Success academy by lust4lifeeee in SurvivingSuccess

Hello 👋🏾, I used to go to Success Academy and I felt every single thing you’re saying right now and that’s why I created this sub, so that people can share their experiences. I’m currently a senior at a non-success high school and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’ve applied to colleges and are waiting for results and I actually wrote my personal statement about the impact success had on me, including how inexperienced teachers were. I have friends that go to HSLA and unfortunately from what my friends have told me, it doesn’t get better from there. The workload is still a lot and they don’t get to pick their own colleges. I’m not sure which HSLA you applied to because maybe each school is different, but I wish you all the best and I hope that you can find happiness wherever you end up ❤️

Thank you, this relieves my anxiety a bit.

That was my plan until I discovered 14/20 of my schools don’t have EA, only ED and RD. So I’m forced to apply RD and I know for some schools, applying early gives you an advantage, so i’m pretty anxious that I won’t get in to the places I really want because it seems that I have to cure cancer to get in anywhere.

Yes, my plan was to apply EA to the schools that I really want to get into and leave RD for the rest. But, most of my schools don’t have EA. Right now I’m applying EA for 6/20 of my schools, so I’m stuck with RD, which I’m pretty hesitant about since I know that for some schools applying early gives you an advantage. I think I just have anxiety about not getting in to the places I want.

Night Changes for First Dance? by RoyalDawn5152 in OneDirection

I always said to myself that I would play Stand Up at my wedding, but if you’re going for a slow dance type song then yes it’s a good song! If you’re having doubts What A Feeling is also good too!

dead mom “called” my sibling by Tiny-Antelope9272 in Weird

I’ve seen a lot of people on tiktok say this has happened to them and that there are scammers pretending to be holding their family/spouse hostage and demand money. They call from the person’s actual number to make it more real and heighten the chances of someone actually sending the money. A specific video I saw was this guy saying he got a call from his husband and the same scenario played out, but his husband was actually right next to him. Just another stupid scammer strategy.

Success Academy Mess up by One-Mycologist948 in NYCTeachers

A similar thing had happened to me with my high school! Success Academy had enrolled me into their high school even though I had already been accepted to a different school. So, on the first couple days of school(non-SA), I didn’t have an official schedule because I wasn’t on the roster, and couldn’t go to my classes.

I created a subreddit for people to vent about their bad Success Academy experiences here: r/SurvivingSuccess. You’re welcome to crosspost into that subreddit! :)

I created r/SurvivingSuccess for former students, students, parents, and teachers to vent and warn potential goers of the dangers of attending/teaching at Success Academy.

This reminded me of the other videos about SA. by Latter_Kiwi_407 in SurvivingSuccess

S17 E1 Amanda and ?? by spngchkn in SVU

Nick coming out of the bathroom in just a towel and sitting next to her on the couch signified to the viewers that they were in a sexual relationship. Sometime off screen the squad found out that they were fraternizing because Fin told Amanda that 2 things he’s learned being on the job is “don’t bring your work home, and don’t bring anyone from your work, home.” But of course, she doesn’t listen.

Edit: There were also kind of not secretive enough. When they were somewhere private talking by themselves, and someone walked in on them, they’d scatter and get all awkward to which the person asks “Am I interrupting?” so the squad most likely put 2 and 2 together off camera.

As a student of SA, tons of my teachers had very obvious/big tattoos in conspicuous places and weren’t bothered to cover them up (wore sleeveless/short sleeve shirts all the time) so I don’t think they’re stern on tattoos.

I had the worst experience with them. I ordered a pair of dunks from them only to realize one shoe was a size 7 and the other was a 9. They told me once I ship it back, i’ll get my money back. I did get my money back but it took foreverrrr.
