No he left

So prob banned

[calm wagon]

He’s not banned

He can’t be

No way?

It can’t be

[lapis hatch]

He said a slur

So yes, he’s banned

[calm wagon]

Oh

Damn

[little pagoda]

Now I know how to get myself banned when my screen time on here goes too high

Thanks

[lapis hatch]

Cool

[little pagoda]

Y’all couldn’t even warn or something 😭

He gone forever

[lapis hatch]

Why would we warn for a slur

[little pagoda]

Just delete and warn so that they know not to type it again

He didn’t know

[lapis hatch]

Bro that should be common sense

[calm wagon]

Okay that’s stupid

Like

You should know

If a slur

[lapis hatch]

I’m not warning someone because they don’t have decency

[little pagoda]

It’s an honest mistake honestly

[calm wagon]

Guys

[velvet minnow]

Gaming got banned too @calm wagon

rip

[calm wagon]

I know

Rest in piece

[velvet minnow]

Who is going to be our resident junior now

[sonic frigate]

Who's gaming

[velvet minnow]

gamingbyop

[sonic frigate]

The other guy who used to chat here?

Oh shit why was he banned

[velvet minnow]

.

not sure

I wasn't here

i assume he said some bad words

[sonic frigate]

🗿 now we won't even know if he got in

[velvet minnow]

hes a junior bruh

we wouldn't know for another year

[calm wagon]

Oh o know

[calm wagon]

Apparently

There was this other dude

Before gaming got banned

He happened to be a guy from my area in va

I told him I got waitlisted from a uva tour provided by the school

And he told me to just do a personal tour

[velvet minnow]

that was s1ns

[calm wagon]

But I said gas money is expensive or something like that

[calm wagon]

No

[velvet minnow]

yes

[calm wagon]

We are getting there

Listen

Let me tell my story

[hard ridge]

mwit theres an application???

[calm wagon]

No interuptsies

[velvet minnow]

hes no longer with us sins

[calm wagon]

That’s what I was gonna get to

So basically he told me to jsut drive up there

I said gas money is a lot or something

Then he told me like “drive” and said a slur right after

So he got banned

Then gaming

Was trying to get him unbanned

So he got carly

And then he started like “trolling”

And he got banned for it

[velvet minnow]

wow classic gaming

[sonic frigate]

Oh right I forgot

[velvet minnow]

i mean if you say a slur you might as well expect to be banned

[velvet minnow]

@calm wagon ur response sohulda been

"my lego essay looking pretty good rn"

[sonic frigate]

😭😭😭😭

[hard ridge]

lol

[hard ridge]

pfft thats wild

funny thing is i got banned for the same thing the other dude got banned for

but appealed itt cuzz idk i was jus typing and its in my vocab

[calm wagon]

The N word?

[hard ridge]

ye

[calm wagon]

Cause form what I saw for a split second he said “drive” insert n word

[hard ridge]

ye ik

i said sumn like almost identical

[calm wagon]

Wait s1ns

Did you apply ea/ed or rd?

[hard ridge]

ea

deferred

wl

[calm wagon]

@velvet minnow @sonic frigate @mortal vortex @hard ridge 😭

[velvet minnow]

Good

[stoic comet]

finally

[mortal vortex]

😭😭😭

solid

[sonic frigate]

😔 the tragic ending of two rivals

So tubba won huh😢

[mortal vortex]

crazy

[calm wagon]

I kind of miss him

[calm wagon]

I miss byop

Iron sharpens iron 🙁

No more

[calm wagon]

Okay guys

Bad news

[hard ridge]

Hm

[calm wagon]

Wait it’s not bad news

But not good news

It’s like genuine

[calm wagon]

How big is the difference in acceptance rate when applying Ed/ea to uva compared to RD

[hard ridge]

http://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/2023/03/unofficial-2022-2023-uva-admission.html?m=1

http://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/2023/02/2023-uva-early-action-admission.html?m=1

[calm wagon]

What the hell

Only 2182 thousand

For regular decision acceptance??

[hard ridge]

Yeah

[calm wagon]

Uh oh

🙁

[calm wagon]

Okay

Only thing I can take away from this

Is

Being instate does have quite an impact

On being admitted compared to oos

But shiiiit

[calm wagon]

You applied ea or Ed or something right, but got deferred then out on waitlist?

So you basically got pushed to rd from ed/ea

[hard ridge]

Ye

[uneven carbon]

Do yk how competitive uva ed @hard ridge

[calm wagon]

And even when you did get pushed from ed/ea to rd

You STILL got waitlisted?

[hard ridge]

Pretty competitive

[hard ridge]

Yes

[calm wagon]

Wait

For people applying early

It’s most likely they are the more competitive applicants in a sense? Or no?

Since they’re applying early

I’m not trying to like assume that people would apply rd aren’t as competitive than ppl who apply early

But isn’t that somewhat the case kinda ish?

@hard ridge

[hard ridge]

Nah I’d say it’s opposite for uva

Actually I lied

If u did Ed then I’d say the most competitive ppl r in ea

Cuz a lot of ppl here ed at ivies

[calm wagon]

So that’s where like most of the competitive people are if you would have to guess or make an assumption?

Compared to like Ed/rd?

[hard ridge]

If I had to guess

But like

It don’t matter

They’ll let u in if ur good enough

[mortal vortex]

facts

[calm wagon]

Just got to wait and believe

🙏

[bold zodiac]

Part of the 50% that didnt get deferred or accepted

I was expecting deferrment

Which i wouldve taken

Because my ass would be in wise right now

[calm wagon]

Wait is that what happened if you get deferred?

You end up at wise…?

[calm wagon]

Like don’t have to apply to wise?

Or do you just like end up there

If you get deferred

[bold zodiac]

no most defers are waitlists

ultimately

(which is why they dont defer anymore starting this year they just waitlist your ass)

if you are in CAS and you get waitlisted they give you the choice to go to wise for 1 year and if you maintain a 3.0 they let you transfer to cville

which isnt hard, its wise virginia, theres nothing to do except study

william and mary has similar programs

i got waitlisted there (also half assed that app)

[uneven carbon]

What about engineering

[calm wagon]

Why did you half ass it?

Oh

Did you procrastinate?

[calm wagon]

did you apply early to w&m aswell?

[velvet minnow]

would you have went to Wise if you didn't get into UVA? @hard ridge

[calm wagon]

Wait I’m still confused about this whole wise thing

So it’s wise right

What is this whole talk about going to wise if not accepted into uva cause isn’t that two different applications u have to submit or do

[velvet minnow]

@calm wagon If you are Waitlistd from UVA

You are offered a spot at UVA Wise for 1 year, and then after that 1 year you're auto-admitted into UVA if you have above a 3.0

[calm wagon]

Now if you’re rejected?

Then you would need to go through the transfer process?

[velvet minnow]

Oh if you're rejectd you're rejectd

You'd have to reapply next year or apply as a transfer

But no auto-admit

[calm wagon]

Auto admit?

OHHHH

So like if you got rejected from uva and u try to transfer there the next year ur not guaranteed

[velvet minnow]

yes

[calm wagon]

While if you’re waitlisted form uva u have the option to go to wise for a year, then after you’re automatically admitted for next year?

[velvet minnow]

Yes

[calm wagon]

Hm

[velvet minnow]

If you maintain 3.0 GPA+

[calm wagon]

So like it could be a 3.1 or a 3.9

And you’d still be automatically admitted?

Into uva?

[velvet minnow]

yes

[hard ridge]

No I would’ve gone to Wisconsin Madison for cs on like 40K scholarship

[calm wagon]

Why didn’t you

[hard ridge]

Cuz I got off UVA wl

And was same price cuz of fin aid

[bold zodiac]

Rd

[hearty patrol]

oos?

[hard ridge]

And uw mad is low key better for cs but UVA good enough and closer

[bold zodiac]

Didnt care about schoolwork

[hard ridge]

Ye

[hearty patrol]

wow

[calm wagon]

Can I put building and collecting lego down as an ec

[hearty patrol]

i got decent stuff but idk if its enough for madison cs

[hard ridge]

Word

[calm wagon]

Cause under activities

[hard ridge]

What ur stats

[calm wagon]

It says hobbies

[hard ridge]

If u want I can show u my essay

I think that’s what got me so much

[hearty patrol]

1530 (1540 super score), top 10% class gpa wise

[hearty patrol]

sure

[hard ridge]

I had 1500 and was top 50%

[hearty patrol]

oh wow

[hard ridge]

But my gpa wasn’t my fault

[calm wagon]

Oh wow

What did you write about?

[hearty patrol]

ah that makes sense

[bold zodiac]

Yeah its an activity

[hearty patrol]

my income level is low but high

[hard ridge]

Shi I don’t remember I did 25 schools

[calm wagon]

Even if all I do is build and collect lego…?

[calm wagon]

😭

[hearty patrol]

low enough that college is expensive anywhere

but high enough that i wont get signfiicant aid

[hard ridge]

Dsmn

Well gl

[hearty patrol]

well id get a ton of aid if its a private

my efc was abt 20k

when i chekced

[hard ridge]

Mine was 15k

[calm wagon]

Holy shit

[hearty patrol]

oh wow

big diff but also small diff

[hard ridge]

UVA meets 100% need

[hearty patrol]

well thats good

[hard ridge]

They’ll call themselves from fafsa

With css and doc

Mine was like writhing 1k of my fasfa etc

[hearty patrol]

oh

[bold zodiac]

Yeah

[calm wagon]

But what would I put position/leadership description as??

“Collecter of Lego”

“Master builder”

??? 😭

[sonic frigate]

??

[calm wagon]

INAK TEYING TO FIGURE OUT IF I CAN PUT LEGO AS AN EXTRA CURRICULAR UNDER ACTIVITY

[sonic frigate]

Nah bruh only if you won a national Lego competition or some shit😭😭

I know FIRST does that but it's for middle schoolers

[calm wagon]

As

Aw

[velvet minnow]

Only if you’re REALLLY passionate about it and can prove impact

Like built a Lego used at the National Lego museum

[calm wagon]

Dawg I have nothing else to put for the last spot

I might just end up doing lego

[calm wagon]

Okay look

This isn’t the right chat

Yippee 🔥

[tulip shard]

Did you end up putting Lego in ur ec

[calm wagon]

Yes

[calm wagon]

I was blanking on what to put for the last one

I mean I could’ve done more volunteering

[calm wagon]

Was gonna put “master builder”

And “collector of legos”

[tulip shard]

U should’ve done that ngl

[calm wagon]

To sound badass

[calm wagon]

It was basically repeat

[tulip shard]

I wanna hear ur description

We’ll see

Well

[calm wagon]

I just added it with similar ecs

And volunteering opportunities

[calm wagon]

Like I had done three food drives

So I jsut o ur them under the same thing

[velvet minnow]

@calm wagon did you submit UVA EA

[calm wagon]

Nuh uh

Doing rd

Stressed me out way too much to worry abt uva and tech and w&m early

[calm wagon]

But these are the 2 applied to

[velvet minnow]

Nice

[hard ridge]

honestly speaking i think ur good for everything but uva

uva u gon have to work on the essay a lot more

[calm wagon]

No I know

[calm wagon]

I’m planning to fix up my essay after I submitted my schools here ^

[cunning sphinx]

hi guys

[tulip shard]

Hi

Good luck everyone

[uneven carbon]

Is anyone here doing ED

[hard ridge]

Gl

[spiral obsidian]

nope ea, too

[hearty patrol]

I’m ea

[tulip shard]

hi ea

[hearty patrol]

Hi

[calm wagon]

S1ns

Did you see that uzi concert down in Hampton

[hard ridge]

No

[calm wagon]

I went

It was sick

[stoic comet]

im going next week did he mainly play a lot of pink tape or everything

[calm wagon]

Mostly pink tape tbf

[mortal vortex]

damn lucky bruh

[rapid bluff]

Yall UVA sent me an student portal ID and SIS ID

What is teh difference?

[sonic frigate]

Sis id is powerschool and student portal I'd let's you access canvas and school net and stuff

That's my high school thingy it can be different for college idk

[rapid bluff]

What is Powerschool?

[sonic frigate]

It's a place where you see your grades and stuff

[rapid bluff]

Ah ok thxx

[sonic frigate]

Did you get in UVA?

[rapid bluff]

No i applied EA there

[sonic frigate]

Oh

[sonic frigate]

How'd you get the Id and all then

Is that normal

[rapid bluff]

They just sent me emails

With the ID and pins

[hearty patrol]

I got it too

[stoic comet]

Its j portal login

[hard ridge]

student portal ios just like application checklist and shit liek that its also where u gon see ur decision
SIS is a bit different where its like ur fin aid and all that and will be important if u go here since its like where u enroll and pre much everything else

everyone gets it

[calm wagon]

[sick eagle]

would u guys choose virginia tech over uva for cs

im not a virginia resident but i found it slightly suprising how va tech is higher ranked for cs compared to uva even though they except much more people

[uneven carbon]

even though im a vt glazer probably uva

[uneven carbon]

overall vt is less competitive but not for the college of engineering

which includes cs

[sick eagle]

Wait so is uva less competitive for cs?

[uneven carbon]

uh

im not sure

vt is probably easier to get into for cs but not by much

[velvet minnow]

NO

UVA is more competitive

[hard ridge]

My totally unbiased opinion is cs rankings don’t mean much considering a lot of it has to do with research. Outside of a t5/t10 school u don’t gain much out of it if ur going into industry. For example vt is ranked higher but uva cs grads make more out of college and generally ur connected to more companies from uva (eg reddit founders are uva grads) and uva has more name recognition in gen

Vt cs curriculum also kinda sucks like ur not even doin cs shi till 2nd year which is wild to me

[hard ridge]

Vt much easier also neither accept by major only by college bc u have to do pre reqs to get into ur major

Which at vt u have to compete against all the engineering undergrads cuz limited spots. UVA u just need to pass pre reqs and ur in

[native ruin]

I shouldve EAed here

I'm dumb lmao

Will they give me the same amount of aid if I apply here RD?

[hard ridge]

Yes

[native ruin]

So should I still apply RD?

UVA gave me a surprisingly good aid estimate considering I’m OOS

[bold zodiac]

Yeah might as well

[bold zodiac]

They meet 100% of the aid you need

They don’t give merit scholarships tho

[native ruin]

Ah ok

[velvet minnow]

UVA is ranked higher in CS atleast this year

• you gain connections you’d never get at VT

my brother got a job THE DAY of graduation

[hard ridge]

Wild

But yeah I agree

[cunning sphinx]

what does this mean?

my teacher did send it

[bold zodiac]

wait

it wont show up immediately

[frank flume]

not necessarily

they use their own institutional financial aid calculator and it isnt as forgiving as the FAFSA

[frank flume]

uva is the better program for sure

but its just rankings at the end of the day

rankings are superficial and people dont realize that uva is a engineering school as well

[frank flume]

nah by a decent amount

[uneven carbon]

Ig but I still won’t say that it’s easy to get into

It’s not on gmu or jmus level

[calm wagon]

How are my fellow Virginians

[sonic frigate]

Quite Virgin, thank you

[mortal vortex]

average virginian

[hard ridge]

Working a double

[tulip shard]

thx

[calm wagon]

No problem

@hard ridge

How is schools l

[hard ridge]

It’s Aiit

[shell sonnet]

there was a 4.4% increase of ED applicants

genuinely scared i'm going to be rejected come december 15 😭

[wind ore]

duke has a 25% increase ur chilling dw

4.4% is expected considering the growth in people applying to colleges every year

[uneven carbon]

Same bruh

I’m in nova so it’s worse for me

[shell sonnet]

so im in King William in Virginia and i tried to send it on a map but either way my chances aren't high either because my school doesn't have any resources 😭

my only thing that might get me in is my GPA considering, and all the service and academic clubs that i do

p sure they don't care that i'm working two jobs so 💀

[sonic frigate]

UVA is like UNC

VTech is like NCSU

TJHSST is like NCSSM

Summary: Virginia is like North Carolina

[shell sonnet]

my brain at 12 am also makes peculiar connections like that

[fallen cairn]

gonna one up you

[shell sonnet]

uh oh

[sonic frigate]

Being awake at 12am and experiencing drunkenness-

[fallen cairn]

UVA is like UF (both are orange, best uni in their state)
VTech is like FSU (both are garnet/maroon, second best uni in their state)
idk what those acronyms are

[sonic frigate]

Well what's the summary

[fallen cairn]

oopsies

Summary: orange > garnet/maroon

[shell sonnet]

see here is my logic.

uva has to admit me

bc

my high school mascot is a cavalier

[sonic frigate]

UVA should admit you because you're a one in a kind human

[shell sonnet]

and uvas is a cavalier

[sonic frigate]

Quite literally

[shell sonnet]

and boom math

aw ty 🥹

[fallen cairn]

You should email your AO and tell them that word for word

[shell sonnet]

you are so right

[fallen cairn]

just ss atp

[shell sonnet]

i just got back from work we are feeling ✨️delirious✨️

[shell sonnet]

even better

[sonic frigate]

I used to think all the tech schools were dogshit

Until I realized

VTech, GTech and ITech are some of the best engineering schools out there lmao

[shell sonnet]

im trying to do archaeology so 😭

[fallen cairn]

we should call vtech by her legal name

[sonic frigate]

I didn't think that would be the real name💀💀

Why not VTI like RTI

Why did they include state university

[fallen cairn]

idk, Florida polytechnic university is a thing (my brother went there) and everyone calls it florida poly

virginia poly doesn’t roll of the tongue as well tho

[sonic frigate]

12:00am inspo

[sonic frigate]

Yeah fair, like how do you even pronouce this shit

And this

[shell sonnet]

GUYS

im going through my great uncles obituary and things like that AND THIS MOTHER FUCKER FOUNDED THE DIVISION OF PLASTIC AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY AT UVA AND NO ONE THOUGHT TO FUCKING TELL ME???

feel like that could have been on one part of UVa's common app 😭

[wind ore]

damn

that was an accepatnce

[shell sonnet]

i'm screaming right now

LIKE WHAT DO I DO IM FROM NOWHERE, VIRGINIA MY ACADEMICS ARENT AS GOOD AS NOVA IDFK WHAT TO DO

[wind ore]

mail them

saying u left out this

i mean its better than doing nothing

[shell sonnet]

idk abt that one bestie

[tulip shard]

Where u find that info

[shell sonnet]

he was a plastic surgeon and i read his obituary and cross checked it with AAPS

i have the ss but i cant send it in here

i'm literally clawing at the walls right now i want to kms

what do i doooooooooooo

fighting god rn like is that something they even care about though

idk if that's even worth telling the university

[oak merlin]

is this info doxxable

change this to Dr. XXX please

[shell sonnet]

he's dead

and which bit of info specifically

and it was on a public website 😭

[oak merlin]

Since we know he's your great uncle, it might be possible to find your fam tree ?

[shell sonnet]

nah to be honest

because they're estranged and stuff and there's really no mention of my side of the family

but thanks for looking out for me 🫡

I didn't even know that he was my great uncle until he died so 💀

[mortal vortex]

is uva the only public school that does ED

[shell sonnet]

no, a lot of publics do ED

[mortal vortex]

which others

[sonic frigate]

Guys let's call Virginia by her legal name

"Commonwealth Virginia"

[mortal vortex]

the great commonwealth of virginia

[shell sonnet]

let's call all of them by their legal names

[hard ridge]

We beat unc so

Wen do decisions come out this year

[mortal vortex]

true

uva > unc

[calm wagon]

Mine is too

[sonic frigate]

🤓👆

[sonic frigate]

Me only beliv ze trustworthy college rankings🤓🤓

[mortal vortex]

crazy

💀

[sonic frigate]

Dawg but why does UVA have so expensive tuition

[mortal vortex]

true

[sonic frigate]

No wonder ncssm kids get full ride to UNC, it's so cheap to cover anyways

[mortal vortex]

uva is crazy money

[sonic frigate]

Idk man this is kinda not fax

Una > uva
Ncsu > vtech

[mortal vortex]

tbh unc = uva for most things

idk bout ncsu and vtech

[sonic frigate]

Fair enough

Why are the acceptance rates so similar too

[mortal vortex]

ong

they're both like low 20%

[uneven carbon]

Tech is better for engineering but ncsu is better for other stem majors and humanities

[mortal vortex]

or that might be umich and unc

[sonic frigate]

And ncsu and VTech is 40% something

[sonic frigate]

Engineering too

[mortal vortex]

umich > unc = uva

icl

[sonic frigate]

Fr

[uneven carbon]

For undergrad?

I can’t find any rankings for the college of engineering overall for undergead

I know the rankings for specific majors

[sonic frigate]

Ye

[shell sonnet]

UVA decisions for ED come out december 15

[uneven carbon]

Oh

They confirmed?

Last time I check it said around dec 15

[lapis hatch]

Source?

[shell sonnet]

it's around, but looking at deanj and their website it says it

[lapis hatch]

That is when I would again ask, source?

[shell sonnet]

sorry

[lapis hatch]

Doesn’t look like Dean j has confirmed it for this year either

[wind ore]

no

uva is better unc

umich is better

[sonic frigate]

Bruh they didn't rank aerospace?

[sonic frigate]

I see, pretty cool

[mortal vortex]

that’s what i said

but people argued

imo umich > uva > unc

all great schools tho

[turbid garnet]

does UVA ED check your 1st quarter senior year grades? anyone know

[mortal vortex]

you've asked this10339 times

[turbid garnet]

but no one told me

[sonic frigate]

Crazy

[calm wagon]

No

Cause aren’t you submitting before

The 1st quaeter

[shell sonnet]

umich north campus looks like an office park

very sad

[turbid garnet]

alright, thanks

[cosmic dagger]

YOOO

[cosmic dagger]

no

[cosmic dagger]

debatable, depends on what major

[sonic frigate]

Hi virginians

[turbid garnet]

nice ok

i can sleep tonight

[cosmic dagger]

yeah i don't think they even ask for you 1st sem grade senior year

as long as you don't like fail half your classes you should be fine

but obviously try to aim for like a's and b's

[turbid garnet]

well thats why i was worried lol i got a B- first q this year, and ive never even gotten below an A- in my first 3 years

which is why im hoping they just dont check

[tulip shard]

Well first trimester/semester is also important

Cause your counselor had to upload a mid year report

[cosmic dagger]

for ED?

na

nah

[tulip shard]

They can still rescind your offer

[turbid garnet]

im not really worried about this, im picking up the slack now + rescinding only happens in extremes like D's or something so im sure they wouldnt take me and rescind me cuz of a B- even

i was just worried that they would see it in the decision process

[hard ridge]

Ngl I had a C on my final report and I’m fine 😂

[turbid garnet]

oh wow lol

do you happen to know if they checked out ur 1st q grades senior year?

[hard ridge]

ye if u get deferred u ahve to send in ur grades

pre much they will see what they need to

if u apply EA/ED theyll see everything up till sr year

then if u get in theyll ask for ur grades pereodically but if u not failing ur good

if ur deffered or apply rd then they will see ur 1st sem grades and consider them

[turbid garnet]

ah got it

[turbid garnet]

yeah im not worried if i get in, cuz i didnt fail too bad + im picking it up 2nd quarter i just dont want them to see it rn already with my ED app

[hard ridge]

ye

[calm wagon]

Happy thanksgiving my fellow virgins

Criticisms

Virginians

[mortal vortex]

same thing

[calm wagon]

I need to finish my lego essay soon

[sonic frigate]

Can we read it after you get accepted

[mortal vortex]

you've been working on that lego essay for years

[calm wagon]

Actually like 1 moth

[sonic frigate]

1 moths a long time

[mortal vortex]

long time for a lego essay

[fallen cairn]

he’s still building it

brick by brick

piece by piece

[bold zodiac]

They wont rescind unless its an EXTREME scenario

Like

They have a zoom meeting with you first if your grades completely collapse and rescinding is a worse case scenario

[shell sonnet]

me when they won't tell me what day

[calm wagon]

I think I might scrap it tbf

[sonic frigate]

NOOOOOOOOO

[mortal vortex]

NOOOOO

THE LEGENDARY LEGO ESSAY

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BUILDING IT BRICK BY BRICK

[sonic frigate]

PIECE BY PIECE

[calm wagon]

I might just write about my martial arts experience for the past 5 years

Instead

[shell sonnet]

me when uni of st andrews rejects me

[calm wagon]

Okay actually

UVA has moved up to the top of my list

Just found out uva has “good” student support services

Allegedly

[cosmic dagger]

bro i just wanna get in

would save so much stress as an in-state applicant

[hard ridge]

real

wen do yall find out

[velvet minnow]

EA is February, but according to my brother(s) they usually come out january

[hard ridge]

word

[velvet minnow]

i still ahven't finished my jeff scholars

[hard ridge]

sheesh

iim in the middle of finals szn

[velvet minnow]

[calm wagon]

Hi guys

Good morning

[lapis hatch]

Good midnight

[mortal vortex]

nothing is good

[calm wagon]

You’re just a bit sad

[mortal vortex]

everyday i have the blues

[calm wagon]

Well underpass yourself

Underpass

Undepress

[cosmic dagger]

2 WEEKS

[calm wagon]

Until what

[cosmic dagger]

ED decision

less than that probs

[calm wagon]

Why

[calm wagon]

Why

Who applied Ed here

[cosmic dagger]

I'm in state and i'm shooting for mcintire

so yeah

[calm wagon]

That’s the business school isn’t it

[cosmic dagger]

yeah

[calm wagon]

Oh

Isn’t that shit rlly hard

Or selective

[cosmic dagger]

yep 🫠

[calm wagon]

Oh nvm

That makes sense then

Good luck!

[cosmic dagger]

actually

[calm wagon]

I’m applying rd

For

[cosmic dagger]

the thing is for mcintire it's an application after you get into uva

[calm wagon]

The engineering school

Tbf

Who knows if that is a stupid decision

[cosmic dagger]

so it's like even if i get in (hopefully i do, so no stress second semester) then i'll still have to be like top 15% of the students because their acceptance rate for the mcintire school of commerce is like 12%

[cosmic dagger]

engineering is never a bad decision

huge job security

[calm wagon]

I mean to apply rd

[cosmic dagger]

oh yeah. it's fine as long as you have good stats and put some dedication into your essays.

[uneven carbon]

Nice I’m also ed’ing

Engineering tho

[cosmic dagger]

nice, hopefully i'll see you there

[uneven carbon]

Yep hopefully we both get in lol

[calm wagon]

Oh nice

Good luck!

I’m applying rd

[tulip shard]

Gl I applied ea

[uneven carbon]

Ty

[uneven carbon]

Gl

[calm wagon]

God damn 😭

[calm wagon]

Shit

[calm wagon]

Makes me feel like I should’ve done ea/ed aswell 🤒

[manic dew]

I know people from the UVA iGem team and all of them are really cool

In my eyes all UVA people are pretty cool

So if you get in

You are probably cool

[tulip shard]

yay

[cosmic dagger]

are you in state?

[cosmic dagger]

you from nova?

[uneven carbon]

yep

[woven brook]

applying for transfer to uva :3

[calm wagon]

Yes

Yall just making me feel like I should’ve applied earlier 🤒

[fallen cairn]

good luck!!!

[calm wagon]

Where’s my good luck

[fallen cairn]

good luck!!!

[cosmic dagger]

yeah, i agree you should've applied ea if you were in state. but it should be fine if you have good metrics even for rd

[calm wagon]

You’re j making me feel worse 😭

I just wasn’t ready to apply early as there were other things going on😭

[cosmic dagger]

the application takes like 30 minutes to fill out bro 😭

it's only the essay that takes longer

[calm wagon]

That is the problem

[cosmic dagger]

lol fair

[calm wagon]

No that was finished dawg

My essay is the problem

Now I’m feeling worse abt not applying early

[cosmic dagger]

i started working on the essay like 2 weeks in advance so i think i had a good essay (touch wood)

[calm wagon]

Since my stats I would say are already subpar

[cosmic dagger]

it's fine bruh

sat act and gpa?

[calm wagon]

Prolly going test op

3.85 weighted

3.6 uw

Ib ap course load

[cosmic dagger]

what's the max at ur school

[calm wagon]

Past 4 years

[cosmic dagger]

and how many ap's total

[calm wagon]

Max weighted or uw?

[cosmic dagger]

weight

[calm wagon]

5

But no one has reached that

[cosmic dagger]

va tech is ur best bet

how many ap/stho

[calm wagon]

Highest everything this school for my class

Is a 4.4

[cosmic dagger]

so i'm assuming ur barely top 25%?

[calm wagon]

Just outside

[cosmic dagger]

yeah apply va tech

uva would be hard

[calm wagon]

🙁

[cosmic dagger]

like apply ofc, but def gonna be much harder

if you can write some banger essay

[calm wagon]

I hope my rigor can explain stuff

Kinda

[cosmic dagger]

how many ap's

[calm wagon]

Cause uva is my best bet for me

Cause it has a good student support system

[cosmic dagger]

thats a huge thing

[calm wagon]

This year 3

[cosmic dagger]

total

[calm wagon]

And 1 in

Ib8

Wait

Gimme a sec

[cosmic dagger]

total ib + ap?

and what about predicted ib this year?

[calm wagon]

Dropped it beginning of this year

[cosmic dagger]

bruh 💀

[calm wagon]

Extenuating circumstances going on

Dawg

[cosmic dagger]

ohhhh

[calm wagon]

I know

[cosmic dagger]

ok that's fair

talk about that in your additional informatino section

[calm wagon]

Like I think I jus got peer pressured

[cosmic dagger]

bc i had some stuff like that freshman year and my grades werre lower bc of that, so you could talk ab in ur college app

[calm wagon]

Cause people were telling me I was too stupid to do ib

[cosmic dagger]

bruh why would you listen to others

[calm wagon]

But it didn’t make sense cause I was accepted into ib out a pool of applicants

[cosmic dagger]

especially in school

they are all snakes

[calm wagon]

I just did it to take more classes I wanted and partially due to that

But hear me out

[cosmic dagger]

if you learn one thing in life its that you'll make a couple good friends but a lot of people in high places are there because they're snakes

[calm wagon]

With my ibs and APs after this year

If I can average atleast an A- across all ap/ib classes

My weighted becomes a 4

[cosmic dagger]

no shoot for a+

[calm wagon]

No I am

[cosmic dagger]

study as hard as possible get rid of your phone

[calm wagon]

I’m just saying

[cosmic dagger]

what's your intended major

[calm wagon]

Engineering

More specifically cs 💀

But right behind it is applied math

[cosmic dagger]

have you taken ap calc bc

[calm wagon]

And uva seems to be the only school I can find applied math for

[calm wagon]

Couldn’t

Could only take ab

And that’s this year

Bc was online

And I can’t do online

[cosmic dagger]

so you don't know real math yet

[calm wagon]

My iep specifically states that I need to be in all in person classes

I just don’t want to let my iep basically define me

[cosmic dagger]

apply va tech for engineering and try to transfer if you really hate it is what i would recommend because imma be real w u, uva is gonna be really diff for an applied maths major if you haven't taken calc bc or competed in math events

[calm wagon]

Cause I want to show that u I don’t need it

[cosmic dagger]

you could talk ab that in one of your essays

[calm wagon]

Yeah but people are saying VTech engineering is hard

Like really hard to get into

Even my engineering heavy academy friends

[cosmic dagger]

not as hard as uva

[calm wagon]

Aren’t applying straight up

[cosmic dagger]

va tech last year engineering acceptnace rate was 75% bro.

i think you got this

actualy. that's because the avg gpa is like 4.1 and avg sat is 1370

so idk if you're at that level but if you're taking sat tmrw grind some panda math or something to get that math score up

[calm wagon]

No but uva is a top priority for me

Like I understand it’s gonna be hard

[cosmic dagger]

uva is def better for applied math but given that you dont have ap calc bc yet or math comps its gonna be just more difficult

[calm wagon]

But out of all the schools in Virginia uva is like 1 in student support services

As someone with disabilities

[cosmic dagger]

like the main question colleges will ask is do you even know what applied math is?

OHH bruh. just talk ab that in your essay and you should be fine

[calm wagon]

😭

[calm wagon]

Applying math to other areas

[calm wagon]

Like I got hit with the wombocombo

Diagnosed w Asperger’s just as recent as last year, adhd, add, and more I don’t want to talk abt

I’m on meds

[cosmic dagger]

nah disabled, urm, disease, or parent death is a cheat code for college apps. it really puts a mental strain and is obv bad on you but it will boost your chances for college apps

[cosmic dagger]

bro's young sheldon

[calm wagon]

I have an iep to cater to my needs so I can be put on the same playing level as the normal students

[cosmic dagger]

gotcha, well good luck in that ig just try to word your essays well and hopefully it all falls in your favor

[calm wagon]

My problem is do I talk about it though??

Like idk how to feel about writing about mental stuff like this

In my essay

Cause like won’t AOs see that as bad

Or something

[cosmic dagger]

yes, otherwise you're limiting your opportunities because you're not talking about something significant that impacted your academic abillities

[calm wagon]

Like it’s a hindrance?

[calm wagon]

So I should do that for my CAPS essay? Or the additional info)

?

Cause my original essay was about legos

[calm wagon]

Like should they rb my personal statement or my additional info section?

That*

Cause I want to get into uva because of the schooling and because of the support services I’ll be receiving as someone who is autistic and all that stuff

Like I am normal like I don’t let me being autistic define me yk it’s just when I try to ignore it when it clearly does end up being a problem or hindrance to certain situations

[cosmic dagger]

depends

[calm wagon]

That’s when I have to acknowledge it’s a part of me

[cosmic dagger]

if you want to talk about legos you can but additional information is where i included my extenuating circumstances freshman year

although they're not as big as yours

so it really depends on how much you think it matters

[calm wagon]

Colleges do look over it?

Like would they consider it a hindrance?

Like if it’s something “bad”

Cause my stats aren’t bad by all means but they aren’t tippity top good either

Like a 3.6 uw 3.85 w
Test optional
Decent ECs
2 APs this year 2 in total
Past 3 years 7 IB classes taken
Only one ib exam taken which I got a 5/7

Haven’t taken the other exams bc it was planned for me to take them all my senior year but that screwed up things cause I ended up dropping out ib senior year

Also 1DE class too…

[cosmic dagger]

they're fine, but i think uva might be difficult

[calm wagon]

Yeah just fine 😭

What r urs

[uneven carbon]

I really doubt that

It’s probably in the thirties

[calm wagon]

What r ur stats

[ornate spear]

Who applied for Jefferson’s?

[calm wagon]

What r ur stats if I don’t mind me asking

[uneven carbon]

4.1 W, 3.78 UW, 1480 superscore

[ornate spear]

Wanna know if you got the move to regional email?

[velvet minnow]

Wdym

Everyone should get an email once your app has been reviewed

[woven brook]

keep the legos essay but talk ab ur disabilities in additional info

@calm wagon ur stressing so much. if uva is ur super dream school i’d do cc for a year then transfer. the in state cc transfer acceptance rate for uva is like 66%. you’d just have to make sure u take certain classes and get a 3.5+.

[ornate spear]

Oh I didn’t know LMAO

[calm wagon]

Really?

How did you find out about that?

[calm wagon]

Shiit very cool

[calm wagon]

Like I know for a fact my stats are subpar for uva but in general they’re not rlly bad as I have a 3.6 uw and basically a 3.9 weighted which isn’t horrible at all but apparently for like uva standards it isn’t the best

[woven brook]

talked to the transfer admissions counselor

[cosmic dagger]

35 act 4.6 gpa 23 ap's couple b's mostly a's, lots of ec's

[cosmic dagger]

nah check this out

https://imgur.com/nMZDaOS

really hgh ar

[velvet minnow]

Weak

[cosmic dagger]

[turbid garnet]

[calm wagon]

🙁

[calm wagon]

I mean yes I could do that, but

My parents don’t like that 😭

[uneven carbon]

Isn’t that overall

[uneven carbon]

23???

Damn

How

[woven brook]

i forget va is bigger than nova lmfao

[bold zodiac]

yeah

even if you spend two years at a cc its guarenteed to transfer to any va state school, including uva

need like a 3.4 or smth and to take a bunch of classes

[cosmic dagger]
