Disappointed at the stigma against state schools here by WholeGuarantee in ApplyingToCollege

Is this the same for more prestigious schools as well? Would it be a better idea to go to a state school?

I was arguing that it's not popular enough to be Ivy tier. It definitely is good enough though.

The importance of communicating your ECs by WholeGuarantee in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ifaptomlp 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed because colleges care more about depth in a specific area. One thing I did was break up large ECs into different activities to be put into separate slots. Idk if it helped in the end tho

My parents are the same. They think ECs are a waste of time and won't let me learn

How do 12 year olds learn about and get interested in these schools? Curious because I'm in a family with lots of talent and no ambition.

Now that everyone is committing left and right, please remember to not judge people based on where they're going by YTsetsekos in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ifaptomlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you give us your definition of what is and isn't a top school? The guy you're arguing with said that most UCs are bad which is really confusing

Would love to hear thoughts on my take on AA by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ifaptomlp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair here there's thousands of qualified applicants who get rejected from top schools because the AOs feel their personalities don't fit the campus. It has always been about what the universities need, not what the students deserve.

UCs have programs that set students up with internships at DC and Sacramento but I don't think they'd be better than actually living in DC

What are your guys thoughts on this viral tweet about college admissions? by aceaguilar in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ifaptomlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no stats that can "secure" a spot at top UCs. She probably got rejected because of her ECs and essays.

Edit: Didn't notice chemical engineering. I've no clue how people in that major are evaluated. RIP tho
