[molten glen]

What yall do to Chloe up here

The harvard thread is meant to transcend the Neanderthals in Yale and Columbia

(And all other threads)

[fair rampart]

Lmfao

[blazing kite]

that wasn't funny.

EXECUTE HIM!

[molten glen]

you know what’s NOT funny

Getting a slack message at 3 am

[blazing kite]

ok we get it u work at amazon. should we throw a party. do u wanna invite mr bezos

[molten glen]

yes

so much free food from parties at zon

you should really try to join once you drop out

security guard team always hiring

[blazing kite]

ok so basically jazzy got banned after cooking on the harvard intl situation and then we were like "omg chloe bring awareness queen" and then like yeah

[molten glen]

Yall banned my pimp jazzy J

[blazing kite]

name a time and place we are scrapping in the fall

YES PIMP JAZZY J 💔

[molten glen]

Lol

[restive raft]

Im crying

[fair rampart]

Pimp is wild

[blazing kite]

i can almost feel her presence

she's inside all of us

[molten glen]

Do you guys know like why my friend has an iPhone right and it sent blue messages the whole time during the semester, but now he went back to Thailand and the messages r green

Is it just bc he’s intl and I don’t have like intl package with Verizon or is there something I’m doing wrong

[blazing kite]

um did you not see me trying to talk about how jazzy is inside of us . can a girl grieve

[molten glen]

Jazzy will return he cannot be rid

[restive raft]

He might have changed his esim number

[blazing kite]

you forgot the s

[molten glen]

S?

[blazing kite]

she cannot be rid

[molten glen]

huh

[fair rampart]

In front of he

To make she

[molten glen]

Esim number?

Oh lol

[restive raft]

i have two

one for the US and one for asia

[molten glen]

ah shit

Ok so maybe just dm on insta would be best to get into contact

[fair rampart]

Or WhatsApp if you both have it

[restive raft]

Ya just insta dms thats why i talk to mine on there

[molten glen]

insecure

top secret info

[fair rampart]

Fair

[molten glen]

Wtf is an eSIM number

[blazing kite]

its ur ssn just type it here and we'll help

[molten glen]

1-800-988-2300

[fair rampart]

Basically it’s a SIM card but you don’t need a physical version

So you can have multiple on one device

[molten glen]

Ohhhhhhh

Yeah true I have a digital sim but thought you could only have one

[fair rampart]

Idk at least my iPhone lets me have multiple

I think it might be by carrier

[molten glen]

Why would you want multiple tho lol

[fair rampart]

If you go abroad ur gonna get data/text/call charges

I forget who but one of yall said a bit upwards you have a us number and one not us number

Which would make sense if you often go outside the U.S. to said not U.S. region

[molten glen]

Interesting

Going to the Bahamas tmmr am I finna get charged

[fair rampart]

Ik my carrier gives me all of North America in one go

[molten glen]

Verizon?

[fair rampart]

But when I visited Europe once I got a temp eSIM so I did t have to pay like $10 a day

Yeah

[molten glen]

Hmm interesting

I’ll check that out thanks

[reef grove]

no way you shortened amazon to zon 😭

[eager sinew]

bro cannot be that lazy as a software engineer

his whole life is typing shit

cs majors r supposed to have 300wpm

[blazing kite]

oh

well um

[eager sinew]

[eager sinew]

i do not support you

[reef grove]

can you go back in?

[blazing kite]

yall pride month is in like 30 minutes

be nice

[viral thorn]

I’d apply 😎

I don’t know if I count as qualified actually my experience constitutes moderating for Smogon and I don’t know if I’ve been warned before

[fair rampart]

What calendar are you on

[smoky solar]

yes, probably

if you can't send intl msgs or he can't receive them while outside the US

or like everyone else said, if he changed his SIM

[blazing kite]

mine :3

[hybrid yew]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/s/KDy5hniVTA

the comments on this thread are genuinely peak A2C toxic brainrot 😭

[blazing kite]

i hope they delete the waitlist

[native solar]

one of my (ex) friends who was also rejected from the waitlist along with me was complaining that she wished trump did this a few days earlier

literally blocked her on the spot 😭

[restive raft]

Insane

[eager sinew]

this is kinda dumb imo because you cant change what happened and another domestic student will just take the spot anyway

like acknowledge how fucked it is but dont screw yourself over with something you cant change

[balmy thorn]

Anyone who got rej from wl what major were u

[native solar]

biomedical engineering

idk why i applied as that 💀

i realized after submitting all of my apps for biomedical engineering that i don’t want to do that 💀💀

but don’t they not admit by major??

idk i may be wrong

i thought it was just based on geographic diversity and stuff like that

[balmy thorn]

They consider major still

But im js asking cuz ik they look at wl by groupings

[obsidian nexus]

LMAO

REAL

[reef grove]

they don’t admit by major no

you don’t declare a major until sophomore year

but like if you put down something sciencey i’m sure they’d prolly want to see some science related things on your application

[smoky solar]

some of these comments are insane

[reef grove]

good school

named after a gilded age american dynasty

[blazing kite]

the squirrel to student ratio

if you meant academically . i second good school!

[hoary schooner]

whats vanderbilt

(joking)

[blazing kite]

we are not beating the elitist allegations

[hoary schooner]

speak for yourself

i embrace the allegations

🤗

[zealous cipher]

Wait they sent a reply alr?

How do you check?

I didn't get an email

[balmy thorn]

On the 15th

So far ik some people that had env sci and bme as getting rej, and some cs kids getting in

[zealous cipher]

Email?

Well I'm intl so it's likely an auto-reject but I'd at least like a rejection 😭

I applied half a year ago

[balmy thorn]

Portal update I heard

[native solar]

email and portal update

[blazing kite]

so who saw that "what do hypsm kids have that i dont" post

was that a fever dream

[fleet thicket]

lmao what

[zealous cipher]

An acceptance letter.

[fleet thicket]

oh it got deletd

[worn helm]

💀💀💀

yea no talking about the stuff that affects more than a fourth of the university itself

[blazing kite]

oh ur FUNNYYY

[fleet thicket]

does someone have the archived post

[blazing kite]

someone didnt get into any ivies and had to settle at a full ride at a t50 (GOD FORBID!!!!!!!!!) and threw a lil pity party it seems

[fleet thicket]

omg its giving the mit crashout

https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/1jcfwv6/user_crashes_out_on_rapplyingtocollege_because/

[blazing kite]

SCREAMNG

it wasnt that bad but it was def sad

[hybrid yew]

like it’s insane college brainrot to see people’s lives get upended and your first thought is “this may cause waitlist movement in 2028”

[hybrid yew]

it’s so much funnier when i see posts like that now bc im like “it’s just a bunch of normal ass highschoolers” 😭

[blazing kite]

NO LITERALLY

going to visitas was so comforting bc everyone was just... normal

like yall know italian brainrot 🩷

[worn helm]

my roommate put me on❤️❤️

[blazing kite]

tung tung tung sahur or ballerina cappuccina?

[worn helm]

ALL OF THEM

my fav was tralalelo tralala

[hybrid yew]

the dudes i waited out in the cold with bitched to me, my visitas host tried to get me and the other 11 kids (weird situation) drunk, etc. Visitas was so good bc it felt so normal and non-stereotypical

[blazing kite]

stereotypical but in that regular college way tbh

why did they want the prefrosh to drink so bad

[hybrid yew]

nah he was chill

he just kinda said they were trying to get rid of some of their stock (they had a lot) so feel free to take at will

[blazing kite]

they had a . stock ?

[restive raft]

yes a masters still holds weight this is a rlly funny question

[smoky solar]

literally

and the ppl that are like "applying is also fighting for spots, this is the same thing" like bruh

are you AI

have some humanity

[blazing kite]

lets be fr, being this worried about waitlists and its damn near june is sad .. like if you dont just commit to whatever college you got into and move on

[hybrid yew]

like i get it’s easy for us to say, but the people who are super unhappy with their commitment and are desperate for a waitlist probably just built their list around prestige and nothing else

I applied to 11 schools and i would have been thrilled to go to 11 of them

[blazing kite]

i literally didn't allow myself to have any hope for anything that wasn't uf 💜 so i was only active in that thread and nowhere else

like i think if a2cers set realistic expectations then they'd be happier or at least more content with the outcome they receive

[blazing kite]

mind you the waitlists at these prestigious schools are lowkey impossible to get off of

[hybrid yew]

we’re lucky ig bc our state schools were UVA and UF, but even then I had the mindset that UVA wasn’t guaranteed in the slightest so i had to be happy with my backups

[hybrid yew]

exactly

[native solar]

most of us here are prefrosh so none of us can give you a solid answer. rather than boxing yourself into one thing, i would take your time at vandy to really explore what you need to further yourself and what you’re genuinely interested in doing

[reef grove]

i feel like i would be so guilty if i got off the waitlist bc of this

[blazing kite]

i don't think much of anything 💜

[native solar]

if you are interested in a master’s program, then awesome. but harvard is not the end all be all

especially on a premed track

(i keep stalking the harvard chat because princeton is constantly dead)

[reef grove]

common princeton L

[blazing kite]

extremely common princeton L

[fading ginkgo]

Ok buddy

The less yap the more aura

[native solar]

they’re all busy locking in

which is why pton chat is dead

[smoky solar]

honestly the amt of daily discourse over cmu waitlist is

like we have an overenrollment program

i feel like many people see waitlist as a deferral instead of literally a list of people waiting

and think writing one more good essay will get them in

[blazing kite]

this is a funny way to say ur community is mid

[smoky solar]

logistically it is so unlikely

[blazing kite]

isn't cmu waitlist like . 0.3% acceptance rate

i remember being put on it, googling that shit, and going "oh that's a rejection"

[smoky solar]

i don't even know

[blazing kite]

whose side on you on.

[smoky solar]

but it's always scs people asking and scs always overenroll

not that the other schools don't

[blazing kite]

oh yeah as cs i DEFINITELY kept my hopes in hell after seeing that waitlist

[fading ginkgo]

princeton reunions >>>

[native solar]

harvard rejected me after leading me on for 2 months 💔 go tigers rahhhh

[blazing kite]

OH I THOUGHT YOU WERE WITH US LMAOOO

imposter.

[blazing kite]

if the only thing you have to look forward to as a prefrosh is a reunion...

[fading ginkgo]

nah im saying how can the community be mid when the reunions are so much better than every other school's

[blazing kite]

bc that's the only thing they have to look forward to . duh!

[smoky solar]

our reunions win

cmu carnival rahhh

[blazing kite]

ill let you slide bc ur cool

[hybrid yew]

because everyone’s so hype to have left pton 💔

[hybrid yew]

genuinely it’s crazy

[native solar]

save all of this negative energy for harvard v yale

princeton didn’t do anything to u guys ☹️

[blazing kite]

i have more than enough hate in my heart for all of you 🩷

harvard v yale game is 2 days after my birthday im so excited

[hardy sable]

fuck princeton

[fleet thicket]

where is bro going to school

[fading merlin]

mooup our goat

[fading ginkgo]

Probably stanford

[hardy sable]

why didn’t you choose stanford

[eager sinew]

im also a princeton hater

they didnt do anything to me i js dont like yall

[fading ginkgo]

Too far

[viral thorn]

I agree with this I think that people should have accepted where they are going by now

[viral thorn]

But I don’t think it’s fair to expect people to be equally excited for every school

Top ranked schools are also ranked as such for reasons outside of name recognition or prestige, its 100% understandable to be sad because the school you’re attending doesn’t have a specific program or opportunity, maturity is just being able to get over that and accept where you will be attending

[blazing kite]

i think maybe a better way to put it is like... you are applying to these schools. expect to attend one. it could be any of them.

-# even the dookie state school that everyone and their mother attends..... @usf

[viral thorn]

Yeah I agree with this take I don't get people who act like they got rejected everywhere and have nowhere to go to college when they got into multiple safeties

Like you picked those schools and you should be willing and prepared to attend them

that doesn't necessarily mean excited

[blazing kite]

"ugh i am a failure. i only got a full ride to a t50. why am i not good enough for hypsm?"

that post pmo im glad they deleted it

[balmy thorn]

I mean yes but in fairness to them this is all easy for you to say this stuff when you’re going to Harvard bruh

[viral thorn]

i dont

[hybrid yew]

that’s completely fair, i just always get bad vibes from the people who constantly spam about the HYPSM waitlist and act like their current school is just their backup. Like you should be joining admitted students gc’s and finding friends/roommates instead of spending a ton of time worrying about a school you were already not accepted to imo

As i said i know its way easier for us to say though

Except if you’re one of those people complaining about having to “just go to Rice or Vanderbilt”

[viral thorn]

Yeah I don’t fw this at all I think that there’s balance

You can be disappointed and also still make an effort to be excited for ur school

[blazing kite]

you say that but i was literally set on going to my state school for the longest time bc i kept my expectations in hell after submitting my applications. i literally cried when i opened my acceptance to uf but didn't cry for my ivy acceptances bc i literally didn't think it would happen 🩷

my tears ain't even pre-load i was just opening shit like "well its over! we had a good run!"

while we're on this topic though . is anyone else getting that experience of their advice being null bc they're ivy-bound? i could say "make sure to study for your sat!" and the response would be "well you're going to harvard so it must be easier for you" like don't pmo

[viral thorn]

Not going to an Ivy but I think it goes both ways ppl also lend you more credibility when it comes to college app topics

[blazing kite]

you know what fair

[viral thorn]

I get a 50/50 on ppl shading my school or respecting it

ngl

maybe 25/75

i think underclassmen shading a T20 is dumb but they are all very confident about their chances at hypsm so

[native solar]

BRO i was giving some people advice about how to go about the college admissions cycle (general tips and stuff) and they’re always like “ohh that’s super cool… which college are you admitted to btw?” AS IF THE SCHOOL I GO TO GIVES ME SOME KIND OF CREDIBILITY

and when i refused to tell them, they were like “pack it up, you probably go to your community college” and stopped listening to me 💀

[blazing kite]

two sides of the same fuckass coin 💔

proud to be going to cambridge community college!

[sullen haven]

Where are u going

[native solar]

ymu

[sullen haven]

Yale Marymount university?

[native solar]

your mom university 🤓🤓😈

[sullen haven]

Ate

Vibes honestly

Uni is so fun

And so diff

[viral thorn]

raw asf

underclassmen who think they have the right to judge other people for school prestige are another breed

[blazing kite]

this gave me a chuckle

going to clown school i imagine

[fading ginkgo]

I was so dead inside by Ivy day that when I opened my acceptances I didn’t even feel happy I just felt relief

[errant pond]

this is so real 😭 i feel like this is my biggest issue with hs seniors/college freshmen offering consulting services

like your sole qualification is getting into a prestigious college but you don’t know whether you got in because or in spite of something

[hoary schooner]

so deadass real

[blazing kite]

offering consulting services btw . send $100 and ill just dm you an invite link to this server

[blazing kite]

also watching elise pham videos lowkey just made me overthink more like DAMN wdym follow a formula??

[blazing kite]

i had cried everything out 30m prior to opening decisions ngl 🩷

[viral thorn]

I feel like the standards for a low acceptance rate have been weirdly inflated too, people ik were talking about how Cornell/Northwestern/Vanderbilt/Dartmouth are “easy” to get into if you have good grades and extracurriculars and I was like huhhh 😭

[native solar]

YEAHHG people rlly think that hypsm are the only difficult top schools to get into and the rest are easy

[viral thorn]

I genuinely don’t know how this became a widely held perception like a 7% acceptance rate still means that 93% of students are rejected 😭

[balmy thorn]

Wait I feel like this is okay but maybe I’m biased since I offer it lol

[blazing kite]

you offer a paid consulting service?

[balmy thorn]

Nah free

[blazing kite]

ok that's different

that's just giving advice

[balmy thorn]

Ig but I have a whole kinda program ig

[errant pond]

omg girl i signed up for a consultation with elise pham over the summer and instead of getting her i just got a random person that worked with her 😭 and they also sent me a testimonial folder and most of the testimonials were screenshots from like the same 4-5 applicants

[errant pond]

oooo 👀 if it’s totally free then that’s really cool

[blazing kite]

matriculate is the loml

[blazing kite]

thinking about how i may actually see homegirl irl in the flesh .

[errant pond]

HELPPP OMG

THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY LMAOOOO

pls let us know if that happens

lowkey i wonder what it’s like being classmates with her

[blazing kite]

i heard she's like . not the nicest but also not the meanest

[balmy thorn]

Ye I applied to matriculate for next year!

[balmy thorn]

Yup it is!

[fair rampart]

Wym

Wouldn’t you have been accepted by now

The apps have been closed for months for college students

Actually I don’t even think you’d be eligible

[blazing kite]

why would they not be eligible?

[fair rampart]

Matriculate doesn’t accept incoming freshmen as advising fellows

You have to be a current freshmen at the time of applying

Or sophomore or junior

Unless the guy’s server roles are just off by a couple years

But I assumed they applied this past year to college

[blazing kite]

i know an application went out to hsfs for ... something

it mightve been that

[fair rampart]

IIRC it was for ambassadors

[blazing kite]

yeah then maybe that's what they meant

[fair rampart]

My last AF interview was about 6 weeks ago

[balmy thorn]

I filled out some form for 2026 idk

[fair rampart]

And MAT turnaround time is dogwater but it’s not that dogwater

[balmy thorn]

Like starting in 2026

For ‘27 app cycle

[blazing kite]

you just signed up for something? 💔

[fair rampart]

They haven’t even started recruiting general AFs for 2026-2027 yet

And typically RAFs are after that

[blazing kite]

what is an raf

[fair rampart]

Returning advising fellow

[blazing kite]

ok tea my af might be one of those

might be he said his hsfs pmo

[fair rampart]

Lmfao fair

I had a bunch ghost me

[blazing kite]

he said his other ones just didn't do jack

i was the favorite 🩷

[fair rampart]

Usually the gist was 2-3 meetings camera off and then no response

[blazing kite]

oh we met consistently 1-2 times a month for a little over a year

that's my day 1

[fair rampart]

That’s nice

Prefer those stories

[blazing kite]

wait what happens if they ghost

do you just not get new ones

[fair rampart]

We’re supposed to contact them over email/text/call for 4 days straight and if still no response we file an unresponsive HSF note at which point they stay on our portals for a bit before dropping off and typically eventually get replaced

One time they replaced one of mine with a girl who had an AF before me but the AF requested she get transferred to someone who had knowledge in a specific area that i very much did not

So no clue why I received the HSF

[blazing kite]

what did she want knowledge on...

[fair rampart]

She was looking for financial aid help which I’ve never been good at especially bc there were some parent loans some schools wanted her to take but she had mentioned her parents weren’t up for it

[blazing kite]

oh . yeah i wouldn't be any help either

at least not before lots of googling

[fair rampart]

My main success story was my HSF who matched with Yale but that was honestly completely her own merit

I barely edited her essay bc I just felt it was solid as it was

I think the most I did was give her a few general narrative pointers

[blazing kite]

yeah that's how it is tbh

i just had my AF for general information bc first gen and also for accountability

[native solar]

PEOPLE ARE THROWING SHADE FOR A FULL RIDE TO VANDY?????

you’re winning in life, don’t listen to others 😭😭🙏

[blazing kite]

wait until they get their results.

all these underclassmen who talked mess about how harvard is easy to get into . trust i WILL be checking your instagram bios next year

[viral thorn]

they like are not real people i think

i fear they suffer from delusion

[blazing kite]

they're a2cers

[hybrid yew]

ppl who do this are legit incomprehensible to me

they the type of kids who'd transfer from Harvard to Princeton bc USNWR says its better

[native solar]

yes guys, transfer to princeton‼️‼️‼️ go tigers rahhhh

[hybrid yew]

that’s completely fair

Credit though Nashville is beautiful

like everyone says it but jfc

[hybrid yew]

just as long as it’s not the new haven school for witchcraft and devil worship

[vapid pulsar]

Facts

[blazing kite]

facts²

yuck fale

[hybrid yew]

glad we can find some common ground

[vapid pulsar]

LOL it’s not like we’re opps

even tho we always shit on each other

[hybrid yew]

yeah but in like a fun way

The only school I have real beef with now is Y*le and MIT Sloane

Woah now…

Lots of words from cambridge community college

[blazing kite]

yeah we need to fight irl

[hybrid yew]

33% of your motto is copied from ours

[balmy thorn]

Looks like Harvard class is full according to someone on cc who called

[willow vapor]

makes sense with what happened at the hearing today

[turbid notch]

Did this acc happen

[blazing kite]

on the a2c reddit. but they deleted it

[fleet thicket]

Ok #1 school in massachussetts

Oh wait...

(Only time I can pretend to like MIT is when shitting on harvard)

[blazing kite]

well there isn't shit in connecticut .

even yale can be #1 in that state

[viral thorn]

previously there was paige bueckers in Connecticut (this is tragically no longer true)

[blazing kite]

my point stands

[viral thorn]

I mean the rest of the uconn women’s basketball team is still pretty based maybe we should award uconn the title of #1 university in Connecticut

[blazing kite]

you know what hell yeah

#1 university in connecticut
-# for wlw.......

[hybrid yew]

this is blatant UConn erasure

they got way more nattys than yale does in the past ten years

[blazing kite]

sorry guys im not sports smart 💔

uconn #1

[molten glen]

@eager sinew yo

Have u gotten ur finaid yet

[eager sinew]

no

idt they do it til like july

[glad eagle]

for pre-o do u know if its like competitive

[fading ginkgo]

boo yale

JD Vance ahhh school

#1 most pretentious Ivy

S tier on the sellout list

[fleet thicket]

and how many nattys does harvard have…

[fleet thicket]

s tier in the sellout list coming from princeton 💀

school has a whole major just for quant

[fleet thicket]

we don’t claim him

[eager sinew]

depends on the pre-o

1/3 of students dont or cant do a pre-o i believe

[blazing kite]

isn't it like 70% do pre-o? if ur fgli, that one isn't competitive

allegedly

[reef grove]

which ones are competitive?

[flat flame]

i heard only half of people who apply for fop get it bc it’s so popular

but i think its lottery

[tribal ingot]

Most are not really competitive at all

as long as you try somewhat on the application you will probably get it

(first yr out door program and first yr arts program)

Also congrats on harvard!

[reef grove]

i think i wanna do the LIFE one

idk why they named them these weird ass names tho 💀💀💀

[reef grove]

yeah i can see why

[broken escarp]

Some pre-os are cult like

[wet owl]

lmfao which ones

[broken escarp]

FOP and LIFE

F@P is cool but very intensive

(Substitute the @ with an A; it triggers automod) (I know it’s a poor name choice)

SPARK is probs the best from what I’ve heard

I did FIP but that’s because I’m internationnel

[blazing kite]

did pre-o applications open?

ik they extended it but i didnt see an update email 💔

[reef grove]

spark isnt a pre o tho

its a completely separate thing

[reef grove]

its not on the my.harvard checklist so i dont think so

[blazing kite]

im so excited to apply for literally everything ugh

[blazing kite]

if u want more pre-o takes ik jazzy has like . all the answers ever. she told me a lot of good stuff on call but i truthfully forgot a LOT of it 💗

[reef grove]

REAL

[blazing kite]

-# except academic advising bc i still havent done those long ass responses . um

[reef grove]

😭

[reef grove]

honestly what helped me was doing speech to text

i did half of it normally, went to save it, and the entire thing deleted

so i just speech to texted what i remembered and proofread it

very effective and i didnt have to type a whole lot

[blazing kite]

oh ur so smart u should go 2 harvard i think

[reef grove]

no way why didnt i think of that

[blazing kite]

we need to do a meet n greet

august pls hurry i want to see all my new friends

[flat flame]

oh that’s so smart

how much did u write for each one

i should start 💀

[reef grove]

around 200-300 words per but im a yapper

i also found that i gained like 100 words after switching to speech to text

so around like 6-10 sentences for each one

i heard other ppl only wrote 1-5 sentences per tho

[flat flame]

i’m lwk gonna be like them 😭

also i heard that the academic advisors don’t do much

[blazing kite]

for real or for fake

telling me this after i too yapped in the responses

[flat flame]

for real 💀 heard it from my friend who’s a freshman

[molten glen]

You talk to them twice a year mandatorily (talked to mine four times a year)

[blazing kite]

overachiever over here

[eager sinew]

i talk to mine a lot cus shes my proctor too

i be texting her

[wet owl]

imma do this one is it good?

[blazing kite]

does anyone have takes on the host family program bc i ! do not get it 🩷

[broken escarp]

Isn’t it? Though it was

[broken escarp]

Eh I mean

[reef grove]

it’s a 6 week paid internship throughout the month of july

[broken escarp]

It’s good

It’s a lot more useful than it is fun

[reef grove]

you do it in your hometown

whereas the pre os you do after move in around boston

[broken escarp]

I must be confusing that with the other one then

[reef grove]

yeah they’re all abbreviated weirdly

it sounds like it could be a pre o lmao

[broken escarp]

The public service thing

Whatever that is

[broken escarp]

It depends on who yours is

Some advisors are dogshit

[reef grove]

i think it’s LIFE, FOP, F@P, FIP, FYRE, and one other idr

[broken escarp]

Most of the Brazilians have this fuckass one

[reef grove]

FUP

[broken escarp]

She’s very nice

But doesn’t know any class requirements

So your best bet is asking around upperclassmen

Though it depends on your concentration, if it’s STEM, the CAs/TFs are mostly undergrads, so they have the latest information and interdepartmental gossip that can be v useful for picking classes

If it’s social/humanities related then you’re more fucked since student advice can sometimes be outdated

[broken escarp]

Same thing for bio, undergrads can work at labs so they have more complete info

If you’re gov then you have to rely on the IOP mafia for most things…

[wet owl]

ohh

[reef grove]

💔

it’s okay i’m probably going to join the IOP mafia

i’m applying for some of their summer comps

[broken escarp]

Best of luck 💔

[tribal ingot]

Just do fop and call it a day

Everything else is fake and can be experienced when you’re an undergrad

I guess fop can too if you join harvard outdoor club but still

1 week with incoming freshman in middle of nowhere with no devices (except cameras) is buss

plus you get to carry backpacks, sing songs, and get cool views

They have different level backpacking (easy, med, hard) so you can choose whatever level you want

[tribal ingot]

Do you go here?

Idt i ever saw you, but i haven’t messaged in here for a while

[blazing kite]

fop is the only paid pre-o at $475 btw

-# they subsidize based on aid but if ur aid is . questionable . and you dont have the money . its a thing to keep in mind

[tribal ingot]

There is fin aid and you can borrow gear from them, i think the gear cost is included in the total cost but if you borrow it and return you pay nothing

[blazing kite]

yeah thats what i said in the little side note text

but i am NOT doing fop . its too outdoorsy for me

[tribal ingot]

Fair

Sleeping on the tarp under the tent on the edge was one of the best sleeps I think i ever got in my entire life

[molten glen]

Oh yeah I just meant official meetings. I texted mine a lot while making my final class decisions

[reef grove]

well yeah but isn’t it like a bunch of ppl that do it

like camping is fun but if i have to do it with like 100 other ppl???

that’s kinda crazy

i wanna do LIFE but yeah i’m getting what you’re saying

[tribal ingot]

No

you’re split into groups of 7-8 people

[blazing kite]

im signing up for fup/fyre, i wanted to do life but i heard its a LOT of presentations and workshops . like a LOT

[tribal ingot]

There’s like 500 people that do fop total and then like 50 groups that go to different places/hikes

you meet in front of widener and get sorted into your group the day before you leave and meet everyone and your group leaders

usually there are 2 group leaders and then 7-8 undergrads so total 10 people

[blazing kite]

isnt there no showering during fop

[eager sinew]

gotta get used to it if youre majoring in cs

[blazing kite]

ur funny but im going to be a minority and shower

[reef grove]

i might put FOP as second choice in that case, but i don’t think it’s the kind of pre o you get put in unless it’s your top pick lmao

it’s just too popular

[molten glen]

I’ve heard FYRE is fun but the leader grsduated which is sad one of the leaders was an absolute G

[broken escarp]

If FIP wasn’t so important I’d have just skipped tbh

That’s what my friend’s roommate did

Cause the so called berg window (the time you get to sit at any table and make friends at the freshman dining hall) is pretty wide I’d say

[molten glen]

Wdym

Isn’t FIP the arts one

[broken escarp]

Personally I think FOMO was the most effective convincing mechanism for me

[broken escarp]

No

That’s F@P

FIP is international

[blazing kite]

darn

[broken escarp]

F@P is insane tho

Such an intensive schedule

[blazing kite]

i heard theyre all kinda weird but i dont gaf

[broken escarp]

I’d never do that

[broken escarp]

Yeh kinda

From what I’ve seen one’s social life will be mostly determined by: a) your nationality/ethnicity or which region you come from the US; and b) the quality/cohesion of such national/regional/ethnic group

For example:

• Latin Americans (except Brazilians) can either join the Mexico association (HUMAS) (if they’re Mexican), but that’s a horribly disorganized group; or the organization for LatAm (HOLA), which is infested by private school rich kids from LatAm (and Spain lol) and is pretty elitist

But intl’s mostly hang out with intl’s and vice-versa

There’s also a few regional mafias (Texans and Californians)

Or concentration-based social options (like HMUN and HNMUN, I absolutely recommend doing at least one if you’re into Model UN or wanna try something out)

[molten glen]

You’ve yet to say my group 😔

[blazing kite]

oh i meant the fyre leaders but yeah <3

everyone has a spot

[broken escarp]

Still on this, student orgs are massively hit or miss even within their ranks. For instance, your immediate superiors and high ranking student staff can make or break your experience. In a same org I got to travel to Prague for free and work my ass off in a term to simply having two meetings and no presentations in another

[broken escarp]

Which one

[broken escarp]

Oh yeah but all the pre-o upperclassmen volunteers err on the side of cringeness

Usually, at least

I’ve met some pretty amazing people that way though

But most are these HUA people

So yeah…

[blazing kite]

whats wrong with them....

[broken escarp]

Overachieving self absorbed people

Even more so than the average undergrad

Of course, I’m making somewhat hasty generalizations but that’s the fun in giving out advice 😍

[blazing kite]

you know what hell yeah

[blazing kite]

is hua like . exclusive . is that why theyre like that

[broken escarp]

Kinda

Elections are always weird

People don’t bother with it anymore

In fact the previous representation entity (the Council) was dismantled by two co-presidents who ran on a ticket defined by “this thing is a mess and is more annoying than useful let’s end it”

So the current HUA is a less powerful student gov thing

But since Harvard people are obsessed with glitzy titles there are always a couple of tickets on the ballot

[wet owl]

why is it so important?

[broken escarp]

They take you to do important stuff (get a US phone number, open up a bank account, etc)

And teach you the basics of life in the US

[wet owl]

ohhh get it

thank u!

[broken escarp]

You can do these things on your own but they’re significantly easier to do within FIP

[broken escarp]

Np 🙏

[glad eagle]

i want to do fop but like if its competitive...

[reef grove]

i mean worst that can happen is you get your second choice

[glad eagle]

true

do they allow second choice

[blazing kite]

yeah, everyone gets a ranked 1 and 2 choice

is everyone interested in fop here just... regular campers/backpackers/hikers? i feel like im missing something

[flat flame]

i’m not even an outdoors person it just seems fun lol

the closest thing i do is indoor climbing

[reef grove]

week long no phone retreat sounds pretty sweet ngl

i’m going for LIFE tho

[blazing kite]

it does . but

[glad eagle]

ive never been actually camping

lmao

[glad eagle]

yes this but im gonna need to get a digi

someones gonna have to keep up w my two snap streaks tho cuz theyre 700 days and i cant lose them.

[lofty hamlet]

https://tenor.com/view/purdue-pete-gif-25128170

hallo

[glad eagle]

hello

whos planning on doing fop??

[flat flame]

me me me

i’m putting first choice as site based

[flat flame]

me neither 💀

[glad eagle]

yayy

my first choice is backpacking lmaooo

[flat flame]

i thought about it but ngl future me without running water and a bed would be mad at current me

[reef grove]

7-9 hours of hiking seems brutal

[blazing kite]

SEE this is why im doing . literally anything else

i get lightheaded so easily too . id rather not have my first time in front of my peers end in an urgent care visit how embarrassing

[worn helm]

it lowkey is 😭😭

but it’s fun

i heard there was like a 40 something percent acceptance rate last year bc so many people wanted to do it

[balmy thorn]

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/06/04/trump-bans-harvard-international-students/84038655007/

New EO…

[glad eagle]

i think u can choose the opt thats 4-6 tho canr u

[cinder zenith]

Ugh

[balmy thorn]

It got blocked so all good

[reef grove]

temporarily

this is separate from the visa thing from a couple weeks ago

this one is an executive order that specifically targets incoming freshmen

[reef grove]

i’m not abt to do good on this math placement exam

calculus without a calculator 😭 i’m fried

[flat flame]

i’m procrastinating it

lmk how it goes lol

is there mvc on it? idk how far up it goes

[reef grove]

if there is it isnt on the list of things to expect lol

only the first one is required apparently

[flat flame]

oh alr that’s not bad

although i forgot everything about series 💀 it’s been 2 years

[eager sinew]

thats all of the classes

no harvard calc or linalg class allows a calc 💀

[reef grove]

WHAT

ah hell nah

[flat flame]

EXCUSE ME

[molten glen]

what math class does allow a calculator?

I don't think any lol

Discrete Math doesn't allow it either

[eager sinew]

no idea i assume if u get high enough u might need like a desmos for smth

idt calculators are even helpful for calculus

[molten glen]

nah they def r

[eager sinew]

ive never experienced calculus with a calculator so idk what im missing

[molten glen]

texas instrument calculators specifically can do derivatives and integrals themselves lmao + the graphing functionality

the graphing functionality in specific would make a math 1b exam a piece of cake LMAO

[molten glen]

fair

how is summer 1b?

[eager sinew]

hasnt started yet

starts on 22nd

[molten glen]

oh

[molten glen]

makes sense i was wondering why you still seemed happy

[reef grove]

i’m still reeling from the no calculator thing

i’m gonna have to wave a teary goodbye to my ti 84

all my little programs, no longer used

[molten glen]

yeah no ti-84s

you can use it on the psets tho in ur dorm

but i would highly recommend not, or else you lknow you don't know how to do it on the exam

@dreamy lynx does stat 110 let u use a calculator?

[dreamy lynx]

no

[blazing kite]

bye i literally begged for mine with the justification that id use it for college

[dreamy lynx]

no need icl

it wouldn't help at all

[wet owl]

wtffff

not even a simple calc just for basic stuff😭

[lyric sky]

Have you guys met john harvard yet

[worn helm]

nope 😔

[molten glen]

my grandpa? ofc

[molten glen]

in stat 110? yeah probs not unless you're bad at basic arithmetic

I won't lie to you @dreamy lynx, on my last final exam I messed up the order of operations LMAOOO

[broken escarp]

@molten glen guess who’s taking discrete math

Next term

[dreamy lynx]

It’s okay I messed up like most of my finals🥀

[molten glen]

u

[wet owl]

im cooked 💀

[worn helm]

nahh you’ll be fine dw

what are u studying

[molten glen]

I believe he is studying CS/MechE

could be wrong tho

I mean tbh most of the arithmetic necessary wasn't actually difficult until some questions in discrete math. Altho this may not be a problem for ya'll bc it stems from my lack of good educational background lol

[worn helm]

yea lowkey i didn’t take discrete so can’t comment

but 1b is doable no calc

sometimes they’ll ask you just to set up the integral without having to solve bc they realize you don’t have a calc

[wet owl]

Electrical Engineering

CS minor

[worn helm]

you’ll be fine twin

[molten glen]

@worn helm have u heard anything about the intl? Like is harvard telling them to come back early/now before they go to like trial?

I’m worried abt my friend

He’s a G and if anyone deserves to be at harvard it’s fr him

[worn helm]

haven’t heard much yet. i’m in the INTL gc and they’re just as unsure as I am

what some people are doing is they’re trying to stay on campus to not have to re-enter and potentially be shut out

nobody in the gc has been shut out yet, most likely because trump’s exec orders keep getting blocked

harvard is suing so we have to wait and see

i have some intl friends who went back home, they’re also just waiting to see if they can get back when the semester starts

everything is sorta in limbo rn which sucks bc it’s just wait and see

[molten glen]

Mine said he got notified he couldn’t return and I was like whatchu mean bitch

[worn helm]

notified how so?

[molten glen]

Dept of whatever

[worn helm]

😬😬

[molten glen]

State

[worn helm]

was it an email from the federal gov?

[molten glen]

Yur notification regarding his visa

Maybe it wasn’t that tho he might just not know a lot abt like the wording US Gov used and it’s probably just propaganda meant to scare

[worn helm]

right it might be some trump fear mongering bs

because i haven’t heard of this email sent to anyone else

your friend is on F1 right?

as of now, I don’t think any f1s have been cancelled but not completely sure

if i were him, i’d try to reach out to the intl office and show them the email

i’d also tell him to ask of he should come back to harvard rn while the executive orders are currently blocked

[worn helm]

because what if he passes another order and ur friend can’t return in the fall

wishing the best for him tho

[molten glen]

Ik

I told him to contact harvard intl office and asked if he was thinking abt coming back now before they actually go to trial

I can’t text him tho for some reason now so I DMed on insta

[worn helm]

ohh okay

yea that was a good move

[molten glen]

Something about esim or whatever

[worn helm]

keep me updated 🙏🙏

[eager sinew]

guys never move all ur shit from the yard to leverett

leverett is too far when ur carrying 3 suitcases and then boxes

[reef grove]

damn how much stuff do you have 😭

hopefully i’ll be able to bring all my stuff in one car ride

[eager sinew]

bro i came here with just the 3 suitcases and now i have an additional 5 boxes and 3 bags

this dresser jump scared the fuck out of me when i first walked in

its basically in front of the door atp

[reef grove]

lmaoooo

is your new room nice at least?

[eager sinew]

its fine 💀

i like it

[blazing kite]

ok skinny

[eager sinew]

bigger than my other room

[reef grove]

that feels like a big ass bed for a college dorm

[blazing kite]

BIGGER?

[reef grove]

maybe i’m tweaking tho

[eager sinew]

yeah i got so much space here now

[blazing kite]

maybe its the hallway that's making me think its small

that big ass dresser..

[reef grove]

dyk if we’re able to change the chair that we get 💀 i love my chair

[eager sinew]

heres a bed eye view

[blazing kite]

oh yeah that's BIG

but move the dresser good god

[eager sinew]

aint no where to put it 😭

other than like scoot it over a lil

[blazing kite]

maybe switch it to where the desk is in that corner

[reef grove]

if you turn the bed would the dresser fit next to it?

i’m not a good interior decorator 💀

[eager sinew]

i have a problem with not being able to see all corners of the room

if i move it theres gonna be atleast one blind spot when i sleep and i could be murdered fr

[reef grove]

real

how do y’all have little suns next to ur names

i want one ;-;

oh nvm i got it

[molten glen]

Lol

@eager sinew is that just summer housing or did u get lev I don’t remember

[eager sinew]

summer housing

i got quincy

[vapid pulsar]

that room is so tiny

[worn helm]

3 suitcases and boxes are lowkey reasonable to fit in 1 car

hop off my boy kace

[wet owl]

Im int Idek how much stuff I need to bring😭

some people told me that I wont need more than 2 checked bags but judging but the insta stories there seems to be a lot going on😭

[blazing kite]

im not bringing more than 2 checked bags so we can twin

if i need anything that bad ill get it on break or buy it atp

[reef grove]

depending on when we get our roommates u could probably talk and coordinate who brings what

[wet owl]

For the dorm stuff most of my friends told me to order from amazon/buy there

[wet owl]

haha good

but for clothes Im not sure how much ill need tbf

[blazing kite]

if ur an average civilian, enough for washing every 2 weeks is the rule i heard

but if ur more fashionable . cant help you there

[eager sinew]

bed eye view now

[reef grove]

whats the difference between taking expos20 and hum10+10b?

is one harder than the other or better for humanities majors

[dreamy lynx]

expos 20 everyone takes

hum 10 is if you love reading

or humanities

idk I didn't touch it at all too much reading

[reef grove]

apparently u dont have to take expos 20

[dreamy lynx]

if you take hum 10 I think

[reef grove]

hum 10+b counts for the requirement

if u take both semesters

[dreamy lynx]

yeah but that is just like

more work

[reef grove]

lmao

[dreamy lynx]

unless you want to take hum 10

I wouldn't do it to fill a one semester req lol

[reef grove]

icic

[worn helm]

they read a book a week in hum10 sooo😬😬

[reef grove]

bro that’s crazy

not bc of the reading schedule but like, how can you have a productive discussion about a book in only a week

like i feel the discussions would have to be very general and face-value

you can’t really analyze the book chapter by chapter if you read it all at once

[worn helm]

i agree

i may be exaggerating but that’s what the students in it told me

[wet owl]

Is physics 15 bad?

the reviews on the q report are not that great

[molten glen]

Brah

Why would you take two classes

[reef grove]

because im not a STEM major 💀

i enjoy reading and writing

and it will benefit my career

[eager sinew]

voluntary suffering

[molten glen]

Hum10 someone took it and they assigned reading the week before class started

[reef grove]

bro has never heard of summer reading

[blazing kite]

this convo is literally what the stem vs humanities memes were talking about

cs majors cant read (NOT fake news)

[molten glen]

What r u talking about

You read THE WEKE BEFORE and then have to discuss and write a full paper on ur first week

LOL

[dreamy lynx]

yeah sounds like hum10

would've expected them to make you read all through the summer icl

[reef grove]

weke is crazy work

with the way i was procrastinating over the summer that seems completely normal to me 💀

also that writing placement exam was sooooo bad

7 hours of staring at my screen typing

five for the actual timed part and two for the pre-exam 💀

[flat flame]

SEVEN???

wait don’t all freshmen have to take seminar or smth

what is this for

[reef grove]

whether you take expos 10 or 20

[molten glen]

Nah seminars r optional

[flat flame]

oh

what’s the difference

more reading?

[flat flame]

oh

[reef grove]

expos 10 means you take that class plus expos 20 next semester

expos 20 means you only need to take one semester

so you skip 10

[flat flame]

ohhh ok

is the placement exam like ap lang

or lit

[reef grove]

uhhhhhg

neither really

i suppose more like lang

[flat flame]

ah alr is it a few long essays or more shorter pieces

[reef grove]

https://writingprogram.fas.harvard.edu/writing-exam

i don’t want to say smth i shouldn’t so i’ll just give you the link to the general info haha

[flat flame]

haha tysm

i’m procrastinating but i should do it tmr

[reef grove]

it’s like a half a day affair, brace yourself before you do it lmaoooo

[flat flame]

i have my drivers test in the morning so i’ll prob do it after

if i fail i’ll prob be too sad to do it

why am i highkey scared for my driving test

[flat flame]

are there any breaks

[worn helm]

the what😬😬

[worn helm]

wow you did tooooo much 😭

[reef grove]

you can kinda take a break whenever you want

they say the exam only takes 2-3 hours but they give you 5 for when your brain starts to hurt lmao

[reef grove]

i want to be placed in expos 20 💔

[worn helm]

save the 7 hours of writing for the actual class twin 💔

it’s possible to write a few sentences and still get placed in 20

[flat flame]

oh that sounds great

looking forward to it

[reef grove]

😭😭😭

[wet owl]

I wrote 2000 words

some people wrote 4000 lmfao

[wet owl]

Is it true that only X% get an A?

[reef grove]

🙋‍♀️

[wet owl]

I ran out of things to talk about

but I hope I dont get expos 10

[reef grove]

even if you do you can talk your way into expos 20 by talking to your academic advisor

[blazing kite]

i thought it was 5 hours... wtf is a pre-exam

i haven't taken a proper english class since sophomore year its so over

[reef grove]

the actual timed exam is 5 hours, but there’s like an honor code reflection and a survey as well

[blazing kite]

honor code reflection sounds so fancy

[reef grove]

ikr

i thought i would just have to check a box that was like “yeah i won’t plagiarize”

nope 💔

[blazing kite]

WAIT THAT SHIT TOOK A WHOLE EXTRA 2HRS??

ykw put me in expos 10 i am not writing allat

[blazing kite]

sorry for feeding into the stereotype but not really

[reef grove]

i think two hours is pushing the envelope for how long it should take ngl

i just yapped a lot

you could prolly get it done in like 20-30 mins

[worn helm]

depends on the class but technically there’s no hard cap

my teacher said she could give everyone in the class A’s theoretically

but yk she didn’t

[dreamy lynx]

I did honor code and survey etc in like 10 mins

it's not that deep

[blazing kite]

what the fawk were ur writing 💔

[reef grove]

clearly too much

hey man if i have nothing better to do let me spend 7 hours on a placement exam 💔

maybe they’ll think i’m so good they’ll create a new expos and put me in that one

expos 30

[blazing kite]

you have NOTHING better to do ??

[blazing kite]

imagine they put you in 10

[reef grove]

expos 5 💔

[blazing kite]

BYE

expos kaz 💜 ur own class!

[reef grove]

say it ain’t so 💔

[wet owl]

it took me an hour and a half 😭

[wet owl]

ohh thank you!

[blazing kite]

what are yall writing 😭💔💔

[worn helm]

np

take expos w Dr Baca if you want a good time

[wet owl]

haha thanksss

I want an A that's p much it😭

[wet owl]

for the pre exam part I was still fully awake so I yapped a ton of sutff

but it was super late when the actual test started and i wrote whtv

[worn helm]

yea take her class then

[wet owl]

thanku!

[blazing kite]

who else hasn't done the placement exam

[reef grove]

i haven’t done the math one

[flat flame]

i haven’t done the writing one

[blazing kite]

i haven't done either 🩷 you two make me whole

ill see what i can do after work . pray for me chat

[reef grove]

pooled together we’ve done one complete exam 💀

procrastination >>>

[blazing kite]

ill break this bad habit... later

[flat flame]

fr

except you’ve done the worse one

i’ll start after lunch wish me luck lol

[reef grove]

speak for yourself 😭 i’m a gov major 💔 yapping is part of the job description

calculus is not

[flat flame]

oh i’m a stem major LOL

i forgot so much of the content in part 3 it’s insane

i am not a yapper unfortunately

[blazing kite]

so fun fact it says you can skip the sections you dont know so just dont do the calculus ones

i think its 3 sections and 2 are calculus so just do the 1st one which (according to the website) is basic math

[flat flame]

yep

the first section is like sat math

second is calc 1/calc ab

third is calc 2/calc bc

[turbid notch]

Should I review polar

[reef grove]

well yeah but i don’t wanna be placed into the lower math classes yk

but tbf it’s all recommendation anyway

i could just ignore my placement

[reef grove]

give me 30 power rule questions and i’m acing the test

anything else and i’m a goner

[flat flame]

nope

although my friend said the results for math dont matter

and u can take whatever u want

[flat flame]

yeah that’s what my friend did lol

[blazing kite]

how low are we talking

[reef grove]

anything below 21 lmao

i want to be in the big box

not the small diamonds

actually wait 18 sounds dope

[flat flame]

i’m prob gonna end up in 21a or b

[reef grove]

i’m hoping for at least 1a 💀

i was so bad at calc bc tho

and i did it junior year too so idr much

[blazing kite]

where did u find this....

[blazing kite]

as a gov major why do u need hard math (gen question idk shit about majors that aren't mine)

[reef grove]

https://www.math.harvard.edu/media/Math-for-first-year-students-2021-2022.pdf

[reef grove]

i don’t need to take any math technically

i have a “quantitative reasoning” requirement that could be fulfilled by basically any econ/pol sci class

but just bc it’s not my major doesn’t mean i don’t wanna learn abt it yk

i wanna take as many challenging classes as possible to explore a bunch of different avenues

bc i might end up liking math more than gov, i can’t know until i try yk

and i want to place high so that i don’t close any doors prematurely

[blazing kite]

bye im just tryna get placed in 1a 💔

as a cs major mind you

[blazing kite]

i love this for you

[flat flame]

wait trust part 1 isn’t bad at all it’s out of 30 and the stuff is all content prior to precalc like algebra

if u did decently on sat math ur def getting into at least 1a

[blazing kite]

OH THANK GOD

used to pray for times like this

that just motivated me to take it thanks bookie

[flat flame]

lol anytime u got this

i believe in u

does the writing exam actually take 7 hours 😭

i’ve been trying to mentally prepare myself and actually start the test but idk if i can do 7 hours

[blazing kite]

its supposed to take 2-3 unless ur long winded as all hell

[flat flame]

im trying to decide how much i should yap

or if concise and to the point is better

im not a yapper sadly

[blazing kite]

whatever answers the question i fear

[flat flame]

sob
