[olive warren]

I thyink you can???

[unreal compass]

you can

[olive warren]

I glanced at the rules for 0.00003 seconds

and saw nothing

against it

[lyric cradle]

ok ill be fine

guys i opened my book

and its about yale.

WHAT

[olive warren]

Demise

[lyric cradle]

is this a sign man

nah i refuse to think

[dense tendon]

i’m definitely gonna get rejected/maybe deferred but mannnn if i were accepted that’d be so incredible

[unreal compass]

you wanna know the one thing i’m genuinely excited to do

i want to make my harvard email

<my name>@harvard.edu

sounds so smooth

[lyric cradle]

hahhaha fair enough

i just dont want to be rejected cos im asian

[sleek dirge]

bro I read about this and wtf

Why

Like why would they just straight up reject Asians because of their ethnic background

[warped sigil]

They wouldn't "exactly"

They just see a bunch of high-achieving asian applicants and claim, especially in interviews, that they have no significant distinguishing factors

[sleek dirge]

Actually I wrote my second essay "how I want to use my Harvard degree" on my own background and how I want to represent properly Balkan/Eastern European people and break the stigmas

[sleek dirge]

ahhhh

because when I was reading articles and posts about this issue no one really addressed the reasoning

behind the rejections

[warped sigil]

Admittedly, there isn't a great reason

[lyric cradle]

someone was also saying that people get judged on name a lot

[warped sigil]

But that's the thinking^

[lyric cradle]

like i have an asian name, does that give me a worse chance? arguably yes

[warped sigil]

There is a correlation

[sleek dirge]

oh my

[lyric cradle]

its ok to

[warped sigil]

I thought a "more Asian" name might make ur chances higher

[lyric cradle]

in my yale application i like fully call them out on it

[warped sigil]

As far as "admitting a diverse class" bs goes

[lyric cradle]

cos i felt bold

also asked the harvard interviewer on it too

i talk about it a lot so

[warped sigil]

What did your interviewer say?

[lyric cradle]

they were like

yeah but black and latina people go through more systemic racism

which is why harvard have their reasons

[warped sigil]

Bro?

Mfs said "yeah" Lmfao

[lyric cradle]

yeah

and she was asian lmao

[warped sigil]

Gddman

[sleek venture]

HELLO

[unreal compass]

[sly shore]

[sleek venture]

[lyric cradle]

[sly shore]

Its against severr rules

[sleek venture]

nah that's kinda messed up

[sly shore]

They dont want ppl getting political about a-action

[unreal compass]

we spoke it at home for a bit but then i got whitewashed into the US education system and we started using english :/

[sly shore]

:((((

[lyric cradle]

oh right

[sleek venture]

false election

oh and thats not censored

[sly shore]

But its hella cool to meet someone else on here thats romanian

[lyric cradle]

oh god

[unreal compass]

very true, do you live in romania?

[sly shore]

Bruh this a college server whose talking about elections on here lmao

[sleek dirge]

I didn't expect to see any Balkans in this server tbh

[lyric cradle]

its important

[warped sigil]

Irish too

[sly shore]

Nah born US, but i grew up in RO, then came back for US education

[unreal compass]

oh that’s really cool

[warped sigil]

Bro came back for U.S. education

[sly shore]

Not saying it isnt but if i were a mod i would expect ppl to get into fights about a action more so than other topics on here

[unreal compass]

my mom immigrated 2 years before i was born but my grandparents live in romania and the vast majority of my extended family

i’ve been there and i’m going back this year

[sly shore]

I love it there

[unreal compass]

me too :( all of the stray dogs on the streets

[sly shore]

I grew up in a yard with like 20 stray cats

[warped sigil]

W

[sly shore]

But theyre getting rid of the strays

[unreal compass]

:0

nooo

[sly shore]

Like after a pitbull mauled a child a couple years back

[unreal compass]

my grandparents live in a city and there’s so many pretty stray dogs on the street

[sly shore]

Bucuresti?

[unreal compass]

No, Iasi

[sly shore]

[olive warren]

[sleek venture]

1 hour

[unreal compass]

we’re more from moldovan region

[lyric cradle]

right ok

[unreal compass]

i’ve been to Bucharest and it’s very pretty though

[sly shore]

It is

But not as pretty as Sibiu

[sleek dirge]

My only memory in Bucharest is how a donkey chased me when I was younger

[unreal compass]

I loved the cathedrals in Iasi

[sly shore]

yeah

romania is a beautiful country

foods great too

[unreal compass]

truly yeah

and cheap

[sly shore]

imo the girls are also prettier there

but thats just me

[unreal compass]

real (me as a romanian girl)

[sly shore]

totally not biased at all 🤣

[sleek dirge]

I am so sad how Bulgaria and Romania are seen outside the Balkans

[unreal compass]

because of the cold war :/

[sleek dirge]

Like we are so chill and cool and all

[sly shore]

yeah theyre in like a weird special corner

[unreal compass]

it’s a weird sort slavic/balkan boundary

[sly shore]

not entirely slavic, not entirely latin based, and theyre not really seen as a part of any group

its the weird in between

[bleak venture]

im from romania too

buna

[hollow jasper]

lmao

[unreal compass]

:')

[hollow jasper]

i'm on edge lol sry if i sound rude

[sleek dirge]

what are your desired majors btw

[unreal compass]

i wish it was night for me rn so i could just sleep

[hollow jasper]

i can't control myself rn

[unreal compass]

astrophysics :))

[hollow jasper]

Gov

[sleek dirge]

SAMEEE

[hollow jasper]

noice

i might do CS as a secondary though

because I'm interested in the role of computer science in politics and judicial system

[sleek dirge]

that's cooool

I haven't thought that far

[hollow jasper]

I saw a ted talk on it a whiiiile back which helped focus my interest

[unreal compass]

thats really neat :D

im interested in astrodynamics and space policy!!

combined educational policy with space and its something i hope to pursue on the side

[hollow jasper]

sweet

[sleek dirge]

ahaha actually on my application (when I downloaded the pdf) I saw I accidentally chose East Asian Studies instead on Slavic Studies lol

[hollow jasper]

it's super cool how we all have ambitions that are genuinely interesting and not vague

[unreal compass]

uh oh... did you email them?

[unreal compass]

yeah! I talked a lot with my interviewer abt it, I think by having unique passions it'll help you out

[sleek dirge]

My second choice for majoring in Europe was aerospace engineering but like

[unreal compass]

AEROSPACEEE

aaaaa

[sleek dirge]

I don't think I am that bright

[unreal compass]

I applied to georgia tech for ae

I wanted to do AE for forever

[sleek dirge]

no, because I don't think they can do anything about it

[unreal compass]

luckily they dont admit by major

[sleek dirge]

The bad part is that I used my whole application to explain how proud I am to be Bulgarian and blah blah and at the end I chose to study East Asian Studies

Like if 2+2 is 4

[unreal compass]

yeahhhhhhhhhhh its okay LMAO

[sleek dirge]

My things aren't adding up

[unreal compass]

close enough? haha

[hollow jasper]

won't be the end of the world as many ppl change major

[unreal compass]

yup

[hollow jasper]

so as long as they see passion

u should be fine

[sleek dirge]

I genuinely think it is the most interesting

[hollow jasper]

but yeah ig it isn't ideal but I doubt that'll make or break ur application

[unreal compass]

it is really neat, it's just really math heavy though

[sleek dirge]

yeah exactly why I didn't go for it

[unreal compass]

I honestly prefer it a bit more because of how math oriented it is, Im stronger in math than physics

[sleek dirge]

I actually am tutoring kids (10-18) and my focus is astronomy and physics, history, geography and literature

[unreal compass]

wow that's so cool!

[mystic herald]

guys if you get deferred and need to cope you can come to me to hear me trash talk harvard so you feel less bad 🥰

[sleek dirge]

We will get in

We have no time for negativity

Not in this household

[unreal compass]

true

[sleek venture]

what the hell happened in india

[unreal compass]

[outer shuttle]

!harvard

[unreal compass]

i will probably just not go to school

but i’m probably not getting in.

also, a really sentimental bracelet of mine just snapped

:(

[prisma pine]

I'm getting ice cream and jumping around a lot

[brave geyser]

Yessir

I think less people apply harvard math than a few other concentrations

less than engineering or CS

[warped sigil]

i’m not even thinking of anything after the decision

[lone girder]

lol tomorrow is my ap econ exam 😦

[unreal compass]

although there were less overall the people applying for math were really really competitive

[warped sigil]

just gotta get to actual decision time

[lone girder]

so chances are I'll have double depression

[latent solstice]

It’s gonna be 4 am here and I’m gonna go out an scream

[sleek venture]

it’s a sign

[brave geyser]

Indeed, hoping that usamo could work magic in that subject regard 🥵

[brave geyser]

I have friends who are super strong at math but applied undecided 🤷‍♂️

[unreal compass]

maybe i needed the karma to restore balance or smth

bracelet snap i get in

i have a massive headache but that’s just weather

[unreal compass]

odd tbh but understandable

[lyric cradle]

hows everyone feeling

[celest chasm]

same

[lone girder]

what's the reasoning behind this?

[amber sluice]

What was your score?

[lone girder]

harvard doesn't ask for olympiad scores, which is kind of annoying bc i keep on failing aime

[amber sluice]

It’s not failing if you’re jmo or amo qual

[brave geyser]

Bronze Medal

USAMO

[lone girder]

nice

[amber sluice]

I didn’t take, what was the cutoff?

[brave geyser]

They asked to self report AMC and AIME scores on their portal so i just reported my highest sitting AMC and AIME score

[lone girder]

last year was ridiculously hard

like blue mop cutoff was an 18-19 but usually it's a 28

[amber sluice]

Was red mop 12 ish?

[lone girder]

11 i think?

[brave geyser]

Yeah lol I got a pathetic 11

[amber sluice]

Wow yeah, that’s what I heard from a blue mopper

[brave geyser]

that was bronze medal cutoff 😂

last year it was hard

[lone girder]

i missed by 3 points bc i fakesolved p1 fml

[brave geyser]

they marked super hard too

[brave geyser]

No idea, he said he doesnt wanna major in math

[brave geyser]

ikr

[coarse jetty]

hii!!!!! good luck everyone rahh

[unreal compass]

gl pigeon!!

[lone girder]

good luck!!!

5 hours holy cow

ngl though maybe it's for the best that I don't get in bc I'd probably be bottom of the class

[latent solstice]

Even If I get a deferral/rejection, I want to hear their comments on my arts portfolio lol 😭

[unreal compass]

doubt it broski

[unreal compass]

Same hahah

[amber sluice]

I mean a lot of people get cut from the get-go so not everyone’s app gets read

[latent solstice]

what did you submit?🤩

[unreal compass]

yeah but usually only for academics btw.

and they won’t cut you for a 3.8 gpa or a 1400

it’s typically like 3.0 gpa 1300 sat

[unreal compass]

visual arts portfolio

a few pieces i was proud of, i tried to curate them more

hard to name them and stuff like that but i made do

[latent solstice]

sounds amazing, I’m sure they were great

[brave geyser]

I also submitted visual arts portfolio

[latent solstice]

Do they get checked by AO’s or professionals?

[sly lodge]

!harvard

[unreal compass]

professionals

aos typically don’t even see it

not all portfolios are reviewed

unless ur applying to arts specifically

[latent solstice]

but good comments from those professionals play role in the application, right?

!harvard

[amber sluice]

MIT says they have AOs read research submissions, does H do the same?

[latent solstice]

last 4 hours😭💀

[lone girder]

5 i think...

[lyric cradle]

yep

[unreal compass]

not really

unless you’re applying to art

[lone girder]

maybe they send it to the departments?

[unreal compass]

if you submit in the portal, the aos review it

if it’s submitted in slideroom, it goes to department

[lone girder]

ohh

but how are aos supposed to know what's good research -_-

[unreal compass]

they’re probably qualified enough to understand..

they’ve got some pretty intelligent people on council

[amber sluice]

Who’s gonna say it

[lone girder]

oh

[unreal compass]

aos aren’t like teenagers glancing at your app then throwing it in the trash

they’re well qualified and go over thousands of apps through many years

so i’d assume they’d be accustomed to a lot of stuff

[lone girder]

hmm ok

[brave geyser]

^^

I submitted mine through slideroom

[inner hearth]

!harvard

[dense tendon]

in the euros he got slandered and abused for no reason

[lyric cradle]

yeah ikr

[dense tendon]

and this time he got brutalised by the french players

[lyric cradle]

i adore saka

one of my fav players

[dense tendon]

and then kane misses and then saka still gets the racist hate?? he was lowkey our best player in that match

yeah he's lovely

[lyric cradle]

soft spot for bellingham too

[lyric cradle]

LITERALLY OMG

[dense tendon]

FRRRR i think everyone loves that man

[lyric cradle]

the england team >>

[dense tendon]

saka and maguire unironically carried it

yeah they're all legends tbf

[lyric cradle]

yeah saka carried this world cup icl

[dense tendon]

maguire doesn't get enough credit in general bc he always tries to belt it and horribly misses

but he held off mbappe and he's done wonders through the euros and wc

humble king

[lyric cradle]

yeah true maguire aint bad at all

[dense tendon]

yeah rashford did absolutely incredible too

[lyric cradle]

[dense tendon]

they're acc too good i love

nah trust bagels sum up america

soft

[lyric cradle]

wait wait

[dense tendon]

sometimes hard

[lyric cradle]

question

[dense tendon]

yuhhhh

[lyric cradle]

sainsbury or tesco

only 1 right answer

[dense tendon]

oooooooooooo

well

well

hear me out

[lyric cradle]

right

[dense tendon]

sainsbury's is like two minutes away from my house

BUT

tesco is around 5 minutes away

tesco cinnamon buns slap and sainsbury's has nothing which is comparable

[lyric cradle]

i love tesco

[dense tendon]

also tesco used to have freeze dried strawberries which i adore

[lyric cradle]

tesco for the win

[dense tendon]

OH and cream soda from america which was scary pricey but yummy

so i guess tesco

YES

[lyric cradle]

hahahaha YES

[dense tendon]

then again my local sainsbury's now has a starbucks in it so????? who knows

[lyric cradle]

brooo what

thats wack

[dense tendon]

tesco has a costa so it's really a battle of wills

ikr

ravishing radishes

[lyric cradle]

costa > starbucks

[dense tendon]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

hmmmmmm

hm

i think in my mind they're equal 😭

[lyric cradle]

hahahahahaha fair enough

[dense tendon]

costa for instance has those brioche cinnamon buns with the lil sprinkling of zest and icing on top

oh those SLAP

nah slap doesn't even cut it

[lyric cradle]

i love costa hot choc

[dense tendon]

[lyric cradle]

starbucks dont even come CLOSE

[dense tendon]

its too much imo

[dense tendon]

but not disparagingly either i like it in summer albeit i lowkey need to rinse w water after

it is pure sugar

i crave

[lyric cradle]

[lyric cradle]

i love crisps

[dense tendon]

savoury slaps tbfff

[lyric cradle]

quavers

[dense tendon]

[lyric cradle]
