I was a little funny in my UMD supplemental. That's it
hello
Hey
we wonât know about ross for a bit
Wdym? Do they not release on Friday?
no just umich we will get ross in february-april
is this the same for cs?
gosh I hope not ... not sure I could do another 2 months of waiting
real
Ross doesnât come out this Friday?
no ross comes out later
bonkers
i'm waiting very patiently for friday
very patiently
i promise
i'm so patient
lmao
yeah big relief
don't even need to open my decisions anymore tbh
is it confirmed friday?
probably
Did everyones portals change?
i think they all show that its being processed
why do i waste my time looking at chance calculators
wut site that
63%? bro its a safety
it gives me 41% for CMU so it cannot be accurate
gl man
lol
0 chance
too many factors
youd need a rly advanced algorithm, database and cooperation from schools (likely would never happen so they can hv applicants) to get an accurate one
mhm
colleges would never cooperate with that lmao
they make so much money from application fees
umich is $75 and 84,000 students applied last year. that's 6.3 mil if you ignore that some have fee waivers
ye thy would never
cuz if a completely accurate one came out
most ppl wouldnt cling on to blind hope for some schools
ugh
i wish college admissions were kinda regulated in some way
more official data
They are
more than they are
The Common Data Set exists
mhm
just talking about all the data that is left out
but it might cost colleges millions in applications they otherwise would have received
The common data set feels like a joke I swear
There are so many questions where the school just leaves it blank
And some schools I canât find theirs from the current year
Stats are gateway imo
Either you have them or you donât
Exactly
Itâs one pt of the admissions process
Like they scale it
Scale
some schools value one over otheer
imo caltech and cmu r like that
caltechs essays were essentially we dgaf who u r jus tell us how good of an engineer u r
yeah stats are just a prerequisite
this was last year when mich released EA... by "starting to get released" does that mean they do it geographically or something?
hoping itâs not 3pm
3pm is in the middle of my chem class
i will not be mentally stable
lol
i have not had anything on my mind this week other than colleges
I legit failed a calc quiz bc of it. Literally wrote "I can't do this anymore" and handed it in
Lmfao
I have an Honors Comp Sci test on Friday.... That shit aint happening
2nd semester activities
im still in first semester đ
Mich is my reach
My senioritirs kicked in like last week, right at semester end
I was thinking about UIUC, so rn I have the UIUC quad cam up. I should be going to fucking sleep
ah well
I have accepted that Michigan isnt happening. too bad. Im hoping that one or two of my other apps on the 27th will be good news
Same. I just made sure my first semester was pristine, bumped myself up to a 4.0. And now I am just barely feeling like turning in assignments on time
Plot twist: Umich dean of admissions stalks this discord and take what we say into consideration
whend u get urs i remember u said u were east right
if u remember
we finished yesterday and ngl too many B+'s : /
this is real asf
if ur doing cs uiuc is most def a reach tho
UIUC CS is insane
I hope my grades this year have helped negate prior years
my current gpa is like a 93-94, and prior years have been lower
I have a B, UW in my CS class
all others are As or A+
i dead didnt know about it till ea cycle was over
so now
mid late afrernoon
i regret
ty
im business.... so like, the 2nd or 3rd most competitive for each school
CS is a pain. I wish you the best of luck
maybe, whoever was reviewing the Michigan apps was drunk, and let all the unqualified fucks, such as myself, in!
that would be nice lmao
lmfao
i hv a legit reason for doin cs ig and has been my goal for a while but ig everyones decided to move that way
thats fair. I like CS, but I just cant do it
my bro does, and he loves it. Worked in CS for 5 years now
i took APCSA and an honors course thats basically data structure
ITs my lowest grade by a full point
i self taught myself most of my cs knowledge cuz where im from there was pre much 0 support for tech students
im tired AF. I'll ttyl. Sweet dreams! Dream of us partying at Michigan, and going to Big House together!
thats cool! I assume gave a nice essay lol
gn
âđž
for my rd schools my U-M essay was mid in my opinion but most ppl say its good
is it confirmed friday 0_0
Yes
Only if you get deferred or apply in regular season
But they may also have your acceptance conditional on your first half grades
pray i get in ea now cuz if they see that chem grade bye bey rd
well its not bad enough to rescind or anything
They can set a condition if they wish
just bad enough to look worse compared to the rest of my grades
by a lot
but not like failing failing
ap chem is not it
Idk. I got an A in it
?
my why umich essay was normal my community essay was unique
and i didnât try to be funny i tried to be authentic
Same
My community essay was probably the most common community. Key club
Omg key club gang bc same
Honestly they probably like that as it demonstrates your writing abilities
what's a key club
How to hook the reader and get them interested
Volunteer organization
Go out into the community and volunteer
do you do that through your hs
Mine was about detective gaming
Yes. There is also a middle school branch, college branch, and graduate branch
Middle school is called builders club
Rip
College and graduate branch is called Kiwanis
But there is also circle K club in college which associates with key club international
do you have this shit bookmarked or something
đ
Mine was bout posting and writing poetry
And the ppl Iâve met
Damn. Yâall creative AF
^
Iâm happy that the only math I need for my field will be jock physics
My community essay was abt an online space I created with 50,000 members
Cool.
i wrote abt the Indian Anime Community and my place+contribution to the movements in it
one of my fav essays
I talked about my community in an internship I had last summer, cool topic but weaker essay
thats kinda unique
i have an album
i wrote about a sport i played for a long time and just connected a ton of experiences
its kinda generic but i think i connected stuff well
felt like its one of my tightest communities with the exception of one that i already wrote in my personal so i felt it was better playing it safe than going with something unique that wasnt genuine
Very fair
Tbh a community essay isnât make or break
i havent looked at my essay since i submitted, and i dont want to bc i know ill just point out the stuff that i shouldve changed but yeah hopefully its good enough and highlights who i am
nothing we can do about it anymore! just gonna pray that i get accepted on friday
and good luck to all!
Do you guys know when the results come out?
Jan 27th around 3 pm est
I tried being authentic on both. Weâll find out if tried means succeeded hopefully this Friday
This is not confirmed. Just very likely
Yes
What space?
Quora space
Wdym
50,000 members over 20+ countries
Over 800,000,000 views
Thatâs like saying creating this discord means nothing
The whole point is that I was struggling with my fatherâs cancer during covid isolation and created a way to connect with others that exploded (and some other cool stuff)
who said that
wtf
naa
online communities are way more meaningful than irl communities imo
perspectives from all over the world
people from all over the world
we're all a part of that community
and here we can have a measurable impact/contribution
that need not be very huge
but humble
I feel like itâs much easier to join/be apart of an online community, even though they might be equally meaningful i feel like real life communities might tell more about you
exactly itâs less authentic
Especially in a text chat platform
Like if i was an AO i would be less impressed with an online community essay
No offense to whoever created this server - I bet they put great deals of work into it - but they arenât the reason the server is flourishing
Well maybe that argument weak but you get my point
And also, anyone can be active in an online community, but not in real life
real life communities indicate conversation skills which humanizes you and also initiates networking which is v valuable
Exactly
yeah itâs also easy to lie abt urself online and way easier to talk to ppl
If u canât talk to people well or work with others, you likely arenât going to be able to âenhance your communityâ
But the prompt is open to whatever
I think supp questions are just to guide you
Yes def. I have a genetic diversity essay but for the community essay i used a different one
Also think about this
Community essays are used to gauge whether youâll actually use university resources (they obviously want you to)
Why would a college want a student who sits in their room and works on a subreddit
So based on this premise, writing about an online community is not a good idea
Feel free to disagree (I like disagreement)
100% agree
Ya i feel like writing an essay about online communities is lowkey giving discord mod in ur activities section
No offense, but it just gives antisocial vibes
My community essay was abt food
I like food
Who wants food
I am also allergic to certain foods
I wrote my essay abt sharing cultural foods
I can prolly carry out a lot of curry recipes if given the instruction sheet
Bro then why are you on discord
Join yes, create no
itâs been an insane amount of work for three years
My space has been really influential and I donât appreciate yâall bashing on it
Considering that you know nothing abt it and are on an online space rn
Im not a discord mod though I love yâall
I created and actively run an international space with 50,000 active members
Then it doesnât apply to you?? Lol
I wrote abt a family weâve known since I was 5 and how weâve grown in the sense that they had 2 more kids- we have dinner every week and travel together
our own little community
He was responding directly To me
Like this person said online communities are way more influential which in most cases isnât true
And also itâs my opinion
At the end of the day guys itâs writing and itâs different for every person
@reef dome I think itâs a rly good concept!
I like it personally
also thatâs why i didnât say âcreateâ i said âjoin/be apart ofâ thus it does not really apply to u
Nah I get what youâre saying but it started bc they were trashing a space I created
Online communities count
Esp given covid
2.5 of our 4 years were fucked due to covid
Its completely valid
me too
create is what we're discussing tho
it takes so much man
anyways
who cares
im too stressed abt uni rn
Real
Yeah a friend of mine just joined the Umich trombone section. I love band but Iâm not good enough to want to be in a college band
Also. To comment on online communities. I was a leader in one for many years and I can honestly say it greatly improved my life and leadership abilities. 10/10 times Iâd take an online community over an irl one
ye i started writing bc of covid
I'm a cs major i was honestly jus bored and it turned into one of my favorite and most meaningful hobbies
plus approx 10,000 views is something ig not much but đ¤ˇđžââď¸
Yeah but do you rlly know those 50000 ppl?
if u have a place in the community u dont need to
id say carly doest know EVERYONE in a2c but would u say thats invalid
And low key generic af
depends on the ec
cuz wut can u do thats necessarily unique irl
Bro
Ok
Have you made one
Games
Itâs a huge deal
everyone got nhs, key club, chairty etc
Yeah
You created a 3-year long active space with 50,000 members
if it ties into a major ec then ion see y not
Idk why yâall are bashing on me đ
No
It connects to everything
But size doesnât matter
Ya stop bashing bitches
And I didnât ask for yâall to ridicule my ec
It absolutely does
end of the day if it works it works i used some online shi too
He/she is just tryna say what they wrote
r u an ao?

Cool cool
cuz ur talking pretty definitively
Did you read the second pt of the supp question
I just wanna say @solemn elm is the same person who said last week UMich was coming out last Friday so he for sure ainât an AO
u too buddy donât think we forgot
Yes
yes
U both did
It went into personal stuff that I donât want to talk abt here
where does it say in person
and her place is as a leader
or physical
I didnât say 100%
^
You guys miss out on the physical stuff tho
What is with this discourse lol i said an online community is usually not what to write abt bc it can come off as antisocial, a multicultural online community you MADE with over 50k members obviously doesnât apply
Exactly
Bae I have no bad will against you
i already talked bout my community in africa/being african in my common app and my community service work was alr detailed in other parts of my app so something more personal made sense
I was done with it
Like idk abt you all, but communication mediums like Quora, discord, etc isnât the same as a club
Idk why they are getting involved
I also do a TON of other stuff
Thatâs ur opinion
And work three jobs
if ive alr talked abt it then y
Ok
My research club which has members all over PA has biweekly meetings on Zoom does that make it irrelevant?
@solemn elm
We all have a TON of dif stuff
thats cool but home boy over here trying to invalidate it like the criteria was must be physicall is weird af
Whatever we will see if they liked it on Friday
@solemn elm but Iâve already gotten into other unis using it
Iâm sure they did
And also i said it partly bc i bet a HUGE chunk of applicants talked abt a gaming community / social media so not the best way to differentiate urself. rileyâs situation is v different
I appreciate yâall tysmâĽď¸
Agreed with social media and gaming
Anything with a big impact is important imo
i mean some of the advice i got was dont just spam the same hook/topic across essays except to give more context. U-M heard a lot bout my physical communities so having an online presence/website posting my writing (the minor i talked bout in my why college) made sense imo
J depend
U know what bro u need to rlly shut up
xD
Like I donât think u realize how rude u come across
You guys decided to write abt it
U can disagree and not say dumb things like âonline isnât the sameâ
What did u write abt
Bc u clearly have a whole Shakespeare essay here
u seem to be an auto admit idk so would like to know wut makes u so perfect
So tell us what u wrote abt
Yâall why donât you say âi told you soâ after decisions come out instead of argue abt it now bc then youâll look dumb asf if u get rejected
u talk like u r gang
Bc I am bud
Nah I very well could
Iâm gang
wait when will umich ea come out?
Prolly Friday
cuz it likely isnt the reason any of us would or wouldnt get in
ok cool
đ
only thing for me is the oos cs but ig i hv legacy so idk
Thatâs fucked
otherwise i think im in a good spot
also id be too happy to gaf bout this convo
Then why is it okay for u to say someoneâs community doesnât count?
I never said that
eq on 0
u literally have been insinuating it the whole time my g
Insinuating it isnât as good as a physical community
Insinuating isnât the same thing as explicitly stating it
aint even that it isnt as good pre much saying whole essay dont count cuz its online
lol
U just admitting ur insinuating it lol
does my ao read my ross application when they read my application or just the general umich
wut this mean đ?
u aint even kno wut the essay was on or the rest of the app "its generic"
I j said itâs sus
pretty sure ross comes out after so probs not at the same time
idk tho
I bet with COVID there has been a rise in online communities
Itâs not so rare anymore
no i know ross comes out after but do they read my specific school application when reading my umich application
so how would it be perceived as anti social if it started during a time that we literally couldnt go outside
I deadass bet I can find several DECA, Chess, etc servers on Discord or Quora or Reddit
true but this was a bit more specific for them and u dk how it ties into their ecs, major or anth it most likely was more than jus a server
not sure abt that ngl
cause if they do id be so happy my ross current event was so so so good
fair enough
wait where did they say club tho?
the supp prompt was community
They didnât
i would argue strongly that if you're creating an online community
itâs very easy to equate a club to a community
that is straight up a community
a club is very likely a community
but a community is not always a club!
It is
but looking at the prompt they pretty much insinuated that almost anth counts
Everyone belongs to many different communities and/or groups defined by (among other things) shared geography, religion, ethnicity, income, cuisine, interest, race, ideology, or intellectual heritage. Choose one of the communities to which you belong, and describe that community and your place within it.
like i dont see how that implies that there is any hard limit on what to write aboout
was debating writing bout where i was from lmfao
online communities are obviously communities and they fit the prompt but theyâre just trite is all. like i bet thousands of applicants describe a discord community, and just pale in comparison to essays abt unique real-life communities; if an online community essay is good, it should be very unique and personal to you. and personally i like to keep my real life identity and digital identity completely separate
You could deadass write about being in a petting zoo and having the animals be ur community lol
yeah, you could
personally mine wasnt discord/reddit/ig
if that has value to you
then yes.
clearly the online community has value to the person who wrote about it (especially considering that they CREATED the community) and i dont think that it being an online community detracts from the meaning
its better than writing about something that they do not genuinely value as much
from the wording i think they care more about ur impact/commitment to ur passions then the actual nature of the community
like physical vs online
in person?
Why?
bc im not an anti social fuk
both have their benefits
in person connections are obviously better
but online allows you to network with people who you otherwise wouldnt be able to
ion get it
in person
if we're talking purely about meeting ppl then yes
expressions matter alot
but we're ignoring the nature of the essay which is what we were talking bout
rather see someone laugh over a 'lol'
which is what u acc did not that i can talk to another human being
I j think whenever Iâm on this Discord, itâs very much possible that I will never meet you guys in-person.
Whereas when I meet someone new off the street, I will never see an online profile image behind them.
that's fair, but i wouldnt say its completely worthless
u see
I understand what youre saying
but idk how that applies to this essay
or how an online community is invalid
^^
like id argue that
while its very possible that you would never meet an online friend in person
online communities allow ppl to hide more easily
like i have multiple programs that I was a part of but they dont hv much to do with my goals or anth and were maybe a week as opposed to a community ive been apart of and active in for almost 3 years which has to do with my ecs, minor and y i chose a certain college
but i would argue that
the first is in person the other was online
but varying degrees of impact imo
was that the number?
ye
that's making an impact on A LOT of people
so yeah, while its missing the element
the reach that it has
is very on par with a large in person club, if not even more
id also say that opportunities are not equal lmfao and not everyone has the chance/time to build a meaningful community
at least over time
they dont care about the amount of peopl
they care about the impact
impact on more ppl = greater overall impact
It depends
not true, and again they dont care about net impcat
its quality > quantity
what did you do not how many people did you do it to
^
doesnt umich waitlist everyone cs oos rd
Did you mentor someone into success or out of depression? or did you just moderate and create a server like A2C,
latter impacts more but is a very small indiv impact
Today shitpost Wednesday
former imacts one person but is a huge impact
Itâs hard to get the word out when you have that many ppl
community implies a certain number of ppl lmao
basically for me - its a mix
we added that into discord?
if I can have an irl one with someone, Ill go for irl
then scale it to 10 people
if its not possible for an irl one - then Ill go with online
Your community can be 5 ppl lol
Donât see why not right
theres sm context that literally can not be accounted for in this argument lmfao
this
s1ns the context does not matter
If itâs allowed on Reddit then should here too
i agree quality matters but whos to say the quality is automatically shit because its online
thats not what i said
so what the community was or what they did does not matter
aiit
i said large amount of people is not preferred over small amt big impact
holy shit your illiterate
The only context we were given was that it was a 50k Quora site lol
I literally said what you did matters more than how many people you affect
Small vs big doesnât matter imo
and i said the context of what u did inside ur mf application is what they r probably looking for
yeah this is my point
online allows you to meet people who you otherwise wouldnt be able to, but if irl is possible, obviously irl
50k quora site đ that itself sounds bad enough
"possible" it always is, people j threw out all their social skills
so i can just like
travel across the world
and talk to them?
you don't need to? how about you talk to the people next door?
or at school?
like normal people do?
you're missing my point
you dont need to be best friends with the 40yo incel online
the people who you have a means of interacting irl, obviously
@dusk schooner where were you when I needed backup lol
eating lunch prob
but there are a lot of people out there who share your interests and such?
this is brain ded
they exist irl, talk to them dont be an incel
maybe cuz you found someone online who is an awesome as fuck friend but sadly lives across the world from you
see what I mean now?

^^
you're connections with people irl always holds more value because you interact even when you dot want to
xD
yeah but you don't know them truly
you know a part of them, but not all
whole fucking point was the question did not implyany hard limits therefore content> whether or not u kissed them on the lips or texted them lmfao
Exactly
go back to your psych ward
me and my online friend who are meeting up in a few months and have known each other for 3 years be like: đ
Wow
im not saying that online interactions are more important
im saying that in tandem with irl interactions they are also important
im not tryn get banned again : |
Are you guys rlly going to have a discord kitten as your wife tho?
also, if you're interacting even tho you dont want to, im not sure if thats a healthy relationship...
online interactions imo are insanely meaningless, people I was "close as hell with" and "related to more than my irl friends" dropped them the moment i came back to irl school
online interactions aren't valuable
they hold no bond
do you know what that means
Not as strong at least
idk how you got this from me saying that online interactions hold value
thats like running into them at the grocery store
or at school
or when you're on a run
no offence - but maybe people irl are just forced to be with you and the online ones had an option đ
you dont do that on discord
and u can't read
"i dropped them"
my question is how meaning of the interaction has anth to do with the prompt
i doubt anyone wrote bout an egirl
irl ppl aren't forced idk what 1800s school you go to
you could just as easily cut them off irl too
im not hte one complaining
đ¤ thats why I got a 23 in my ACT reading SAT 1510 FTW!
you bypassed hte point
i cut them off bc the irl friendships were much more real
online wasnt
no real bond
Gonna have to agree with @solemn elm on this one
im not saying that you're complaining about it; im saying thats your own flaw
What a surprise lol
flaw?
i dropped for a reason
I am gonna go and watch youtube while laughing at this menace
if you cut other people off, too bad
now who tf
anyway, this doesnt matter
too bad????????
Faziz buddy let me sniff your tuna
How abt we all just stop arguing
both of the sides, defending and arguing, are hilarious to see đ
i did it for a reason
đż
Not a discord wife but someone taht I have been talking for 3 years on iMessage and insta
This is getting insane
Oml
ive been asking myself this for a while
its a dude
Fr
Bruh
Then he should come dominate me
ngl its a very simple discussion jus arguing with brick walls is exhausting
im straight
đ
đ¤¨
Guys I donât think this is college anymore đđđ
no offence but its kinda funny to see you continue arguing when you know its bricks
not my fault g
I agree with you yet its phunny đż
So howâs waiting for BostonU
nah bro is invested into this
he's only agreeing w u to save face
(no hate, Im just too bored and find everything entertaining at this point)
itâs horrible
when does it release?
2 weeks prolly
Me rn waiting for neu
i completely agree w u tho @fierce river thats why i instigated this
ahh gl man
ty bro
So
lmfaooo
to me its not a hard concept to understand so idk
like I disagreed with u but after one sentence im like - ok cool diff opinions
honestly, ed2 should just release on feb 14
but then these other kids poped in
You guys think a 50K Quora page is a community?
break applicants hearts
its a dude
get it?
you've been texting a dude for 3yrs lookin to smash
i do
@dusk schooner I want your word on this.
for me my entertainment is doubling down on teh most absurd take
no what the fuck
its quora
remember the kanye kissing kanye post on a2c
yea
thats what this reminds me of
Bro not a dude
I mean who knows
Even if it dude, he can get it too
Bro touch grass
thats like saying your ebay store is a community
no
I do prob more than u đ¤Ż
i like debating but shi wasnt gettin nowhere
đż I am still munching
Yeah bro let me sniff your tuna ok?
what
Ayo
bro @crude comet chill đđ
my 330 subs are a community, Im a UtUbE iNfLuEnCeR

Roll tide

Caleb love should of went to nba draft year
Brandon Miller is HIM
i didnt know uva was that good lmfao
Why tf is Armando Baycock still there

always thought that they were just a football powerhouse
w that being said i dont follow college basketball much
idgaf till march madness lmfao
Yeah
idgaf in march madness lmfao
Uva hasnât won a real game yet
Any idea what time decisions are coming?
The acc is ass
honestly thought va sports jus ass at the college lvl
i couldve sworn they had a good team
i forgot what it was tho
i think it was basketball
bc i dont recognize uva football
football both uva and vt are ass
basketball we're pretty decent across the board i think
Oh yeah bud can I sniff your skibidibop first?
vcu, u of richmond, vt and uva r all solid but like ion think theyre like semi finals good yk
rd?
not rd
Nvm I was wrong
we had tons of 5's on the ap exam who barely made c's on tests đ its a teacher thing for me
which makes it so unfair
but cant do anything now
ye same wit stat and chem for me
(from subredddit)
id be happy with the MidWestern Package, ngl
especially since I only applied to two of em. UIUC and Mich
i did uiuc mich and uw madison
mad asl cuz i didnt apply to uiuc ea
so like
rejection
ah, ok. My CC told me to apply undeclared for second
bc my second, after business would have been engineering. Couldnt get in second
i just want to make sure I have the options, yk?
they have a great Co-op, business, and engineering program. And a beautiful campus
i heard transport in and out illinois is difficult and dorms are eh
Dorms are eh, but thats true for all state schools. My bro is at UMD. Apparently there are always people driving up to Chicago, and its easy to hitch a ride
so easy to transport around, OHare has flights everywheere
fair enough
UIUC isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I visited, and rather enjoyed it
if i get in, ill go back again, explore more
the food tho... if ur a foodie, fuck Mich, go to UIUC. Literally like 10 resturants as each dining hall, so much variety, and all dorms are above dining halls
if it was bout food id prolly go to va tech
for me i love mich cuz 1. football 2. moms an alumni so shes kinda put it in my head since i started thinkin bout college
people shit on VT so much tho
food at umich goes hard
might just be my elitist school thio, idk
u in va?
i feel yah. FOOTBALL
MD. Ppl love shitting on virginia tech tho
spent most my life outside US so ion even know shi bout american football jus love mich
um in Va obv the vibe is diff
idk ive been to vt for a program and honestly its rly not a bad school you could most definitely do worse yk
every state sees different schools differently
ye
i only rly did umd for cs
was born in md tho
I was born in London lol
lived in MD most of my life
i am still gonna apply to some UK schools. LEeds, Birmingham, etc.
y they shit on vt? (lowkey a safety for me but like a rly good one)
i lived in Nigeria most my life which uses the cambridge curriculum
idk. I guess bc a lot of stupid people from out school go? idk
not rly doing any uk schools cuz like f that
Umich is my literal baby
but my friend got into imperial and other one has a conditional for cambride
Pls accept
fair enough lmfao
Thank you đ
well..... this discord server is both the only thing supporting my mental health, but also stabbing knives into my heart lol
I know nothing I say will change shit about acceptances
but shit will fuck me over
and we just have to wait 2 days
feel ya there
harvard REA be like
I can't manage school anymore
I have reading for enlgihs tmrw.... my english teacher is my college counselor. I might just not show up lol
i like a2c cuz most ppl r cool and ive learned a lot
but at same time seeing some ppls stats/ecs makes it feel like i got no chance lmfao
yeahhhhh
the thing is, i fucked myself last year. Got a mid GPA. Didn't study enough for the ACT...
gotta love the neverending feeling of inadiquesy
i cant spell
FUCK
mm moving from intl fucked my gpa and mmy sat is just about good enough for top schools i guess
but couldve done better fs
I have a 32 ACT. I could have taken it just one more time... Taken one more practise...
it mnever ends
yeah, true
im just so worried
and I took a massive gamble on my main essay
I wrote it about two childhood friends who went down a dark path, drugs, etc. until they tried to kill each other, and then talked about how thats helped me do community service, help my community, etc.
im just hopind it will work
idk if i massively fucked up or no
It sounds interesting tho
I wrote a beautfiul supplemental for one of the U mich supplemental essays
I think it was. I hope it was good enough!
my essays werent like outside the box but they were good imo
Only thing is trigger warning
But you shouldnât need to always provide that
Theyâre grown adults
It sounds like a good essay imo!
1500 i didnt take the reading srsly enough ngl but its fine 770 math is good enough
yeah.... i fucked my math up
holy , u wanna trade i acc wanna read that if u dont mind
my stats are good but my ECs are ass
I centered my entire app around cxommunity
my community was interesting (it was online which is a deal breaker apparently)
My advisor in 9th grade got into Yale with a 1600... 1600, first try, like 15 APs...
damn
I got 1550 and 34
i got a 35
Couldâve gotten a 35 if I got a 31 on science smh my head
could've done better but i kept procrastinating studying
started with a 29 on science
got math and science to 34, english and reading stayed at 35
i had 28 on English lmaoo
damn
noice Big D!
my fault gang
wish i took act low key heard its easier
my EFC is 30k for no god damn reason umich would love my money
by definition, no
lol np
im not sure i had act 34 and sat 1580
my efc is 18
they're both standardized tests
act is too fast for me
some aspects of them might appeal to different people
I think the ACT is harder
but thats just me
but neither is easier or harder
prob different for everyone
act is stupid
the only difference might be preference in testing style
sat better
yep this
we just had to take act in our school
never taken the sat but they wouldn't be standardized tests if one was more difficult than the other
i think it depends on the person tho
that's what i said ^^^^^
same but differentish
i jus came back so reading up-down đ
lol all good
so true fr
My dads favorite joke. What do all Umich and Michigan state students have in common. They all applied to Umich
