Fellas I did a tarot reading for myself and Iāll be rejected by 3 schools on ivy day. I only applied to 2 ivies (Cornell and Princeton) and apparently Berkeley is coming out that day as well
Yippee

how do u do this
I own a deck of tarot cards
Nah lol
how do u translate the results to acceptances/rejections though
I asked how many rejections I would get on ivy day. I think I pulled out 3 of cups š
This some stats shit haha Iāll ask again tonight
At night it looks like something from a horror movie
yuhhh take the average
one data point isnt enough
Same
If my interviewer hasnāt contacted me by now what should I do?
depends on how long
if its really long call the admissions office
or email ur regional ao
Google it, itās available
hey chat what should I wear for my Princeton interview
clothes
Something orange?
The only orange stuff I have is burnt orange for Texas UT Austin š
What should you wear for an online interview?
casual
buisness casual
you dont even need to dress up too much
i legit wore normal clothes to my virtual interviews
dont over think it, again
I wore an Oxford shirt and sweatpants
I wore a quarter zip and khakis
update: My interview went amazing !
slayyy
how long did it take
well he was a surgeon I met him at the hospital in his suite so we only had like an hour we wanted to keep talking but they told him he needed to go cause a patient was waiting š
is there a deadline for the interview
lmao thank you. Stressing a bit too much
Literally your normal everday clothes lmao
Is it possible to ask for an interview?(I know that you don't ask for them, but I still don't know why I didn't get one)
(I still didn't get invitation:()
no
i pretended to have the barest fashion sense for my interview
but like if you feel like wearing a hoodie and jeans who's gonna get mad at you
quick upload talking about this, admissions are more cutthroat than ever and it's making it worse for everyone. don't feed into it. life is more than college. please, take this warning seriously for your sake, and let's stop contributing to the toxicity because it has further reaching consequences than you realize.
wdyt guys
I watched that right after my Princeton interview yesterday and I was like welp š
i think there is some truth to that video
i mean princeton is a cutthroat school with grade deflation so im not surprised
If you haven't received an interview request by now as an international student, does this mean you got rejected or are they still sending interview requests?
I donāt think itās really the academics that heās talking about
Like yes classes are hard but from my experience people are not competitive/cutthroat at all, but rather very collaborative
That being said the social scene here can be a little wacky, which I think heās more referring to
The tough classes can contribute to these issues but I think the social scene is the root cause
what i heard is basically that to succeed socially you need to be socially cutthroat
I just watched some of his vids now and was like what
as someone who is applying to all schools for cs and seeing so many t10 schools kids miserable at their school Iām debating if I even go if I somehow get in
im really thinking about going with UT Austin or UMich since I love and adore both schools alr
Yes and no
If your goal is clout/popularity/networking, then yes
But if you find the right people, you donāt have to
Depends on where youāre from ig. Some places just donāt have the capacity for interviews. If your from Germany, like me, you are for example more likely to receive an interview than an international student from (for example) Peru. They usually try to find an alumni close to you, my interviewer for example was from America but currently lives in Germany.
Do u think whatās the person in the vid is saying is a genuine concern or is he dramatizing things
Why is he so unhappy? Is it the people?⦠is the school cliquy like highschool
A little bit of both
He does make a lot of good points, but I think he overdramatizes the lack of āgood peopleā here
Iāve met a ton of amazing, kind, and intelligent people
Iāve also met a lot of people who are a little questionable
But at the end of the day itās up to you who you associate with
If you want to join the social rat race, then be ready to suffer the consequences
But I think heās also saying that itās easy to get sucked in
Is the school cliquy? my friend from high school who goes there told me that there is another level of entitlement at Princeton
Eh
Itās definitely better than high school
I think the athletes are a little entitled but besides that not too bad
OK as long as it is better than high school⦠Lol
Like yes people form friend groups but people are pretty kind for the most part
well I got deferred I shouldnāt be worried about this⦠Thanks for explaining @urban sinew
I also got deferred lol donāt give up yet
i think it might be random too. i live in asia yet my interviewer was in california
it is
Like my interviewer didnāt even take notes
(isn't it?)
So itās only for us to learn more about Princeton and has no impact on our chances of admission?
From how I understood it, interviews are kind of the tie breakers of college apps. They wonāt have a heavy impact on the initial decision, but if you tie with another applicant for the same spot, they usually consider the interviews. Every college is different though and idk how exactly Princeton handles it. But ultimately, interviews are not unimportant, just low impact.
i think itās very situational though. after watching videos of people looking at their admissions file, some peopleās interviews really increased their chances of admission.
iād imagine princeton is slightly different though bc they try to give all applicants interviews, i couldnāt imagine them allowing it to hurt you, solely off availability.
even my interviewer didnt seem like they were taking notes
mine said he had to write a report
so i think they just remember what they can
its def evaluative
mine took notes for a bit
only abt my basic information and to answer the question "tell me abt urself"
mine took a whole oage of notes so she can write the report easily
yh mine said it was evaluative and that she had to write an evaluation at the end.
notes seem to be a personal preference of interviewers
my harvard interviewer wrote like 4 and a half pages
isnt this also the role midyear grades play
as tiebreakers
both are subjective because with interviews each interviewer is different and with mid year grades each school is different
tbh I'd say most of college apps is not in your hand
if your AO/interviewer is just not in the right mood it could screw you over
So true
but i don't think they'd have a "tiebreaker" per say because even with two pretty similar apps there'd be obvious differences either through essays or interviews
Thank god my interviewer was in da mood
there is no way any two apps could have more than a 60% overlap
and thus there is no way you can be "choosing" between two apps
because the class sizes are variabke right? like if they wanted they'd just accept both
same :D but also can you really tell
Tell what
what mood they're in
Oh
and even if they were in a good mood during the interview what if their mood is ruined immediately after
before they write the report
it's really not in your control
yeah
luckily interviews are such a miniscule part of the application
actually? my interviewer said it was nonevaluative
and they just wrote a quick summary about you
*optional
yale hoodie
nah itās def evaluative
they score us you think?
idt it's evaluative
i think my interviewer said that before the interview started
that no matter what our interview gon be like it's not gonna change the decision much
that doesnāt mean itās no evaluative
bro wdym
the interviewer told me its non evaluative
well i guess we never know what goes behind the scenes
bro i got no talent and i still got in
talent ā sports, arts, etc
doesnt mean its evaluative
for example they could just write a summary of your convo
that AOs read
that would still count as "considered"
what is your definition of evaluative
That's not what evaluative means though
its how ive seen it referred to in this server most of the time
but yeah i guess that isnt the textbook definition
Yeah it's misleading
when i hear non-evaluative i think it's not considered at all
evaluative to me means that it's somehow considered in your admissions decision
^^ yeah thatās what I was meaning to say
princeton doesnāt use any scores at all tho afaik
how much are ap scores considered (not classes, just the score)
Or does that fall under standardized test scores š
Is it like how the subject tests were where like you need a 5 on calc bc
Or if you took the class but only got a 4 that would be detrimental
I think 4+ should be fine, you do want better scores in subjects that relate to your major tho
Like as a journalism major i have a 5 in English literature and us gov but 4 in stats
But if you're a stem major and have like a 3 in calc that might raise some eyebrows
Scores really donāt matter. I submitted two 3s, and one of them correlated to the my major and still got admitted šš
If they see a 5 on an ap test that correlates with your major, Iām sure thatāll help with your app though
yeah and thatās just a difficult topic bc some students schoolās (like mine) are just lacking and we donāt always make it through all the material
my ap world teacher was actually shit and didnāt teach at all and just gossip
i was left to fend for myself
and somehow i passed so im proud
I feel you, I just explained that in my additional info š
yuppp
i didnāt submit ap scores though
i wasnāt confident enough
W
which even that was low for school averages
As long as itās high for your school average, you should be chill
30 act: 27 M 27 Sci, 33 R, 31 E as a poli sci major, but i mean yeah thatās why i submitted it
our average is 17-19
our reading proficiency is 12% and math is like 7% šš
Oh yea youāre chilling fr
hopefully
i still got interviews as places known to pre screen like yale and harvard
so iām using that to keep myself hopeful š
It is fr
yeah scores are also heavily context dependent
ie what the average of your school is
like there was one guy in a2c who said he was the only one in his grade to pass apush
so that's very good
even if it's a 3
Do you know how they judge the rigor of your secondary school courses? In Germany everything is fairly standardized so for me it was impossible (literally) to have an above average courseload/ academic rigor
only 4 of us passed world i think
all 3s
then its okay
everything is looked at in context
bc if itās fairly standardized then it would be compared to the other german applicants
Thanks!
like my school doesnāt have APs or any course choice lol
Hi i had my countryās standardized curriculum and courseload w/o any additional testing except for sat and ielts and I can say that while they must have assessed it quite heavily keep your hopes up !! I got in rea
Got it
what was your sat and whats your major
Test optional computer science
fml
What lol
im 1490 and applied to cs
im finished
the seats are all gonna be taken by the most tryhard of cs majors i already know
kms
dont be so hard on urself
Woo another test opt
I am too but to spia
W
I have no cs background if that helps š
I dropped so hard in my midterms you have no idea
Went from a 44 predicted to under 40
Same here minus like one internship
lol
I had a 40% on my first sem final š
So your name LUCK checks out⦠Lol, test op, no ec for cs and got into Pton!!! I need some of that⦠š
Fr, you got it
Wait huh
dont say that
I genuinely wanna know bruh
š bruh
its rude and disrespectful
Bro
thatās crazy
U guys donāt think test opt no ecās getting in for cs is interesting?
And u donāt wanna know more?
Itās not unheard of
Like actually tho Iām sure they worked hard i just want to know what it is they did
princeton doesn't really accept by major
Either way
Test opt and no ecās is still crazy to get in with, Iām sure they had great grades and essays
they build diverse classes anyway so most schools are looking for cs majors with no experience anyway
luck has some insane ecs just not cs-related
Good to know
OH see the message was misleading
yeah luck is the goat
luck is Asian
they don't consider race anymore in admissions
it seems weird but most of the ivy admits that go to my school arenāt cracked anyway
well to some degree they do in the context of ur app
thats cuz social media made it easier for cracked applicants to stand out and now we have this image that you have to cure cancer to get in
Ok well I feel like Iām considered ācrackedā so it literally comes down to what? Essays? I didnāt write death threats ffs idk why Iām not gettin in anywhere
I mean Iām assuming the bulk of ur apps r RD
bcuz theres more qualified people than they have seats for
so it really comes down to arbitrary reasons beyond our control
YUP
the ā____ that got me into _____ā videos r so goofy to me
I totally love that !!!
Iām fucked for RD
Itās over
this is what gets me so anxious
I mean if you think youre cracked than you have a good shot at success regardless of if you go to an ivy or your flagship
the lack of control applicants have over their future
true but it feels somewhat validating to get into a school u love
yeah its really stressful knowing 4 years of your life could simply change after a 5 min reading of an application
Right I know that but how will the recruiters 5 years from now? How would they know I actually have been working hard since 9th grade and I just got screwed by colleges
Not to mention the resources and connections at ivies and other t20s
I feel you like I really would love to go to one of my dream schools but I have to prepare myself to go to one of my safeties
I want to go into startups which makes all these super important
theyre not as insane as you think
right, tbh I can convince myself to love a certain school but rn I just donāt have any options
Iāve seen the stats and I have family that went here šš even if itās purely anecdotal I see the difference between the cousins that went to t20s and state schools
Iām sure once I go to a school, Iāll get used to it
like most people think you need an ivy to break into IB or some other high finance job but most of those firms also recruit from baruch ( a cuny), fordham, and various sunys
I wonāt š
youd be surprised how little name brand actually matters
esp for like law or med school
well idk about law
I think itās the same principle tho?
Honestly, Iāll just be happy once I get my first acceptance from literally any college. The waiting process is just causing so much anxiety for me rn.
for law your law school ranking does matter but undergrad is wtv
Ok everyone says this then why do we have record applications for t20s and why does the ivy brand exist
social pressure or prestige I think lol
prestige
because of social media, movies/tv, and we still have the idea of the fact that elites went to ivys and that made them successful
but harvard didnt cause the kennedys to become what they are
never have I ever continuing that message
it's definitely more about the quality of the students than it is where they go
but society has put top schools on a pedestal so the talented ppl end up grouping together
also, from my POV w immigrant parents, the gaokao and higher education truly was the only way they escaped poverty (even tho that isnāt necessarily the case in the US)
(china has ethnic quotas for college so idk why theyāre antagonistic towards aa but anyway š)
Itās the people that made the place. Without big names like that, the ivies wouldnāt be where they are today. I try to see it as a challenge, maybe someday someone will want to attend a college because I went there hahaha
EXACTLY
^^^^^^
people assume its the other way around when its not
ivies don't really guarantee you a lot anymore
i know plenty of ppl that are struggling to land jobs
Ok but all I know is that if RD goes horribly wrong and I end up at northeastern Iām never gonna forgive myself
neu is still a good school tho
The opportunities at ivies donāt match those at northeastern
I have a bunch of friends that go there
Iāve seen the LinkedInās
Are there any specific opportunities you are looking for? Because in the end, what matters most is what you make of the things you are given. I donāt doubt that youāll do that, but especially because of that I donāt think that youāll necessarily need an ivy league school to make it in this world
i feel like neu is on par with most state schools
thats literally my problem
icic
connections, guidance for startups / incubators, semi competitive student population
Iām freaking out too but thereās nothing I can do atp š it makes me sick fr
you just dont have startups coming out of uconn
or northeastern
but harvard? yes. cornell? yes
nah dude today has been so bad for a number of reasons
found out my "best friend" blocked me on everything bc she just sees me as competition and wants to hide as much as she can from me
my friend turned down cornell for our state school just bc of cost
help my best friend didnāt write my peer rec for Dartmouth for two months bc she said she didnāt want me to get in
(Not to my face but to a friend of a friend)
UR GONNA BE FIBR
FINE
it sucks knowing that wanting to go to a good college cost me friendships from really cool people, like im telling you if i was a dumbass she would love to be my friend
im so sorry that happened man but yea college admissions does this to ppl
ITS COST ME SM FRIENDSHIPS itās crazy, it makes me think Iām the problem
Senior year has been horrible
i cant wait to leave and find good friends in college
the thing is, I bet itās going to be even worse at top colleges
i used to think i was the problem too but
i think all of us are
like talking ab college on discord in your free time is crazy
but we chose this path
ok thatās true š
but this type of thing doesnāt get discussed at my school lol
heavy on crazy
yeah but i have a plan (im gonna be rlly stupid on the surface and make everyone think im a pity admit so no one sees me as a competitor)
LMAOO i wanna do that too
i think it would do us some benefit
I want to be mysterious
I feel like ur school is more competitive
eww what thatās crazy
like so what š mind ur own business
LOL
and then he goes "mcgill is columbia level" knowing fully i got rejected ED
ALL OF THIS HAPPENED TODAY
Iāll be honest itās not š
This mondset >>
i didnt endure 4 years of this for northeastern.
yeah Iām worried about peopleās reactions/perceptions of me once I commit
the northeastern hate š
i dont even want to post on the page for my schools commits
im so over it dude
like today i fr thought about RUNNING AWAY
none of the early ivy commits have posted
to TEXAS
and have some republican with an illegal gun shoot me
oh yeah none of mine did either
today was actually like crazy
yeah that sucks to see ppp youāve known for four years turn like this
i wasnt TRYING to be rude ab luck earlier ive just had enough of it
nahh i moved to this school in junior year
yeah dw, i get it now
the process seems so irrational at times
thats why half the grade hates me cuz i knocked someone whos been here for 4 years out of top 10
yikes thatās arguably worse right
yes
i made top 10, NHS president, SNHS president AND first ever person from my school to go to ISEF
you tell them ā¼ļøā¼ļø
congrats btw
i would....if i actually got in anywhere good
I have a feeling you will
i dont lmfao
yeah whenever ppl say that to me I donāt believe them š
i have a lot of evil eye shit going around
šØ
nah but didnt i connect with u on linkedin? youll defff get at least 1 t20 (tryna be realistic cuz nothings guaranteed but im impressed)
my flaw is that im test optional !
dude I mean so will you from what Iāve seen š
nah
keeping my expectations low
and also accepting that im neu '28
thats why im pissed
bc it feels like im being forced to settle
I want to go into a month long coma and just wake up in time for decisions LOL
OMG THATS IT this is how ive been feeling and ive just now put it into words
did u apply to any low reaches?
or targets
idk BU maybe?
would u be happy there
northeastern was my target and i knew i would get in so i just shotgunned reaches
compared to neu
i can tell you with 100% confidence that i could go to harvard and not be happy
oh fr?
i think im missing something beyond the college apps here
yeah id be like
why did i not apply to stanford !! thats where i want to go!!
so atp its like
ill be unhappy anywhere
I mean I feel like that would melt away at admissions day yk
so why not be unhappy at a place that gives me to most opportunities
like actually visualizing urself there rather than the idea of it
nah this has been going on since 6th grade
well yeah, itās always been a dream
idk give me purpose
Iām so so sorry to hear that
itās alright, thatās what I use this server for
its been the actual worst month of my life
no judgement I promise
2024 has been so horrible
I feel that thru and thru
AW thank you for being nice (not expecting this from a2c kids)
literally
nah itās ok bc I feel the same way š
yeah this is the part that will suck most
at least now i know its not the colleges making me unhappy so ill prob go work on that
true I feel like the excitement of getting into my ādreamā colleges will fade after an hour
well maybe not an hour
i give it a week max š
i think at least a couple weeks after actually being there
like the first few weeks must be so fun yk
true I think Iāll get hype again once the school year starts
yeahhhh
Didnt blud just say she was happy to attend neu and didnt care about prestige lmfaooooo šš
Bros acc out of touch with reality 
Texas hate is insane bruh
Shits more liberal in some areas than the northeast
We are legit more civilized and advanced than your random rural towns up there chill out
āSome areasā
Austin is one of the largest growing tech capitals in the nation
Dallas is sought after by many companies
Houston is crazy too
Alright clemson kid
that was before todays events
if ur gonna read the chat read the whole thing
bro took away āTexas is crazyā from that conversation š
exactly
i was talking about wanting someone to shoot me and he only cares ab the texas part of it
kinda funnt tbh
Bros a d1 yapper i had to skim
Ill still find a way to shit on that school
Hating is a lifestyle
One thing u gotta realize is no one gives a fuck abt college acceptances literally in 2 months
Like who cares what other ppl think
Once ur in college ur in
And ur the one who has to go there for 4 years
Make it better
Life doesnāt have to revolve around this waiting
Go enjoy life
itd be nice to have ppl say congrats to me before i graduate ? its not like im a slacker expecting things i actually grinded and want some sort of recognition
my parents are mad at my brother and kinda shut everything down at our house i cant even watch tb lmao
That sucks, could you go for walks or smth?
I live in CT and itās pretty cold rn but in a couple weeks yeah!
I just wish I could sleep for the next month
oh ok. well you can do many different things like read, work out at home, hang out with friends, etc
Basing your happiness off of external validation is asking to be disappointed
I feel this, but itās ok! it will be over soon
Too late
Easy as pie!
It takes time, ofc. But it also takes work and not dismissing those feelings
Maybe I can but itāll come right back on March 28th
I think Iāve repressed these emotions for so long and thatās why itās hard to process them now
Then work to make that blow lesser so that you arenāt as affected
I was on auto pilot for the last 3 years with nothing on my mind but college
you really have to understand that these same people you most likely wonāt see after high school. Even if you donāt end up at a school you were hoping to attend, you really should release that in the grand scheme of things, their opinions donāt matter. Say congrats to yourself
bc others opinions and validation shouldnāt matter. You should feel happy that youāve accomplished so much because if people even say congrats that still wonāt solve the actual issue at hand (you feeling as though you need those people to acknowledge you)
Youāll be happier when you donāt care about others
I could be your angle,,,, or your devel ššššš
Yeah you guys are definitely right. It truly is unpredictable if your profile will stick with them or not
Guess Iāll just worry about my exams for the next month instead
The time will pass anyway
He had insane essays
Like 10/10 and hooked
But essays šš
Ehh u dont rlly need an elite school it helps but itās not necessary
For funding ig
No offense u kinda rlly do its very difficult from those schools they send very very very little people
Baruch is decent quant but u need a good school to break into IB, itās doable w/on but very very slim
Yea fr them Indians gonna go crazy with startups
This entire chat is so soft šš
No one here gaf where they went in 5 years
Fr
If it doesnāt matter why does college confidential / a2c / this server exist?
And why do so many ppl use time
Itās kinda annoying when ppl who use their free time talking ab college start claiming it doesnāt matter ⦠at least im owning up to it
college confidental is a bunch of grown ass parents yapping
a2c is helpful and a good resource
u dont need to be sweaty to be on it
well im done with all this college talk by 5/1 and i do admit that im on here whenever im free but that wasnt my point tho
after u know where ur going ur just gonna have to accept it and work hard
Yes AFTER
Iāve had a particularly horrible day which made me contemplate my chances and my overall choices / future so why do u feel the need to tell my that it doesnāt matter when itās stressing me out in the moment
š no way bruh
??
there are normal ppl here
most ppl here has imposter syndrome
True but it doesnāt mean there still are ppl like that
those ppl are a very small slice of the pie
I had decent ECs, just not cs related lol. The ivies donāt admit by major since technically you donāt even pick your major til after a year or two of attending the school, which helped me get in imo
Lava more Goated fr
Lmao thanks Hawk. I personally think I had a pretty unique background so it definitely helps lol
My humble king so humble as usual šš
Not humble, just honest š” youāre more stacked than me
a2c is an amazing place to make drake jokes

i tried multiple times but i never drew another number card again
its always something silly like the king of pentacles or sth
Try more š
okey dokey
you're the king of college apps frfr
frfr
are princeton interviews evaluative
Yeah, I believe so
Theyāre evaluative
They are
every school who does interviews has that on the cds
doesn't necessarily mean they are evaluative
if theyāre considered, theyāre evaluative
it might add something to your application but it wouldn't be much to make or break the entire thing.
yes
so, evaluative
also, no one component will make or break ur app in general

/j
What is up with new jersey honestly

And boring (?)
But is it that bad

Yea, the best state
Itās because Iām going there
The prince of Kuwait is a student at pton
Wtfff
Ye heās class of 2025 for pton
It has been in march a couple of times lol
Princeton upperclassmen that I was talking to
this is so funny lmfaoo
yo deferred peeps did ur deferred letter also get removed from portal (not on sum portal astrology shit i swear)
yea it did
weird
prob means nothing tho
no point having it take up space there anyways
Isn't the prince of Jordan currently at Georgetown lol
What does it mean if an AO at Princeton viewed my LinkedIn
Were they just trying to verify me?
how u know abt this lmaoo
not you got linkedin premium
linkedn premium or wtv
1 hr to nyc though
and you get to travel through princeton junction at west windsor š©
Oh i thought they always say
noo I had normal then and saw they worked at Princeton admissions
The dinky
soo
premium is a scale
Scam
I am very anti being a LinkedIn influencer so I would never need it
Me too
some people Iām connected to post ALL THE TIME and I wanna just remove my connection with them
Linkedin is more toxic than ig now lol
Since its valid to flex there
Achievement standards
So true
I canāt get myself to flex there
Iām scared of evil eye
š
I never posted anything
i just ignore my linkedin fr
And I think itās a bit arrogant
I saw some ppl even posting college decision letters
SAME
I would never
You put evil eye on me š¤¦āāļø SMHš”/j
Literally
ššš
Someone i know posted their acceptances in their activities and societies spot
š
damn š
LinkedIn scare mes
Putting all my info online for any creep to stalk me when they get my full name
Where I went to university, where I work, š
the full history and everything š
Resume too š
Until I need it itās a huge no š
fr
i hope i never need it
never gonna make an account
Nah I will
Iāll just have to trust the benevolence if the internet
might make a burner to be the stalker instead of the stalked
If not I might end up on a YouTube āshe was killed through LinkedIn ā type video
STOP I KNOW SO MANY PEOPLE WHO DO THIS
š
š
what I do is Iām going to disable public visibility
cause nooo
Iāll do that too
š«£
I think the opportunity cost is better than worrying about stalking š
Maybe Iāll change my mind later who knows
How is it going for you btw
Life ig
I know Ramadan is approaching
super super stressed about decisions itās literally all I think about. Very excited for Ramadan! Maybe I wonāt think about decisions as much if Iām fasting š
what about you?
Too hungry to think about ivies š
fr š
I did that since college apps started
Trying to enjoy senior year and do nature shit
Lowered viewers and shit but do i care? No
It also feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders because weāre in March
Rip LinkedIn influencer era š
February was hell on earth š
Linkedinfluencer
nature is a W!
Ramadan in less than a week yippee
I agree, weāre so close
#overtimenopay
but I get more and more pessimistic about those decisions
Iām trying to hype myself up
Im joining the fast
Ill be upset even if I tell myself Iāll be rejected everywhere now š so im trying to hold on to my last bit of sanity
as you should!!
itās kinda fun, youāll like it
same š pre-cope
If I fell into precopeIād have been depressed since august because thatās when I really started thinking about this stuff
And whenever Iām close to moving on, the colleges reel me back in š
Oops
but I donāt know what Iād do if I got rejected by all of them š itās what I feel like Iāve been working for since hs started. Like getting into a good school would validate what Iāve gone through and how hard Iāve worked š
literally. I never really get sad much but thinking about decisions have me upset
Legit i felt this way too even though i alr had a target Iām satisfied with
I hâte that my safety makes me do housing deposit early
and these applications are having me wonder if I somehow made a new personality and joined a lot of ecās just for college. As if my main goal in life was to get in somewhere
I havenāt done it and I should but
But you had fun in them tho ?
I think mine does too? If not for priority. I just wanna look forward
Luckily I didnt experience any of this bcs I lack planning lol
too much fun ššš giggling over the jokes I made in my apps only to realize I may have joked too much
It shows how delusional I am because I think Iāll regret putting money on the housing deposit because RD will clutch š¤”
Valid mindset tbh
Idt its delusional
Enabling my tomfoolery
Its giving ambitious
Ong no you made me have terrible flashbacks
same šš no deposits until I get my decisions back
I put thĆ© wrong title of a pretty famous book š
oh š
But if RD doesnāt clutch then my housing could be cooked š
I hope AOās have humor
I Hope they just skimmed it š
I wrote solely academic stuff
š fr
Academic but not the ones I learn at school
hope it works out š«
You too fr
But if all else fails Iām sure you can find a way to convince your parents for UNC
they wonāt let me go guaranteed š every convo I have with them theyāre like nope go to ur state school
unless I get into an Ivy or equivalent Iām staying in my home state š
and I hate my state
Hope it all works out
You too š«¶š½š«¶š½
