course-selection

[cinder gorge]

Then dont take aps?

[wary heath]

But I also want to get a higher GPA

[cinder gorge]

De

Do more classes with good grades if u want a higher gpa

[wary heath]

AP's give you more credits and makes you're college ap look good

[cinder gorge]

Not if ur taking random ones

That no one cares about

[wary heath]

I can't just take random ones

[cinder gorge]

Then dont

[wary heath]

But I have to

[wary heath]

Do you even take any AP's?

[cinder gorge]

for?

[cinder gorge]

not this yr cuz of reasons, next yr im doing 4

[wary heath]

Good for you

[wary heath]

But why are you taking so many AP's?

[cinder gorge]

so many?

its not many

its just 4

ik people whos doing 7

[wary heath]

4 is many to me

[cinder gorge]

good for u

[wary heath]

Which AP's are you taking?

[cinder gorge]

mt, bio, lang, apush

senior yr is 5

i alr know half of mt, i practically know all of ap bio, im a TA for apush so i just need to focus on lang next yr

[wary heath]

Well you're already set then

This year I only took AP chem

[sharp wigeon]

from my experience lang, apes, gov, euro, hug, psych, macro/micro econ are pretty easy

[hollow finch]

AP Psych, Apes, ap hug, ap gov, ap comp Sci principles, ap stats

[silent tinsel]

What you guys think about the study pressure with five ap at school and self studying 2 by myself

[cerulean socket]

if you can handle it good

[silent tinsel]

Is apes and psych easy?

[austere tulip]

Ok first of all, check pins about trying to take as many Aps. AND PLEASE do not just take all the APs for the sake of taking them. There should be some that you are passionate about. i think this stuf about taking "easier APs for higher gpa" can be dumb and that being willful enough to take REAL AP courses(meaning the actually difficult ones) is also good practice, because sometimes it's also about learning

Of course, if you have like 2 APs that challenge you

and then 2 you're taking that are easy that's fine

But yeah it wouldn't benefit you taking the easy way out

[austere tulip]

Yeah

[austere tulip]

But all high schools don't always give higher gpa for de

in my school

DE gives you honors credit

AP gives you AP credit

difference: honors is 4.5 and AP is 5.0

[austere tulip]

bro casually has euro in there

Awesome course

idk if it can be called the easiest

[austere tulip]

why are you self studying?

If you have 5 already?

Spend the time in a better way

Colleges will think about what you could've done if you had spent your time doing extracurriculars and enrichment

credits to exotica

[silent tinsel]

Dm me

[sharp wigeon]

Yah probably I am a little biased because I took euro during covid

[wary heath]

I know it's dumb but I'm kind of desperate at this point

[compact plaza]

How come

[cinder gorge]

y?

[austere tulip]

for what?

college?

you realize

ok, you don't get into t20

there's still grad school

and that one can actually matter more

[cinder gorge]

I feel like people nowdays just look at prestige and nothing else

[austere tulip]

yeah

[wary heath]

AP classes often add 1 point. In other words, a 3.5 GPA would be boosted to a 4.0 in an honors class and a 4.5 in an AP class

[cinder gorge]

Then do de

[austere tulip]

DE doesn't have the same credit as ap

[cinder gorge]

For me it does

[austere tulip]

lucky

[wary heath]

I'm already doing de

[cinder gorge]

Then do more?

Im doing 6 next yr soo..

On top of my heavy schedule

[wary heath]

Why are you taking so much classes?

[cinder gorge]

Its just 6

Well.. more like 20 ish

Like 28

Total

[wary heath]

And your school allows you to?

[cinder gorge]

Y not?

Im doing 10 rn

[wary heath]

I don't know seems like a lot of stress

[cinder gorge]

From what

[austere tulip]

huh?

[cinder gorge]

I have 4 in the summer, 12 in fall semester and 13 in spring semester

[austere tulip]

yeah u don't count it like that

unless those are the Des ur taking?

so you're doing 12 college classes along with high school classes in the fall and spring?

That's a big shift from this year

[cinder gorge]

No

Only 6 next yr

Well.. technically 9

Cuz of sa

[austere tulip]

ok well

I think u can get an associate's degree then

by the end of hs

[cinder gorge]

Nope

Its too late

[austere tulip]

oh

Well how many college credits will you end with by the end of jnuor year?

[cinder gorge]

I cant cuz of the 11 credit limit per semester

[austere tulip]

ohh

Which courses are you doing primarily in DE? Are you doing like bio focused ones or math?

[cinder gorge]

This summer is spanish 3, spring semester is spanish 4, idk about fall and the following summer

[cinder gorge]

Im just wanna get my geds done

[cinder gorge]

Via sa, cuz i aint got space in my schedule for a whole yr class

And i still get the seal of biliticery

[austere tulip]

oh ok

[cinder gorge]

take a look

[ripe geyser]

Holy shit Duck is that you?

Either way see pins

[cinder gorge]

i alr mentioned it in the server

[ripe geyser]

What?

the pins?

Well you reposted that question so you also need to repost the info that goes with the pins

[ripe geyser]

Oh wait it is

[austere tulip]

Wait during your senior summer did u set time for college apps?

[cinder gorge]

i have plenty of time in the summmer

[austere tulip]

Also isn't Calc AB an Ap as well

[cinder gorge]

i can stay up whenever and sleep whenever

[cinder gorge]

yeah

i think so

[ripe geyser]

Not the way it works

You do not do your application over the summer as the questions change during the summer

Application season is during hte first semester of Senior year

[cinder gorge]

people said to work on apps during the summer

[ripe geyser]

Consider cooling it on the AP courses during senior year, especailly online AP courses which are just stupid

[ripe geyser]

Yeah but not the kind of work you're thinking about

[cinder gorge]

i think u know me well enough

[cinder gorge]

then what kinda work

[ripe geyser]

The work you're doing is mostly related to getting a college list, calculating how much money you have for college, seeing which unis interest you, and a lot of other shit

[sharp wigeon]

depends on the college. Common app and uc questions don’t change, the most that’ll change is like college specific supps which are usually like 250 words or less unless you’re applying ivies

[austere tulip]

but it continues into senior yr

[sharp wigeon]

You can still work on common app and uc during the summer which are really the main time consumers

[cinder gorge]

what about privates

[austere tulip]

especially if you want a higher acceptance rate then consider early decision/action

[ripe geyser]

That's true but you always want to assume that the questions change, you don't want to be caught with your pants down

[ripe geyser]

EA =/= Better acceptance rates at top unis

At less than tops yes

But for most top unis no

[sharp wigeon]

Privates usually have school specific prompts which do sometimes change year to year but they’re usually all the same variation of “why us” or “why major”

[ripe geyser]

Yeah

Either way you want to give yourself as much time as possible in case the questions do change

You do not want to be caught with your pants down and have to make a choice between getting a couple of Bs first semester of Senior year or getting good essays

My general rule of thumb is that unless the website itself says "we don't change our questions often", do not assume that the questions in the past will be the questions in the present

[austere tulip]

Also uck

duck

yale has LOTS of supplemental essays

along with the common app one

[ripe geyser]

yeye

[austere tulip]

so you will have to do lots of work

[cinder gorge]

mabey, my senior yr isnt offical yet, ima see how i do junior yr and make changes accordingly for senior yr

[ripe geyser]

Duck I would say that you should consider taking a free period of AP Lit and instead do a DE literature course and see if that will count for your English requirements during Junior year

[cinder gorge]

k

[ripe geyser]

If it does that'd be your best bet so you can take a free period at that time period

I would also encourage reducing AP Physics to regular physics if possible and not taking AP Gov/Econ if possible

That's 3 AP exams you'd be taking in 1 class and that isn't exactly the most fun thing

[cinder gorge]

history is manadtory, but ill see if i can do it over the summer

or something, ill figure it out

[austere tulip]

lol my summers can be pretty limited

[sharp wigeon]

Id recommend working it on the summer if you can

I wrote my uc’s a week before and that was a tragic time in my life

[cinder gorge]

this upcoming summer will be chill tho, only like 3 mabey 4 classes, mabey internships, music comps and vounteering

[sharp wigeon]

Or just getting some ideas down don’t have to actually write them just brainstorm and think about it

[ripe geyser]

THat is not chill lol

[cinder gorge]

also, link crew

its going suprisinly well atm

[ripe geyser]

Ik but you might want to take a free summer if you can

[cinder gorge]

i did that last summer, 2 classes and thats kinda it

[ripe geyser]

I know you don't like "doing nothing" but it's something that'll be useful for you. It's your last summer before high school is over and you don't want to end up regretting this over your life

[ripe geyser]

Nah I mean 0 classes and 0 work on ECs

[cinder gorge]

life only happens once, might as well make the best of it yk

[austere tulip]

idk if this is called the "best"

[cinder gorge]

But i might as well take advantage of all the opportunities i have instead of letting someone else take it

[vital olive]

i mean if they’re things you enjoy then it can still be called a free summer

it’s something you want to do

it’s what i try to do with ecs and courses and all that

bc then “work” is fun

[strange sigil]

Hi, can y'all advise on what courses to take in 10th grade (US public sch.)

[cinder gorge]

ap physics

[strange sigil]

Ok, thanks but I'll be taking that in senior yr, any others?

[compact plaza]

Depends on ur options honestly

I dont know ur options

[cinder gorge]

Ap chem

[strange sigil]

Okay

[dusk idol]

I’m going in to 9th grade, should I take Pre Ap and Pre IB classes?

[cinder gorge]

Idk, should u?

[dusk idol]

Idk the school didn’t go over them

[cinder gorge]

Do u want a challenge?

[dusk idol]

I mean my grades last year were good

[cinder gorge]

Wdym by good

[dusk idol]

100s

99s

[cinder gorge]

All of em?

[dusk idol]

Yes

[cinder gorge]

Ok

[dusk idol]

101 in 2 classes

[cinder gorge]

If u want a challenge, then do for it

[dusk idol]

Im already taking advanced math and science

Ok

[ripe geyser]

see pins

[ripe geyser]

Do not take AP Physics without first completing algebra II for AP Physics 1 or 2 and for the Physics C do not do it until you're in calculus

[ripe geyser]

Depends on where you want to go and what you want to do. What are the courses on offer?

[ripe geyser]

AP Chem isn't that useful unless you're in specific fields please look at the pins

@cinder gorge if you're gonna respond to someone please first tell them to look at the god damn pins cause it's a bad idea to suggest a person to take AP Physics if you do not even know what math course they're taking you dumbass

[cinder gorge]

yeah ik lol

i was just trolling

[plain sentinel]

Do i need to take a business class to major in finance/econometrics?

[cinder gorge]

look at the pre req

[median fjord]

depends

I would do IB simply bc u can also take AP exams

but if u take ap u cant do ib exams

but once again up to u

[median fjord]

🔥

[dusk idol]

Pre AP Social Studes

And PreIB English

You need them for the AP and IB

[limpid tree]

Im planning to become a Physician as my career, what should I take in my high school year to help me become one?

[cinder gorge]

everything

[ripe geyser]

Are those the only courses you can take?

[dusk idol]

Well I’m already taking others

Math and science

That’s it 9th grade has little freedom

[limpid tree]

Well i mean like should I take biomedical

[cinder gorge]

should u?

[ripe geyser]

Different schools have different classes so it'll change but generally:
Algebra II (AP Calc or some equivalent would also be liked. If you're in the U.K this is not necessary as this will be an A-Level course)
A stats course
English Lang
A biology course (in the U.K make this one of your A-Levels)
A chem course (in the U.K make this one of your A-Levels)
Human Anatomy/physiology
Psychology

[limpid tree]

Alr

[ripe geyser]

Those are the courses I'd recommend but if you don't have enough time I would suggest you drop Psychology and anatomy

[limpid tree]

Ok

[ripe geyser]

What are the other courses?

And what do you want to do in the future?

[limpid tree]

Thanks

[cinder gorge]

im doing anatomy next yr

online

[ripe geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/nordenson-gif-19287964

[dusk idol]

Intergrated Algebra and Living Enviroment

SPs I’m pretty sure

[ripe geyser]

You only take 4 courses a year?

[limpid tree]

So it would be better to take AP chem?

[ripe geyser]

Only if you've taken AP Bio and/or regular chem first

[limpid tree]

Alright

And also what are the easiest history classes in high school

Like for my freshman year im planning to take Human geography

[ripe geyser]

N/A

HIstory classes vary in difficulty so much lol

[limpid tree]

Damn

[ripe geyser]

Like in my school, our easiest history courses are AP World and APUSH

Which isn't the norm in many other schools

[limpid tree]

My friend told me that A push Human geo os easy

[ripe geyser]

But in both schools I used to go to it was the easier course

[limpid tree]

They said it was a chill class

[ripe geyser]

then take those 2

[limpid tree]

Lmao

[limpid tree]

Kk

[dusk idol]

Well I have Spanish, Orchestra,

But those are just regular classes

[ripe geyser]

What is your full list

I asked for a full list

I want the full list lol

[dusk idol]

Ok chill

[dusk idol]

Pre IB English
Pre AP Social Studies
Orchestra
Spanish 2
Integrated Algebra SP
Living Environment
Gym / Lab
Lunch
Study Hall

[dusk idol]

Here

[ripe geyser]

Is there no pre-IB spanish 2 on offer?

[dusk idol]

No

[ripe geyser]

I would say that with a schedule like that you could try to slop on more pre-ib or ap courses

Other tahn that you're fine

[dusk idol]

School doesn’t offer IB Spanish till like 10th

[ripe geyser]

You should now spend your time relaxing and viewing whatever program you would enjoy I would always encourage people to take the IB but I am also biased

[ripe geyser]

no pre ap spanish either right?

[dusk idol]

Ye

[ripe geyser]

Aite well you're fine

Just consider which program you want to take

General rule of thumb:
If you're applying to a conservative state's state university or to a top50 institution you go for IB, everything else you go for AP

[median fjord]

Nah both is fine

[median fjord]

wtf is a pre ap spanish

AP tryna be like IB 🤓

[ripe geyser]

Pre-IB courses aren't a thing either

IBMYP is not the same as pre-IB

they are very, very different things

pre-IB is dictated by schools like pre-AP

while IBMYP is dictated by the IB and is just sorta there

[median fjord]

??? i never said tha?

that*

[ripe geyser]

Ik but when most people think of pre-IB they think of the MYP

[median fjord]

the fuck you mean they aren't a thing 😭

[ripe geyser]

Like they're not a thing that is standardized

[median fjord]

idk what's the point of telling me that but alr

[ripe geyser]

the IB doesn't recognize pre-IB courses

Like they're not official

Just like pre-AP

They're just sorta there

Some schools make them up and other schools don't

[median fjord]

okay imma stop talking, should have not commented, getting brain damage

you do you 👍 continue with assisting other ppl

[ripe geyser]

cause the very statement you made gave me brain damage

"AP tryna be like IB 🤓"

https://tenor.com/view/snoring-snoring-aneurysm-brain-aneurysm-brain-aww-gif-25678781

[lone silo]

IB MYP is the equivalent to like GCSES

Just before HS

[ancient pendant]

IB MYP also includes KS3 right?

[ripe geyser]

wtf is KS3?

Kids See Ghosts part 3???????

[ancient pendant]

Like y7 to y9?

Like middle school

For uk

[ripe geyser]

Yeye

MYP is just whatever you take between the PYP (between year 1-5 I think) and DP (year 12 and 13)

[cinder gorge]

Inter cranial arterial bleed?

[lone silo]

Yes

But your MYP scores are from yr 10-11

End of yr 11 you’ll write your E-assessments

[cinder gorge]

is ap physc and apes good ap's for med?

[ripe geyser]

They are some of the classes of all time

I think it's important to note that there's no such thing as a "good ap" there's just APs lol

It'll all depend on so many other factors

Like what are you taking them over?

Are you taking AP Physics over a class like Human Anatomy? Cause if you are then that's not a good class

But if there's no other courses to take and you're taking AP Physics over something like art then sure, go off, but nobody will really care in the long run

[cinder gorge]

I want to take something in finance and technology any good collages in UK or India offering bachelors that I can look in at ?

[quasi sparrow]

Is this schedule manageable or no
Honors alg 2
Honors geo
Honors la 10
Chem
Apush
Spanish 4

[cinder gorge]

Idk

[cinder gorge]

im just taking them to fill in spaces cause i dont know what else to do

[cinder gorge]

hmm i see

[ripe geyser]

See pins

[ripe geyser]

Do you want to do them or not?

[quasi sparrow]

Wdym

[ripe geyser]

Look at the pins

[cinder gorge]

yeah

they seem manageable

[ripe geyser]

aite then not much I can say lol, go for it

[cinder gorge]

ok lmao

[quasi sparrow]

What are pins

[ripe geyser]

See the image above

You see the red circle

you need to click on this

[ruby isle]

Leadership OR Intro to medical and health sciences

[ruby isle]

*I'm in grade 9 rn and where I live high school is from grade 10-12

and I have to pick courses for grade 10

[cinder gorge]

What about it

[ruby isle]

which one should I choice

[cinder gorge]

Both

[ruby isle]

I cant do both

[cinder gorge]

Y not

[ruby isle]

I can only pick 5 options and I already picked 4

I picked

[cinder gorge]

Then do a class over the summer

[ruby isle]

Bio 20 (grade 11 course that I am taking in grade 10), visual arts, spanish, and Culinary Arts

[median fjord]

whatever u like

[ruby isle]

thats the problem tho I want both of them

[cinder gorge]

^

[ruby isle]

I already maxed out on that

[cinder gorge]

Show me

[median fjord]

Then check uni req

[ruby isle]

I'm taking the maximum amount of summer school courses for grade 10 which is 1 😭

[cinder gorge]

Then do a sa

And y the limit

[ruby isle]

Ok ok i'll check uni req and contact the high school to figure something out

[ruby isle]

dik

idk*

[ruby isle]

whats sa

[cinder gorge]

Last time i checked, u can override that if ur parents sign something

[cinder gorge]

Special admit

[ruby isle]

Okay I'll talk to the school's admin about that

[austere tulip]

it's too localized

not everyone has access to sa, de, etc

[cinder gorge]

Just take it at cc

[austere tulip]

yeah not everyone can just do that

[cinder gorge]

Y not

[austere tulip]

not everyone's living in the largest school district in california

[cinder gorge]

So?

It doesnt matter

[austere tulip]

Actually it does

things aren't as accessible for EVERYBODy as u think they are

not all colleges make exceptions or anything

[cinder gorge]

All u literally do it apply at cc and take the class

[austere tulip]

Yes but it isn't that simple EVERYWHERE

[cinder gorge]

But in the US, im pretty sure its like that

[soft jacinth]

How useful is ap lang

[austere tulip]

the us is a broad term

[cinder gorge]

How so

And excluding the US territory, i mean only the 50 states

[austere tulip]

yeah everything's not standardized

[cinder gorge]

It doesnt have to be

[vital olive]

i dont think that’s possible where i live

[cinder gorge]

U just need to know how to take advantage of every opportunity

[cinder gorge]

Wheres that

[austere tulip]

bruh

u want him to dox himself

[cinder gorge]

It can be broad like state or whatever

[austere tulip]

wait

[vital olive]

i mean it doesn’t even have to be state specified but my school specifically doesn’t allow it

i live in nj though

[cinder gorge]

Ur school doesn’t allow u to take classes somewhere else?

Yk that ur school doesnt need to offer it, right?

U can just sign up at ur cc and take the class

[austere tulip]

No

You also need a secondary school reference form

from your hs

in order to start

[tough sun]

Oke

[vital olive]

yeah no, we can’t do that here

my school says no

[cinder gorge]

No u dont

[cinder gorge]

Y

[austere tulip]

yes u do

at least I do

See

that's where there's difference

your cc doesn't

but my cc does

[cinder gorge]

Show me

[austere tulip]

I literally cannot start taking courses

[cinder gorge]

Ig it’s different for different cc

[austere tulip]

Yeah

[cinder gorge]

We dont have that

[tough sun]

What you have

[cinder gorge]

Air

[austere tulip]

no he means like he doesn't have to do the secondary reference form

[cinder gorge]

I have air

[soft jacinth]

^

[austere tulip]

I've heard it's very useful

[cinder gorge]

Its pretty useful

[soft jacinth]

Kk

[wise forge]

this was fucking annoying

They need a letter of rec from the Principal, Counselor, and parent

though its 15 at the college im at rn

[austere tulip]

ikr

[wise forge]

my school just doesn't do it and says tough luck

[amber owl]

what is it like in english 9 hours? just curious

[limpid knoll]

Can you get your courses like “evaluated” in this discord to see if you’re on the right track

Or smthn

[wise forge]

you can send them, but i would reccomend viewing the pins

an Evaluation is very hard without context

[limpid knoll]

So if I add on some clarifications such as:
I want to go to Stanford or MIT
(However many of the requirements I’ve filled)
(What degree I want)

Then would that narrow that down better?

[cinder gorge]

no

[mint thorn]

Yeah sure, send your stuff

We won’t still know a lot though

Mainly cause we also need to know what courses your school offers and all of that

[gloomy lotus]

Yeah

also theres no "courses" you can take to get into MIT or Stanford

you can take courses that help in your major that look better

you can even take the most rigorous course load

[mint thorn]

I know quite a few seniors that got into stanford this year with no APs

[gloomy lotus]

theres no guaruantee

[limpid knoll]

Damn

[gloomy lotus]

Not saying it's required, just saying it goes both ways. No guaruantee

[mint thorn]

But that’s just because my school is weird

Yeah exactly

[gloomy lotus]

I dont even do that many APs because im in IB

[mint thorn]

Like if they sent their stats, everyone would think that there’s no way they could get in

But because my school is formatted oddly, they were still advanced

[gloomy lotus]

MIT acceptance rate for CS is definitely in the 3-4% range

[mint thorn]

Oh god much lower than that

[gloomy lotus]

yeah probs

[mint thorn]

I wouldn’t be surprised if its at 2%

[gloomy lotus]

and most kids are just rich ones/ones coming from feeder schools

so its more like 2%

yeah

[limpid knoll]

Ok uhhh
I wanna get a degree in some sort of engineering (I’m not gonna lie I’m kind of lost on what my future is)
I’m a sophomore
And my classes are
Honors chemistry (other options for sophomore are honors physical science physical science and honors chemistry is the “highest”)
Pre calculus
Honors English 10
Ap U.S. history
Drawing 3
Spanish 2
Intro Engineering (For sophomores who already took engineering its just called smthn like engineering 1)

[wise forge]

seems competitve

[cinder gorge]

its whatever

i personally wouldnt have a schedule like that tho

[wise forge]

why

[cinder gorge]

it doesnt seem intresting, like u have 24hrs in a day and all ur gonna do is 7 classes?

[wise forge]

fair

I do 9

[cinder gorge]

i do 10

[limpid knoll]

My bad I should do 12

[cinder gorge]

next yr is 12 and 13

[wise forge]

yeah

[gloomy lotus]

what 10 classes?

im just curious

[wise forge]

I was gonna do that but i decided against that

[mint thorn]

What was your freshman schedule like?

[gloomy lotus]

like outside of school?

[cinder gorge]

y

[gloomy lotus]

I do 8 in-school

[soft jacinth]

Thats a sexy schedule

[mint thorn]

And I would suggest trying to skip calc a over the summer

[wise forge]

ima get a job

so ima cap at 9

[mint thorn]

My school only allows 7 per semester

[jaunty kite]

hm

[jaunty kite]

hey! ur the person that owes me 10 bucks

whats up

[mint thorn]

…..

[cinder gorge]

0. APUSH TA
1. sports med
2. math
3. wind symphony
4. english
5. chem
6. spanish
7. DE
8. body systems and disorders
9. CSULB

[cinder gorge]

oh nice, what position?

[gloomy lotus]

how long is each class?

[mint thorn]

I’m doing pretty good, you?

[limpid knoll]

So uhhh
Algebra 2 (usually it goes for freshman algebra 1 then sophomore geometry then junior algebra 2)
Honors biology (highest possible for freshman unless you’re just like cracked at biology idk)
Honors English 9
Honors world studies
Drawing 2
Health
Spanish 1

[jaunty kite]

I'm doing alr too hbu

[cinder gorge]

idk, it ranges from 40min to 4hrs

[limpid knoll]

Dude I thought you were kidding wtf

[gloomy lotus]

I'd recommend taking some APs

[cinder gorge]

no?

[gloomy lotus]

in total, how long is your school day?

[wise forge]

who knows yet, the internship I have can't turn into an actual job until im 18, so i think im just gonna get a job at starbs or smth

[jaunty kite]

nice

[cinder gorge]

depends what day, but like 13.5 hrs on tues for just classes

[mint thorn]

Yeah you seem like a pretty typical student but tbh that means that your ec’s have to be really good cause your schedule doesn’t stand out besides being a normal amount of advanced

[jaunty kite]

I'mma be a freshman next year.... pretty excited

[gloomy lotus]

While this can be great, I'd recommend taking the amount your school recommends and focus on extracurriculars a lot

[mint thorn]

pretty good, kinda tired but oh well

[cinder gorge]

i do ecs

i have a job, 2 club positions, etc

[gloomy lotus]

dang

well I dont have time for much

[jaunty kite]

hm

[cinder gorge]

founder and pres of 1, co-founder and vp of another

[limpid knoll]

Does that mean like passion type stuff or just community service

Or both

[mint thorn]

Both

And all

[cinder gorge]

i also do like vounteering and tutoring but its not a lot

[jaunty kite]

mhm

[gloomy lotus]

8 hours of school + 2 hours of robotics + 2 hours of club volleyball and I have a nonprofit, business, tutoring, etc.

that kind of takes up my schedule

[limpid knoll]

Jesus

[cinder gorge]

ur club is 2hrs a day?

y so long

[jaunty kite]

yuh

[gloomy lotus]

its afterschool

[mint thorn]

You can’t really breathe if you want to get into Stanford or mit

[cinder gorge]

but y so long

[gloomy lotus]

robotics is a big time committment

[limpid knoll]

Yea I kinda didn’t realize that until this very conversation

[gloomy lotus]

and we're going to world championships in a week

it's a big deal

[cinder gorge]

what do u do in ur club for 2hrs

[mint thorn]

I mean if you think about it, people in mit and Stanford are the best of the best all combined into one

These are the best students of their areas

[limpid knoll]

I mean is it like “too late” to get into good Ecs or can I still bounce back

[gloomy lotus]

code the robot, build it, plan out our routine, etc.

[limpid knoll]

Great point didn’t think about that

[gloomy lotus]

world championships is a huge deal

[mint thorn]

And if the class is 1000 people, about 300 of those are going to be rich/feeder/legacy

[cinder gorge]

if u go to mit or stanford, what u think is impressive is average, like everyone has national and international awards, like 3+ leadership posotions, made some non-profit, etc

[mint thorn]

So honestly people are only competing for 700 slots and that’s for all of the majors

[mint thorn]

You can def bounce back but you’re going to need to haul ass

[cinder gorge]

thats what i did lmao

[gloomy lotus]

colleges accept based on who they think is the best fit for their school. My friend with lacking ECs and a 3.8 GPA got into it this cycle

[mint thorn]

Like national or international competitions or getting a job at a major company or just literally being a unique genius

[gloomy lotus]

it's not just who's the best

[mint thorn]

Which school?

[limpid knoll]

How do people even get into that position of getting those awards, leadership positions, etc

And also is it like worth it mentally?

[mint thorn]

And fair enough, it just kinda depends on luck as well

[cinder gorge]

u just apply or make it, for me, i made my positions

[gloomy lotus]

MIT

[mint thorn]

In the sense of “oh who’s graduating the school this year”

Good for him

[limpid knoll]

Am I gonna have breakdown-esque mental by the end of it

[mint thorn]

But you never know how good his essays are

[cinder gorge]

no one cares, especially for the t20 schools

[mint thorn]

Having opportunities or forcing them

[mint thorn]

Hahahah..ahahaha…aaaahha…..

[cinder gorge]

great, thats what it costs for the top schools

[mint thorn]

Dude everyone is depressed in ices

*ivys

[limpid knoll]

Damn

[cinder gorge]

lmao, soo true

[mint thorn]

Especially mit oh my god

Those people look like their entire family died

[cinder gorge]

lol

[mint thorn]

I have never met a happy mit student

Or at least one when its not break

[limpid knoll]

Dude this is like a reality check wtf

[cinder gorge]

a lot of people need it in this server

[limpid knoll]

Yeah but is it worth it mentally

[mint thorn]

Dude literally Cornell, the “easy ivy”, had to rope off the gorges on campus cause too many people were jumping

[cinder gorge]

like for me, i need to improve

[cinder gorge]

is it? thats for u to answer

[mint thorn]

Depends on what you want to go into

For undergrad nah

[limpid knoll]

Dog i don’t even know what undergrad means

[mint thorn]

But if you want to become a respected engineer, then for engineering schools yes

[cinder gorge]

college

[limpid knoll]

Oh

[mint thorn]

Do you live in the usa?

[limpid knoll]

Yes

[mint thorn]

Cause there’s undergrad (college) but after that theres grad school

[limpid knoll]

I know like nothing about college

[mint thorn]

Which like….gets you licensed

[limpid knoll]

all I know is I want to get into a good one

[mint thorn]

Like yk med school and law school? Those are grad schools

[limpid knoll]

For what reason?

[cinder gorge]

lmao, all im gonna say is gl

and improve ur ecs

[mint thorn]

Uhhh cause 4 years cannot get you through everything you need for these subjects

[mint thorn]

And um maybe research more

[wise forge]

iMa gO tO BoTh

[limpid knoll]

Where do I start to research

[cinder gorge]

me or him?

[limpid knoll]

What’s a good starting point or guide

[cinder gorge]

uni

[mint thorn]

Ikr it’s concerning how many people don’t know this stuff but want to get into harvard and the like

[mint thorn]

Him

[mint thorn]

Yooo same

[mint thorn]

Google lmao

Just literally google “undergrad vs grad”

“Typical stats mit”

[cinder gorge]

just ask around, like i got invited to play with CSULB (cal state long beach) orchestra so yeah..

[gloomy lotus]

my cousin went to UVA and now has a 6 figure job and his own company. The College you go to does not matter for the most part, it's WHAT YOU DO at the college

[mint thorn]

“I got into Stanford stats”

[mint thorn]

Actually very fair

[limpid knoll]

See that’s what’s trippingn me up

I don’t know why I want to go to a good college

[mint thorn]

My uncle went to Princeton and like he’s making good money but yk he could have made more

[cinder gorge]

then go to cc

[mint thorn]

Connections.

[gloomy lotus]

Prestige

and connections

[limpid knoll]

I just know that it seems good like my whole life path is confusing asl right now

[limpid knoll]

Connections with who

[cinder gorge]

then figure it out

[mint thorn]

Tbh are the ivys worth the 60k per year? Absolutely not

[gloomy lotus]

you pay for the connecections really. You can get hte degree literally anywhere

[limpid knoll]

H o w

[mint thorn]

Kids of billionaires, people who will go on to become heads of schools, etc

[cinder gorge]

hence finicial aid, i dont think anyone will be able to afford for yale without finicial aid

[cinder gorge]

u just do, thats kinda it

[mighty mist]

your education is only one little line on your resume

[mint thorn]

Many people do tbh but yeah for most people a lot of tuition is unreachable

[gloomy lotus]

exactly

[cinder gorge]

yale is like the price of a tesla per yr

[mint thorn]

Like if you want to go into law for example, the only way you’re breaking 100k is IF you go to a t5

[cinder gorge]

$72k

[limpid knoll]

Is that implying like a “aye I need some money” type thing or more of a “this person can help me later on” type thing

[gloomy lotus]

unless you're high income + rich

[mint thorn]

Its implying a “this person can help me later”

[mint thorn]

……yeah uh……..there’s a lot of people who can afford that

[limpid knoll]

Ohhhh

[cinder gorge]

connections is everything tbh... thats how i got invited to play with CSULB orchestra n stuff

[mint thorn]

Yeah connections are everything

[cinder gorge]

and my job

[limpid knoll]

How’d you get connections in high school

[mint thorn]

You miss a flight? Just call up the head of HR for delta airlines

[cinder gorge]

just talk to people who are smart and know people

[gloomy lotus]

yeah

[cinder gorge]

and i personally talked to the conductor at CSULB so yeah

[gloomy lotus]

my internships came from connections I made over time

[mint thorn]

You want your kid to go to a good internship? That’s really easy if you’re friends with the head researcher

[limpid knoll]

Did y’all all figure ALL of this out by yourself or just have someone to guide y’all

[cinder gorge]

u figure it out

people arnt gonna spoon feed u everything

u just learn from ur mistakes and move on

[limpid knoll]

How long did it take for all y’all to figure this out

[cinder gorge]

me? like 6 months

[mint thorn]

My parents helped me out a lot cause I’m basically the one rich bitch you’re competing against when you apply to colleges—

[mint thorn]

I’ve known it since birth

[limpid knoll]

Damn

[mint thorn]

Or at least my parents have set me up for it since birth

[limpid knoll]

Also damn

[cinder gorge]

u cant compete with some people in life

its physically impossible

[gloomy lotus]

i figured it out myself

takes time tho

[mint thorn]

Yeah typically whenever I meet people I always tell them that I am the person they need to be better than

[cinder gorge]

and passion + dedication

[mint thorn]

That sounds egotistical af but unfortunately its true

Don’t feel bad though, most people aren’t aware of this either

And besides admission rates are going down cause more and more uneducated people are just throwing their application at the school, not actually cause they even had a chance

[cinder gorge]

yeah

but gl on life @limpid knoll

[mint thorn]

If you don’t get into your dream schools dont take it personally

Most of it is luck anyways

[limpid knoll]

Thank you

Can’t tell if that’s off hand or genuine but either way

[mint thorn]

Maybe they needed more orchestra students or maybe they had too many people of your ethnicity that year or maybe your interviewer didn’t like your clothes, idk

[limpid knoll]

A s i a n

[cinder gorge]

people in life is gonna destroy u, and ur main objective is to learn from them and be better then them

[mint thorn]

But just the best advice I can give you is that in 100 years if someone digs up your skeleton it won’t matter if you went to harvard or never even went to high school

[cinder gorge]

i cant even count how many people destroyed me

[vital olive]

fr

pecan insnae

[limpid knoll]

Ok so for college admissions is there only two types that of being early decision and early action?

[mint thorn]

You have a crap ton of stuff too tho

[mint thorn]

And normal admission as well

[vital olive]

idk if it’s good enough tho

[limpid knoll]

Oh Mmk

[mint thorn]

I mean we’ll see in 3 years ig

[vital olive]

i guess

have you seen rishab jain

i found him like 2 days ago and got convinced i’m going to my state school

like who tf competes against THE rishab jain

[gloomy lotus]

he's a 1 in a million

[vital olive]

more than that

[mint thorn]

No?

[vital olive]

okay wait

one second

[mint thorn]

What school did he get into?

[vital olive]

https://www.reddit.com/r/collegeresults/comments/1283vm9/asian_male_with_no_targetssafeties_artfully_sinks/

[cinder gorge]

a lot

[mint thorn]

Hm checks out

He really went the academic route

[vital olive]

bro was literally times most influential teen at 14

or like top 20 or something

[cinder gorge]

u can be one of them

[mint thorn]

That’s def not the standard tho

[vital olive]

and he increased pancreatic cancer survival rate by like 50%

or something

at 13

[gloomy lotus]

yeah its really easy. Yesterday night I was the most influential teen of 15 years old

i just cured cancer

my bad

[cinder gorge]

lol

i was just kidding

[gloomy lotus]

ik lol

[mint thorn]

Honestly he’s going to be depressed af in college

[gloomy lotus]

honestly theres just no point comparing ourselves with people like that

[mint thorn]

But hey good for him

[vital olive]

he doesn’t look depressed

honeskty

i’ve seen his yt and stuff

[mint thorn]

But also you realize that his parents set him up for that right

You don

[gloomy lotus]

also if you guys dont know, you normally compete with kids in your local area

[mint thorn]

*you don’t get those opportunities without parents

[mint thorn]

He will be, esp if he goes to MIT

[vital olive]

my parents don’t know anything about college 😀

[gloomy lotus]

Colleges accept x amount of students from highschools and certain areas.

While you are competing with everyone

[mint thorn]

Because he’s so used to being the one in a million that he’s gonna be really like a fish out of water at mit where there’s other people like him

[gloomy lotus]

it's mainly kids in your local area

[mint thorn]

cries in new england

[vital olive]

imo the first gen guidelines are unfair bc it’s literally the same effect if someones parents didn’t go to college or someone’s parents went to college like 30 years ago in a random, now closed foreign college and got a Bachelors

like ykwim??

[mint thorn]

Indeed

[vital olive]

both still know absolutely nothing about college

i’m lucky i got obsessed in the summer of eighth grade

or idk what i’d be doing rn

[mint thorn]

I mean other people’s parents also don’t know about college but they still get into harvard and the like so

Its hard to make excuses when people defy they all the time

[vital olive]

not like that just in general bc first gen gives an advantage

like it’s a way of counterbalancing the insnae stuff you do at a young age

bc no one ever knew of that ever

[mint thorn]

Yeah fair

[limpid knoll]

Bro w t f

[mint thorn]

First gens get buffed like hell

Which i mean is good

[vital olive]

but like

[cinder gorge]

this is the people who u cant compete with

[vital olive]

i for example xant get first gen

[mint thorn]

Considering most first gens aren’t exactly ina great economic state

[limpid knoll]

I now understand

[vital olive]

even though i’m in practically the same situation

[mint thorn]

Believe me when I say that a LOT of people who go to these colleges you never had a fighting chance against

[vital olive]

i mean money wise we’re ok but first gen problem is that they know nothing abt college

[mint thorn]

Yeah—

[vital olive]

and like

[mint thorn]

But hey its good google exists for this reason

[gloomy lotus]

Honestly, sometimes I wish I didn't worry about college

[vital olive]

if ur parents go to a random uni in india thirty years ago wtf will they know about college

more like 20 but still

[vital olive]

yeah

[limpid knoll]

Is there even a point in competing

[mint thorn]

I’ve been working for a good college for my entire life so I better get into a goddamn ivy or my whole life just was kinda for nothing

[limpid knoll]

Not against them

Hell no

But just in general

[mint thorn]

There’s always a point in competing

You never know what could happen

[vital olive]

honestly i feel like id be happy anywhere

after reading so many depression stories i don’t wanna stress myself out lol

[gloomy lotus]

My friend's family runs a restauraunt chain of 5 restauraunts that makes a ton of money and he's going to take over the chain when he leaves highschool. Not even going to college. He literally has Ds and Cs and goes out at night to parties and stuff and doesn't care

[mint thorn]

You might as well try

[gloomy lotus]

I wish I was him sometimes 😭

[vital olive]

i’m just doing whatever i wanna do

[cinder gorge]

u only life once, might as well make the best out of it

[vital olive]

and hopefully i get somewhere

[cinder gorge]

same

[vital olive]

but if i go to rutgers it’s whatever bc it’s what you do there that matters

more than where you go

[mint thorn]

Yeah but I mean you can’t choose where you get born so you have to do the best with what was given to you

[vital olive]

ofc depression can be caused by other things but you can’t control that 😀

oops

[gloomy lotus]

Know that wherever you go, you will do good if you try. I know some friends of my dad that went to community colleges and military schools that retired at 40 and live comfy now

[vital olive]

^

[mint thorn]

I’m friends with people who would not need to work and would be able to live off their families money and ofc I wish I had that, but i dont

Everyone has a different situation

College is just 4 years of your life

[vital olive]

thts such an unfulfilling life

[mint thorn]

Its a easy life tho

[vital olive]

easy is overrated

i’d take challenging over easy any day

i hate easy

[mint thorn]

I…would not

Boredom is safe, challenge has the potential of failur

But to each their own

[vital olive]

so what

risk is part of life

[mint thorn]

Fair enough

[vital olive]

failure makes you stronger

[mint thorn]

Its really just everyone’s personal taste

[vital olive]

i suppose

actualy no i get what you mean

but i can’t stand doing nothing

[cinder gorge]

failure are only opportunities to succeed

[vital olive]

fr

[amber owl]

what is it like in english 9 hours? is it hard, is it easy? please let me know anyone

[mint thorn]

Like…to go to a english speaking school?

[vital olive]

hours?

do you mean honors

[amber owl]

oh oops, i meant honors. sorry autocorrect

[amber owl]

yes

[mint thorn]

Ohh okay okay

Depends on your school

Typically english honors literally is just a normal English class but they move faster and assign more work

[amber owl]

oh alr. it's because i got recommended for it, and it's going to be my first time taking a honor class

[gloomy lotus]

It's not that bad! You'll do fine as long as you pay attention

[violet dagger]

I got chosen for 2 diff high schools. One is STEM-focused, other is humanities-focused. I love sci slightly more than art, but I feel that I'll learn more useful stuff in the humanities one. Any advice?

[amber owl]

👍 ty

[cinder gorge]

just pick 1

[violet dagger]

k

[gloomy lotus]

It all depends on what you're interested in. What do you want to do in the future?

but generally, I'd go with STEM

[olive thistle]

Passion is going to take you the farthest if you are a hard worker

[gloomy lotus]

STEM incorporates a lot of humanities like art and writing as well

[olive thistle]

Stem is the future

[gloomy lotus]

agreed

[violet dagger]

Something like a park ranger. And to do that, I eventually need an enviornmental sciences degree

[olive thistle]

Just because you pick one doesn’t mean you have to just focus on that subject. YouTube and Khan Academy alone present so many ways to dive into the things you are interested in

[violet dagger]

That's true

[olive thistle]

It would be cool to apply the different stem categories to the life of a park ranger

[amber owl]

should i keep doing a foreign language until i get a diploma for it?

[olive thistle]

I’m in Spanish 4 and can’t even formulate a sentence in Spanish

[violet dagger]

Thanks @gloomy lotus , @olive thistle

[olive thistle]

Ofc

[amber owl]

will colleges really care

[olive thistle]

I’m in the Midwest, and most colleges really just care that you have 2+ years of a foreign language on your transcript

[cinder gorge]

no

[amber owl]

alr, so far i have one

[gloomy lotus]

Environmental sciences require a good amount of STEM

[cinder gorge]

what matters is the seal of bilitaricy

[violet dagger]

2 get into college or u wanna major in that?

[olive thistle]

That shows that you can speak the language fluently right? Like through a test?

[amber owl]

college

[cinder gorge]

hence the 4 yrs

[gloomy lotus]

Most IVYs require 4 years I believe of a foreign language

[violet dagger]

ik some college admissions require that. my high school will requires it. is it optional 4 u?

[tiny lily]

Only Harvard and Princeton requires 4 yrs of foreign lang

[olive thistle]

I’m in a Spanish 4-5 class, and only two people took the seal of bilireracy test, and they both knew fluent Spanish before taking the class

[amber owl]

yeah it's optional, my counselor says it's good for colleges

[gloomy lotus]

Really random question, but are you in Virgina by any chance? We also do the "selecting your highschool" type thing here that I haven't seen anywhere else in the country

[olive thistle]

It will definitely set you apart from a lot of people

[violet dagger]

no, im in Washington. I got into the lottery choice high schools

[cinder gorge]

not definitely

its the standard for the top colleges

[violet dagger]

not exactly, most ppl r bilingual

[gloomy lotus]

oh cool, was just curious! Good luck with highschool!

[cinder gorge]

definitely would be something like curing cancer or something

[amber owl]

oh alr. also, what do you do in the foreign language test

[violet dagger]

np thx

[cinder gorge]

u take the test

[gloomy lotus]

to prove you're fluent

[olive thistle]

💀

[amber owl]

like will there be a reading in that foreign language and the multiple choice would be in foreign language as well?

[cinder gorge]

idk

i never took it yet

[violet dagger]

i'd expect it but irdk

[olive thistle]

What grade are you supposed to take the test or does it matter?

[amber owl]

u start like in 8th grade, and u do "checkpoints"

[violet dagger]

does that happen in all of Virginia or just ur part? here it happens in some skool districts, but not all

[olive thistle]

Dang your school is on top of it, our Spanish teachers didn’t even let us know that the seal of biliteracy existed until 2 weeks before the deadline was to take it

[cinder gorge]

it varies

[gloomy lotus]

Where I live (which is near richmond), we have this thing called specialty centers where you make a mini application and submit to specialty highschools. Theres a highschool for IT, one for Medical, one for Engineering, one for IB, etc.

[amber owl]

i honestly hope the exam im going to be taking in june wont be in my transcript

[gloomy lotus]

If you get rejected from all, you go to your zoned highschool

[olive thistle]

That’s really cool

[violet dagger]

oh most choice high schools here r totally random lottery. there's a special one which requires a transcript, but every other one I've heard of doesnt

[violet dagger]

i live near Seattle

[gloomy lotus]

it is, but it also leads to fierce competition at the age of 13 😭 like theres better things to do at 13 than worry about where you're going to hs

[olive thistle]

Yeah I also don’t know how you decide what you want to major in in college when you are 13 lol

[amber owl]

do final exam grades appear on ur transcript

[gloomy lotus]

theres this governors school that is REALLY competitive. Like 10% acceptance rate, and the middle schoolers fight over that

[gloomy lotus]

Yeah I had no idea, so I just ended up going to the IB school which honestly was a great decision for me since I got to explore a bit on what I liked

[olive thistle]

Our transcripts just have the letter grade you got in the class

[amber owl]

so basically your final grade?

[olive thistle]

Yeah

[violet dagger]

my schools pretty competitive too ): most richer ppl here fight 4 scholarships @ a private skool. But its usually hte parents, none of us care at this point

[cinder gorge]

how old r u?

[amber owl]

i dont get the purpose of taking final exams if they're worth 5% of my final grade

[olive thistle]

That’s kind of sad 😢

[violet dagger]

yeah

[gloomy lotus]

yeah I don't like competition at such a young age

like its already bad enough in hs for colleges

we dont need anything at the middle school level 💀

[amber owl]

my school makes fun of others for people's courses recommendations

[olive thistle]

Fr my biggest worry in middle school was Fortnite

[violet dagger]

mhm. ik my friends parents want them 2 start thinking bout college majors by watching a 3h long vid. crazy

[gloomy lotus]

lmao mine was a mobile game called brawl stars

[violet dagger]

cool

[gloomy lotus]

damn

im asian

so like

i was in the college process by middle school

like my parents were so into it and forcing me and stuff

[violet dagger]

luckily, that doesn't happen at my skool. But then again my skool doesn't hv many electives sooo

[gloomy lotus]

they're a bit more chill now since they're more exposed but like I know other students with parents forcing so many extracurriculars and stuff

its crazy

[amber owl]

i dont get why i suck at elective classes

[violet dagger]

same, but my parents r nicer than the stereotypical asian parent. they're acctually a pretty good balance

[violet dagger]

what electives?

[amber owl]

art, facs, and tech

[gloomy lotus]

that's nice

parents that push their kids in the right direction rather than force them are the best

like id want someone to push me, but not shove me

yk

[violet dagger]

i mean all classes r hard, and just bc something is an elective doesn't mean its easier?

[violet dagger]

yeah i get u

[amber owl]

it's supposed to be, but idk why i still suck at them

[violet dagger]

r u new to those areas?

[amber owl]

ye because i was kind of forced to

[cinder gorge]

Not rlly

Some classes is ez

[violet dagger]

well that makes sense. Good luck!

[violet dagger]

ig depending on teacher

[cinder gorge]

Not rlly

It depends tho

[violet dagger]

hm ok

[mint thorn]

Yeah I go to a private high school where its basically just a smaller college application

They even have a sat for us

[violet dagger]

like a special type of SAT? SSAT?

[mint thorn]

Yep the ssat

Which arguably was harder than the sat

Cause the goddamn analogies section oh my god

[violet dagger]

that's rly stupid

[mint thorn]

Yep, on Tuesdays I’m in classes from 6:30 am to 9:30 pm with only a lunch break in between

[mint thorn]

I mean obviously the math was easy but like it was “syzygy is to star as ___ is to goose”

[cinder gorge]

Lol

[violet dagger]

and the teachers just expect yall to focus for that long?

[mint thorn]

Oh no, my actual school is only from 9:20 to 3:15

The rest is just extracurriculars

[violet dagger]

oof

[mint thorn]

:DDDD so fun

[cinder gorge]

I do class from 7am to 8:30pm (just class) and they expect it

[mint thorn]

You’re in the us?? What type of hell school do you go to??

[cinder gorge]

Yeah, i do regular school and im doing a CNA program (certified nursing assistant) so next yr ill be certified to work and whatever

CNA/CMA program

Its pre req class

[mint thorn]

Ohhh so basically you’re doing two schools

[cinder gorge]

Kinda

[mint thorn]

I mean good for you I guess

Just hang in there

[cinder gorge]

More like 4 schools tbh

[mint thorn]

Wow—

That’s kind of awful

[violet dagger]

r u in college @cinder gorge?

[mint thorn]

So you’re really doubling down on academics then

[cinder gorge]

Regular school, 2 cc and the ROP program

[cinder gorge]

Technically yes but im also in hs

I go to 2 cc and CSULB and hs

[violet dagger]
