two body problem (me and mit)

[waxen gorge]

[waxen gorge]

3 body problem (me, stanford, gatech)

[full ridge]

Yo guys stop talking about the mit admitted link - all it is is their public admissions page, it means nothing (you can view it without being logged in)

It's portal astrology

[waxen gorge]

[pine prism]

[waxen gorge]

[ruby stag]

it means nothing

[waxen gorge]

incapably absolutely explicitly nothing

[ruby stag]

decisions aren’t even loaded in

[pine prism]

i bet they are tho

[waxen gorge]

the portal astrology is already bad 💀

[ruby stag]

they said they make decisions until the last hour

[flat wedge]

how can we know if all of us were rejected 🤔🤔🤔/j

[fresh kelp]

Yeah, assuming they did things properly, no one's account is considered admitted until after the decision release.

[flat wedge]

thats crazy

[random valley]

Good ending

Evento

[verbal skiff]

[pine prism]

im so scared jesus

😭 fuc

[verbal skiff]

just asked for a more positive one 😽

[ruby stag]

The first card, representing the past, is the Four of Cups. This card suggests that you have been feeling unfulfilled or dissatisfied with your current situation, and have been searching for something more. You may have been feeling stagnant or stuck, and have been craving a new challenge or opportunity.

The second card, representing the present, is the Three of Wands. This card represents progress, growth, and expansion. You have been working hard towards your goal of getting into MIT, and you are starting to see the results of your efforts. You may be feeling confident and optimistic about your chances, and are eager to see what the future holds.

The third card, representing the future, is the Wheel of Fortune. This card suggests that your fate is in the hands of the universe, and that there are forces beyond your control at play. However, this card is also associated with good luck and positive changes. While you may not be able to predict the outcome of your MIT application, the Wheel of Fortune indicates that there is a chance for success and a positive turn of events.

Overall, this reading suggests that while you may have been feeling unfulfilled in the past, you are currently on a path of progress and growth towards your goal of getting into MIT. The Wheel of Fortune indicates that there is a chance for success, but it is important to remember that there are factors beyond your control. Stay optimistic and trust in the universe to guide you towards your path. Best of luck to you!

[verbal skiff]

there we go

[ruby stag]

[half basalt]

What has the college admissions process done to us

[ruby stag]

[placid fractal]

mit admissions so stressful they got stem nerds believing in astrology and tarot readings 💀

[quasi rover]

[ruby stag]

I formally apologize if I get into mit

[half basalt]

To us or to mit

[lapis wave]

u made a severe and continuous lapse in your judgement

[quasi rover]

You

I have no sympathy for any elite college

[verbal skiff]

my chances are 1000x better than getting wellesley so idgaf i've gotta get into at least one safety

[half basalt]

Feeling attacked rn

[ruby stag]

[ruby stag]

🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

[waxen gorge]

[indigo knoll]

I will literally flex a MIT waitlist under the end of the world

[placid fractal]

[ruby stag]

[sweet forum]

people are very much tweakin over MIT rn eh?

[ruby stag]

better than portal astrology

[verbal skiff]

wowow identical or fraternal

[sweet forum]

look: i have zero expectations

[waxen gorge]

fraternal

[sweet forum]

💀

[verbal skiff]

oh werk, same

[waxen gorge]

but we both ended up completely deaf (1/4 chance for both of us) so i think we're even luckier 💀

[verbal skiff]

my twin is a marine biologist who actually does not give a fuck about any of this

so he's the real lucky one

[ruby stag]

so based

[waxen gorge]

my twin is going to go to community college because he has no motivation for school and has Ds in his classes 😭

but he's an english major so pop off

[verbal skiff]

nice!

any suggestions for my acceptance playlist

[indigo knoll]

hold your horses

[verbal skiff]

no i already have ones for wl and reject

[ocean geyser]

My twin applied to like the same 5 reaches as me

[waxen gorge]

add "teen idle" to reject and "so much better" to acceptance (so much better literally encapsulates what it's like to be accepted/recognized and the relief after)

😇

[half basalt]

Love the juxtaposition between the discord and reddit megathread

[verbal skiff]

are people ok

[half basalt]

Someone said e days until pi day 😭

[half basalt]

And then this

[fair python]

bruh

honestly

not even stressed bc no chance i get in

i applied to pain myself tbh

[waxen gorge]

my mood changes like Acos(wt + phi) atp with college admissions tbh

[verbal skiff]

the defer hurt, like, a lot, but i've done well w/ other rejections?

Feel like EA prepared me well for RD rejections. Taking it well so far

[ocean geyser]

the solution to f(x) = (x-20.1256) left until pi day

[verbal skiff]

i've gained the ability to look at an email and convince myself i'm not the problem

which is probably the most useful/scary thing to come out of this whole process lmao

[quasi rover]

I dont care that much about any one school

like I got deferred harvard rea and didnt think too much about it for the rest of the day

[verbal skiff]

i can be content in knowing that, having been depressed for the better part of the past four years, i've already done much of the mit experience

[lofty vortex]

can't relate lmao after i got deferred from yale was roughhh

[ruby stag]

same

im going to take a 4y vacation

catch me at some party school (hopefully columbia or northwestern)

this is a joke

[verbal skiff]

i'm sorry--wishing you all the best these next few weeks :)

[ruby stag]

party school with lovely views fr

[timber urchin]

I wanna go to MIT for the clout and name and good education but at the same time it seems really tough and dull

[lofty vortex]

gahhhhh i love evanston

[ruby stag]

catch me in evanstown

[verbal skiff]

ugh i should've applied :/

[timber urchin]

Durham #1

[verbal skiff]

roscoe's was right there

but i wrote all of my rd essays during a family emergency and said no 🤩

[ruby stag]

the person ik who graduated last year said it was fine but it was really individual for a collaborative school and she didn’t enjoy it all that much

[lofty vortex]

ahh thank you:) and right back at ya

[ruby stag]

it’s really rough

[queen ledge]

oops

[half basalt]

Nahh it's definitely not dull

[timber urchin]

No don't ruin my perfect image of duke 🥲

[ruby stag]

this is for mit

LOL

not duke idk anyone who went to duke

[timber urchin]

Okay thank fuck

[queen ledge]

ik someone who got into duke lmao

[timber urchin]

Idk just seems like CMU and UChi

Very difficult

No fun

But I'll definitely still go if by some miracle I get in

[main shuttle]

yes guys if you go to MIT you'll die

(so pls withdraw your apps) /s

[timber urchin]

MIT is my 5th choice

[half basalt]

I feel like cornell fits in that category better... dont get the same vibes from mit personally.. its more of a "fun with stem"

[timber urchin]

True Cornell definitely would be in there

[half basalt]

But yeah definitely rigorous

[fervent junco]

Has portal astrology ever been right?

[verbal skiff]

northeastern ea

[half basalt]

Its rare but yes

[verbal skiff]

though, from what i hear, it was less astrology and more of an omen

[fervent junco]

Didn’t they just send an email accidentally

[verbal skiff]

and followed it up with a voicemail that confirmed it

[half basalt]

Seen a lot w Uchicago, yale, nyu

[cerulean steeple]

[dapper sedge]

[half basalt]

Better odds 2 miles over at harvard

[weak thicket]

🤣

get into harvard then cross register

[timber urchin]

Literally why I'd go to Harvard over MIT. I can take all the cool MIT finance courses but with the benefit of Harvard grade inflation for my core classes

[half basalt]

Only reason to apply to harvard

[cerulean steeple]

If u go to mit u can get any job u want

UChicago waitlist form, but that doesn't really fall under portal astrology.

[snow thunder]

uchicago but that was more of a mistake than portal astrology LOL

[fervent junco]

What happened

[snow thunder]

my portal had a "withdraw from waitlist" form

before decisions

and surprise i was waitlisted

like the day of but i did not check prior

[queen ledge]

did people actually get access to the admitted discord lmao

MIT!!!!!!

i thought yall are smart

yikes

man i really didnt wanna go out like this

if i get into mit ill kiss that beaver for longer than the digits of pi

[covert sentinel]

Idk if that beats buying a fursuit

Goddamn

[sullen nacelle]

good luck for MIT

[timber urchin]

I know im gonna be disappointed even though I have no expectations

[sullen nacelle]

there is an admitted discord already?

[weak thicket]

this

exact same feeling

[timber urchin]

For ea people

Literally gonna be my first rejection

Idk what to expect

Can there be negative confetti

[weak thicket]

what if we just join 🌚

[weak thicket]

what like

coal or smth

💀

christmas on pi day 🤩

[timber urchin]

You literally could. You could spend 4 years attending classes at MIT and then apply after

Join the discord

Buy merch

[timber urchin]

Yeah.. or rather than adding stuff on top of the screen like confetti, just have black confetti so it’s like something is removed

[sullen nacelle]

I honestly don't mind just attending classes there

it is the people and the culture

that is what's so awesome

[timber urchin]

How?

Just fake it

[fresh kelp]

I wonder if they loaded decisions into the discord verifying thing?

[timber urchin]

It’s not official afaik

Just run by students

[fresh kelp]

Isn't petey the lead admissions person

Also: https://discord2027.mit.edu:444/verify2027.php?id=1074745070009466890&auth=e24f89c053fdfaa03fed480dc506a38f06d20172e3afb0bb95ebf1cf98f71d15

I doubt they are stupid enough to have saved decisions on there though.

[timber urchin]

Hmm interesting

It says invalid email though

[sullen nacelle]

hmm

I see

[timber urchin]

Seems unlikely their discord manager(s) get decisions in advance

Or maybe I’m just coping because it didn’t let me in

[fresh kelp]

Yeah, I think it’s very unlikely it would let any RD admit in before the admissions decisions are posted.

my 7th choice

[sullen nacelle]

💀

[quasi rover]

but I probably wont care much after I get rejected

[fervent junco]

What are your top 6

[timber urchin]

Every top school is my first choice if I get in

But when decisions are still unknown, MIT is #5 for me

After Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, and Penn

[quasi rover]

Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Duke, Northwestern

MIT sounds like a higher pressure environment which is why I dont like it as much as I should as someone who is probably gonna do CS

[fervent junco]

MITs my top 1

[quasi rover]

Good lujck

[weak thicket]

😭

[fervent junco]

Top 5 are probably

1. MIT
2. Harvard
3. Carnegie
4. Northwestern
5. Penn

[weak thicket]

1. MIT
2. Yale
3. Pton
4. Harvard
5. Columbia

[sullen nacelle]

MIT is overwhelming top choice

[quasi rover]

Lol

I should not get in bro

Im so sorry if I do

its my 7th choice and I turned my app in at 11:59 with a 60 word essay

💀

[ruby stag]

would be based if you did

[quasi rover]

My other essays were good though

so hopefully it comes off as a failed attempt to be profound

Mit is sane

They emailed like a week before i think but its always 3/14

[ruby stag]

udub was like 11:28pm est 💀

mit wouldn’t release that close to midnight

[plucky notch]

true

[timber urchin]

MIT has the most regular release schedule for RD

Always 3/14

3:14PM if a weekend

[ocean geyser]

So fucking based

[timber urchin]

6:28PM if weekday

[ocean geyser]

They probably have like 200% increase compared to a few years ago

But they still keep it 3 14

Gigachad

[ruby stag]

they’re down 6k apps this year

[timber urchin]

And no legacy

Or recruited athletes

Just amazing

[ruby stag]

yeah they don’t allocate any spots to ALDC

[ocean geyser]

Chad MIT(always 3 14) vs Virgin other colleges(Mid-March/late-March)

[weak thicket]

what does this stand for again

hiii guys sleep attempt unsuccessful

lmfao

[ruby stag]

athlete legacy deans list children of staff

[weak thicket]

right right

forgot the C

[ruby stag]

mit probably does still do DC

I don’t think any college doesn’t

[weak thicket]

yeah but no legacy is good for me

lol

[timber urchin]

Dc?

[ruby stag]

deans list and children of staff

[timber urchin]

Ohh yeah probably

[fervent junco]

There are recruited athletes they are just subject to harsher standards than at another school

[timber urchin]

The boost in admission chances is minimal

[fervent junco]

I think 25-30% of recruited athletes get in, but this is also a very vetted group

[ruby stag]

recruited athletes are usually higher scoring if not as high scoring as the rest of the class

they have to have 1550+

Yes

they sent to counselors

[fervent junco]

A decrease makes sense

[weak thicket]

damn

[gritty inlet]

Throw a party smash a pie into someone's face (for fun)

[fervent junco]

Since they are test required

[weak thicket]

no dumb jocks at mit /j

[weak thicket]

so real for that

[fervent junco]

A coach said that 1450 is the bare minimum to proceed, but that they want to see a 1500

[ruby stag]

ooo interesting

so they’re usually as high achieving if not higher than the class

[weak thicket]

sleep attempt #3 🤩🤩🤩 here we go

[fervent junco]

It also depends how valuable of a recruit you are, some top recruits likely have a 50%+ chance of getting in

[next hinge]

how many admitted in EA ?

[fervent junco]

~5% acceptance rate this year

[ruby stag]

uhh let me see if i can find

[pine prism]

less people will be admitted this year 😦

[fervent junco]

Yeah 750 is the bare minimum for math

[pine prism]

yeah but from a stronger pool

[ruby stag]

nah they said about the same

yeah i think so

[prisma palm]

did they say why at 6:28 pm est

[fervent junco]

Probably

[ruby stag]

yay

[snow thunder]

its pi x 2

[ruby stag]

bruh

[prisma palm]

oh

[ruby stag]

tau

[snow thunder]

its just funny

oh what

[pine prism]

LOL

[ruby stag]

autocorrect

[ocean geyser]

Does MIT care about intended major?

[pine prism]

3:14 would cause disruptions at school

[fervent junco]

I wish I took the sat again for perfect math

[ruby stag]

tau is 6.28318…

[ocean geyser]

The applicant portal said it doesn’t matter but I’m quite suspicious that CS wouldn’t be harder than something like Linguistic

[fervent junco]

You want to have some ECs related to your major, but beyond that no

[placid fractal]

tau >>>>>>>>>>> pi

[ocean geyser]

Damn

[placid fractal]

thats just fax

[pine prism]

no

[ocean geyser]

Pi is so much better

[pine prism]

pi = circumference / radius

very beautiful

[minor isle]

this was sent to counselors?

[pine prism]

tau = 2 * pii

scuffed

[ruby stag]

Yes

[fervent junco]

It’s 30% cs if they considered major it would probably be lower

[minor isle]

pi = tau/2

[fervent junco]

Yield of 82% is crazy

[ocean geyser]

If pi was tau, then the answer to the Basel problem would be so fucking ugly

[ruby stag]

i went to an info session and they said 70%+ applies as cs but ~30% sticks with it

[ocean geyser]

So pi is better

[lone tusk]

i cant believe i asked for a SEPERATE rec letter for MIT only to get rejected

[ruby stag]

rip

[pine prism]

do you apply ea?

[lone tusk]

had to go in there like "uhhhh... i know u already wrote me one for common app, but can you... write it again????"

[lone tusk]

nah rd im just predicting my reject today

[fervent junco]

If 70% apply as cs then maybe doing a different major would help you stand out

[ocean geyser]

Damnnnn

[ruby stag]

what happens if two people apply to the same school with recs from the same teachers

that probably say the same things

[pine prism]

wait isn't applying cs supposed to make it harder for you

that doesn't make sense

[lone tusk]

eh they know thats gonna happen, its not gonna make a huge difference

[ruby stag]

alright

yea my friend and i both applied

[ocean geyser]

Only two people from my school applied

[ruby stag]

she’s a math major though

[pine prism]

"holistic admissions" be like

[ocean geyser]

My school sent two kids in 4 years

[fervent junco]

A bunch of people from my school applied

[ocean geyser]

But both of them were women in stem

[ruby stag]

isn’t mit heavy on olys for math

[ocean geyser]

So it’s not looking good for me

[fervent junco]

My school consistently sends like 1 a year

[ruby stag]

looking decent for me

jk

[pine prism]

dang that's good

[ocean geyser]

But then again we’re a humanities oriented school

[ruby stag]

my school has sent 0 ever

and i won’t be the first but i hope my friend is

[fervent junco]

Actually idk if it’s consistently I just know we sent 1 for two years in a row

[minor isle]

pretty sure me and my friend had the same teacher recommenders and we both got into all our schools so far (i did not apply to chicago but he got waitlisted there rd); point being its certainly feasible for both to get admitted as long as you are strong candidates

[ocean geyser]

My “research” was so weak and super unrelated to my major

[ruby stag]

nice

[ocean geyser]

And my olympiads are mid af so hopefully my essays carry

[lone tusk]

lmao same bruh, i can barely consider it "research" it was so mickey mouse

[pine prism]

olympiad is not an easy route at all unless you start in like 3rd grade 😢

[minor isle]

i think ~10 kids from my school applied, our school sent 2 last year and i think 1 the year before iirc

[lone tusk]

or youre just naturally talented

[ruby stag]

i have a lot of research / math but she has a higher test score

[ocean geyser]

Getting AIME is definitely easier than real research

But USAMO is probably same level

[minor isle]

yes

[ruby stag]

depends on where you live

AMC isn’t offered anywhere in my state

[fresh kelp]

I mean, it all depends on the research done. You can’t really blanket compare research with olympiads.

[lone tusk]

maybe this is just me being salty but everyone i know that has gotten into mit or another school like mit is just insanely naturally smart. like they were the type kids who could just get a's without studying and spend most of their time on ecs. unfortunately i am not like that at all so i have mid ecs and grades on the level as the insane ec kids.

i think that this applies for amc too

[ocean geyser]

I was friends with the person that got into MIT last year

And she was insane at math

[ruby stag]

what are you classifying as insane ecs

im sure your version of mid isn’t mid

[lone tusk]

nonprofits, real research, significant commitment to something else of the sort(sports, olympiads, etc)

[ocean geyser]

And also it depends what you did in the research

[fresh kelp]

Sure, but even when comparing cases of “real research”, there is a wide range.

[ruby stag]

some guy got into mit and his #1 ec was eagle scouts

[waxen gorge]

making a neutron star in ur basement

[ocean geyser]

I did “real research” but I had very little participation

[waxen gorge]

also, nonprofits are usually full of shit

[fervent junco]

My ECs are weak for MIT

[waxen gorge]

no offense to those genuinely doing nonprofits

but most people make them JUST for college

[ocean geyser]

Facts

[lone tusk]

in my junior year i had a part time job and nothing else. and that pretty much killed me i was so stressed with school and a 6hrs/wk job

[waxen gorge]

and then it collapses

[minor isle]

i mean simply stated mit is looking for people who are insane at STEM, in regard to research it typically means genuinely being able to conduct a project on your own or in a lab setting (no not cleaning test tubes) and having a strong recommendation from the mentor that aligns with your app

[ruby stag]

im p strong for mit considering my area (important to contextualize my area or it means jackshit) and my essays are good, but my test score is disqualifying

[pine prism]

nonprofits really do work though

[ocean geyser]

Me who’s applying for humanities

[minor isle]

there was a kid in my region who made a big math tutoring company, got into harvard, and just like stopped working on the company

[lone tusk]

i just cant imagine kids who are running nonprofits, playing varsity sports, placing high in olympiads, doing significant leadership positions, etc and still maintaining grades without being really naturally smart, especially in STEM

even if the nonprofits are mickey mouse

[minor isle]

i mean if you are crazy in humanities you def can get in as well

[ocean geyser]

Definitely not me 😭

[minor isle]

😭

[lone tusk]

when i first did amc i didnt know you lose points for wrong so i filled all the q's out like a dumbass

i thought it was the sat

[ocean geyser]

??

You don’t?

[ruby stag]

i’ve noticed aside from the naturally cracked kids they tend to have a lot of artsy people

[quasi rover]

how much do they care about your general rea

[pine prism]

wait idt it's being insanely smart, i think people like that are just incredibly hard working

[ocean geyser]

You get points for unanswered questions

[lone tusk]

thats what i meant

[ruby stag]

area? they’re actually very holistic

[pine prism]

wait I never leave stuff blank on amc, it's better to guess

[waxen gorge]

personally there is no fucking way anyone has multiple leadership positions + do olympiads + varsity + nonprofits and good grades, they're most likely president but doing nothing, varsity + good grades i can believe and maybe olympiads

like presidents of multiple clubs is a massive red flag to me

like wtf

[serene tinsel]

I put 20 goddamn awards in my FUN form so MIT please cmon ik the chances are unbelievably low but mon

[ruby stag]

20 💀

[ocean geyser]

😭😭😭 this is me

[pine prism]

💀

[ruby stag]

idk how many i put

14?

[pine prism]

i put 0 awards

[ruby stag]

but i combined a few

[lone tusk]

im not sure its that either... i think a lot of kids just DONT need to study, and can just be insane test takers. i know this is probs me being salty but it took me 4 tries to get a 1540 on the SAT. i know kids who got that in 1-2 tries minimal studying

[pine prism]

wtf

[fervent junco]

I put like 2-3 damn

[quasi rover]

Am I fucked if I had no real updates for my fun form lol????

[ocean geyser]

I’m cohead of 5 school organizations

[ruby stag]

9 for piano, 3 for math, some other miscellaneous

[waxen gorge]

i mean it depends but i've just seen so many people w multiple clubs or whatever and they're not actually doing something with it 😭

[minor isle]

i think this depends on the school, but also keep in mind its not like these people are solely doing hte work for the club

[lone tusk]

i rmbr last year in ap chem i would spend HOURS studying and see my friends talking about research/clubs/olympiads and not studying

[waxen gorge]

that too

[ocean geyser]

And I actually do so much work, it’s just that two of them happen at different parts of the year so it’s manageable

[serene tinsel]

yeah i got a 1540 by studying for 3 days 1st attempt, but SAT is basically very unstandardized depending on region

[ruby stag]

sent an update with 4 more

[waxen gorge]

i got a 34 just for memorizing the english rules on the act

[fervent junco]

It doesn’t

[lone tusk]

true. also heavily dependent on money/region

[ruby stag]

however it doesn’t matter 💀💀💀 im thrown out once they see 32

[lone tusk]

but it is partially talent i think

[quasi rover]

ok but how big of a deal is it to not submit any awards on the FUN lol

[fervent junco]

Wha Rec letter would they use on that!

[minor isle]

did you apply test optional to other schools or submit your act everywhere

[quasi rover]

I didnt even think about it

[fervent junco]

Not that big

[ruby stag]

went test optional most places

[fresh kelp]

Did you not submit the research supplement? I thought they would use that to judge the caliber of research.

[fervent junco]

Not any deal tbh it was a period of a few months

[pine prism]

idts

i think they actually read it

[minor isle]

^^^^ very true

[ruby stag]

i didn’t want to explain my test score everywhere, i just shotgunned mit because they let me put a thorough explanation about my cirkcunsrabces and area

[lone tusk]

its not i think they read it

[ocean geyser]

Wait seriously?

[lone tusk]

if u did the research supp

[ocean geyser]

The read all the research?

[pine prism]

did you do research with a mentor?

[lone tusk]

i mean at caltech they said that the profs take a look at it

[minor isle]

if you submit a research portfolio i believe professors read it

[lone tusk]

if im not mistaken

[fresh kelp]

Oh, I didn’t realize you were international. 💀

[minor isle]

at caltech, everyone's application is approved by faculty prior to admission

[ocean geyser]

What if I did research but didn’t submit a separate research supplement

[ruby stag]

did you have to have a mentor rec?

[pine prism]

they wrote a rec then right?

[serene tinsel]

man i went the ISEF pathway as an international olympiads require you to absolutely give up all of your time atleast in india

[pine prism]

mit will look at their rec and see it's legit

[minor isle]

yes you have to submit a mentor rec with research supp

[lone tusk]

no wonder my mickey mouse "research" got me rejected rea 💀

[minor isle]

lol

what did you do for research

[ruby stag]

i have a mentor rec for the research i did (submitted with app) but couldn’t submit my actual research because it’s confidential 💀💀💀

they won’t let me submit actual policy drafts until they’re approved

[lone tusk]

wow thats pretty impressive congrats!

[pine prism]

wait dang

nice

[ruby stag]

wow

[lone tusk]

any nonprofit owners here

[pine prism]

did you apply for oxbridge?

[lone tusk]

founders

[pine prism]

I'm sure they would accept you

[fervent junco]

What country are you from if you are comfortable saying!

[serene tinsel]

india

[ocean geyser]

I worked for my friends nonprofit lol

[lone tusk]

fr if u crush the math entrance

its easy

did u do the waterloo math test

[serene tinsel]

i did Fermat

[ocean geyser]

It’s a legit nonprofit that runs like two actual schools in Mexico tho

[ruby stag]

youre not at a disadvantage at all for being into then

[pine prism]

wait does mit actually accept only oly kids for canada?

[fervent junco]

MIT’s strict with Canada?

[lone tusk]

thats cool actually

[ruby stag]

No

[light depot]

bruh

olympiads are fun wym resume padding

[fresh kelp]

In an essay about why physics/math, I had discussed Artin’s Algebra. I hope they don’t think I was talking about HS/Middle School algebra lol because then the rest of my essay will make no sense.

[fervent junco]

Just because you didn’t get into caltech doesn’t mean it doesn’t matter

[ruby stag]

oh tf

[ocean geyser]

BRUH your username

[lone tusk]

how are olympiads like usamo/usapho resume padding? theyre hard asf

[ocean geyser]

USACO moment

[fervent junco]

Caltech is insanely competitive

[light depot]

lmao

[pine prism]

lol

[lone tusk]

what major ru applying for

[light depot]

u do usaco?

[ruby stag]

caltech is like the top 10% of who gets into mit

[fresh kelp]

Physics/Math

[ocean geyser]

USACO was the second worst use of my time

[light depot]

oh

what league

[ocean geyser]

First being usapho

[lone tusk]

usaco only because cheating is rampant. its actually difficult

[ocean geyser]

I got gold

[light depot]

damn

[lone tusk]

nice!

[ocean geyser]

Yeah

[light depot]

im hardstuck silver xdd

[ocean geyser]

Plus the difficult has skyrocketed

Recently

[light depot]

ill probably make gold by december

[pine prism]

cheating is also rampant in amcs

[light depot]

i usually can headsolve the problems

[ocean geyser]

This year bronze was like last year silver

[lone tusk]

if only i had known about these things earlier 😦 i go to a underresourced hs and didnt know about any olympiads until WAY too late

[light depot]

but suck at implementation

[light depot]

nah did u see january bronze

its was free asf

[lone tusk]

this is a good point

[ruby stag]

same don’t feel bad about it

[light depot]

i know so many people who icp'd

[ocean geyser]

No I mean the us open

[ruby stag]

they contextualize that

[light depot]

oh

[lone tusk]

how do people cheat in amc

[ocean geyser]

It was so easy to cheat that one year they did remote

[lone tusk]

its fine im just going to do ACM in college

[lone tusk]

oh they did remote i didnt know that

[ocean geyser]

Yeah

[pine prism]

leaked answers, but also amcs were unproctored in 2020 and 2021 so high 230s usamo cutoffs

[ocean geyser]

They even did remote for the aime

I remember being so salty

[lone tusk]

💀

[light depot]

oh

[lone tusk]

imagine making usamo by cheating

[pine prism]

ikr

[light depot]

i imagine that aime qual is kinda useless now

literally everyone has it

[pine prism]

yeah so is usamo qual tbh

[ocean geyser]

I was so close to usamo last year

[lone tusk]

ur gonna super underperform there anyways

[light depot]

no usamo qual still has meaning

cuz its only top 250

[fresh kelp]

I managed to get to gold in USACO only with python and a little Java, but it seems near impossible to make platinum without C++ and I really won’t want to use C++.

[light depot]

isnt it like 1/5 usamo kids get into mit

[serene tinsel]

man in india there is only one school that can give the AIME/AMC and its such gatekeeping cause its a rich kid school, i tried to contact that school to give it but they denied

[lone tusk]

you think i have a better chance of getting in with materials science engineering? its kind of a less popular major

[ocean geyser]

Yeah I only code in c++ and c

[pine prism]

also 1/5 usamo kids got usa(j)mo awards at some point so...

[light depot]

i only do c++

[lone tusk]

william lin be like

[ocean geyser]

Qi be like

[subtle bramble]

I think MIT doesn’t admit by major

[lone tusk]

yes, but they do ask about it. i would assume that they might care since so many kids are applying for cs. they need to fill slots for less popular majors right

even if its not by major per se

[snow thunder]

17 hours babyyy

[ocean geyser]

I hope they give me a humanities boost 😭😭😭

[fresh kelp]

Yeah, I’m not actually interested in CS, but I like programming for math/physics/some engineering applications so I’m familiar with Python, Java, Matlab, and Maple(because a math professor required it for a topology class)

[snow thunder]

💀

[ruby stag]

no

[lone tusk]

maple thats cool. bro how are you doing TOPOLOGY in HS 💀

[ocean geyser]

Philosophy majors wya

[snow thunder]

mit is funny like that

the one major option

[verbal walrus]

Usamo still harder to qual than the other national olys

[pine prism]

idk humanities at mit doesn't seem too appealing

[ocean geyser]

I’m taking it rn lol

[verbal walrus]

Cuz more people participate

[snow thunder]

no cause i put "prelaw" bc it was an option but its not a major LMFAOO

[lone tusk]

bro what maths did u take last year and the year before

[light depot]

wish i could take more advanced math classes in high school

[lone tusk]

im guessing you did linear alg as a sophomore?

[light depot]

our school only offers up to AB

[ocean geyser]

I finished calculus as a sophomore

[light depot]

and they only allow us to take it in grade 12

[ocean geyser]

And then stats + set theory junior year

[light depot]

yeah ill be done bc this year

[ocean geyser]

And then calculus based stats this year

[indigo knoll]

I took linear alg and diff eq this year

[lone tusk]

that sucks. canadian right?

[indigo knoll]

along with calc bc

[ocean geyser]

Plus topology

[light depot]

yep canadian

[lone tusk]

holy crap thats insane

[pine prism]

same as my old school

[verbal walrus]

I did calc bc exam as sophomore but shcooo only taught calc in Junior

[lone tusk]

its fine, even if we dont go to mit we can literally own our state schools

[ruby stag]

where do you even take topology

[light depot]

do you know that if i finish bc this year, will i be able to take uni courses even if i havent actually taken calculus courses in school?

[ocean geyser]

My school lol

[light depot]

like maybe at a comunity college or something

[lone tusk]

uni courses in what? im not sure

[ocean geyser]

It’s a top boarding school

[light depot]

like calc 3

[pine prism]

did u take linag and multi?

[ruby stag]

yes by applying to mit you’re probably in the top 1% of your state school

[lone tusk]

idk youd have to ask admissins

[light depot]

or linear alg

oh

[pine prism]

new england?

[ocean geyser]

Yeah

[pine prism]

groton school?

[ocean geyser]

Nope

Got rejected by them lol

[ruby stag]

andover moment

[pine prism]

choate?

[minor isle]

dual enrollment at a local university (not community college)

[ocean geyser]

Naw

[ruby stag]

yeah that makes sense

[pine prism]

exeter? 😮

[ocean geyser]

It’s like the Dartmouth of top boarding schools

[light depot]

do any of u guys know how waterloo compares to us unis? (like obviously mit its much better but like overall ranking)?

[ocean geyser]

Top, but not too top

[lone tusk]

its good if ur tryna go for a tech job

i think

[minor isle]

[light depot]

tryna make quant lol

[lone tusk]

all i know is joma tech dont quote me on that lol

[ruby stag]

i took all of my cc’s math classes but they wouldn’t let me dual enroll math at the flagship because i’d have to be in person

[light depot]

yeah its pretty good for tech

apparently it feeds faang so

[minor isle]

globally 154 is not bad

[light depot]

like worldwide?

[minor isle]

at all

[pine prism]

concord academy??

[lone tusk]

this is partly based on research so its not so important i think for jobs n such

[serene tinsel]

guys for cs check the brown cs rankings

[ocean geyser]

💀

I’m about to be doxed

[minor isle]

i mean what it is n reference to canada schools

[pine prism]

wait is it

[serene tinsel]

they are better than QS and US News

[light depot]

its number 1 in canada

[lone tusk]

like qs rankings show iit bombay being super low but for getting a job its really good

[minor isle]

oh shit

[lone tusk]

its cuz research isnt the best

[ocean geyser]

Don’t dox me

[light depot]

but canadian unis arent that competitive

[pine prism]

pm?

[lone tusk]

isnt UW CS super hard?

[light depot]

the only ones that are competitive here somewhat are uw, uoft, mcgill, and mcmaster

[minor isle]

i mean num 1 school in canada will be quite good, prob like comp to t30 US school i would assume but correct me if i am wrong

[light depot]

and maybe a couple others

[light depot]

yeah their CS is really ahrd to get into

[serene tinsel]

https://drafty.cs.brown.edu/csopenrankings/

[light depot]

but not impossible

like not even dartmouth hard

[minor isle]

they got waterloo 16

[light depot]

yeah i was thinking like t20 or t30 us

[serene tinsel]

waterloo has a guaranteed co-op and honours in cs its very sexy

[light depot]

most likely ill probably go to waterloo cuz i dont want to pay 300k on a us colleg

[fresh kelp]

Following Calculus BC(9th grade), I took 1.5x full time coursework at my community and state college, much of which was math.

[light depot]

yep waterloo co-op is really good

lol calc bc 9th grade pretty good

[lone tusk]

god fucking damn

[light depot]

anyone know how hard it is to get into cambridge or oxford

[lone tusk]

i thought bc in 11th was impressive 💀

[light depot]

cuz they're like t5 global

[lone tusk]

not as hard as u might think if u crack their entrance test

[fresh kelp]

So, in 10th grade, for example, I did Calc 3, Diff EQ, Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Advanced Calculus 1(kind of like an intro to real analysis), and a couple other more obscure math classes plus some physics+CS stuff at colleges + 8 high school courses. It was a fun time.

[quasi rover]

from what I understand if you get a bunch of AP 5's and then do well on their test

you get in

[light depot]

i saw cambridge's requirement for canadian students and they say 5's on 5 ap tests

minimum

[quasi rover]

although that is still hard

[light depot]

which is kinda free tbh

[next hinge]

very high weightage on acads and very low on ECs so many find it easier

[light depot]

idk how hard their admission test is tho

[minor isle]

bro holy fuck you did so much math

[light depot]

yeah thats what i heard

[main shuttle]

it's not that bad it's just

different

[minor isle]

i did your 10th grade curriculum throughout my whole hs career

[light depot]

uk unis dont care much about ecs

[lone tusk]

bro got a bs in math by 12th grade

💀

[main shuttle]

they almost don't give a shit

the interview matters way more

like wayyyy more

[minor isle]

nah thats not even an exaggeration

[main shuttle]

it's a technical interview though (for STEM fields)

[light depot]

oh damn

[ocean geyser]

You the mf that’s competing against me

[main shuttle]

so you gotta know your stuff

[ocean geyser]

I’m getting rejected

[light depot]

well thats unlucky i hate interviews

[fresh kelp]

I mean, I was pretty lucky. The coursework I did would have cost around 20k-30k USD, but it was all fully covered under a fellowship my research mentor got me which allowed me to actually do it.

[light depot]

vivek u do math comps too?

[fast socket]

the only year i didnt make aime lmaoooo

[light depot]

sheeeeeeeeesh

[ocean geyser]

It was my second time making it

And I did so shit

[light depot]

i didnt even do amc :/

school didnt offer

will probably just take it at a seperate place in grade 11 and 12

[ocean geyser]

If you have a RSM near you you can take it there

[light depot]

[minor isle]

literally all the classes i did in hs except 9th were dual enrollment, so i was able to go relatively far (similar cost of coursework) in terms of math (linear alg, diff eq, discrete, multivariable calc) but I also did a lot of chem (Ochem 1 and 2, biochem, physical chem etc)
