[lyric crane]

@ancient dune @rigid osprey y’all feel like giving me a chance me rq

Ea season has been beyond humbling

[sonic spruce]

lol fr but then ill prob get rejected 😭

[rigid osprey]

ye hmu

sorry for late

ill ask 4 one too after lmao

[sonic spruce]

uva looking so nice but tutirion isnt good

[lyric crane]

Aiit I’ll dm in a sec

[sonic spruce]

i heard its 75k oos

[lyric crane]

Damn

[rigid osprey]

i might have to dm u first it i have it off

[ancient dune]

they give good aid

dw

[sonic spruce]

umm idk if i qualify

[ancient dune]

uva meets full need

[sonic spruce]

i applied but

[ancient dune]

wdym

[sonic spruce]

i dont think im getting

anything

[ancient dune]

whats ur efc

[sonic spruce]

whats efc sorry im stupid

[rigid osprey]

a lot of schools say this but what does it mean

[ancient dune]

fafsa

[sonic spruce]

ohhh what about it

[rigid osprey]

do they j pay up tuition to your efc

[ancient dune]

family contribution

[ancient dune]

if its above 75k u wont get aid

[rigid osprey]

go to ur student aid report

[ancient dune]

it means they will cover everything that ur efc doesnt

in financial aid

[rigid osprey]

oki well good thing i dont live oos

[ancient dune]

meaning if you got 21k

efc

ull pay 21k

[sonic spruce]

like famil salary?

[rigid osprey]

no its different

[ancient dune]

did you fill out the fafsa?

[sonic spruce]

yes

[rigid osprey]

your efc is the expected amount your family should pay based off salary, taxes, etc

[sonic spruce]

what part is this in

[rigid osprey]

student aid report

[sonic spruce]

lemme check

[ancient dune]

^

[sonic spruce]

its roughly 46

what does this mean

[ancient dune]

u pay 46k/yr

[sonic spruce]

really that simple

[ancient dune]

yes

[sonic spruce]

also so that means i dont have to pay 80k for ivies if i get in by any chance

[ancient dune]

youll still get some aid from uva

[ancient dune]

yes

likely

[sonic spruce]

danngng nice but i prob wont get in to any ivies

[rigid osprey]

if your efc is 46k you probably will end up paying 20k maybe even less for ivies

[sonic spruce]

frrr

thats good

wait thats less than umd in state

[rigid osprey]

yeah they have really good financial aid

the hardest part is to get in lmao

[sonic spruce]

Fr but isn’t umd better than uva tho for cs

[rigid osprey]

probably

[sonic spruce]

R u in state

Uva

[lyric crane]

ye

[spice ravine]

4.3 🥲

crap

i applied for ea

if i dont get rejected

can i submit a student aid?

(can int apply for student aid?)

if no then i wont

[sonic spruce]

dang gl

[lyric crane]

Since uva is a public school I doubt. For aid I’d bet on private schools but I’d still check tbh

[spice ravine]

alr thanks

[sonic spruce]

Hoping for acceptance

[spice ravine]

fr

5 more days

[ancient dune]

until acceptance

[spice ravine]

: D

hehe

[ancient dune]

i believe in u bro

uva best college

[spice ravine]

fr

[celest prawn]

is the process to transfer between UVA colleges difficult?

[mild horizon]

should i send my mid-year transcript to uva

even though they havent requested it

[lyric crane]

i dont think theyll consider it if they didnt ask lmao

[mild horizon]

makes sense lol

[potent reef]

they don’t have time to look at it for ea

[lyric crane]

do they request it for the rd kids?

[potent reef]

yeah i think so

[ancient dune]

I don’t think so

Only for business school is it difficult

No

[unborn marsh]

@ancient dune

lets say that my efc is 0 then they would cover everything for me?

[ancient dune]

Yes

You might have to get some sort of loan

[unborn marsh]

are they also need blind

[ancient dune]

But won’t be that much

[unborn marsh]

i see just wanted to understand the concept

[ancient dune]

Yes

[unborn marsh]

oh coool beans

ty for the help

is it coming around the 3rd?

[ancient dune]

Probably

[unborn marsh]

holy that’s this friday

i mean next i guess lmao

i’m scared

this is like my top 3 choice and i alr got rejected by my second

[ancient dune]

I think the maximum need they cannot meet for oos is 7.5k/yr

[unborn marsh]

wdym

i don’t get it

[unborn marsh]

ohhh

[ancient dune]

Yeah

[unborn marsh]

so it’s acc pretty good

aslong as it’s lower than 35k i would consider it

[ancient dune]

Yes UVA is the best public school in terms of aid

For oos

[unborn marsh]

and if it meets aid then it’s set

but i just needa get in LMAO

i gave up in school LMAO

it’s second semester so no colleges will chdkc my grades

[ancient dune]

61k in financial aid

🤩

[unborn marsh]

oh lol

W

[sonic spruce]

Idk if ill go to uva tho

If I have umd

[ancient dune]

Same, but uva is much cheaper so

[unborn marsh]

i got into umd as well

depends on how i feel

[sonic spruce]

Yeah

[ancient dune]

UMD is good if you can afford it

Otherwise it’s not a good idea to go to UMD

[sonic spruce]

Wait why not good tho ?

[lyric crane]

no oos aid

so if u feel like payin allat then its pre good

top cs school

otherwise yk

[sonic spruce]

gotcha im in state

[lyric crane]

ye ur aiit then

[sonic spruce]

aiit?

oh aight

nvm

[lyric crane]

alright

uva has better aid

regardless

[sonic spruce]

int?

[lyric crane]

whats ur efc?

goddamn

[sonic spruce]

dang

[lyric crane]

mines 10k 😭😭😭

[sonic spruce]

niceee

thats really good aid

[lyric crane]

well

id say theyre comparable for cs

like if u had to weigh them

[sonic spruce]

i think umd 16 vs uva 29 but uva > prestige

[lyric crane]

cuz umd has better program uva better prestige
location wise theyre both around the dc area for like major cs jobs

[sonic spruce]

umd kinda dry tho

but good cs building

[lyric crane]

so is uva lol id say maybe more school spirit

alsi uva is likely going to rise in the rankings

same with vt

[ancient dune]

Yeah I agree

[lyric crane]

they both got huge budgets this year and are revemping engineering and cs

so like id say uva>umd all things considered unless u hv umd in state

[sonic spruce]

yeah vt been poppin off its also tied with uva for cs this year

[ancient dune]

Agreed

[lyric crane]

ye its acc a good school only problem is location for me

i love big cities

blacksburg is not a big city

but id go

[ancient dune]

Yeah fr

[lyric crane]

u could do a lot worse than vt if we're being fr

[ancient dune]

Charolettesville is a smallish city but it’s still got stuff

[lyric crane]

its like my soft safety im 90% sure im getting in and once thats confirmed my stress goes down so much

[sonic spruce]

is vt nice

idk what my options will be at the end

[ancient dune]

Yes

[sonic spruce]

prob umd, v tech, penn state, umbc, maybe uva, and rare chance duke

what would u guys choose from the list

[ancient dune]

UMD

ur instate

[lyric crane]

ye i spent a week there it has some pretty good resources and campus is kinda cool

the architecture is cool but cant tell the fucking buildings apart

dorms are like 6/7 out of 10

[sonic spruce]

yes true

[lyric crane]

but its solid

[sonic spruce]

my efc is 46 but umd in state is 30 so is dukle worth the extra 16 yearly

[lyric crane]

only thing is for cs no ones gets direct admit u hv to complete engineering requirements

[lyric crane]

46?

[sonic spruce]

46k

[ancient dune]

UVA has higher starting salary for CS than UMD and VT

[lyric crane]

if u got duke then duke otherwise umd

[lyric crane]

o shit xD

[sonic spruce]

i saw so many cs good jobs tho from umd

like apple, many MAANG kids too

[lyric crane]

how much yall make 😭

[ancient dune]

It would be a good idea to look at the college scorecards

[lyric crane]

umd has a HUGE cs population tho

[sonic spruce]

scorecars?

[ancient dune]

Same with UVA

[sonic spruce]

true

[lyric crane]

so competition would be there

[sonic spruce]

true both good options

[lyric crane]

i think this is uvas

[ancient dune]

Honestly fine by me

[lyric crane]

for cs

[sonic spruce]

but tution wise uva is like 15-16k more yearly prob

[lyric crane]

ye fax

[ancient dune]

Yeah only 2k lower than GT and 10k lower than UIUC

Ivies are around 150k for cs

[lyric crane]

bro im praying for Brown so hard

[ancient dune]

184k/yr lmao

[lyric crane]

ong

big chilling

and i get to pick my courses

id probs end up with a double major + minor

lmfao

[ancient dune]

Same with UVA

[sonic spruce]

cap

[lyric crane]

cs + math with a minor in creative writing

[lyric crane]

fr?

[ancient dune]

It’s not

[sonic spruce]

tutition ?

[lyric crane]

lol

https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/school/?217156-Brown-University

[ancient dune]

You could possibly double major in the LAS school

[sonic spruce]

ohhh salary

[lyric crane]

jus search up school and look

[ancient dune]

Yeah

[lyric crane]

i did coe but idk kinda regret

yk if its possible to switch

same major just the school

[ancient dune]

You can

[lyric crane]

also Brown has a completely open curriculum so u pick the major but can take quite literally anth u want

its their thing yk

[rocky wyvern]

hm does brown cost

[lyric crane]

They meet 100% need

So depends

[ancient dune]

I applied JHU cuz they also have open curriculum

I didn’t like brown tho

Idk never came to my mind

[lyric crane]

Was between upenn or brown for me

[sonic spruce]

i applied cmu scs

[lyric crane]

Said I’d only apply to 5 ivies max

[ancient dune]

CMU is hard asf

But they pay good

[sonic spruce]

its super stressful

thats why i dont know if its a good fit

[lyric crane]

Smartest person Ik got straight rejected ed

So dropped it cuz 0 chance

[ancient dune]

CMU 200k/yr starting salary

[rocky wyvern]

i feel like all those schools are boring though

they dont compare to uva in the slightest

[ancient dune]

Fr

[rocky wyvern]

like what is there to do at cmu other than read a book or tell people you go to cmu

[ancient dune]

[rough heath]

EA WHEN

[lyric crane]

prob friday

[ancient dune]

this was last year

they said they finished ahead of schedule

[lyric crane]

they said the same thing for ed iirc

from my friends who did ed

[ancient dune]

its kinda crazy that the ED acceptance rate for uva this year was 31% (in-state)

[eternal magnet]

Not higher?

[ancient dune]

im thinking the EA acceptance rate for instate kids is gonna be like lower 20s

[ancient dune]

yeah idk

for oos it was 17% ed

[lyric crane]

ye lot of ppl ik got rejected

[eternal magnet]

Bro what does UVA think they are

So EA will be like

10%

[lyric crane]

but i think the most insane ppl ik did ea tbf

[ancient dune]

yeah lol

[lyric crane]

i mean

will it really

if they accepted so few for ed

especially considering they probs didnt get as much as the ivies and shit

maybe they fill out with ea

🤷🏾‍♂️

[lyric crane]

so about 10k then

[ancient dune]

offer rate this year gonna be like 17% looking at patterns

[lyric crane]

welp

[ancient dune]

this is scary stuff

[eternal magnet]

Scam

[mild horizon]

middle 50% lets gooo

[lyric crane]

770 and 730 LOL

[mild horizon]

nevermind i mean bottom 25%

[lyric crane]

im pre much mid asf xD

test optional inflation 🎉🎉🎉

[mild horizon]

damn never thought about that

makes sense though

[ancient dune]

85% top 10% of class lol

[eternal magnet]

@ancient dune ur on me fr

[ancient dune]

❤️

[eternal magnet]

Idk why I pay for nitro

I have a year left

[ancient dune]

to be cute

[eternal magnet]

Real

[ancient dune]

like me

Nitro gets u unlimited discord bitches

[lyric crane]

wait alumni donor lets u pick a color?

[lyric crane]

shi thats where im fucked lmfao

[eternal magnet]

Yes

It does

[lyric crane]

im sold

[ancient dune]

just dont report class rank

then they cant do anything

[eternal magnet]

That’s what I did

My school

No GPA or rank

[lyric crane]

fs

[ancient dune]

s1ns with the boost too

look at this

everyone put ur color to bitch magnet

LOL

[lyric crane]

lmfao

where can i change it

@ancient dune

[ancient dune]

bot commands

[lyric crane]

ye

[rigid osprey]

Go into pittsburgh

A real city

[rocky wyvern]

pittsburgh is overhated

its a nice city

[rigid osprey]

Yeah

And it’s cheap

Charlottesville is not a real city

It actually kinda sucks

[rocky wyvern]

it seems fine

but yeah it's about as much of a city as princeton is lmao

[ancient dune]

nah charlottesville got some good opportunities tho

[rocky wyvern]

midsburg

im not just talking about the surrounding area tho

student life, athletics, etc

only thing to do at cmu is leave

[true lichen]

pittsburgh is miles better than philadelphia

pittsburgh clears in everything

well actually philadelphia clears in crime

[ancient dune]

charolettesville has a lot of intel/government shit

cybersecurity flourishes over there too

plenty of tech jobs

[true lichen]

(philadelphia sports is where it’s at though)

[lyric crane]

i didnt know that xD

[sonic spruce]

better than college park ?

cause college park is cool but its really boringg

[toxic tapir]

College Park is a suburb

[sonic spruce]

true

how much u rekkon uva will give to a person with 46k efc

[rocky wyvern]

ive been to both and im ngl charlottesville is better

[ancient dune]

25k

[ancient dune]

yeah

[sonic spruce]

ohhh thats barely anything thp 😭

[ancient dune]

well with a 46k efc be expecting a 46k/yr coa

but honestly its not a bad deal

[sonic spruce]

umd is 30k yearly

so extra 16k idk if its worth

[rocky wyvern]

how is md 30

instate?

[sonic spruce]

yes

[rocky wyvern]

both have the same dc opportunities imo

in my eyes youre just paying 60k difference for an experience

[sonic spruce]

so ud say umd >

[rocky wyvern]

in your case yes

[sonic spruce]

but the presitge tho

cs or more prestige

idk which is better

[rocky wyvern]

infinitesimal difference

its what you make out of it

u could be a shit student at uva, does prestige matter then?

[eternal magnet]

u could go to harvard and if ur an idiot, no one would respect you

[sonic spruce]

no but hopefully i wont bne

ill have to see all options

first but respect the opinions fs

[unborn marsh]

waitt so a person with 0 EFC would have to pay nothing for UVA?

[rocky wyvern]

right and hopefully i wont be a shit student if i go to uva too

[rocky wyvern]

if they get in, and thats unlikely

[sonic spruce]

prob ut u cant have 0 i think

[unborn marsh]

ive seen people with 0

and im p sure uva is need blind

[sonic spruce]

nah they are ned based

need

[rocky wyvern]

@sonic spruce if it was me tho id go to uva since my parents are gonna pay a lil and i value the experience over the difference in cost

[sonic spruce]

gotcha and wdym by the expereince

[rocky wyvern]

im a cavaliers fan

i like their basketball

[rocky wyvern]

i loved the campus when i visited

[eternal magnet]

according to lyrics yes

[rocky wyvern]

i want to join greek life

[unborn marsh]

@sonic spruce

they are need blnd

[sonic spruce]

lyrics said they take need into account i think

[rocky wyvern]

i have a hard time believing any university is actually need blind

[sonic spruce]

frr

[unborn marsh]

im p sure they are tho

[rocky wyvern]

no like they can say they are but are they truly need blind

[unborn marsh]

oh ye lol

[sonic spruce]

is that frat stuff and whats so good about that

[rocky wyvern]

yes thats frat stuff and it seems really fun

[eternal magnet]

greek life is frat lmao

[rocky wyvern]

its just abt finding likeminded people

[sonic spruce]

other than that is umd worth it cause its very boring i heard

nothing to do other than bars

which i wont go to

[rocky wyvern]

they have good sports

[eternal magnet]

friends bro @sonic spruce

its a big place

[sonic spruce]

?

ohhh

[eternal magnet]

u can find a lot of friends

[sonic spruce]

yeah

where do u wanna go @eternal magnet

[eternal magnet]

stanford

[sonic spruce]

gl

[rocky wyvern]

stanford is so nice

im not smart enough to apply

[eternal magnet]

i think i might have a shot

[sonic spruce]

ill have to take in account tution for all schools

30 vs 46 vs idek

[eternal magnet]

i think they purposely selected my interviewer

[ancient dune]

umd has a good cs but uva has better connections

[rocky wyvern]

right and i will too

[sonic spruce]

connections ?

[ancient dune]

yes

[sonic spruce]

like for jobs interns

[ancient dune]

yes

[eternal magnet]

bruhhh

"connections"

at that point

[rocky wyvern]

ive heard that uva has some of the best sofware engineers tho

[sonic spruce]

but both are same location dc near tyson tho

[rocky wyvern]

not sure where that was based from

[ancient dune]

yes

[eternal magnet]

even harvard only helps so much

umd has quantum computing

[rocky wyvern]

if u go to uva you could make bombs for lockheed

[sonic spruce]

machine learning seems better but quant pays crazy

[eternal magnet]

lol

umd > uva for cs no doubt

[rocky wyvern]

i think if you chase quant because of money youll get burnt

[eternal magnet]

uva is probably more fun tho

[ancient dune]

yes but uva is better overall

[eternal magnet]

yeah

quant is overrated

[ancient dune]

it depends if you wanna go for the cs program specifically or not

[sonic spruce]

like general ranking wise too but its too hard to get into as an asian male oos cs

[eternal magnet]

everyone and their mother wants to be a quant

[unborn marsh]

i wanna go for the better job opps

[sonic spruce]

if it lands good job and intern ill take it

[ancient dune]

not for uva

uva admits by college

not major

[sonic spruce]

ohh like umd

[eternal magnet]

@sonic spruce just go to cmu scs

[sonic spruce]

lmao i wont make it

[eternal magnet]

@ancient dune do u recognize this?

[rocky wyvern]

that gives me ptsd from friday

[lyric crane]

Same

[sonic spruce]

brooo

[ancient dune]

yes

uiuc poop

[sonic spruce]

wait hold up

is college board calculator accurate for tution prices

[ancient dune]

yes

they dont look directly at efc

they look at css profile

so there might be so discrepancy

[sonic spruce]

does uva give scholarships

[ancient dune]

not really

most of their money is devoted to need-based aid

but there are some

[lyric crane]

honestly wouldnt count on it

[sonic spruce]

Oh is it just Jefferson and Ik I’m not getting in prob anywyas but by the slightest chance

[lyric crane]

did u apply to the vt ones?

[sonic spruce]

No

[ancient dune]

yeah i did for honors

[lyric crane]

same

[ancient dune]

W

[lyric crane]

and on the scholarship site ig

engineering honors is acc pre good at vt

and the separate dorm is not bad

[ancient dune]

if i get cs honors at vt i might consider

but its probably really competitive

like 1500+

[lyric crane]

im considering vt cuz im not getting in anywhere lmao

[lyric crane]

sat?

or ppl

[ancient dune]

1510

[lyric crane]

i hv 1500 : P

[ancient dune]

1500 will carry

for uva

[lyric crane]

mid gpa tho

[ancient dune]

did you report rank?

[lyric crane]

3.77 uw/3.91 w

[lyric crane]

it was on my transcript

[ancient dune]

they recalculate gpa so

i think ur fine

[lyric crane]

i explained my circumstance

if theyre holistic fr then ill b aiit

[ancient dune]

3.77 is not bad for uva

[lyric crane]

7 aps

[ancient dune]

thats good

[lyric crane]

im dead smarter than most my grade

[ancient dune]

honestly you could get in

[lyric crane]

but my rank low

[lyric crane]

hoping

but its been fucked this year

[ancient dune]

rank wont matter to them.

[lyric crane]

judging from ed

[ancient dune]

they will understand ur circumstance

3.77 uw with 7 aps is pretty good

[lyric crane]

ill take a uva tbh

i jus rly want brown

tho

[ancient dune]

yeah

brown hard af tho

[lyric crane]

yep

[ancient dune]

honestly i hope i get jhu or yale

but its not gonna happen

[lyric crane]

what carries me is essays/story/diversity/sat

[ancient dune]

yeah

[lyric crane]

ecs are like alright

[ancient dune]

ecs are shit

for me

lol

[lyric crane]

i started a couple clubs and done a lot of community service back in africa

but im nothing like these nasa mfs

cuz like

how tf

[ancient dune]

thats great bro

trust me

[lyric crane]

0 acceptances got me thinking

but my rd>>> ea/ed

so imma jus wait

but i think uva more stats inclined tbh

[ancient dune]

yeah they are

im pretty sure every school is stats inclined

to a certain extent

[lyric crane]

well yeah ofc

but i mean in the sens eof certain schools seem to put more weight on essays and ecs

while others are gpa/courses/tests

caltechs essays were fuck who u r tell us bout engineering

meanwhile colombia and brown had a million personal ass essays

[ancient dune]

lol

[lyric crane]

and care bout how u will use what makes the school special (core and open)

[lyric crane]

i spent like a week on each

[ancient dune]

wow

well gl

i only applied to 3 schools rd

didnt really feel like shotgunning

uva is good enough for me

[lyric crane]

which ones

[ancient dune]

jhu yale and mit

[lyric crane]

me with 25

[ancient dune]

[lyric crane]

valid

wish i did mit

i just forgot cuz it had a separate app

and i was just like

common app checklisting yk

[ancient dune]

yeah

with uva and vt instate there really isnt much competition

in terms of programs or what not

cs is already t30 for both

[lyric crane]

i think theyre outside the impossible cs range yk

t10/20 cs is kinda like u better be sumn special yk

[ancient dune]

yeah

[lyric crane]

altho brown is 23 for cs but insane money

idk

[ancient dune]

i applied mostly to like public ivies

for cs

and a few privates

[ancient dune]

yeah

[lyric crane]

my remaining schools

i think i have a chance at a few

but most of these will be nos

[ancient dune]

i got into umd cs which was a vibe

[lyric crane]

valid

[ancient dune]

gl

one hell of a list

[lyric crane]

ye

apps took my whole winter break

feels like a waste now but o well

[ancient dune]

i mean hopefully you get into one of them

youll get into uva

[rocky wyvern]

goddamn

my list would have looked like that if i hadnt gotten in early though tbh

i totally get just applying to as many schools as possible so you have as many options as possible

especially when ur trying to compare aid and shit

[ancient dune]

im tryna get aid so my options are limited

and my instate options are crazy alr

so i dont really need to do much

[lyric crane]

Well yeah

And parents lol

My case is different so personally I believe it depends on who reads it

I either look rly good or just normal

[rocky wyvern]

wdym?

[lyric crane]

Moved from intl jr year

So grades are weird

3.77 uw but only 3.9 w

And no aps/hons before jr year cuz it wasn’t a thing in Nigeria

So my class rank very bad

But 1500 sat and 7 aps

[lyric crane]

Pretty much idk how they’ll evaluate me cuz my hs is half intl half domestic and senior year can’t rly get much done

And Ecs were limited by where I was but did best I could

Had hope to go for some of those reaches cuz holistic review but ea got me like maybe I shldve chilled out

[spice ravine]

same top 5 ish (but they all equal)

applying to business major (with unc, usc, northwestern, wake in top 5)

hopefully UVA lords bless me

[sonic spruce]

wait they recalculate gpa ?

[ancient dune]

All colleges do

[sonic spruce]

it says on their websites that they dont and instead they look at school per school and its details

[pine siren]

when uva decisión comeing out

this friday or next

[rocky wyvern]

this

[potent reef]

probably this friday but it could be next friday

and ed came out on like a tuesday this year so who knows

[rocky wyvern]

i think they said it was this friday

[potent reef]

i don’t think they officially have yet but probs within the next day or two? not on their socials yet i mean

[spice ravine]

prob lol

every year its been around this time

the website says latest date is 15 feb so

def this week + next week

[spice ravine]

ye the portal didnt say anything too

[eternal magnet]

Not true

[simple terrace]

why did someone say it would come out this friday?

[cinder dew]

Because it came on the first friday of february last year

[simple terrace]

oh ok

so theres no actual proof then

[cinder dew]

yes

[ancient dune]

because they better come out this friday

[simple terrace]

lol

[ancient dune]

i mean you got uiuc ur chillin

[simple terrace]

only if my parents are willing to let me go oos lol

[ancient dune]

[rocky wyvern]

[copper locust]

does anyone know when ea decision comes out

[ancient dune]

No

[chrome yacht]

good lord

like uva is actually getting to ivy levels in terms of test scores lmao

[lyric crane]

[lyric crane]

while uva's average sat is low, its cuz of athletes

so its skewed left

so in reality uva got like insane test scores

in the next 5 years uva gonna have a 800 math 75th percentile

actually crazy

honestly i might not make cs bro

shit

[lyric crane]

Ain’t no way 😭

[lyric crane]

IM scared af

Taken hella Ls so far

Might not even open it until vt

[ancient dune]

nah bro ima open

i just realized how competitive uva is

literally public ivy

[lyric crane]

😭

It’s just hittin

[ancient dune]

like georgia tech has lower scores than uva

[lyric crane]

Thing is in state buff don’t even help

[ancient dune]

its crazy

[lyric crane]

Va is hella fucking smart

[ancient dune]

fr

[lyric crane]

And everyone and they mama applying

[rocky wyvern]

yeah it is uva

it is extremely competitive

probably just as competitive as umich maybe even a little more depending on major

[lyric crane]

I’d say for cs Michigan more competitive but yeah

[rocky wyvern]

yeah i would say michigan is more competitive for stem

[simple terrace]

engineering in general is probably a little less than uom

[lyric crane]

Only@thing is I think not as many cs majors do uva compared to like gt

[ancient dune]

yeah umich is 1360-1530, GT is 1370-1520, UVA is 1400-1510

[rocky wyvern]

might be because most stem kids who were gonna go to uva would go to tech

[ancient dune]

hmm interesting

[lyric crane]

That’s true

I’d pick uva purely cuz of location and prestige

I like vt

Tho

[ancient dune]

yeah 100%

[rocky wyvern]

uva >>>

[ancient dune]

but uva is still competitive af

[ancient dune]

yeah

[rocky wyvern]

i feel like uva has a way better social environment

[ancient dune]

fr

[ancient dune]

it definitely does

[rocky wyvern]

[lyric crane]

😂 not as many as nova tbf

[rocky wyvern]

that is the point of a state school lol

[rigid osprey]

uva is literally like 50% nova kids

i actually like uva less and less because i hate nova kids\

[rocky wyvern]

nova kids can be rough

[ancient dune]

[ancient dune]

im not saying loudoun education sucks its definitely good

[rocky wyvern]

[rigid osprey]

[rigid osprey]

they have a better team than all the dc private schools too

[rocky wyvern]

tbf they take kids from all around dcps

[lyric crane]

Bro I ain’t gon lie ppl underestimate internationals 😭 my brother came here to a private school and wanted to skip to Algebra 2 his freshman year. His councillor told my parents that if he keeps up I. 2 weeks he can stay. Bro got a 110 in the class atm

[rocky wyvern]

[rigid osprey]

and got demolished

[rocky wyvern]

lmaooooo

[lyric crane]

Track?

[ancient dune]

i wasnt good with standardized tests to start with cuz they didnt teach hard enough so i kinda had to develop my skills later

[rigid osprey]

crew

rowing

[ancient dune]

thus i couldnt get into any magnet schools

[rocky wyvern]

my friend trevor was on there last year he is a fucking beast

[lyric crane]

I wish I was here tbh woulda been SO much better off

[rigid osprey]

lmao i was 3 percentiles off not getting in to tj based off my english test

[lyric crane]

Gpa and opportunities wise

[rocky wyvern]

they get recruited everywhere too i know wilson crew kids who are now rowing at penn and cornell and shit

[ancient dune]

the fact that everything about TJ/AOL admissions used to focus solely on the PSAT

[rigid osprey]

no shot

[ancient dune]

disappointing

[rigid osprey]

that would have motivated me to try for nms

[ancient dune]

they made me take the nmsqt in 8th grade

[rigid osprey]

i lowkey wish i studied more for psat and sat

[ancient dune]

like wtf am i supposed to do

scores 990

yay

[rocky wyvern]

i wish i studied more for psat yeah i didnt know it mattered

[simple terrace]

same I wish I knew abt the sat a little before

[lyric crane]

Same I coulda done better

[rocky wyvern]

not like princeton would give me any aid for that shit anyways though

[rigid osprey]

i mean i knew about the sat but i just didnt care

[lyric crane]

Dawg I slept during mine and got a high 1300 😭

[rigid osprey]

i figured i would get at least a 1500 and got it on the nose

[lyric crane]

My mom was like y ain’t u do better I’m like was I sposed to try fr

[ancient dune]

i knew the SAT mattered i was not born with inherit talent for it

like taking the PSAT was a challenge

[rocky wyvern]

i got a 1360 on psat i think

got 1510 on my first sat 1580 final try

[rigid osprey]

i got 1440 which was 40 off national merit consideration with no studying imagine

[rocky wyvern]

i didnt study for psat at all

i studied so hard for the sat though

[lyric crane]

In Nigeria ur grade is 60% of ur final grade and u need to pass a 9 week exam schedule in ur sophomore year to move on so I’ve been good at tests for a while

Here they care more bout consistent effort

Which is good ig

[simple terrace]

I think I got 1420 psat

[ancient dune]

American education is too fluff

it doesnt train you hard until late

[lyric crane]

U can cost very easily

Coast*

[ancient dune]

yeah

[simple terrace]

same but it wasnt for me so I just switched to act and did much better first try

[lyric crane]

Other countries r more brutal but less opportunities in my experience

[ancient dune]

but tbh America is better

[rigid osprey]

bro when are my teachers gonna finalize grades im tryna see if i got the geo extra credit to bump my 92.3

[ancient dune]
