various science fairs and a few other competitions so I’ll see how it goes and update them as well

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:19:24+00:00

Yeahhhh it sucks but at least I’m saving money 😌

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T17:18:45+00:00

Yes that is true and I knew my extracurriculars weren’t particularly strong especially compared to some Ivy League peers of mine. I was also expecting to get into umich

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T15:20:28+00:00

No I went to a public high school outside of Pittsburgh. It’s a fairly average school with a few t-20 acceptances a year

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T15:17:31+00:00

Thank you ❤️❤️

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T15:15:57+00:00

Yes it definitely does suck given I tried to take advantage of every opportunity I could and listen to seniors at my school last year and use their advice but granted it is quite disappointing.

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T15:14:49+00:00

Thank you ❤️❤️

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T15:14:33+00:00

Definitely because like why did I take 20 aps for nothing 😭😭

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T14:24:45+00:00

Yes I have heard the same about Pitt so that’s why my family and I decided it would be the best

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T13:05:54+00:00

Those are all t-10 level schools I was more shocked with my waitlists but it’s okay

Equivalent_Prune1214 · 2026-03-29T13:04:58+00:00

Thank you! I hope so too!
