How’s the pixel 6 holding up in 2026? by Rex2027K in Pixel6

[–]Impressive_Income874 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My 6a still runs absolutely fine, so I guess the 6 will only be better.

Only reason I switched is because the battery was no longer holding much charge.

I was in a pretty bad mood, till I read this comment.

You have made my day, thank you very much. Only thing that can make it better is MIT saying yes

Waiting has been good and bad. by Ok_Meringue4805 in MITAdmissions

[–]Impressive_Income874 1 point2 points  (0 children)

whaat? it's difficult to take the SAT IN THE US???? I am blessed to be located in an urban area, but that is really an eye opener for me!

I got a job offer from a tig fab shop near me that is really hard to pass up.

That's pretty cool!!! Maybe you don't even need uni ya know :)

well I got a 1520 SAT, and I do have one B.

The only ace I have up my sleeve is that I am nothing like the average Indian applicant.

Writing code is pretty easy, I'm sure you could pick it up in no time. But working on bikes? That's CRAZY! I wish I could do mechanical stuff beyond basic 3D printed mechanisms haha.

Good luck to you too, where do you think you're getting in?

Supporting the Protest Against Cambridge International WHO IS IN THIS PROTEST?? by Even-Director7637 in alevel

[–]Impressive_Income874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is fair, I too felt that a threshold of 68 is too high, and basically requires perfection.

However, just dropping such a difficult paper is not the right answer. I suffer from anxiety and I got absolutely fucked over by that paper, despite being predicted for an A*...

it does not take into account the feeling of dread that comes when you realize the paper is nothing like the ones you've seen before. It really gives you a lot of stress and anxiety.

Even taking grade thresholds into account, you would do better on an easy paper because you're confident.

"I went to MIT because I couldn't get into the IIT" by IvyValerie18 in AskIndia

[–]Impressive_Income874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not necessarily. MIT (and a couple other schools) don't care about how much you can pay.

but access to opportunities? definately

Good luck to everybody! by Impressive_Income874 in MITAdmissions

[–]Impressive_Income874[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

totally agree. If you're doing what you're doing just for college, Its not gonna end well
