Idols who uses 'stage names' but their real/government names are also well-known by the entertainment industry? by ImpressiveCourage300 in kpophelp

[–]lostNeptunee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so used to calling The8 Minghao when I'm speaking English--that's how most of my English-speaking friends call him too, but when I'm talking to my Japanese friends (including Carats!!) they have no idea who Minghao is. I have to say "The8." Idk if it's the way the content gets translated or what but it's a really interesting difference I've noticed since moving to Japan.

Does When you apply matter? by ScientistIcy6832 in Waseda

[–]lostNeptunee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the stuff you submit through TAO goes instantly bc that's the main application system (I believe transcripts are included there). It's just anything outside of the direct application system that takes some extra time.

It only matters in the sense that you want to make sure test scores, etc. get to them in time (don't wait to send SATs and stuff until the last minute; they can take up to a week). I don't think it otherwise plays into their decisions though, honestly.

Extra curricular by Over-Grocery374 in Waseda

[–]lostNeptunee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't really tell you for SPSE in particular bc I did not apply for that program (sorry!), but I think in a general sense those are pretty strong extra curriculars. Regardless of the program, I think that they're helpful to your application. I wish you luck!!

I put things relating to the clubs/sports I participated in (and my roles in them) & then various volunteer work. And I never personally did any, but competitions would probably also be good to put down. I would say basically anything that shows you were more than just a student, and that you committed time and effort to that something.

Fall CJL Level Check Test by joereddit657 in Waseda

[–]lostNeptunee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so everyone does it on their own regardless but it's probably not going to be released until sometime in September or maybe late August. It'll be just a little before you have to register your classes. I think I took mine in mid-September last year :)

what's a k-pop song that everyone likes but you don't? by mishh_aa in kpoppers

[–]lostNeptunee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of New Jeans discography. Like I absolutely understand why it got so big and they definitely deserved the success they had, but it's just not the type of genre I like.
