hi. your video kinda inspiring. my 9th grade gpa was 3.12, 10-11th grade 2.88 and my 12th grade was 3.6. overall it is 3.0 around. I recently got 1490 SAT. do I have a chance for top colleges

Congratulations of how you were able to circumvent reverse discrimination.

I only was accepted by MIT of Cambridge to barely get in for my paper on how to achieve muon catalyzed fusion based on How I prove how Noguchi of early 1940s Hamgyong perfected nuclear fusion to power rocket powered braided composite gliders and steam filled airships considering how Alvarez was only credited after Peacekeepers had returned from ruins due to his Hispanic heritage of Affirmative Action to try to win favors from constant social unrest.

my situation is also like that. my grades in 9-11th grade is really bad but my final year grades in 12th is pretty good which is 3.7

Should I send the low GPA and SAT to Harvard or MIT so that Harvard can recognise my better SAT and low school grades?

Low gpa high sat - help

Hi Emily! I’m an international student now, and i got a B+ at math on Grade 10😢😢. I got 3.92/4.0 at the first semester but 3.87 at the second semester. What can I do…….It’s really difficult to apply for top20 colleges nowadays.

How can I get into ivy league in 2025 when I have 2.62 GPA (out of 4) in my bachelor's (only because I didn't study well 🤧)? How can I improve myself in 1 drop year? Which type of internships, exams, extra courses, other stuffs should I take?plss help😢

Emmy which university are you in ?

Like what if I have 3.0 gpa and like I didn’t put SAT. Can I still apply for some Ivy League Uni and is it possible for me to get in

dude i've been a straight a student but i'm scared my ap precalc grade's going to be a C. call me dumb for blaming my teacher, but literally 3/4 of our entire class hates our teacher and doesn't like her bc of the way she grades. can anyone else relate?

May I know which universities you got accepted by?

bad grades ??? BROOOO

The TRIANGLE! Leveraging yourself with other strengths is big

What were ur o level grades

im cooked 2.0 gpa 1400 sat in junior year how are those bad grades 😭

bro gave me hope to get into Stanford

thank you!!

Do you think I have a shot at NYU with a 3.2 uw gpa but a 1600 sat

Thanks for your support ❤

3A a bad grade !!!!!!!!!!!!!! how girl ???????????????? it's a damn good grade for me

lol I have zero expectations of ever landing myself into a top college, I'm not even sure if I can even expect to get into a standard one. I was "gifted" with absolutely terrible health when I was growing up and it made it so the strengths I have were null and void in my grades as I had too much lethargy and missed too much time in class. Seeing my GPA after I finished absolutely destroyed my hopes of getting to any kind of art college, let alone Cal Arts (which was my dream). It's been many years since I finished High School now. I never did my SATs after high school, again because of my health and I have no way of doing them now because as I understand it adults my age don't have that option. I WISH I could take them so I could actually show the difference in my performance now that my health issues are past, but again I don't think I have that option or anything similar. Would love to be proven wrong! I'm lost on what to do about this area of my life. I really want to get a secondary education but with a gpa that's under 3.0 (2.83 to be exact) I just don't think that it's possible.

I have a gpa of 2.1 my life is over 😭

I needed this, thank you

Hey, I got a 20 in act I’m gonna do a bachelors course in 2024 I don’t do any extracurriculars I’m gonna give my 12th exam in 2024 can I expect to get in a good university if not would I be able to get into a good university for my masters afterwards?

Are extracurriculars only valid while you are in high school? Or after graduating high school can you also do extracurriculars? Will they be valid after graduation?

Hi i really hope u see this. Ok so i did IGCSEs and now I'm going into the IB program. I Didn't do that well during highschool. It was ok but it wasn't enough. I'm hoping IB and SATs can make up for this. Thank you sm for this video because you said you didn't do well in English so u made sure to do well in the English section of ur sats, I'm trying to apply that to IB like someone subjects i Didn't do well in during igs i could make up for them during IB. So are u saying i could actually make up for my olevel results with IB and SATs because I'm scared as shit.

What about my chance 4.9 weighted gpa 1 published scientific article and 3 articles that are about to be published a newspaper about me that has been published by the greatest press in my country 1 out of 20 in my class founder of 4 associations and member of nanotech association in a research center plus being a member of student concil and also lots of certificates in programming and finally I am going to take SAT but I am not sure if I get enough score. (I am applying for fall of 2024)

Such a click-bait! Her grades aren't bad at all. On A Levels, there's no cumulative GPA; instead, it is done per individual subject, and you're supposed to take three subjects on average. So, it's more like a 4.5 out of 5.0 weighted scale for every A she has and 3.0 out of 5.0 for just the one C. Plus, CAIE A Levels are world class high school course and more recognized than AP courses. For context, CAIE grades range from A*, A, B, C, D, and E, where an E is equivalent to a C grade and an A* is equivalent to a perfect 5.0 on the US weighted 5.0 scale. She is only one grade below a perfect GPA. Don't be fooled, guys. And since so many schools have gone test-optional, her 1460 SAT score didn't really hurt her chances all that much either.

RU kidding? 1460 SAT is bad score? it's just right if you complete your application appropriately

Hii cutie

You are very good don't give up

My son has 4.0 (4.7)/1480 and isn’t even bothering applying to Ivies. Sorry, you got very lucky.

I'm a junior rn, 3.0 unweighted gpa, 3.7 weighted. I'm about to apply to a ton of ivy's, so I think the main thing that will carry me is my essays and my ec's. The only good ec I have rn is that like, I interviewed a few ms & t-mobile vc's and senators.

I have different extracurricular activities. How can I make it narrative (interconnected) to the entire application?? I want to pursue my education in computer science and I have extracurricular like programming, soccer, tutoring, volunteer, ambassador of environmental protection club Can you give me ur advice???

Hey Emily! I was curious, do you think O-level grades play a significant role in getting admitted to US universities? To be honest, my O-level grades weren't the best.

How did I get into ivy league with bad grade - simple you have a healthy relationship 🤐🤐

How did you address your weakness(bad grades) aside in your essays. Did your letter of recommendation shed light on it. Did you utilize the additional information section? Also, thanks a lot for this video. It really helped a lot

what about the same video but dedicated to transfer students? <3

girl i love you i was worried sick about my grades i did terrible terrible result on my exam man i was like my future is crashed

I got bad igcse results. does this mean I won't get into good unis? what if I do good in ib? could I still get into good colleges? I'm too scared

Hi Emily. I am applying college this year. I watched your video and found it helpful. I had lots activity but don’t know how to quantify the achievement and finally make my activities and passion be cohesive. Is there way I can pm you to get some help?

Hello, I also do the British syllabus and I got similar grades, I wanted to know how did you do in your IGCSEs?

my sat score was a 980 and i have a gpa of a 2.6………..

My grades and stats are so bad but i'll apply to some ivy leagues for fun.

For the first HALF of highschool. I failed more than half of my classes. Severe depression. I think with my like 1 point something gpa im a bit screwed even if im trying my absolute best rn

You sound like rosè from blackpink

I’m 20 and I just spenat 2 years raising my grades after I graduate from High school. I now hahe a 3.7 gpa. Don’t worry. People use their 20s to study. If you take 1,2 or 3 years to fix your grades and then start college then that is nothing. You can do it.

Motivational … Does volunteer / community service has to be aligned with what degree we are applying for ?
