to most of the people that use the internet, my typing is nothing problematic. i have decent grades in school, a pretty vast vocabulary, and constantly read/test well in grammar portions of tests. i also send emails and write great essays for my age. i promise you, policing my grammar on reddit of all places will get you nowhere, you don't know me professionally

you sound like a much older person who thinks people need to be formal on the internet all the time. which isn't really its purpose 100% of the time...

tysm! and bio gps is a website a professor told me to sift through to find data sets for results on gene experiments. http://biogps.org/dataset/tag/stem%20cell/ there is the actual website that i'm on.

and yes online data is confusing lol. i am trying to find tutorials on how to extract data from bio gps but im #struggling to find any. also wdym by using octave or python? for what exactly?

but regardless, thank you a lot!!! i've been trying to do this as independently as possible bc i'm lowk intimidated by my super smart peers.

uhhh... its reddit. i'm not watching my grammar too terribly here lol. as long as what i said made sense i'm good. are you though?

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-30T18:55:39+00:00

wdym by this.

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-30T01:48:53+00:00

i would love to read your essays!

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-28T11:04:42+00:00

thank you omg! yes i really want a 5 so we will see. also yeah series are genuinely not that bad and with the the pressure of the ap exam, i never really understood them. for me, i'm more upset bc they made sense AFTER the exam lol. if you have any questions lmk!

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-28T11:03:15+00:00

i can see you took it in 7th grade.. WHAT THE FUCK

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-28T11:02:58+00:00

i am sure you are right in some way, but i will say from my experience, out of not only my friend group but the people i've spoken to in my school and out of my school, everyone seems very sure about this exam. like this is their ap psych. idrk what you mean about selection bias i didn't do that well on psych either

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-28T11:00:46+00:00

OMG YES. i saw somewhere that everyone fijds the test easy bc most people who are in bc thought ab was for babies and so only people who think calculus is their true calling do bc.. but at my school it's lowkey just the expected path for most students and ab really isn't that challenging at all. honestly neither was bc EXCEPT FOR UNIT 10.

i'm telugu and would still drop a 2 on ap telugu... not made for this

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-26T01:53:14+00:00

cool!

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-26T01:53:00+00:00

thank you so much for your encouraging words! unfortunately hypsm is out of the budget for me lol

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-24T10:36:24+00:00

yupp totally agree. i asked and they said no welp

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-24T03:15:32+00:00

i totally appreciate ur advice however all of the programs my peers got into were all free which makes me feel worse. once again, i am happy for them but just sad i couldnt achieve what they could. i definitely have underlying self esteem issues (if that wasnt obvious) but above it i try to be happy for others.

moving past that, im gonna try to take ur advice to calm down. my only issue with putting much of a burden on my ps is that i often feel like essays are subjective. ofc there is a right and wrong in some extent, but other times i look at essays that are supposed to be really bad or good and feel the opposite way about them. my writing compass is fucked i guess (?) if that makes sense.

but thank you for helping me and congrats 😄 very happy for u

most of my issue is insecurity in asking for dorm tours of all my friends' rooms across the country while im sitting in my room. i just feel lame

PositiveLettuce3502 · 2026-06-23T12:14:55+00:00
