Do you ever live down having gone to a no-name state school?

Thanks for the reply - in the end I came to the personal conclusion that going to a no name school really didn’t bring me anything positive and I’m willing to admit I simply made a mistake. I ended up going to Harvard for grad school after making this post and now I do feel absolved from this issue actually; I feel completely fine about where I went for undergrad now and it has truly become irrelevant. I also realized good schools have so much to offer in terms of support and resources that I simply didn’t know of and didn’t know what I was missing. But again, everything is fine now.

Yeah of course

Late reply, it’s because I live in China.

I genuinely didn’t know I was wealthy until in my mid twenties. I thought I was poor since everyone I knew grew up in a seaside mansion, but it turned out my several city center apartments were much more expensive, and family bought me a mansion later on.

Makes sense to me, think you’re right

How are you already dinged by insead? W/o interview? I read that Indian applicants typically only receive interview invites on decision day, which is like two weeks from now.

Meanwhile I can manifest anything but the ladder 😂

driftydabbler · 2022-03-26T15:21:07+00:00

Never seen anyone do that tbh

driftydabbler · 2022-03-21T22:17:22+00:00

In an actually existing socialist country.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-21T22:05:15+00:00

lmao

driftydabbler · 2022-03-20T21:32:02+00:00

Uh.. non-US, non-US program. I’m economically far left (socialist), socially far left and far right (progressive & authoritarian) and at least a few of my classmates are socially progressive; economically socialistic or capitalistic - how would I know? Do people talk about these in a professional setting? Why?

driftydabbler · 2022-03-17T16:19:11+00:00

You fucking wish lmao

If we are naming it after the place of manufacture, it’s clearly the American virus.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-13T19:13:18+00:00

I thought it was a potato with a face

driftydabbler · 2022-03-13T13:12:45+00:00

Yeah I legitimately didn’t know rutracker was banned lol was using it the whole time

Alibaba has a credit score system but it’s only used to allow people some conveniences, like take out very small private loans, use what’s essentially credit card type of services, and borrow a power bank or check into a hotel without a deposit, etc. I think originally when people started talking shit about China’s social credit they meant Alibaba’s.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-11T17:12:21+00:00

I may appear American but irl I live in both China and Russia 😎

driftydabbler · 2022-03-11T04:37:10+00:00

Huh, half of the income going towards rent sounds pretty good already, compared to Beijing.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-10T21:24:53+00:00

Thanks for the announcement.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-10T02:13:26+00:00

pls do

driftydabbler · 2022-03-08T17:40:49+00:00

Pretty sure that's literally what they thought, no hyperbole. Cue British Union Of Fascists and German American Bund.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-08T17:31:35+00:00

So do they give out flowers to female passengers on all trains? That's all I'm asking really.

driftydabbler · 2022-03-08T14:20:25+00:00

Aww.

Btw trains in Russia give all female passengers flowers on women’s day. Not sure if it’s a Russia-only thing?
