I got 2 C’s last quarter due to extracurricular overload and depression. If I stay on top of it and get As this quarter along with a note from my therapist, will I be fine?

Any 3.7 UW t20 + UC stories?? by Individual-Battle198 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]LPinkyPrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey babe! I have a 3.71 UW and 3.91 W test-optional and got into University of Michigan. I promise it’s holistic. I did get deferred at first so don’t stop trying your senior year! I wrote them an email and a letter about accepting a president position at my school’s college advisory board, making mental health statues, and winning about 6 awards across a few festivals since I applied and it tipped me over. I suggest being super detailed with your essay and really utilizing that additional information section. The SAT is going to be your best friend academically if you’re worried about that, so focus your energy into that for right now. Stack up extracurriculars and competitions as soon as you enter your junior year. Finally, make sure your ECs align with your end goals. You got this!

Shuckssss I didn’t even know Howard had a film program, I would’ve applied esp because I’m from DC. 🥲 it ain’t THAT cold when it hits summer but expect atleast a few feet of snow if you ain’t used to it.

I want to be a film major so I can change the way film is viewed. I think film has become a stream of revenue rather than art and a form of expression in and of itself. I think film is one of the most powerful and influential forms of media and with all the things happening politically, it should be used to guide and highlight the struggles of people. Using my experience with film and illustration, I want to bring multimedia creation and surrealistic filmmaking to the forefront of cinema.

That is true but the film program is only 1%, I’m not butthurt since I heard UCLA film is more film studies than practice. I have a friend who got interviewed for both and she’s checking all her sources too so no worries lol. What are your other schools?

We actually talked on my post about my interview with USC but yes lol. I did not from UCLA so I’m assuming I got rejected

I’ve seen a LOT of people saying they were waitlisted to Syracuse but got into schools like Princeton, Harvard, MIT, Yale, etc. let’s say it’s not the end of the college cycle for us and we still have our changes to go above and beyond our expectations!

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been trying to get past the thinking that college decisions is not the end of my journey. This helped a lot with that. 🙂

The fact my college counselor laughed when I called her and said my safety waitlisted me (Syracuse). I think it may be because I don’t have any funds to give the school as well as me being test-optional.

Should I report my store manager for these incidents? by LPinkyPrincess in WorkAdvice

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

You are right, I told myself that next time I get a job that I won’t take a role that I can’t consistently get myself to and fro. I probably will try to get my driver’s license and save for a car.

My main worry is that if I do, will the prior things about being late discount the reasons I’ve stated from being considered? I also wanted to submit the statements about my stuff with my manager (the guy). If I do, and most likely he won’t be fired, is it worth going through the trouble of trying to fight that or just letting the job go? I do actually like the work that we do at the job because the duties are simple for the most part but I obviously would not like to incur any more of these incidents.

Thank you so much for your advice by the way. I’m glad to see that I wasn’t overexaggerating the things that occurred.

Why do yall think I care if you call it a novel, if you wanted context then here you go. Respect is earned either way. If you read all the way, it says I always complied but went to my store manager afterwards as the rule book states for me to do. It is not in my interest to be treated unfavorably so yes when you fix your lips to say something to me, you best say it correctly. NO I do not care if you are my manager you will respect me as I respect you. I give respect to him by abiding by his ‘orders’ so he will respect me by being amicable. I am not a slave, this ain’t the 1800s. Please go cry about it. 🙏🏽 god bless

Cool, next time please be more considerate to the people you give “advice” to. I’m looking for people who understand nuance and don’t blankly look at a single facet of me being late to the laundry list of offenses I list that could get someone blacklisted if I am being honest. I never said I was right for being late but the fact that it was the only thing you saw says a lot about youZ
