Georgia Tech (GATech) (2023-2024)

[sacred gorge]

Tech tip: dont

Source: been here 3 years

[vital mortar]

😂

😭

tell me

I want to know the dangers

[exotic horizon]

THEYRE SUCH BAITERS

[crystal obsidian]

fr

[weary siren]

yall that email had me stressing

[spark gull]

Is there any benefit to committing early?

[weary siren]

if you live in georgia

[spark gull]

I’m oos

[weary siren]

committing early as in early action?

or like accepting the offer early

[spark gull]

I got in early and planning on committing now

Accepting offer yeah

[weary siren]

if you think georgia tech is ur best school u applied to then go for it

[spark gull]

I have other schools but like I’m not getting in lmao

[weary siren]

dont commit then

u never know

maybe youll get in

[spark gull]

Even if I get in gt is still really high for me because of cost location and everything like that

I’d consider the other schools just for the name more so

[weary siren]

well u should wait

but gt is a great choice anyways

[spark gull]

So I just wanna see do I get any benefit committing now instead of later

Yeah

Like with housing or smth

[weary siren]

i dont think there is any but im not sure

check the website

or talk to students there

[spark gull]

Alr thanks

[fallow oracle]

yes

the earlier you fill out the housing application, the earlier time ticket you get for june housing selection

most people that got in early action already did it though, so idk how much priority you will get if u commit now

[spark gull]

Oh damn

Alr thanks

I’ll think about it more ig

[vital mortar]

charge ur phone 😭

[exotic horizon]

bruh

[vital mortar]

Are u the Oakland guy

[exotic horizon]

nah i’m from socal

[vital mortar]

wait no that’s NEU number 1 opp

lmao

[exotic horizon]

lol

[vital mortar]

u guys are the antithesis of eachother

[kind ledge]

Welp

I forgot about this school tbh

[jolly relic]

Doesn’t sound fun

[thorn wagon]

i love being delusional and thinking that i can double major + a minor in college

i be thinking that i won't be struggling with one major already

but i can dream

[sonic pollen]

This is what I wanna do, but I feel like it’s stupid from what everyone is telling meeeeee

F it though, we ballin

[tawny valley]

That is one of the less delulu things in A2C tbf

[uncut iris]

one less delulu thing u could do is major + double minor

[whole token]

me when i am engineering, pre med and a math minor

[tacit plover]

Good luck!!

[whole token]

LOL

i want to get into here so bad help

[tacit plover]

I see you in like every thread 😭

[whole token]

i am valedictoriana dn the saluditorian got in and i need to avenge myself

[whole token]

LOL i know

[tacit plover]

You will get in fr

Trust

[whole token]

i hope

my mid year was ass

[tacit plover]

Oh

[whole token]

not terrible but def didnt make me look great

[tacit plover]

U got into unc right

[whole token]

yes

honors college

and northeastern

and tulane

[tacit plover]

Nice is that still ur top

Nice!

[whole token]

probably bc in state so cheaper

[tacit plover]

True

[whole token]

GT is only other school i would consider paying for

[tacit plover]

Yep

[whole token]

its like going to MIT for half the cost

still so expensive btu

but*

[tacit plover]

Much better than a private

[whole token]

definitely

did you apply to MIT

[tacit plover]

Depends on aid too but I get like no aid

[tacit plover]

No I was too lazy to do another whole app for a rejection 😭

[whole token]

LOL

you got into GT for CS tho

[tacit plover]

Yeah

[whole token]

r u going to consider stan if you get in

[tacit plover]

I got rejected ._.

I’ll consider CMU

Maybe

[whole token]

oh sorry i thought you got deferred

i got rejected as well

[tacit plover]

Yeah I wish

But eh it’s fine

[whole token]

GT is so great tho

[tacit plover]

Yeah I visited on Monday I loved it

[whole token]

only GT will hurt as much as stanford

[whole token]

omg thats fun yay

[tacit plover]

U got this

[whole token]

i hope i can go

r u from GA

[tacit plover]

Yeah I’m at Disney rn 😭

[tacit plover]

Nope I’m from Maryland

[whole token]

LOL

ooooo nice

r u on SB

[tacit plover]

Yup

[whole token]

lovely

kinda early

[subtle cosmos]

among the remaining decisions, GT is the only one we would consider paying for.

[tacit plover]

Cause I do de and my community college sb is early

[rain forge]

do we know the deferral rate for georgia tech (ea)

[hybrid barn]

20 percent

[violet fable]

thats admit rate after deferral

not deferral rate

[hybrid barn]

Alright I forgot then

[muted token]

no that's also deferral rate

like 20% got deferred

and ~20% of deferred get in

[hybrid barn]

Yeah fr

[subtle cosmos]

I don't know how you guys feel. tbh, the worst outcome on 3/22 is waitlisted. I prefer rejected to WL so that we can move on the next chapter.

[somber tinsel]

Wow

[trim mirage]

yes

also did they ever post in state rd results

*statistics

[soft dome]

What is oos acceptance rate for engineering

[worthy comet]

Anywhere from 9-12%

EA OOS was 9% so RD OOS will likely jump to 10%

[true compass]

Its not lower for rd?

[worthy comet]

i dont think so

[teal wedge]

that's so strange

[flat coyote]

Bet 🧢

[worthy comet]

People don’t get deferred

I swear I heard that EA 2 is the most selective pool… could be wrong

[cloud tiger]

Gatech my dream school 🐝

[subtle cosmos]

I think so too. It's known that oos is harder to get in to Tech than ga instate. My kid goes to a oos public HS that traditionally gets 10-15 gatech acceptance. Nobody in her AP Physics C class got admitted in EA2.

even the val got deferred.

most (in that Physics C class) got deferred in EA2 than got rejected.

[hardy pollen]

It’s 9% admit rate

For oos

Not including their competitive majors

Insane

Like it’s a fricking ivy

[subtle cosmos]

well, the tech engineering is better than any ivy

[hardy pollen]

Cornell

?

Princeton

[subtle cosmos]

Tech engineering is better than those 2

[hardy pollen]

I mean those r still top 10

And they have national prestige

But yeah techs amazing

[subtle cosmos]

maybe you are right. but we didn't care for any ivy

[hardy pollen]

Yea

Tech is living ivy for OOS

[subtle cosmos]

GA residents are so lucky to have Tech, especially for engineering students. We are debating whether to spend $50k/yr for Tech (pending admission)

[true compass]

50k/yr all in is pretty good deal. UVA instate all in is over 50k

[subtle cosmos]

agreed. If there are no other options, we will be more than happy to pay Tech $50k/yr. Arguably, better value than $41k Purdue.

[true compass]

GT has a great coop program so you can some good money

[toxic prism]

i got deferred 😞

[sour quiver]

its also in one of the biggest cities in the coutnry which is good for opportunite

[worthy comet]

People don’t get deferred in regular decision

That’s why the acceptance rate for RD is much different compared to EA

[toxic prism]

oh sorry thought u meant ea2 💀

[worthy comet]

Much more acceptances in RD but also more rejections

[toxic prism]

ah makes sense

man i hope i get into Gt

[worthy comet]

Yeah it’s crazy how selective EA2 was

[toxic prism]

favorite school and best value imo

[worthy comet]

And I can’t believe it’s 9%

[toxic prism]

yeah fr

[worthy comet]

Yes

[toxic prism]

did u commit officially?

[worthy comet]

Yes

[toxic prism]

congrats!

[worthy comet]

Thx

Unless I disappear or get arrested I’m going to GT in the fall

[toxic prism]

LMAO

very cool

[worthy comet]

1 week left I hope u get in

!!!

[toxic prism]

thank you!!!

me too i cant stand the wait 💀💀

[worthy comet]

Deferral to acceptance is selective but it’s around 20%

So better than RD numbers

[toxic prism]

ill try to view it positively

9% chance to 20%

[worthy comet]

It’s like you’re RD premium

[toxic prism]

lmaoo yeah exactly

did you visit campus

[true compass]

Good luck everyone!

[worthy comet]

Two years ago and next week

[toxic prism]

oo nice have fun

it was one of my favorites

i mean design wise its like most but i felt like people wise yoy could sense the focus

on like building things

like all the makerspaces

[worthy comet]

GT was my top choice going into college admissions and I didn’t get into my two other top choices so the acceptance made it easier to choose lmao

[toxic prism]

ooo yeah that makes the decision easier

its definitely my top choice rn

especially cause my other schools that i like are 80+

which just isnt worth it at all

(for me)

[true compass]

STAMPS scholarship awards went out yesterday

[thorn wagon]

fuck caltech, fuck masstech, gatech is the best tech

(i am begging please let me in)

[kind ledge]

Real

[nimble solar]

ga tech on top 🤓🤓

[mental belfry]

Gt is my last hope

[true compass]

Good luck!

[tardy fractal]

gt is my final joy in life

[sharp pagoda]

odds are stacked against me but I hope I get in

so I know you cannot transfer to cs. Does anyone know how hard it is to transfer to computer engineering? (Is it just unrestricted due to the one unrestricted major change before 60 hours thing)

[tawny valley]

You've gto this

[whole token]

I need this so bad

I will go here if I get in

[cloud tiger]

Did u get in MIT?

[sour quiver]

its MIT, not masstech

Also, what's the point of going to gatech over other state schools?

Cause i've heard that it doesn't matter where you go for engineering

https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/dont-believe-the-hype-prestige-rankings-in-engineering-do-not-really-matter/757478

[raven flicker]

that is sussy

[thorn wagon]

i just call it masstech because it's funny

and i'm also being more serious than i really am. i would love to go to gatech but at the end of the day i know that i probably won't get in and i'll be fine anywhere else. i'm just shooting my shot

[whole token]

This is me

[prime drum]

chill kid

[whole token]

Guys I need this so bad

What do I even do with myself this week

[tawny valley]

My instate school

no way am I paying oos tuition

[tawny wraith]

among us

[visual hound]

sussy baka 😳

sorry

[prime drum]

ur so sussy

[tardy fractal]

4 years on, and among us still influences the youth

[whole token]

I NEED GT

PLEASE GOD

[tardy fractal]

what happens if you dont get in

[visual hound]

u will trust

[whole token]

Ok I trust you

[thin flower]

is your instate gtech?

[tawny valley]

No

NCSU is my state school

I'm paying for my own college and I just don't think that OOS public is worth the price bump

[idle nymph]

any1 know the answer to this

[open socket]

if u get accepted, you can switch instantly

[thin flower]

depends

i feel like certain things like UIUC cs OOS or UVA business OOS or stuff like that could be argued to be worth it

[tawny valley]

Truth is most employers are not going to know what UIUC is or why its special

at least in my area

could be different if you are doing CS

but engineering pay is very standard

[thin flower]

trust me employers will know UIUC for cs or engineering its extremely special for both

[tawny valley]

Depends on the employer

Most people who do hiring don't keep up with rankings

and only have a vague idea about rankings from when they applied to college

and with few exceptions engineering pay is fairly standard regardless of the prestige of your education

[strong vault]

how hard to transfer here for cs

[tawny valley]

In state or out of state?

[primal hare]

Ayyy

[tawny valley]

GT reserves a lot of spots for transfer compared to other UNIs, but it'll be pretty difficult as an OOS transfer

much less an OOS CS transfer

[strong vault]

fuckkk

[tawny valley]

there transfer acceptance rate is higher than their normal acceptance rate though

[strong vault]

i gotta retake my sat too

which sucks

[tawny valley]

its hard to predict your odds, but I'd say they are prolly still better than applying CS oos as a freshman

its really impossible to know for sure

transfer AR fluctuates massively year to year

and they don't give a breakdown of transfers by major as far as I know

[umbral crest]

random thought 💭
is applying rd going to decrease ur chances of getting in

at gatech

[toxic prism]

honestly applying ea or rd doesnt have a significant impact at most schools

aside from some outliers like northeastern and uchicago

in general the difference in acceptance rates can be explained by certain categories of applicants like recruited athletes applying early more than regular

[visual hound]

for most public colleges rd has lower acceptance rate, it just depends on how much

[sharp fulcrum]

I sent an email to gt on feb 3rd and they literally replied today💀

[regal herald]

😭

That is beyond wild

[tardy fractal]

nah they dont llike you

[sharp fulcrum]

[whole token]

Can someone look at my application in DM and tell me what to expect on Friday

[hybrid barn]

Alright i can

[whole token]

I love this school

[true compass]

Me too!

[thorn wagon]

if you don't mind me asking, what did you study at gatech?

[true compass]

MS Quant Comp Finance and PHD ChemE. You get a free MS if you do a free PhD!

Some of my classmates got an MBA along the way

how do you do a free phd? is it like something selective?

Engineering PhD is usually funded. GT is very good at funding your research. Usually a company pays and they also pay you stipend

BFGoodrich tire company funded my research and they take you out to dinner and stuff

wow

Econ PHDs get funded too! One of my interns got accepted for PhD in Econ at uchicago and they paid her tuition plus over 30k/yr

do you know how much cs phds get funded?

or something more niche like machin learning?

That I don’t know but I would think minimum for you to pay rent and eat

ah alr

Plus you can try to get your own funding

Back in the early 2000s, us gov gave $2 billion for research in bioinformatics. So any researcher tried to get a piece. From EE to linguistics

[unkempt socket]

https://www.phdstipends.com/

depends heavily on institution, but the very high end is $50k/year nowadays

[true compass]

Wow. 25 years ago it was 12k/yr

[tardy fractal]

does inflation impact this

[true compass]

Seems like pretty much the same folks here and CMU

[tardy fractal]

georgia tech is at least good enough to tell us its coming out on the 22nd

[weary osprey]

where should i go gt (in state) or ucla (oos)

im majoring in bio but that will probably change

[violet fable]

GT, you get in-state tuition

[hoary elk]

true but gt aint that good

in bio

but ucla isnt worth it for its fees

[violet fable]

i assume if they are majoring in natural sciences, they would go beyond just an undergrad education so in this case, saving money is probably the better idea

[hoary elk]

Is an English Proficiency test mandatory for International Students even if their first language is English?

[candid dome]

you can have the english proficiency requirement waived if your school teaches in english

"A waiver of the English proficiency requirement can be applied to students who have successfully completed academic instruction in English. Successful completion can be demonstrated by one of the following methods: 1) Proof of degree at the secondary or collegiate level either outside or inside the U.S. where English is the official language of academic instruction."

otherwise you're gonna need an english proficiency test (the SAT and ACT count)

[steady fox]

how good is the roi in georgia tech

return on investment

[subtle cosmos]

personally, it's good enough that we (oos) are considering it

[steady fox]

im intl

it's pretty cheap yeah, but the placements aren't that great

[subtle cosmos]

huh?

[steady fox]

they're on par with like uiuc etc

[subtle cosmos]

so?

[late pier]

which is good 😭

[steady fox]

I mean, people go crazy over georgia tech over cmu, ucb and stuff

[late pier]

youre not gonna get better placements at any uni outside like stanford and ucb

[steady fox]

not everyone but you get the point

ucb, cmu is crazy with placements

[late pier]

yeah cause gt isnt as depressing as ucb

[steady fox]

200-250k

[late pier]

both are stressful and competitive

[steady fox]

wdym

how bad is it

[late pier]

ppl usually choose ucb/cmu over gt tho

idk where you get the idea ppl go crazy over gt

[steady fox]

yeah but I've seen people want gt even after getting ucb and cmu

[late pier]

bad

[steady fox]

gt is cheap though so it makes sense

50k vs 80k

[late pier]

ive heard stress culture in general is pretty bad

[late pier]

this too

[subtle cosmos]

my kid didn't even apply to CMU

[late pier]

thats a whole 120k over 4 years

significant amount of money

[subtle cosmos]

between UCB and GT, she prefers GT

[steady fox]

yeah

[steady fox]

may i ask why

[late pier]

did u get into ucb or cmu tho?

[steady fox]

is it for the cost?

[steady fox]

nope, waiting on decisions

[late pier]

if i got ucb im 70% sure i wouldnt go

[subtle cosmos]

GT is closer to home (FL)

[late pier]

UW CS and GT CS both seem preferable

[steady fox]

but I was confused after comparing the placements of gt, cmu and ucb

[steady fox]

uw is bad from what i've heard from other students

[late pier]

in what way?

im in state lol

[steady fox]

by bad I mean, not what you expect

it's below average with facilities

[late pier]

ive heard its very industry/job grind focused

ok thats just cap 😭

[steady fox]

i see

[late pier]

if anything facilities look nice af

[steady fox]

yeah

[late pier]

although i havent visited that many CS buildings

but UW campus in general is beautiful

• CS building gets prob the most investment

[steady fox]

🤔

[late pier]

when i visited i never got the sense that id find it lacking for facilities

[steady fox]

my guy told me that the facilities lack in variety

some are old

[late pier]

yeah tehres an old building and a new one

the old building is a bit mid

[steady fox]

ah, he's probably talking about the old building

[late pier]

pretty sure students take classes in both

seemed like they like working in the new one tho

[steady fox]

he told me he'd pick purdue, gt cs over uwash cs any day

if he could

[late pier]

what experience does he have w uw cs?

in no world does anyone from washington choose purdue or gt over UW

i got into all 3 along w a few other ik

[steady fox]

i mean yes, not in-state

he's oos

[late pier]

and we would all rather go UW pretty sure

[steady fox]

he's a first or second year student I think

met him in some server long ago

[late pier]

oh yeah in that case prob go to GT

purdue over uw is wild

[steady fox]

yeah lmao

[steady fox]

debatable

purdue is cheap af

and it's has insane facilities

also more students but yeah

[late pier]

hm ig if youre OOS for all 3...

[steady fox]

wait, uwash has more students than purdue :

[late pier]

idk no one here rlly wants to go to purdue

purdue is kinda known as the CS school everyone gets into but no one endas up going to

[steady fox]

i heard purdue is really really good

[late pier]

for CS?

theyre decent yeah

[steady fox]

well yeah they had this weird rollout with acceptance rates last year

they went nuts

[late pier]

the ppl who dont get into UW CS end up going to*

[steady fox]

this year they've been conservative with it

[late pier]

they also didnt feel that selective with EAs

[steady fox]

I've been deferred

[late pier]

ah

idk bit random maybe

[steady fox]

a girl from my class with no ecs got in

yeah

purdue decisions are weird ill give you that

[viscid helm]

Do I have any chance

Got deferred for math

[steady fox]

yes

[sharp pagoda]

i got deferred for mech eng

they say deferral acceptance rate is approx 20% which still isnt great odds

[frank dagger]

decisions are out?

oh deferred

u EA'd

[sharp pagoda]

yeah

EA2

i was expecting flat out reject tbh

they're just giving me hope to shut it down later lmao

[frank dagger]

hope u get in

[sharp pagoda]

hope so as well

but who knows

[frank dagger]

u did any ivies?

[sharp pagoda]

nope

ivies are a waste of time for me

[hoary elk]

EA2 was super competitive tho

it was 9% acceptance rate

[viral cliff]

This states otherwise?

https://admission.gatech.edu/international/first-year

[viscid helm]

What was the acceptance rate after deferral

For oos and intl students

Do you think it’s lower than 20%

[shy skiff]

is anyone else's gtech portal not working?

i just want to know if it's just my overloaded laptop or somethign else

[viral cliff]

https://admission.gatech.edu/international/first-year

Did all International Freshmen have to give an English proficiency test?

[shy skiff]

A waiver of the English proficiency requirement can be applied to students who have successfully completed academic instruction in English. Successful completion can be demonstrated by one of the following methods: 1) Proof of degree at the secondary or collegiate level either outside or inside the U.S. where English is the official language of academic instruction. 2) Proof of completion of the equivalent of English 1101 and/or 1102 with a grade of C or better in one or both courses, at an accredited U.S. institution.

just copied it

but if u have this, no test needed

[shy skiff]

nvm, it's just my laptop lol

[viral cliff]

Where is this from? Link?
I’m eligible but does not reflect waived on my checklist.

Deferred intl cs is that bad?

[vital mortar]

It’s 20 percent acceptance rate

it’s good

[cloud tiger]

I wonder do the defer more or less intls

And is intl harder than oos

[vital mortar]

To be completely honest

intl data is quite hard

to find

but ik some people deferred at my school

[cloud tiger]

For cs or gatech in general?

[vital mortar]

Gatech

and CS 💀

Yeah

[cloud tiger]

😭

[vital mortar]

Bruh MIT 💀

[dull halo]

[vital mortar]

Chicago pretty crap ngl

[dull halo]

i didn’t apply to any school early

i was grinding the sat

[vital mortar]

like the uni think they’re that selective

[vital mortar]

I feel u bro 😭

what did u get in the end

[dull halo]

student life is bad if im not mistaken

[vital mortar]

SAT wise

[cloud tiger]

I wanna get into gatech so i dont have to sit a levels 😭

[vital mortar]

Yeah

[dull halo]

1520 800 math

[vital mortar]

Isn’t it also in a bad area

[vital mortar]

NICE

For me I took it three times

For a 1510

😭

[dull halo]

it’s very good

[vital mortar]

December was my last chance

[cloud tiger]

I did it once in December for gatech 😭

Got 1440

[vital mortar]

W

December test was good

[dull halo]

i took the paper sat twice two years ago and scored pretty bad

[cloud tiger]

But Gatech doesn’t care as long as its more than 1330 i think

[dull halo]

dsat is much better for intls i believe

[vital mortar]

It’s funny cuz I scored well in the ghetto schools

[cloud tiger]

Yes and no

1 wrong u lose 60 pts

[vital mortar]

but scored badly in the good ones I went to

[dull halo]

for me it was especially for the english section

[vital mortar]

Not rlly

[rocky gate]

same bro

[dull halo]

you need luck as well

[vital mortar]

English always had the Ahmed zewail questions

Or was I tweakin

[dull halo]

😂

english was a nightmare

[vital mortar]

the phemtochemist 😭

He’s the only Nobel winner from my country

[cloud tiger]

Apparently gatech only requires sat cuz of state of georgia

[dull halo]

egypt ?

[vital mortar]

bud went to UPenn -> Berkeley -> Caltech

[cloud tiger]

Above 1330 i think they dont look at it anymore

[vital mortar]

Yeah I’m nationality wise Egyptian but that’s from my mom I’m ethnically mixed tho but didn’t get my fathers nationalities

[vital mortar]

Especially with a levels

They don’t care about the SAT when u have the a levels

[dull halo]

it’s still good to have 1500+ as an international

it’s a bonus

[cloud tiger]

I got deferred with a 1440 and my 1510 friend got rejected 😭

[vital mortar]

yeah it is

[cloud tiger]

They probably look at lors more

[dull halo]

it’s pretty random

[cloud tiger]

Whats the gatech common data set

[vital mortar]

You def cooked with the essays and ECS/Awards

[dull halo]

[cloud tiger]

[vital mortar]

😭 bro bagged the UCs

[dull halo]

UCs are too expensive tho 😭

[rocky gate]

UCSB and UCLA rejected me, though UCSD and UCD belives in me

[vital mortar]

Tbh in Atlanta it’s normally between people who have enemies

Like usually it’s not gonna happen to the avg person

[dull halo]

UCSD acceptance animation was cool

ucla was boring af

[vital mortar]

Issue with gatech is that it’s downtown 😭

[cloud tiger]

😭

Ima stay in dorms

[vital mortar]

😭

Atlanta is pretty ok bro

Ur not gonna die

[dull halo]

safer than chicago i guess

[cloud tiger]

Yup

[vital mortar]

😭

[cloud tiger]

Chicago is different

Bro my cousins from irvine are moving to Chicago 💀💀💀

[vital mortar]

Honestly I think location matters most

sushi if we both get in

[vital mortar]

[dull halo]

[vital mortar]

apparently I shouldn’t do mandatory service in Egypt till I finish college

[dull halo]

14 bomboclaat months

[vital mortar]

but my father isn’t Egyptian

So I don’t think I’ll qualify anyway

[dull halo]

it’s a waste of time

[vital mortar]

cuz I can “leak info”

Which is good

[vital mortar]

GENIUNELY

We ain’t in ww2 no more 😭

Turkey ain’t gonna invade Cyprus

[dull halo]

got to protect the motherland though 🫡 (i sit all day)

[vital mortar]

Nor will Israel invade Egypt

[vital mortar]

They just make people make tea for the Sargents and officials

or do crazy shit for them

It’s a mess

[dull halo]

hahahaha fr

coffee and food

and a monthly trip to the shooting range

[vital mortar]

💀

[primal hare]

What

[vital mortar]

bro what was the food like

[vital mortar]

Armies outside the us are just shit

[primal hare]

Wait wdym hs junior and hs grad

[vital mortar]

There’s compulsory conscription

for people in certain countries around the world

[primal hare]

Wow they are drafting this early

[vital mortar]

yeah

Straight out of HS

💀

[dull halo]

they bring us catering

it’s pretty bad, but decent compared to older times

[vital mortar]

😭

https://tenor.com/view/im-dead-dead-bruh-skeleton-dead-bruh-skeleton-dead-im-dead-bruh-gif-26854866

Average Cyprus military conscription

Wtf is that “I’m dead bruh” added to the gif 💀

[dull halo]

😂😂

[dull halo]

it’s mandatory for 18 year olds to serve 14 months since 37% of Cyprus is occupied by the Turkish

so yeah HS graduation in June, enrolment in July 😂

[vital mortar]

So scary

Bruh 😭 Istg military conscription is useless

[dull halo]

there’s no conflict tho it’s very safe

[vital mortar]

That’s what I’m saying

I’m laughing at the fact that they’re still scared

of turkey

😭

[dull halo]

hahahaha

[vital mortar]

Like it’s not 1900s

it’s the 21st century

[dull halo]

i mean turkey is much stronger than us

[vital mortar]

True

But

[dull halo]

but with NATO etc idk now

[vital mortar]

like are they really gonna defeat it with nato

etc

exactly

lol

If that’s a point

Why tf is Egypt doing military conscription

💀

What is useful about it

[lost condor]

Im screaming dying begging praying I get in

i got deferred for CS as an international

but my mid year report tanked 4%

[dull halo]

[lost condor]

ehhhhhh

[dull halo]

tbh i didn’t even celebrate i opened it when i had just woken up 😂

[cloud tiger]

I couldnt even submit one

[dull halo]

and also because i won’t be getting any aid so it’s pretty expensive for me

[cloud tiger]

why would want to live in ultraexpensive land

[tardy fractal]

only downside to atlanta is hurricanes

[vital mortar]

To get an ultra expensive salary as a tech bro

[tardy fractal]

it feels like home

what about the rest of the industries

being fired every 6 months
