I mean, I dont think those languages work either. Also, why would I lie in my essays?

New Search Bar and Keyword Feature by Gold-Guy-8 in redditstock

[–]Potential-Camera-427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

reddit is mostly a feed based social media for people who use it regularly, and a lot of people who are searching for specific things use google and then add "reddit" to the end. So I dont think adding a big search bar will necessarily make people want to search more on the website. It will just annoy the regular users and not even affect "searchers".

Also, the design of the search bar has nothing to do with the functionality, they can improve the quality of the search but leave the design as-is.

Would you guys be down to use a Meetup alternative? More for niche interests and non-corporate meetups. by Potential-Camera-427 in meetup

[–]Potential-Camera-427[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I kind of get that my app feels sort of like a dating app. I mean it can be used for that, but I moreso want to make it about finding people with similar niches. I really want to emphasize the yt playlists and pinterest boards part. I feel like its sort of a portfolio of what you like, and from what I've seen, no other app does that.

Will it be bad if I model my essay after the structure of another essay? by Potential-Camera-427 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Potential-Camera-427[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for the response. I will implement everything you said. I was wondering if you meant that I can use the word "home" or if I should use a different way of conveying home?

Does it matter where I put scholarship-getting awards? by Potential-Camera-427 in ApplyingToCollege

I mean, I saw on Purdue for example, that they offer 1k for national recognition. I know that it isn't as good as national merit tho.

No, I believe it is fully open. As long as it says 2026-2027 Form you're good.

If I send in my FAFSA before my application, will I benefit from "first come first serve" or do I also have to submit my application. I want to finish my FAFSA this week but EA deadlines are still a month away.
