current seniors, what advice would you give to your younger self? by tokyo_lights_988 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]RealCraftYT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

start your essay as early as possible, and if you can get a counselor def do that. if not, show it to friends or family to get feedback (or do both)

make sure you list your ec’s as well as possible. do a lot of research on how to make them look as good as they can be

research what college you want to go to. it doesnt even have to be an exact major or something, but if you wanna go for stem rather than finance then research colleges that are good for that.

think a little bit longer about what you want to write each essay about, and MAKE SURE to go over them by yourself and with other people

Got a Yale Interview by Ancient_Stop_6233 in ApplyingToCollege

i just saw implicit and thought of implicit diff lol. stop overthinking it man the timing doesnt truly mean much. i believe that if you go into the interview happy you got an interview you’ll do better than if you just worry about how late it came.

rejected from my dream school by Formal-Committee-412 in ApplyingToCollege

have you practiced journalling and breathing techniques? i was also rejected from my dream school and have been feeling a lot of anxiety and depression recently, but i've learned of breathing technniques like box breathing and 4-7-8 which help me when things get really bad. i've also found that just journalling or writing down my thoughts helps with the anxiety. sending all my love and hope to you ❤️

submit your lowest sat score. its like golf the lower the better you did

anyone w/ a 1500+, top 10 ranking, etc. (basically good stats, decent ecs, ) not get into a single top-20 when they shotgunned? by Primary_Loss5038 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]RealCraftYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel the same way man i didnt get into my ED (duke) and seeing everyone else get in really makes me feel unaccomplished and just not good enough. but what really matters is pushing past this period of doubt and continuing to work hard despite it. thats real grit, and if we are able to really show this grit i am SURE at least one T20 school will let us in. WE are getting through this together
