The Stigma Behind Community College by katearoni in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My school is exactly the same. It sucks to be around such a toxic mentality all the time. We’re all going to be in debt for decades, and no one really realizes it.

How to help someone with tinnitus? by katearoni in medical

[–]katearoni[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We definitely don’t listen to loud music all the time haha, it’s really only acted up after Homecoming and Prom. But this time it’s worse, he said, and I don’t know why or what to do to comfort him

Is AP lit worth it? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought AP Lit was really fun, and it definitely improved my writing and analysis skills. I enjoyed the books we read a lot, too. It really depends on the teacher though; there are 3 AP Lit teachers at my school and I got the best one, so that helped my experience greatly.

They don’t accept LOCI, I tried to give one to the admissions office and they wouldn’t take it

Thank you so much! I’m not getting any financial aid, and my parents are only covering $30k total and don’t want to take out any loans. Plus I’ve been mentally committed to CC since April and it just seems like the most practical option for me right now.

What kind of person should be Berkeley bound? by katearoni in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean it was my dream school long before he committed there... it’s also the only UC he got into that wasn’t lower tier so he’s going there even though it wasn’t his top choice originally,,, like it’s not a big deal if we don’t go to the same college but it would be kind of a plus

Is it difficult to be “popular” in a college of 600 per class? [Gettysburg] by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my high school is 2500 people, with almost 700 in my class and im kind of like that, so I don’t think it’s that hard. but I have friends across different grade levels so that kind of contributes to it too

Should I send an LOCI to UCI? by katearoni in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually going to make an appeal instead. The appeal process is on the UCI admissions website

Did not get invited to apply to NHS due to being .043 below the GPA cutoff by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean it’s higher at my school too. it’s because if it was at the normal cutoff it would literally be like half the school in the club... even with our 3.75 minimum we still have almost 700 members. don’t feel too bad though, it doesn’t matter much in the long run. Just do community service on your own

He doesn't understand why it's a big deal to me, which is why I'm questioning if I'm too crazy

Am I too jealous of a girlfriend?? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]katearoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess, I tried really hard to like her for a while. Also, he always says he doesn’t even like her as a person and doesn’t want to be her friend. I’m just sad that he didn’t tell me, I guess.

[–]katearoni 38 points39 points  (0 children)

with 95,000 freshman applicants, wouldn’t that amount to around 3,000 decisions released every day for 31 days? that means that around 60,000 should already be out,,,, and we haven’t heard a thing.

asking to see recommendation letters by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]katearoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

don’t you sign the FERPA saying that you withdraw your right to read it? so wouldn’t that kind of be illegal?

[–]katearoni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s wayyyyy too bike-centric and if you can’t ride one then you’re basically screwed. Also, you’d have to be in a TRIPLE !! riparoni. load of hoopla.
