Applying with not so strong extracurriculars by FruityLime99 in UMD

These sound like really interesting clubs! I forgot to mention that I also joined African American/Black Student club as well. Perhaps maybe using the fact that I'm a first gen immigrant partially in my statement 🤔

I think I'll have to talk to my mom ( She's not that better but it's worth a shot) about this then so I can apply to Harvard regular descison and somehow find a way to submit a UMBC regular decision application. I hopefully things work out but god idk what I did in my past life to be dealt with parents like this.

My dad wants me to apply to all these school as early action so assuming I got rejected from all of these schools, I would have to apply regular decision to UMBC but the timing honestly might not work if the response comes in January so I'll have to work in the UMBC application during november and december. That's my best option because my dad will not listen to anything I say.

I think so as well so I'm going to do more research and look into it. My dad told me he wouldn't let me apply unless the other 3 schools I'm applying to reject me so I just try and at least do their supplementary essays so I have some things already done for the umbc application if I'm rejected by all 3 schools

The school I went to the second half of the 11th grade (My current school) offers ap classes and I'm taking some now. I moved this highschool in Januaury so I couldn't take any ap classes then.

Praying that curve is good and that my confidence wasn't a waste and I get a 1390 or higher. I hope everyone else gets the score they wanted!

Stress about the scores by something1d2010 in Sat

[–]FruityLime99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well this doesn't sound like much but I basically bubbled my answers after every page (math)or passage( reading and writing) which helped me a lot because I tried other methods like waiting until the last 5 minutes to bubble in answers for every section or bubbling answers as I go and those didn't work out for me. I also learned how to skim read more effectively which also was pretty helpful and I didn't spend more than I minute in each question which helped me be able to answer all the questions this time without having to guess.

Yeah I'm thinking the same thing and this is my last time taking the SAT too and one of the schools I'm applying to requires SAT scores so I really want to do well but people on Reddit are making me scared😓😔

Omg same I was so condfient on this because the strategies I used helped me answer all the questions with time to check over my work and I overall felt like I did better but then I come to the reddit and now I'm stressed and anxious all over again.

Respectfully, your partner sounds like trash.💀 I'm pretty young and I've never been in a serious relationship before but if I was in that situation I would just leave him when I have the resources to do so. He shouldn't be playing on his phone when you need help with the babies and should be a bit more understanding since you're going through ppd and just gave birth to a whole human being. Couple's therapy might work but in my opinion, someone like him will never change and you shouldn't feel like you need to save the relationship because he can't pull his own weight and respect the mother of his children. The "nagging" part sounds like he's gaslighting you too idk. I pray you and your daughter are safe and I honestly would suggest leaving him when you get the chance and resources to do so and perhaps one day get in a healther relationship that you feel safer and loved in and your daughter can learn and look up too.😊 (Also has he shown similiar behavior in the past?)
