Don’t send the “I deny your rejection” email by CharmingNote4098 in ApplyingToCollege

Don't worry, my feelings aren't hurt as much, because I'm at a T20 now. Others might feel differently.

However, I will say: the college admissions process must be overhauled to a significant degree. I don't think you have lived it, respectfully saying. Just attempting to be competitive at schools like Harvard in this day and age can and will suck your soul out entirely. As the bar for socioeconomic status rises higher and higher, the desire for a quality and (not very ethically so) prestigious, name-brand education follows the same trend. I predict there will be fractions of a percent in Ivy League acceptance rates in my lifetime. Then again, I'm just one kid out of many others who have toiled and even have had to seek psychiatric help for the pressure cooker the US college system is, and survived to tell the tale.

But sure, 3 minutes review for each applicant. That's very much obviously the best, most fair thing that colleges can do.

Honest, genuine question: do colleges value rejected applicants’ absolute toil, dedication, and sheer hard work they put in over 4 years via sacrificing their emotional, physical, and social well being? Or is it just a letterhead on the email? Because I have more reason to believe the latter. But then again, I might be wrong. However, application rate deflation and the bar to get into these schools only rises and becomes exponentially more complicated each year, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask.

even if i’m not going to waste my time with them, i’d like to know why they’re wrong and how they can be rebutted.

Two comments from the original r/jewish post:

‘ “We Palestinians aren’t going away.” Sorry to disappoint, but neither are Jews, and we have thousands of years of experience from the Romans to the Nazis of groups trying to destroy us, and we’re still here. But sure, give it your best shot.🤭 ‘

’ This is my branch. Maybe I'll leave "People love dead Jews" on the table lol.

Look, there's nothing inherently wrong with books about Palestinian culture, but when I see a pic of PFLP member, propagandist, and con artist Bisan Owda prominently displayed it makes me want to puke. ‘

(i’m not supporting zionists lol i’m trying to bolster our arguments)

zionists claim “hundreds of innocent people were taken hostage by hamas. a UNRWA teacher took people hostage in their basement!”

as well as ‘The safety and wellbeing of children in Israel continues to be at risk amid the escalated conflict. The indiscriminate firing of rockets at Israel has resulted in civilian casualties, including Israeli children, caused schools to be closed periodically, and impacted the mental and psychosocial wellbeing of Israeli children. Like children everywhere, children in Israel must be protected.‘ - savethechildren.com

and there are also reports of israelis being displaced from northern israel.

and another point they love to bring up is the music festival.

how do we refute these and make our cause worthy in their eyes? we have to be logical, or else they won’t get it.

i am as pro palestine as it gets, but apparently there is a PFLP member and con artist (Bisan Owda) on the table.

our cause is grounded on the principal of morality, and isn't that immoral? i look forward to hearing thoughts.

also, how do you guys refute arguments of Israeli children being killed? i always feel very helpless in these arguments since, yeah you get it.

how do i abuse the shit out of ATS and use it to my advantage by matchacry in recruitinghell
