umich

oblique vortex

idle coral
#

i dont live in georgia how was i supposed to know they didn’t get snow

slate oar
#

17k is literally in state tuition

oblique vortex
#

yeah lmao

slate oar
#

also considered that nyu literally has ed1 and ed2

fickle cloak
slate oar
#

which lowers the quality of the student body

high nebula
#

deep south

slate oar
#

and like

#

schools that game rankings are generally just not good

#

ie making the app super short to get 100k+ apps

fickle cloak
#

all depends on if i get in and get aid

turbid burrow

high nebula
slate oar

turbid burrow
#

whats yall #1

slate oar

turbid burrow

turbid burrow

slate oar
idle coral
slate oar

turbid burrow
high nebula
#

new york 😭

idle coral
#

maybe uf and dartmouth saw me and they were like you’re too good we’re gonna yield protection even though we’ve never ever done that cause they know i’m mit and upenn bound

#

yeah midlo is getting good

oblique vortex
turbid burrow
#

#

lmao

idle coral
oblique vortex
#

so its yield protection confirmed

turbid burrow
#

grades too low, ecs, essays like

#

lmk

#

please

idle coral
#

i know it wasn’t my ecs or essays so what was it please.

high nebula
#

its basically always either ecs or essays

#

most a2cers dont have to stress over their grades not being good enough

turbid burrow
#

i mean for me i got hella worried cuz i moved from intl so my gpa and class rank were bad (3.8 uw 3.9 w cuz no hons/ap where im from)

#

so i thought colleges saw it and said ye bro aint nun

thorn leaf
#

3.8 uw is not bad 😦

idle coral
#

i could believe if it was my gpa but i explained why it’s low 🙁 parents and school ignoring my learning disabilities but even then i still have a 5.0

turbid burrow
idle coral
#

i have a 3.6 almost 3.7 uw 😭

turbid burrow
#

class rank

#

i tried spamming aps (got 7) but only jr year counts

high nebula
turbid burrow
#

cuz they dont update gpa till end of year

idle coral
#

yeah but i tried explaining it to them but i guess that’s out of my hands

random minnow
high nebula
#

for them its like

turbid burrow
high nebula
#

if you cant handle it in hs, you wont in college

#

grades are king after all

idle coral
#

my weighted isn’t lacking at all or rigor 14 aps all honors 5.0 weighted but it’s just my uw that isn’t the best

turbid burrow
#

got this from a NOrthwestern ao

#

so ig

#

might not be that

idle coral
#

3.6 almost 3.7

random minnow
#

But 14 APs is a lot theh May account for course rigor

#

Do you have your class rank

#

If your gpa is high for your class don’t worry too much

idle coral
random minnow
#

That’ll help your application I think

#

ECs?

high nebula
random minnow
high nebula
#

ASA

idle coral
# random minnow ECs?

2 years of cancer research ab to be published, 12k fundraised for a cancer org, 10k fundraiser for another cancer org, a sport, internship with my ccs center for financial training, board for a club, active in another club, and i compete with fbla, oh and very active in the network for teaching entrepreneurship

random minnow
oblique vortex
#

so not ecs fs

random minnow
idle coral
#

double major bio and business

random minnow
#

I think you have a good chance considering your ECs, the cancer research one especially

idle coral
#

my spike was healthcare inequality

random minnow
#

And since it aligns with your major it’s good

idle coral
#

and how i’ve lost family to the expense of cancer treatment

random minnow
#

Did you write a good essay do you think?

high nebula
#

youll def get something rd

idle coral
#

yeah definitely i would say my essays were my strongest part of my application

idle coral
high nebula
#

im actually feeling insecure now lmfao

#

eeeee

oblique vortex
#

wait you didnt get anything?! yeah youll def get something rd

high nebula
#

he got mich i think

idle coral
#

i hsve 1k+ community service hours and tons of certifications so schools that let me submit my resume saw that

#

yeah umich iu and full ride osu

oblique vortex
#

umich business?

idle coral
#

well im waiting on ross but i applied

#

i think i had a rlly strong current event essay

#

i spoke about lack of primary physicians in my state and had a rlly in detail way fo addressing it

random minnow
high nebula
oblique vortex
#

I think you have a really strong chance of getting accepted then lol

random minnow
#

Ngl Idrc if I don’t get accepted, I just wish I could know now so I can plan ahead

high nebula
#

oblique vortex
#

random minnow
idle coral
high nebula
#

junior year is crazy

random minnow
#

And right now I can’t do anything without knowing which ones I got into

oblique vortex
#

oh like applying internationally

random minnow
#

Yea I applied 1 school in Qatar and 3 in the Us in completely different states and 2 safeties

idle coral
#

random minnow
#

UMich, Berkeley , UC Davis, and a state school and the school for the state next to mine

#

And Weill Cornell Qatar

idle coral
#

random minnow
#

I’m trying to biomedical engineering and pre med track, Cornell would be my ideal option but it’s so selective

high nebula
#

bme + premed is rough 😭

idle coral

random minnow

random minnow
random minnow
idle coral

random minnow

I’m a senior 😭😭😭

high nebula
#

thorn leaf

idle coral

high nebula
#

nah i just changed my entire role lol

idle coral
#

high nebula
#

im built like that 🥶

#

welcome to the big boyperson club @random minnow

random minnow
#

🥶🥶🥶

#

Lol

#

So I actually have a real question now

#

Should you send the LOCI at any time or after deferral?

idle coral
#

the answer is yes

#

oh

random minnow
#

Ok

high nebula
idle coral
#

after

random minnow
high nebula
#

if u havent yet, do it now

#

like

#

right now

#

its late af

random minnow
#

I applied regular decision

high nebula
#

oh

#

then there is no loci

random minnow
#

Oh ok

#

What did you apply for? RD?

high nebula
#

ea

#

i already got in

random minnow
#

Nice

high nebula
#

😄

idle coral
#

a school i applied to comes out thursday and apparently they sent you socks like less than a week after they accept you i rlly hope i get in for the socks

random minnow
idle coral
#

it was a free application so i want socks

high nebula
#

which school lol

idle coral
#

basically free socks with long shipping

#

whitman

random minnow
#

Lol

high nebula
idle coral
#

same thing

random minnow
high nebula
#

xd

idle coral
#

do you guys like radiohead

random minnow
#

What’s Radiohead ?

high nebula
#

x2

random minnow
idle coral
#

a band

random minnow
#

Oh cool

high nebula
random minnow
high nebula
#

both

random minnow
#

Every ethnic Arab / Muslim parents I know either force their kid to be doctor, lawyer, or engineer no exceptions ❌❌🙅🙅😵😵

high nebula
#

lol yeah

#

i like business though

random minnow
#

So basically u have 3 options

random minnow
#

Is it easy to change colleges once you’re admitted? Like to the business school?

high nebula
#

yeah its easier to transfer then it is to apply freshman

random minnow
#

That’s good

high nebula
#

yeah ig but im not interested in the business school type business

random minnow
#

Hmm what you could do is biological sciences and just start your own business, you don’t really need a business degree necessarily

#

Lots of CEOs have engineering degrees and no actual business degree

high nebula
#

yeah

random minnow
#

Most Common degree for CEOs is actually engineering iirc

#

Do you want to do pre-med as well?

high nebula
#

yeah most likeyl

high flax
#

hey dudes

random minnow
#

Hello

high flax
#

if I apply to dearborn/flint, can I get multiple offers from umich?

#

or is only 1 campus allowed to pick me

#

like NYU

random minnow
#

Like if you applied to both?

high flax
#

yeah

#

cuz i dont wanna apply to flint and then not get a chance at going to ann arbor

high nebula
#

yeah youll get both

random minnow
#

I think they’re separate schools so you could apply to both separately , but don’t take my word for it. Also you realize the different campuses are vastly different

high flax
#

i know....

#

bruh

#

im just getting an email to share my info with them or something

high nebula
#

go for it

high flax
#

😛

random minnow
#

Do research into flint and Dearborn don’t just go off of the name if that makes sense

river vessel
#

You can’t drink the water in flint

high nebula
#

yeah i'd personally avoid ito

random minnow
random minnow
# high flax 😛

It might not even be worth it cost wise to go to flint if you don’t get into Ann Arbor, just do research into it.

oblique vortex
#

they fixed the pipes?

random minnow
random minnow
#

I have extended family there

oblique vortex
#

nice

random minnow
#

But most people don’t drink it

#

Just because of the stigma

idle coral
random minnow
#

And incredibly small amounts of residual lead

idle coral
#

lead

idle coral
#

well apparently they said they planned to finish by september 2022 do maybe

random minnow
#

It’s probably safe to drink, but I personally wouldn’t risk it

#

Lots of other stuff has lead in it tho, it’s not scary unless you have repeated and large amounts of exposure, such as in drinking water

idle coral
#

and as long as youre not a toddler

random minnow
#

Fishing weights, paint on older houses and cars, old unleaded gasoline and aviation fuel, bullet and gun residue, etc

outer hornet
#

3.86UW but I explained in additional info 😀

#

So hopefully not too bad

random minnow
#

Especially if your weighted is good and you have good ECs and essay

idle coral
outer hornet
#

yeah wish it was higher tho cuz I went test optional to most schools except for a few but I’m proud of my ECs and essays

#

weighted it’s like 4.52 or 4.55 I think

random minnow
#

Nice

thorn leaf
#

that's crazy good

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

haughty pawn
#

what was the "missing" component?

nocturne crater
#

No one in Hong Kong (where I’m from) does all 3 so I think it’s meant to be / instead of ;

#

But I did include my IGCSE scores in my common app test score section

#

So idk what they’re on

#

Plus IGCSE is the international version of the o levels so they’re the same thing basically

storm jewel
#

they changed it this year

#

direct admit for cs

harsh marlin
#

so ross please for the love of god

storm jewel
#

oh i thought u wanted to switch into cs like u wanted at berkeley

harsh marlin
#

but then they changed it for those applying in 2024

#

so that freshman could apply directly

storm jewel
#

ohh interesting

harsh marlin
#

so overall everything about it is fucked

storm jewel
#

yea...

#

welp u got in tho

harsh marlin
#

honestly berkeley is such a horribly managed school

#

the admins should be fucking fired

storm jewel
#

💀

#

fr like why havent they accepted me yet

deep drum
#

guys is it suggested to give an explanation for my below average grades in my freshman year in my loci

reef dome
#

But no don’t do that on a loci

lone spade
#

any IB student who already got accepted? if you already got then what was your predicted?

dawn mason
dawn mason
#

i think straight up rejected from both

reef dome
#

YEESH

dawn mason
#

oos international tho so that could play a part

#

oh yeah and i think his dumbass applied cs as alternative 💀 but not 100% sure

lone spade
#

whats Ross

#

like ross university school of medicine?

dawn mason
#

school of business

lone spade
#

who tf laughed at my question 💀

#

man I just didnt know the university

reef dome
#

😭 not 😂

#

But ross is kinda what Michigan is known for

thin cove
#

since mich is known for CS so much as well

reef dome
#

Why fight with me always 😿

thin cove
#

😁 😁

#

do yk when deferrals come out riley?

vague beacon
#

mich engineering in terms of public schools is close to on par with GT

thin cove
#

yeahh

slate oar
#

Deferrals come out with rd

#

It was 3/25 Last year I think

thin cove
#

i see

#

thankss

slate oar
#

It’s only a small subset of umich

#

Like

#

Engineering and lsa are very dominant

#

Majors for Pre law and pre med in lsa are very good

reef dome
#

Ross is a main thing they’re known for

#

Ofc there are other main things

#

Like engineering and law and BME

reef dome
thin cove
#

u cant have many main stuff

slate oar
#

LOL

thin cove
#

that dilutes the meaning of the word main

#

😭😭😭😭

reef dome
#

You know what I meant

#

Ross is one of their top programs that a lot of people know abt

#

Literally just that chill out

thin cove
#

UM is a google feeder, engineeriung is mad dom

slate oar
#

Right

#

And engineering is a larger school than ross for sure

thin cove
#

🙂

reef dome
#

Again, I literally don’t know why y’all are arguing

slate oar
#

Also ross students generally don’t get the intellectual respect

reef dome
#

Ik why he is but not you

slate oar
#

If you wanna talk academically

reef dome
thin cove
cerulean wagon
#

Wtf is actually going on

slate oar
#

Cause it is widely known to be easier

thin cove
#

ro-(a)ss

slate oar
#

Guys there is nothing wrong with like some debate about a school

thin cove
#

😭😭

reef dome
slate oar
#

A gentle disagreement is not like. Hostility

thin cove
#

im just annoying riley

slate oar
#

This sub literally exists to discuss umich

#

We are doing that

thin cove
#

the tone may not be

#

that clear

reef dome
thin cove
#

but there is no hostility in his tone

reef dome
#

I can tell when they’re just trying to annoy me lmao

#

Im gonna end this convo

#

YALL r free to converse

slate oar
#

Bro relax 💀

thin cove
slate oar
#

No one is forcing you to be on here

#

Some of us like discussion and exchanging ideas

#

Idk him no

#

But discussions with strangers can be fun

high nebula
#

I’m ngl I got in ea to Michigan and have never heard of “Ross” until reading this conversation

#

must not exist tbh

thin cove
#

i knew about ross but i never knew mich for ross

slate oar
#

Ross is send as a very frat bro-y conservative school of umich

thin cove
#

riley loves ross a lot, hence the protectiveness dw

cerulean wagon
#

I knew absolutely nothing about Michigan other than that it had good cs

#

Until the day that I applied

slate oar
#

Definitely not everyone’s appeal

cerulean wagon
#

Don't tell them I said that

thin cove
high nebula
slate oar
#

Especially cause umich generally is known to be a left leaning school with a strong student activism presence

high nebula
#

omg wait the lsa honors comes out today

thin cove
#

honours is secondary

high nebula
#

oops my b

#

u got this

slate oar
#

Trust

thin cove
slate oar
#

Are you oos

thin cove
#

but i sent in another loci after that

#

lol

thin cove
slate oar
#

If you’re oos don’t even bother like umich is such a rip off 💀💀

#

Dawg

#

Lol

#

If you have gtech go for that

thin cove
#

im not "looking forward" to it dw

thin cove
slate oar
#

Don’t drop 72k on umich

thin cove
#

deferred

slate oar
#

Oh

#

💀💀💀

#

OH

#

man

thin cove
#

GT is my dream

slate oar
#

😭

#

That’s vile…

thin cove
#

i have UNC as of now

#

thats it

slate oar
#

it’s ok I got deferred from Harvard I know how it feels

#

And scrambling to do more apps 😭

thin cove
slate oar
#

If umich deferred me I’d be so screwed rn

#

LOL

#

feelin lucky

#

Very very lucky

high nebula
#

they prioritize in state I’m sure

thin cove
slate oar
high nebula
#

deferred basically means they didn’t read ur application yet

slate oar
#

But no one has a guarantee

#

I mean I haven’t seen any 1550+ deferred in state

slate oar
#

But like

thin cove
#

for GT

#

no

slate oar
#

It’s not like it’s a hard rule

high nebula
#

yeah but u prob would have been accepted or rejected if in state

slate oar
#

So I wasn’t sure

high nebula
#

And not postponed

slate oar
#

No

thin cove
#

GT didnt mass defer this year

slate oar
#

In state like everyone is deferred

high nebula
#

oh

#

oop

slate oar
#

It’s kind of notorious

#

I mean if u have the stats no

#

But most in state kids are rocking like test optional or 1400s and feel entitled to umich😭

#

So when they get deferred they get really upset

#

Umich entitlement is so prevalent in Michigan

thin cove
#

while us intl/oos already accepted our fate

slate oar
#

Oos hard lol

high nebula
slate oar
#

Only oos friend admits ik had 1550 and 1600

high nebula
#

lmao

#

No FA basically

#

for public

thin cove
#

im on the fence

slate oar
#

Nah cause

#

If I didn’t get umich

thin cove
#

im oos with intl stats

#

gets difficult to read my app

high nebula
#

ah

slate oar
#

I’d be going into mit / ivy day with

#

Zero acceptances

#

💀💀💀💀💀

#

That would’ve been so awkward

thin cove
#

none of them good enough

#

honestly some of my deferrals shocked me, but it was the same for everyone this year

slate oar
#

Nah cause ivy day is gonna be so humbling

#

One harv deferral crushed me💀

thin cove
slate oar
#

And it’s funny bc

thin cove
#

ED

#

sux

slate oar
#

I never react

#

My umich vid is blank face

thin cove
slate oar
#

While my friends on VC were like yelling

#

Yeah why not

#

It’s funny

#

Then I remembered I was recording

#

So I was like “yayyy” 💀

#

but I just stared at the screen and processed for a sec

#

honours is a smaller community

#

so i’d guess it helps with making closer friends

slate oar
#

honors is in a building called south quad

carmine lagoon
#

that’s the main draw for me

slate oar
#

To be fair it’s very very nice

#

And like near the center of campus

#

I always hang out in there

#

W my umich Friends

funny story for today:
context: juniors are starting their college process (mainly working on gpa, sat, ecs, and start thinking about colleges)
a junior kept bugging me about colleges and we started arguing because he thought umich ross wasn't a good school because "he never heard of it", and as a ross admit myself i could not let that slide so we argued for a good chunk of the period, and the most ironic part was that he actually wants to study business himself but he doesn't know anything other than wharton, cornell (he didn't even know the business school name), and stern

#

i just wanted to share this cursed story 😭

dim pumice
#

classic prestige whore

ornate moat
#

LOL

#

even if he is a prestige whore, i feel like ross is still very prestige whorey

#

sigh i guess he'll learn the hard way when he finally talks to his college counselor

fickle cloak
#

Meanwhile I just got a 47% on my unit 2 ap physics test and bro thinks ross isn’t a good school

#

Bro needs to be humbled

ornate moat
#

hes so confident that he'll get into stern too because he has a legacy there

#

im not sure how much nyu factors that in but ik for a fact hes not just gonna get into stern with only good grades and high sat

fickle cloak
#

I don’t think nyu considers legacy unless ur a important one

fickle cloak
#

My grades is now a 84

#

Gonna ask for a retake lol

ornate moat
#

it sucks so much that our school gives a humongous curve to every single ap physics test

fickle cloak
#

Nah our teacher doesn’t bc he doesn’t believe in curves

#

I’m like huh

ornate moat
#

LOL our school literally has the entire department give the curve because our school knows how fucked up it is 😭

fickle cloak
#

Good thing LSA won’t require physics

ornate moat
#

good physics sucks

fickle cloak
#

With a passion

ornate moat
#

i love math, but the moment math because conceptual is when i hate it

fickle cloak
#

Like math normal yes, real life solutions 🤮

ornate moat
#

TRUE

#

i just find math really interesting

#

until it comes to actually applying it to real life

fickle cloak
#

It’s like we’re not doing math anymore

ornate moat
#

i thought about getting a math phd for research, but then i realized i probably wont be able to commit that long

fickle cloak
#

More like industrial design

ornate moat
#

nor be smart enough to go for one

fickle cloak
#

What do math majors do with their degree?

high nebula

cough quants cough

fickle cloak

And the only reason I’m happy with a 47% of on a 63 question test is because I guess on not 1 not 2 but all 63 questions

But u can do quant ig work in business, tech, architecture whatever needs math (everything) there’s a place for u
