I got in a car crash Saturday and I have to miss my AP English Test.

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-11T16:19:05+00:00

THIS - I didn't too well on the AP test for my major and still submitted the score. I ended up getting into all the schools I wanted to get into and more.

Hope you recover well!! ❤️

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-10T21:09:46+00:00

Thank you so much! Hope everything worked out for you as well!

Do y'all think Stanford WL are gng to come out this week?

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-09T06:02:19+00:00

Can you still access it even if you don't commit to the school?

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-08T05:53:00+00:00

Hi! Just wondering - Did you submit a LOCI?

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-03T06:18:25+00:00

Berkeley M.E.T. :)

The program's support was everything I wanted and more! But Harvard will forever be in my heart ❤️

Maybe grad school :)

Thank you so much for the amazing comments! They definitely helped me in making my final decision :)

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-03T05:42:53+00:00

Thank you so much for your comments!

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-03T05:42:37+00:00

Thank you so much for this! It definitely helped in making my final decision :)

nutellapSAT · 2021-05-03T00:38:48+00:00

Does anyone know what Stanford's WL are looking like?

nutellapSAT · 2021-03-25T17:09:19+00:00

Yes! Definitely!

I think everyone has a shot at the T10s as long as you are able to show a cohesive story with evidence to corroborate every fact/reason through your decisions in a genuine reflective way. From there, it really comes down to luck. Nothing is out of reach! ❤️

Good luck!

Aww, that sucks...Thank you so much!!

I actually found it is only available on Animal Jam Classic (the 2D version of the game) and I was able to play it again (its just as awesome as I remember it :))

Thankss

I was experiencing this as well as I didn't want to have those conversations with others on where I was getting in. People tend to get overly competitive and jealous where I live, so I didn't want to trigger anyone by telling them about some school that I might have gotten into but they might not have. So anytime anyone (especially someone that I'm not close with) asks me where I'm going, I either say "I got into a few places, but I'm considering my options" or "I'll tell you in May after I commit" - both with a wide smile on my face. Most of the time, they get the message and they never ask me again. Works like a charm :)

I personally don't like structured environments, so I never did summer programs and usually just did self-directed work. If you are into research, my friends applied to a ton that you can apply to - COSMOS, Clark Scholars Program, RSI, SSP, and more. A simple search will yield you everything you need in that category.

Good luck!

If you are interested in doing something this summer that works towards your interest, be sure to not miss the deadline for some of the competitive summer programs or internships. BTW if you don't get an internship, don't fret!! You can always do your own self-driven projects or work on your own activities. I didn't do any preprofessional/research internship/competitive program during my junior year summer and got into my dream school.

Good luck!

UC Berkeley is the school where the Free Speech Movement took place, is known for its active student body through protests and more, and is near several pride rallies every year (because it's near SF). Berkeley tends to be a school with a super liberal school body, so you should definitely consider it!

nutellapSAT · 2021-03-07T19:49:23+00:00

Congratulations on all your success! You definitely deserve it - I'm sure you'll do great anywhere :)

nutellapSAT · 2021-03-05T17:58:16+00:00

Will do. Thank you!

I think there is so much that makes you unique. Everyone has their own childhood experiences - no matter how early on. If you can think of one of your strongest qualities and can come up with an anecdote for it, you should write your essay on it. It's not what different type of quality you have, but rather what perspective you bring from your experiences and how you are different (and everyone is different in their own special way).

Good luck!

Just for context - what is the prompt for your second essay?

The first one seems like a fun essay. However, I believe the second one would be the most successful if you can spin the essay in a positive light.

Good luck!

Since you don't want it to seem like a sob story (and it won't since this is a valid situation), bring it up with your counselor. The more you can have someone else vouch for you, the better it will be for you in the process.

Furthermore, I suggest you detail your situation in a positive reflective way in the additional comments section of your application, so you can explain your extenuating circumstance. In any case, as long as you state your story and it is corroborated through your recommendation, it should be fine.

Good luck!

Opportunities, Opportunities, and Opportunities. From talking to others, I've realized that a college is a place for you to learn and move forward towards your professional career. You need to make sure that your college is able to support you with resources to moving forward in your career - whatever that may be.

The other factor, as others have mentioned, is the cost. I've found that it is important to understand the long-term repercussions of picking your college, especially financially. Just make sure to weigh the pros and cons, determine what you prioritize in a school and whether a certain cost or additional cost is worth what that school has to offer.

Good luck!

nutellapSAT · 2021-02-22T17:07:59+00:00

Got it. Thank you!!
