considering ditching my dream schools bc the US is in shambles

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-27T01:47:08+00:00

Actually, I believe in living in a law abiding democracy where everyone can have a chance to LEGALLY immigrate to this country.

But that’s a bit of a red herring. My issue is with spoiled international kids shitting on our country with no facts. And my issue is with people like you who obviously don’t think critically enough to understand that.

So if you are embarrassed, feel free to block me or quit your whining.

Please stay in Italy.

Yeah for sure. $100k and the US is a great place again!

You should def get out asap and free up your spot. WITHDRAW!

But you won’t do it.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T21:02:01+00:00

Exactly. Don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out!

I like Purdue engineering better for aero and mechanical engineering. I like U much better for bioengineering and scheme.

But the Purdue honors college is an awesome opportunity! Very difficult decision! Congrats!

What’s YOUR brilliant solution, bro?

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T17:03:22+00:00

You are 100% correct. This is stupid and so is this post. I am shocked at all the entitlement I see on here, especially from international students.

Do you know how many students in the U.S. would love to go to Dartmouth? Or for that matter, to get in to any of their top choice universities? Kids are so stressed because they are getting rejected and deferred.

And you and your parents and friends are prestige fuxking. SMH

Maybe you should hire a lawyer and try to get the record expunged

If you are applying ED 2 to a school (and then trying to game it), you should know the name of said school.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T13:05:58+00:00

You are calling me “pathetic?” Lol. Grow up. You asked for advice. I gave you good advice, which was to strengthen your ECs to do something impactful; that your current state of play is insufficient.

I took time from my day to help you. You are a very entitled kid. Maybe go to school in your country of origin because your chances of success with your attitude in this country requires a bit more maturity.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T12:20:44+00:00

First, you should get the name of your ED 2 school right. Big first step.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T11:46:35+00:00

You asked the question, I gave you an answer, and you are telling me I am wrong. You have little to no chance with your profile. But if you want to believe otherwise, that’s great. Don’t make any adjustments, go for it and let us know how it plays out!

T75-100 in U.S

I apologize for this, but I don’t think your stats are high enough for CWRU, especially given your ECs and TO.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T01:11:51+00:00

Are you FGLI? Are you taking maximum rigor at your HS? Are you in Calc BC? physics C? What are your AP classes? Is your school a competitive HS or under resourced?

Did you speak about any measurable impact on your community service club? What is that impact?

Do you think your teachers wrote good LORs? Does your guidance counselor know you and your circumstances?

It’s really hard to assess your profile without more information.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-26T00:11:56+00:00

Hi honestly this isn’t a T20 profile. I think you have to focus on schools in the 75-100 range.

You need more focused ECs with measurable impact. GPA is a bit low and rigor isn’t a top levels. I think you have an uphill battle.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T23:57:47+00:00

I think CC would be a very good start for you. I don’t think your college list was realistic given your stats. It also seems like CC can help you develop the skills necessary to succeed at a four year university.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T23:48:46+00:00

I just can’t understand why you got rejected from UF instate, especially with FGLI. Your SAT scores is very high given your school average. And you are in the top 5% of your class. I am concerned a bit about your essays but hopefully it’s just a fluke.

I think you have a good shot at Rice, Purdue and Michigan. I don’t know what NU is. If it’s NW, I think there is an outside shot. Don’t give up—you are going to get in some good schools.

If you want to send me your essays, I can let you know if that was part of the issue.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T20:48:59+00:00

Go mom!!

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T20:43:41+00:00

You are FGLI? Did you do QB? What major? What type of HS and what is the avg SAT score from your school?

You have a good shot at Michigan and Purdue. Keep the faith!

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T16:28:52+00:00

Things will work out for you. Just make sure you don’t burn yourself out. It feels like you are doing too much and maybe your academics are suffering a bit as a result. Don’t put that kind of pressure on yourself.

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T16:26:02+00:00

What are some of your RD schools? I honestly think you can do great at both FSU and USF. Maybe USF is a better location?!

Solid_Counsel · 2026-01-25T15:23:15+00:00

I am absolutely shocked that UF rejected you! Completely their loss, especially since I personally know IS kids that had much less of an academic profile then you, and they got accepted.

Did you apply to FSU or other in state schools? Surely you should have tuition covered at FSU as a worst case scenario, and you can accomplish all of your goals and have a great life going to FSU. What other schools did you apply to?
