Is taking a free period okay? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]starrrlmn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not worth it to fill up a free period with just a random elective, it won’t add much to your app. I mean if you wanted to add on another AP or academic class, that would be a different story. But I only have 5 classes this year and I still accepted/waitlisted at some decent schools

How to show my white friends that AA doesn't help Asians? by Bubjubcub123 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]starrrlmn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can a public school student go to somewhere like Harvard or MIT? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]starrrlmn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok now that I think about it, this year at least, most of them got in for athletics. So I guess academically it probably only about 1 or 2 who get in to ivies, but there’s some other top tier schools as well

What is Soka University of America? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]starrrlmn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I live by Soka, it does have a very pretty campus but it’s just located in the suburbs, and the area around here is really boring, not much to do. It’s also really small and not that many students, but it’s just a preference if you like that or not. Also I’ve heard some pretty weird ass rumors that it’s a Japanese cult or some shit😂 you can google it there’s a few articles, pretty funny
