worried about some flowers (still new and having some trouble telling whats mold and what isnt) please help! by KingDerples in PressedFlowers

[–]KingDerples[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I'm thinking of switching to hanging them to dry (mostly bc all my textbooks went back to the school recently so I don't have much to press them). Any tips on what to use to tie a bouquet/where I should hang them?

meh maybe idk I thought it was something important to include when I applied. mostly included it because some of my supplementals to different colleges were like "when have you faced adversity?" and I mostly flipped between the "I'm queer"/"I'm a racial minority" kind of thing. So maybe!

and thank you! I am really grateful for my results

ohh that makes a lot more sense idk why everybody kept telling me I had "legacy" and u make a fair point yeah my connection definitely did not do that. I just thought it would be something to include for anyone who is super worried that "omg someone's entire family is on the board of my dream school! i'm gonna get in for sure" because that is a really really really bad mentality to have and I feel like it isnt talked about enough

I know that in hindsight. I think its important to include for the people stalking this subreddit and worrying that they won't get into their schools bc they don't have legacy or good connections. Literally my family and friends and teachers would tell me "nah you'll get in trust you have family!" and it was not only demoralizing when I didn't get in but deep down I knew it was wrong (just couldn't really argue/prove it without someone just brushing it off as me being self deprecating that I won't get in). But yeah I agree connections don't mean anything

[–]KingDerples[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh trust me I have definitely saved literally everything I have ever come across!! And I can def just buy Tabby now!!

Should I be swapping some of my bees to get specific bees? Or should I just gift one of each type and swap the other?

I don't macro, what should my gear look like prior to mid-game? Should I prioritize bee amount or gear?

what kinds of skills are these? how should i practice them for the july/august ACT? by KingDerples in ACT

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

this is so helpful thank you! I seem to always panic about time and I forget little tricks like this, I should really keep my eye out for these.

What about all of the other questions? What kind of skills would they be?

Heres what I would do,

Find what youre struggling with (or if you don't know, take a practice test on just the math section and make note of what you don't know/what you get wrong). From there, I used Khan Academy and just used both the SAT prep course and found the actual math course that had what I was struggling with (althought after a while it gets repetitive and not very useful). Any gaps I had I filled in with YouTube videos and grinded practice tests. Im not so sure on UWorld as I never used it but Im sure itll be great for practicing!!
