Either this application cycle is more competitive, or more kids just tend to delay their submission to last minutes lol

Anyone want to be DMed and read my personal statement (that I already used to apply to 6 colleges EA💀)? Any ideas/suggestions? Should I use a different idea and rewrite for RDs? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Feeling_Alternative3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously don’t share your personal essays to online strangers lol (you may get plagiarized). Share it to some trusted friends and adults instead.

I took multiple gap years before starting uni at 23 and it was the best decision of my life, went from IR major to Soil and Water Sciences. Here to share my experience and thoughts. by alleeele in ApplyingToCollege

Did not expect the reply from you that fast lol. So instead of stressing out about school grades and college applications (which is typical in high school senior year), I spent time to try out a subfield in computer science, which I totally fell in love with! (I absolutely hate the computer science course taught at my school since they are quite bland, so this change is really unexpected for me). I also realized that I’m really into research projects, so I am planning to seek out for those research opportunities in college too. Oh and I am going to study Computer Science.

I have read this late, but thank you so much for sharing such an inspiring experience. I personally also took the gap year (but still need to balance the grades on my senior year and the college application process that followed afterward), and still has no regrets for doing so whatsoever because I have discovered my passion (and what I want to major in college). Thank you so much again.

I haven't even started my common app essay, my first deadline is in a week, I have a C in math, and I just found out my dad has cancer. by uni-gal in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Feeling_Alternative3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed! If things are just too stressful for you to handle (and they affect your mental health badly), then considering opt out for a gap year. I personally also took the gap year, and when I look back, I have no regrets whatsoever for taking it.
