[vestal lava]

i want to make money though

ill take phil classes but idk if i would major in it

[rich mist]

im going to cry

big fat tears

[alpine pecan]

guys any tips for the brown question that says "What three words best describe you? " 😭

like how am i supposed to describe myself in THREE words??

[devout forum]

i did one fun word (kebab-loving) and then two more serious ones

for the serious ones just dont put something super cliche like “hardworking” cuz literally everyone says that

or “kind”

just try to find better words that describe ur character

those are my two cents

[alpine pecan]

i seee

thanks!

[mystic meteor]

i lowkey trolled that question

LOL

[hidden heart]

Philosophers do not make money is a myth

See Thales

[vestal lava]

n=1

[wide thicket]

how do modern philosophers earn income

[devout forum]

become faculty at a university

[wide thicket]

minus having to interact w people

[valid magnet]

Don't go to Harvard cuz the whether sucks in Mass lol

[alpine pecan]

i love rainy weathers tho

[valid magnet]

Its not the rain usually the snow lol

And cold

[hidden heart]

They become CEOs and billionaires and capitalists

Duh

You’d be surprised how many modern day billionaires wanted to be philosophy majors back in college

Plus they can’t exploit the system well without a good understanding of modern society through the lens of philosophy

[wide thicket]

omg hai

[hidden heart]

hi i’m stuck at times square

do you wanna come say hi

extra points if you do so antisocially

[wide thicket]

I WAS JUST THERE

[hidden heart]

💀💀

[wide thicket]

I WENT TO SEPHORA

and had food with my friend

[hidden heart]

oh oki that’s a bit away

[wide thicket]

im back at home now though

[hidden heart]

sounds like a typical new yorker day

[wide thicket]

what have you been up to

[hidden heart]

crying probably

went to the met today and that was about it

slow day

[wide thicket]

COOL!!!!

did you hide poems

around a library

[hidden heart]

not yet unfortunately

i’m still writing the letters and they’re kinda sad

but then again so are most of my works

i made two friends cry the other day with my poem series

[wide thicket]

people at brown?

[hidden heart]

yes

i made a stem kid cry

can you believe

well not really but yeah

[wide thicket]

who

[hidden heart]

not sure you know them

internationals

[wide thicket]

i know them

👍🏼

i have been in the globe multiple times

[hidden heart]

actually no

i’m keeping their secret

[wide thicket]

ok!

[hidden heart]

but i was pretty proud that my poems could move people like that

[wide thicket]

mhm yeah

it’s a nice feeling

[hidden heart]

do you ever write love poems

dedicated to someone irl

share please

[wide thicket]

yup

👍🏼

dark time of my life

well i wouldn’t necessarily call them poems

[hidden heart]

OMG SHARE

LETTERS??

[wide thicket]

actually i don’t really write a lot based on irl situations

[hidden heart]

EVEN BETTER

[mystic meteor]

so it's just

lemon

[wide thicket]

i make imaginary scenarios based on shadows of real events

[hidden heart]

💀💀💀💀

confirmed

[wide thicket]

because i don’t like thinking about it that deeply

[hidden heart]

well isn’t that what writing fiction literally is

[wide thicket]

💀

no

[hidden heart]

what

[wide thicket]

u asked me if I wrote poems based on real things

[wide thicket]

i don’t have it i gave it to them

[hidden heart]

i was talking about phrasing stories as parodies of real life events

oh my god

oh wait you’ve had relationships right??

[wide thicket]

😭😭😭

[hidden heart]

makes sense

[wide thicket]

yes

well

it’s complicated but yes technically

i have

wby

[hidden heart]

i find that my best works are always written out of unrequited feelings

[wide thicket]

stop not the miscommunication arc

i suffered through one of those for literally like 4 years

[hidden heart]

i’ve had relationships but they’re so far away now from who i am

[wide thicket]

i see 👍🏼

[hidden heart]

not miscommunication

rejection

lmfao

[wide thicket]

ohhh

yeah the 4 year thing had that too

[hidden heart]

i’m romantically a failure

so i dunno

[wide thicket]

bro ur like 18

you haven’t even lived

[hidden heart]

you’d be surprised

[wide thicket]

so ur not 18?

[hidden heart]

nope

[mystic meteor]

12. child prodigy.

[hidden heart]

i’m 6

[mystic meteor]

i like how it formats that as a list item

[sly yacht]

U on rn? @mystic meteor

Nvm I gtg

[mystic meteor]

oh

💀

[rich mist]

how did you guys motivate urselves to do the brown video

[vestal lava]

just do it

if you wait for the motivation to turn up you’ll never end up doing it

[frank sequoia]

I am not even planning to do it

I started thinking of brown like what 5 days ago

there is no way I can do it

[rich mist]

are you applying to the entirety of the t20

[frank sequoia]

no

[rich mist]

i swear ive seen u in every channel

[vestal lava]

dark Brandon tell me a story

[frank sequoia]

Princeton, Stanford, Brown, Berkeley, LA, Cornell

all of them

[vestal lava]

can you even afford berkely and la

[frank sequoia]

nothing else

[vestal lava]

they don’t give aid to intl

[frank sequoia]

I can afford it

[vestal lava]

Ok

[rich mist]

i have no stories

[frank sequoia]

to be fair for ivies I am not even trying to get aid because it is impossible

I am expecting $20,000 a year and my family s okay with that

[rich mist]

ivies are like 80

[vestal lava]

ivies are like 60k bro

[frank sequoia]

thats the tuition

[rugged geyser]

80 for COA

[vestal lava]

without any aid

[frank sequoia]

we live

we eat stuff

we do stuff around the city

[vestal lava]

huh

[frank sequoia]

imagine NEVER going off the campus, thats 60k

[rich mist]

luck did u apply to brown

[rugged geyser]

not even

[vestal lava]

unfortunately i did not

[rugged geyser]

housing + fees

[rich mist]

its like 80 with room and board

[rugged geyser]

• food

yea

[vestal lava]

60k is just the tuition alone

[rich mist]

i honestly dont anticipate i'll ever go to brown so i'm not even sure if its worth it to do the video

[vestal lava]

and most places rehire you to live on campus i think

[vestal lava]

wait

didn’t you apply to stanford or smth

[rugged geyser]

its nt

[rich mist]

yes

[rugged geyser]

he got deferred

[rich mist]

deferred

[frank sequoia]

same

[vestal lava]

why 3A then

mf lisr

[frank sequoia]

wait you are in the other server right

[rich mist]

safeties

[rugged geyser]

@rich mist dont do the video

[vestal lava]

o

[rugged geyser]

ur not going to brown..

[rich mist]

yes

[vestal lava]

video isn’t mandatory per say but helps potentially

[rugged geyser]

luck u seem like a creative writing or philosophy major

[rich mist]

intel probably isnt going to brown either

[frank sequoia]

I am physics and I don't think a video would that help considering my research is a bit confidential, they don't allow filming except a little part

[vestal lava]

i am!

[rich mist]

i predict he'll get into a t10

[frank sequoia]

Brown is a t10 though

for 10 years at least!

[rugged geyser]

my penn loci is gonna be so fire

[rich mist]

yes

[rugged geyser]

i need to email my AO oops

[rich mist]

well my prediction was right

[vestal lava]

i spend too much time here

gotta delete discord

[frank sequoia]

wait so where are you in

[rich mist]

me too but i became a mod

[frank sequoia]

your colors are that of a college student

[vestal lava]

i go to brown

freshman

[frank sequoia]

oh

well that's a

[rugged geyser]

hes lying

[frank sequoia]

yeah

pretend I never asked

[rich mist]

dont trust anything he says

[frank sequoia]

where is he

[vestal lava]

😐

i go to harvard

freshman

[rugged geyser]

hes a harvard man

[frank sequoia]

can someone else verify it

[vestal lava]

😐😐😐😐

[frank sequoia]

wait actually

that's

[rugged geyser]

yeah

[frank sequoia]

well I don't like harvard

[vestal lava]

Am i not a trustable person?

[rugged geyser]

no

[frank sequoia]

I would prefer brown to harvard in a heartbeat

you care, that's why you are responding to stuff

if you actually don't care you say nothin';

eh

fair nuf

[rich mist]

ok we dont need to do this

[frank sequoia]

ok

but seriously how needed is video portfolio

[vestal lava]

people get in without it

[vestal lava]

I take it back, i do care

i will keep the brown chat positive

[frank sequoia]

thx

sorry for what I said if you don't like it

[vestal lava]

nah you’re chilling

[frank sequoia]

and sorry for the typo ahhhhhh

😭

[vestal lava]

ya I definitely gotta delete discord

[frank sequoia]

I probably will at somepoint in college as well

been spending too much time here procrastinating essays rather than writing them

[mystic meteor]

i hate leaguef of legends

[frank sequoia]

I hate it too

ppl are so good at it and I am so bad

[hidden heart]

funniest comment i’ve seen today

[mystic meteor]

oh

that is truly a cackle-inducer

💀

[hidden heart]

what am i then

a math major?

[frank sequoia]

r/rareinsults or r/rarecompliments

[hidden heart]

insult

to both of you

obviously

[vestal lava]

Go to sleep sylvia

[hidden heart]

why

[vestal lava]

idk

I just like saying that

[hidden heart]

i will soon

my body is collapsing on me

[vestal lava]

what are you writing

[hidden heart]

a poem-prose project

i have no idea what i'm doing tbh

sneak peek

[vestal lava]

oh is this the shit you’re gonna hide

[hidden heart]

not really i have no time or courage to do that

[vestal lava]

rip

[hidden heart]

potentially someone else can hide it

i'd honestly hide it on harvard campus

in harvard libraries

[vestal lava]

i would look for them

I have nothing better to do anyways

im so bored

tell me a story @hidden heart

[hidden heart]

hmm

do you wanna read one instead

[vestal lava]

did you write it

[hidden heart]

yes

actually meh i'm not that fond of the writing style now

[vestal lava]

sure then

[hidden heart]

lemme find something

this is pure cringe

from last year

that i wrote about two other people

[vestal lava]

is it based on a true story

[hidden heart]

yes

[vestal lava]

interesting

i will read this

thank you Sylvia

[hidden heart]

you're welcome!

feel free to shit on it

[vestal lava]

i don’t do that

[mystic meteor]

doubt

[hidden heart]

it's not the best writing tbh

[mystic meteor]

Unacceptable. F-.

[hidden heart]

true

[mystic meteor]

how was ur college app arc

if i may ask

[hidden heart]

rea yale reject

ed2 chicago reject

[mystic meteor]

[rugged geyser]

[hidden heart]

waitlisted by nyu

[hidden heart]

unfortunately not this one yet, but my major project that came after this was

[mystic meteor]

holy shit

i am scared now

[hidden heart]

nyu and brandeis are definitely yield protection

but then march 29th emory accepted for both emory and oxford

everyone else was like you're so set

t20 basically

i didn't want to give up and stayed pretty unamused and quiet about it

[rugged geyser]

goes to show u can be rejected by pretty much everywhere but get into an ivy!

[vestal lava]

do you still think about her @hidden heart

[hidden heart]

it's not about me smh

i wrote it about a friend who told me this whole story

[vestal lava]

i see

[hidden heart]

i was the friend in the story

[vestal lava]

i see

[hidden heart]

anyway come ivy day it was waitlist columbia accept brown waitlist upenn

how'd you dislike it

[vestal lava]

I have never experienced feelings like that but it was very interesting and i liked it

[wide thicket]

[hidden heart]

not really but thank you 😭

i pride my more recent writings a lot more

[wide thicket]

this is fan behavior

[rugged geyser]

no its just i had a very similar thing

[wide thicket]

when you see me in person give me money

[vestal lava]

im broke

[hidden heart]

oh yeah you'd be able to relate very much then

[vestal lava]

i need money

[hidden heart]

i did a poor job on the situation tbh and way too self-absorbed with narration

[rugged geyser]

im sure ur newer writing reads much better but the content is 🥹

[wide thicket]

you are a CS major you will be fine give it 4 years

[vestal lava]

well I have money already

[rugged geyser]

i thought he was a philosophy major

[vestal lava]

but i need more

[hidden heart]

💀

[rugged geyser]

there r cs kids at harvard?!

[hidden heart]

there are FAR too many cs kids

[vestal lava]

they’re everywhere

[hidden heart]

this is a lot funnier

[vestal lava]

why do you keep changing your name

[hidden heart]

i'm feeling indecisive and random today

[vestal lava]

send more readings

wow you changed your name back

i guess i do have an effect on people

[hidden heart]

lmfao

i guess you do

[hidden heart]

what type do you want

[wide thicket]

sylvia x luck friendship arc

[hidden heart]

most of my projects are incomplete

[vestal lava]

i will read anything at this point

[wide thicket]

the man is bored

[hidden heart]

do you want me to torture you with my bible

[wide thicket]

luck you could try to sleep before 1 AM

[vestal lava]

go for it

[hidden heart]

as well as the philosophical breakdown of it

[vestal lava]

that’s boring

[hidden heart]

wait no

this is for both of you

[wide thicket]

sleeping for 7 hours gets you better skin

did you know that

[wide thicket]

what happened to being a man who takes care of urself

[hidden heart]

luck this is very boring philosophy

[vestal lava]

i have been sleeping for 8-9 hours since coming home

[hidden heart]

cat this is reading YOU SHOULDVE DONE

[vestal lava]

im making up for the hours lost day by day

[wide thicket]

bro WHAT is this

who is sextus

why is he called that

[hidden heart]

....

......................

[wide thicket]

IM SO CONFUSED

[vestal lava]

thanks bro i will read this gimme an hour

[hidden heart]

bro didn't see the last question on the exam

[wide thicket]

IS HE REAL

[hidden heart]

don't actually read it

it's boring

[wide thicket]

the 3 pointer?????

imso confuse

[hidden heart]

no

sextus empiricus

[wide thicket]

the swan one?

WHO?

[hidden heart]

...

bitch got an A and i didn't

[wide thicket]

wait in Extra credit?

[hidden heart]

no

question 7 of section 2

[wide thicket]

i did not JUST get an a i got 100

[vestal lava]

it’s too high level for me

[wide thicket]

OHHHHHH

THE SKEPTICS????

[vestal lava]

i need something simple english

[wide thicket]

I WROTE AN ANSWER ON THAT

😭😭😭

i wrote 2 pages on that

i don’t remember the names of people

so i forgor

[hidden heart]

it's not worth

[wide thicket]

the sceptics are kinda boring

easy to write about

[vestal lava]

When we say that the sceptic does not dogmatize we are using the term "dogma" in the sense according to which, as some say, dogma is the assent to something non-evident investigated by the sciences, for a Pyrrhonist never assents to anything non-evident.

like I don’t even know what this is saying

[wide thicket]

how did you copy paste it

also luck what does the word dogma mean

[vestal lava]

i don’t know

WAIT

[wide thicket]

he’s so cute

[vestal lava]

WAIT

[hidden heart]

basically anything that's not empirical we don't use as evidence

[vestal lava]

I do know

[wide thicket]

oh

[vestal lava]

The central dogma of life

DNA -> RNA -> Protein

[hidden heart]

💀

[wide thicket]

is this from ur gened course

[vestal lava]

YES

[wide thicket]

ALSO this skips so much

protein synthesis, translation

[vestal lava]

dna gets transcribe to rna and rna gets translated to proteins

[wide thicket]

transcription

[vestal lava]

yes test yes

im a genius

[wide thicket]

yeah…

@hidden heart yk he got the highest score

in his class

at HARVARD?

[vestal lava]

it was an easy test bruh

everyone did good

I told you this already

[hidden heart]

why does harvard matter

and good job luck

well deserved!

[vestal lava]

thanks

[hidden heart]

do you still want something to read

poetry or prose

[vestal lava]

yes

whichever one is cooler

I don’t know what prose is

[hidden heart]

basically just literary writing

[vestal lava]

Is it just short poetry

[hidden heart]

in paragraph form

while poetry is looser

[vestal lava]

hmmm

send me poetry

[hidden heart]

as you wish

[wide thicket]

prose is just writing

fancy word creative writers made up

ok goodnight guys <3

[vestal lava]

so early

good night cat

[wide thicket]

yeah im gonna try to wake up before 10 so i don’t feel like i wasted my day

[wide thicket]

baiii <3

[vestal lava]

later

[hidden heart]

goodnight cat

removed my favorite poem series from it rn but in the future might show people it if they're interested

[vestal lava]

so you removed the best part and gave it to me

bruh

[hidden heart]

SORRY

i can send it in a separate doc if you really want to see it

[vestal lava]

mmmm

[hidden heart]

but idk it feels too personal

[vestal lava]

it’s ok

[hidden heart]

like i literally wept my heart out for writing it

sorry :/

[vestal lava]

nah you’re good

[hidden heart]

the other poems are more fun tbh

according to grammarly i have made 247 grammartical errors in the full document

i think that's a win

[rugged geyser]

sylvia did u submit a creative writing portfolio..

[vestal lava]

i prob can’t even spot them anyways so you’re chiling

[hidden heart]

i indicated to columbia i was gonna submit one and just never did

i think that's why they waitlisted me 💀

brown doesn't accept creative writing portfoliios do they

[hidden heart]

oh they're all intentional

grammarly just doesn't like non-proper english

i invented at least 5 words here

[hidden heart]

yeah brown only takes music and art

i did music

[rugged geyser]

what music

[hidden heart]

piano

[rugged geyser]

oh!

[rugged geyser]

real

[hidden heart]

i know

[rugged geyser]

what major do u wanna do

[hidden heart]

[hidden heart]

[rugged geyser]

[rugged geyser]

phil

[hidden heart]

LMFAO

[rugged geyser]

avg asian!

[hidden heart]

nah you're right

i'm literary arts + philosophy

were you the one who said Luck gives creative writing philosophy vibes

oh it was you

HAHAHA

[rugged geyser]

YES

i could not have guessed

he was a cs major

[hidden heart]

he's cooler than your average cs major

but also cs enough to spend too much time here

[rugged geyser]

thats the vibe

[hidden heart]

yup

are you potentially either literary arts or philosophy?

[vestal lava]

he applied to upenn ed

guess his major

[hidden heart]

hmmmm

lemme guess

[vestal lava]

and why are you thinking finance?

[hidden heart]

gender studies + africana

[vestal lava]

o

[rugged geyser]

ITS NOT finance

[hidden heart]

econ math

[fiery night]

Luck are you going to transfer to brown

[vestal lava]

yeah

[rugged geyser]

see i love this stuff which is why i kinda fuck w the core

[hidden heart]

ruby are you going to come to brown

[vestal lava]

brown doesn’t have core tho

[rugged geyser]

[fiery night]

I was actually just working on my brown supps 😁

They’re super hard though

[fiery night]

Isn’t everyone

[hidden heart]

better with open curriculum tbh

[hidden heart]

nope

[vestal lava]

Nah, the people who get all ivies know what they’re doing

[hidden heart]

not always tbh

[fiery night]

I’m lowkey super stressed though bc health is deteriorating real bad + deadline is soon and need to finish harvard unfortunately (mom wants me to apply and she hasn’t let me lived down the fact I didn’t do the 2 other things she wanted in life) + not at home

[hidden heart]

usually when that happens it's either their achievements are too desirable or they're a surprising character

[hidden heart]

OKAY FIRST ARE YOU SLEEPING AND HYDRATING ENOUGH

please sleep and hydrate

and eat

[fiery night]

True

[vestal lava]

hmmmmmm i could maybe potentially might actually help you if this is the case

[hidden heart]

Luck can help you with harvard

[fiery night]

No and yes dw I’m drinking sm water

[hidden heart]

i can help with brown

[vestal lava]

harvard is hard bro

[hidden heart]

I'm worried about your sleep schedule

[vestal lava]

they switched all their prompts

[fiery night]

This is slightly difficult but I’m trying trust

[hidden heart]

easier than brown this year

actually wait harvard prompts are similar to brown last year isn't it

[hidden heart]

good!

[fiery night]

Honestly would appreciate it once I finish my drafts

[vestal lava]

shit now I’m guilt trapped into helping

[hidden heart]

https://tenor.com/view/dj-khaled-meme-congrats-you-played-yourself-gif-8383916

[fiery night]

Omg I am so grateful

[hidden heart]

[fiery night]

[vestal lava]

I basically copy pasted all my harvard supps to my other schools anyways, worked fine for me 😵‍💫

[fiery night]

Ok but I do care 😭 don’t want to do anything less than my best

[hidden heart]

i think my body collapsed on me after a month of not treating myself well and sleeping at 4 to work on hardcore projects

[vestal lava]

bro

merry pre-christmas to those who celebrate

[vestal lava]

🤔

do you ever sleep?

[mystic meteor]

🤨

no not really

i'm permanently on discord

[vestal lava]

interesting

i have noticed that

[mystic meteor]

i'm sleeping early this break though

bc i have swimming every morning at 9

[vestal lava]

so, 4 am instead of 5 am?

[mystic meteor]

no like 2-3 am

instead of 5 am

[vestal lava]

[mystic meteor]

idk why i do that anyway

since i do 5 am -> school + swimming

vs 2 am -> just swimming

should be other way around

🐸

[vestal lava]

4 hr sleep

wow

[mystic meteor]

im lowkey only doing this sport because i love my teammates

and the team is very gay ngl

it's kind of funny

[vestal lava]

it may not be soap

[mystic meteor]

we will see

[vestal lava]

might be milk

[vestal lava]

[vestal lava]

https://tenor.com/view/he-just-like-me-fr-gif-25075803

[mystic meteor]

the sound of water is really pretty

that's the only reason i started swimming

i quickly realized this sport is ass

motherfuckers fr waking up at like 5 to hop into a freezing pool and suffer for 2 hours

like ?

good job you definitely have a lot of friends for that one

[vestal lava]

i mean swimming is a useful skill at least

[mystic meteor]

actually you probably do because of trauma bonding

[vestal lava]

[vestal lava]

[mystic meteor]

[vestal lava]

all roads lead to me

[mystic meteor]

🤨

[sly yacht]

I refuse to believe u did this

Def lying

[sly yacht]

U don’t touch grass

[steep wasp]

im actually so in love w brown

kill me now.

[steep wasp]

@hidden heart @wide thicket what would you say brown values most during admissions? essays, video, ecs, personality, intellectual curiosity or-?

[frank sequoia]

omg same

[hidden heart]

definitely not video, ECs are important for basis, but i’m pretty sure success comes from essays which demonstrate your personality and intellectual curiosity

and your LORs from teachers should verify it

also y’all

please don’t randomly send me message requests telling me that you’ve finished all your supps and you want me to help if you have never spoken here and we’ve never had a conversation 😭

I’m willing to help but i can’t just do that for anyone so randomly 💀 please don’t use me as a college admission tool

[little snow]

😠 wdym u cant just dm people and expect them to help SMH

[hidden heart]

😔😔

[steep wasp]

^ yeah like why are you on a2c huh 🙄 if college people are on a2c it obviously means they're open to help!! (average a2c high schooler who doesn't know about village be like-)

[steep wasp]

alright thank you!!

[vestal lava]

It’s true lol, you don’t even know me

[vestal lava]

I do

[hidden heart]

i’m not helpful i’m very useless idk why brown accepted me 😔

[steep wasp]

you're literally sylvia plath the best poet of all time idk what you're on

[wide thicket]

haii

i would personally say personality

but i genuinely think it’s all important

so probably essays and video

ive met a lot of people who got in without the video but i truly think a good video can save your application

because it’s the only time an admissions officer actually gets to see you in person, and who you are and what you actually stand for

i think the video is a really good gauge of how genuine a person is in their ‘applicant persona’ that they reflected in their essays and such

[hidden heart]

not really about this part imo

[wide thicket]

also another note at the many brown info sessions i went to they said ur grades are the most important part 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[wide thicket]

it’s my opinion

[hidden heart]

video doesn’t affect much remember

[wide thicket]

i think it matters

[hidden heart]

if you look at their cds it’s like the least important thing compared to all the necessary material

[wide thicket]

it can save an application

[hidden heart]

it matters but not nearly as much as the others

nope

[wide thicket]

it’s my opinion 😭

[hidden heart]

video won’t decide reject or accept at all

well i’m speaking in terms of stats

[wide thicket]

ok 👍🏼

[hidden heart]

their official stats

unless brown is lying to all applicants

[wide thicket]

👍🏼

[hidden heart]

this is true but for applicants please remember that grades are purely the basis

the fundamental layer of your application, if you only have this you won’t get accepted, but you can’t get accepted if you don’t have this

[wide thicket]

i did not know the application police would be on me 4 seconds after I wrote my message goddamn

[hidden heart]

L moment

[wide thicket]

💀

[hidden heart]

i just happen to be leaving nyc

and am on a car ride

[wide thicket]

okk bai

[hidden heart]

byebye

you didn’t even invite me out for coffee

bad host

[wide thicket]

i have things to do 💔 like rot in my room

[hidden heart]

valid

i’d choose that too

[wide thicket]

exactly

[hidden heart]

doesn’t mean it’s a good decision

i am known for bad decisions

[wide thicket]

yup same 👍🏼

[steep wasp]

can i show you my video lol

[wide thicket]

YES!!!!!

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE

it would be an honor

[steep wasp]

omg slay??

dming

[hidden heart]

I can attest to this

[wide thicket]

<3333

[wide thicket]

gimme some time to watch it if that’s okay, i need to finish a few things first :]

i LOVE watching peoples brown videos they’re always saur cute

[steep wasp]

YEP YEP OFC

[frank sequoia]

my essays are fire, thats good

well how about the fact that no video would augment my app because I was confidently planning everything without it

ahh its okay

back to the other supps see ya tomorrow

[lament moat]

[frank sequoia]

and happy holidays or merry christmas, thats the last message I gotta go to sleep

[hidden heart]

perfect

[floral gull]

what gpa would count as a base? Is a 3.9+ alright or should it be more likre 3.95+?

[vestal lava]

the difference here is trivial

3.9+ is fine

[floral gull]

ye i'm sweating the details, i have a 3.9+ but it's one C and two Bs

living life on the edge

[vestal lava]

unweighted, right?

i dont think the reason for a rejection would be your GPA

[floral gull]

yeah actually I just realized does brown do weighted gpas?

I'm sure the AOs look at like course rigor by year but idk if they got their own weighting system for each class that they numerically calculate

[vestal lava]

I believe they recalculate your GPA with their own standards

either way i think you’re fine

[mystic meteor]

another day another league grind

[rich mist]

my unweighted is 3.7

ball state is calling

[wide thicket]

3.7 is good

👍🏼

[lament moat]

lurking and

[vestal lava]

[lament moat]
