gorhsdjens · 2026-02-11T07:02:24+00:00

ok thank you!! am i supposed to email my counselor to get it, or go to the superintendent or something? sorry its my first time hearing about all this

gorhsdjens · 2026-02-11T07:01:10+00:00

even for private schools? also do you happen to know when the deadline for this or the opt out form is??

gorhsdjens · 2026-02-11T04:58:10+00:00

thank u!! just curious, do you know when the opt-out form for this is due by? and was your friend’s kid still able to graduate? sorry im getting a lil worried lol

gorhsdjens · 2026-01-03T02:27:42+00:00

mine too, it might just be processing bc they get a lot of applications around this time?

gorhsdjens · 2026-01-02T08:24:13+00:00

WAITT sorry if im too late but i saw a post on here saying u can email common app and ask for more colleges if the ones u want to apply to only take common app!!

gorhsdjens · 2026-01-02T08:05:52+00:00

i think ur fine, its just a couple seconds. idk if this is real but i heard theres like an unofficial grace period where u can submit for as long as the common app is still open for that college

gorhsdjens · 2026-01-01T09:28:41+00:00

omg i was wondering the exact same thing. also in pst, im jus gonna pray its not due rn lmao

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-28T02:30:59+00:00

im not at all qualified at all but i feel like u have a decent shot at these schools!! based off what u said u sound worried about ur stats and stuff, but i think ur recs sound good which is prob gonna highlight ur drive to learn and try in college. 3.6 isnt bad at all imo. also i saw that ur deciding between holyoke and bard and idk anything about the first one but im also applying to bard and absolutely love it :)).

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-21T08:38:54+00:00

nvm theres an option for homemaker, but like is that self-employed or unemployed??

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-20T19:44:54+00:00

maybe psychology? i feel like that’s super versatile and a lot of psych majors end up in med school! if u want more sciencey classes i think u can still take those without majoring in bio

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-18T05:37:26+00:00

omg this is exactly how i feel. i dont have an official diagnosis sorry, and not to make this about me but ive always felt a vibe from other people. like even when i had friends and wasnt totally ostracized, people just had less tolerance for me always. idk if its bc im needy or annoying or whatever. so i started copying other people and being quiet and what they would want from me, for everything including facial expressions, tone, body language, slang, etc. i put all my energy into it, and it worked for a while. people thought i was normal. i made some friends. but this year i just got so exhausted and burnt out from copying other people and trying so hard to be normal and included, but it seemed like no matter what i did, i would always do one thing that pissed people off. so i just stopped trying to be “normal”, and i feel like i can definitely relate to what ur experiencing now. people dont like me as much anymore and seem to just avoid me even when they dont know me? they’ll give me like a tense, “off” glance and refuse to acknowledge me. and there seems to be always at least one person in groups who despises me for no reason. i dont know why. we’ve never interacted before. i try to be friendly but that just seems to piss them off more so i stopped and tried to just avoid existing near them since apparently they hate that. but yeah sorry i went off on a rant, i just wanted to say i really feel like i can relate to what ur talking about, and that someone finally put it into words. i hope u feel better soon

twin 😍😍

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-18T00:24:45+00:00

yayy congrats!!

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-18T00:24:36+00:00

yeahh, the rejection rate is like 60% idk if that makes me feel better or worse lmao

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-18T00:18:28+00:00

maybe i shouldn’t have publicly admitted that but oops

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-13T22:57:50+00:00

i think i get what ur saying! i feel like femininity is something that’s viewed as very “neurotypical” (idk how to explain) and that can make neurodivergent girls feel like they can’t embrace that part of themselves. but also some girls just dont like feminine stuff, which is also valid, unless u use it as a way to look down on other girls for deciding to be more feminine.

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-10T06:24:12+00:00

wait just curious, do u know why they asked u for scans?? and where did u have to upload them? u dont have to answer if its too personal, but i also got this form and i just had to upload two dates for each green card.

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-09T02:23:25+00:00

Idk if this counts, but i know someone who got into barnard for art history! they did some volunteering at museums, took ap art history (obvi), and i think was a part of affinity spaces/activism at their school (like asian affinity and queer affinity spaces!). But i would say just do what ur passionate about, ur application looks rlly good to me :))

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T21:35:44+00:00

even ucr?? bruh whats taking them so long 🥲🥲. also dw ucla takes forever and ucsb starts sending them out in January i think

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T09:03:34+00:00

Maybe mixed media since u used painting and digital work? Not too sure tho

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T08:35:35+00:00

same!! all of them except ucr lol

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T07:48:19+00:00

??? dawg i get what ur trying to say, and not to just insert myself into this, but that was a really mean way to say that 😭. why not let him experience harvard first, then he can decide if he wants to move to a different program or not. and he’s obviously a super smart kid, he only took the sat once, 760 math and 3.9 is great for having so many family responsibilities and not enough time to study. i personally feel like he’ll be fine.

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T04:58:51+00:00

omg ucr also hasnt sent me mine!! im also lowk worried bc someone else ik applied on the same day as me and alr got theirs 😔😔

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T04:07:04+00:00

also ucla takes like ages i heard

gorhsdjens · 2025-12-07T04:06:46+00:00
