      Preeta Acharya wowww Preeta props to u being able to handle going to classes back to back everyday! I have two to three classes a day with large gaps and I don't think I could go to almost all of my classes in a day. Congrats on declaring your major! You will kill Neurosci!!! Much love from a fellow college student (I'm a freshman)💕💕💕
      Question: How are you doing/feeling? Junior seems like a lot of work at a glance.

    I've applied to Princeton, and I was considering how I'd fit into the school, and watching your video made me feel so motivated about my place in this college. It's beautifully made, well done!

  • @tylerwin2781

    Love this video! The first video I ever saw by you was how K-POP got you into Princeton. It’s crazy to see how time flies. Good luck in all your classes especially ORGO! Glad to see that you still love K-POP, and did you hear about EXO’s comeback in November?!!

  • @swirledswan

    I am in love with this video!!! I watch a ton of college week in my life/day in my life videos, but I want to say that yours is one of my favorite. Please continue pursuing this if you have the time and energy to do so! I love how you put a little schedule on the side of the screen! It was really cute and organized and fun to watch you go down the list of classes/activities. I like how chill this video is. It isn’t trying to be like other videos: it is simple and straight to the point and I just really enjoyed it. Seeing you learn korean (through language and dance) really inspires me to connect back to my roots, which I hope to do when I go to college. I am rooting for you!!! This is a great start and I wanted to just let you know that this video is wonderful. Happy New Years!!

    Class of 2017 alum here! Really loved seeing so many of my old favorite places in this video (especially as a Psych major, dance minor, too). Your vlogging style is great, and having the schedule pop up throughout was a nice touch. Congratulations on your major declaration! Hope the rest of your semester goes well :)

  • @estherh9450
    @estherh9450 6 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    Hi Preeta! OMG you are SO talented! This video is so great, I love it sooo much. Idk why but I always get excited from watching this kind of college vlogs. Maybe it’s because I’m struggling with my college application process right now, it’s just such a burden to me. Essays are super stressful to me since I’m not a native English speaker...so I’m just wondering if there is any tips that you would like to share on that? Thank you and love you!
    P.s My first language is Chinese so seeing you learning Chinese makes me super happy for some reason...😂😂

    Hi Preeta! This video was so awesome to watch. It really solidified my wonderful views of Princeton. Back in late March/early April in my junior year I went on an east coast college trip, and I ended up getting a tour for Princeton on Ivy Day! Luckily there were no seniors anxiously awaiting their results in my group! I am actually applying for the Neuroscience concentration at Princeton and following a Pre-Med track as well, so I'm so glad that I've found a student there that I can live vicariously through until I get my results next March! I'm not sure if you have made a stats video yet, but if you haven't, I'm sure it would not only help me, but any high school student who has fallen in love with Princeton! I do have one question though: have you had positive experiences with professors that teach classes like Neuroanatomy and Life Cycle of Behaviors? I'm trying to get a feel for what the professor-student relationship is like. Thanks so much :)

  • @elaineleung8343
    @elaineleung8343 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    hi preeta, love ur videos :-) this one was so insightful! but i have a few questions if u dont mind: what is a concentration declaration? the one-on-one’s with ur korean prof - are they in front of the whole class? and what happens when u skip class.. like what does absence do to ur record? in orgo, how much guidance do u receive for ur labs and how long does it take for u to write a lab report? seems so tedious! so so sorry for so many questions...but u seem like the most reliable person to ask college questions to

    • @PreetaAcharya
      @PreetaAcharya  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Elaine Leung hi there! A concentration declaration is just declaring your major! You do it in the spring semester of your sophomore year so that you have time to decide what field you really have an interest in. The one-on-one’s are really just you and your professor in their office. With Chinese they were just more pronunciation practice with the textbook, but in Korean we just have conversations about our lives lol so my Korean professors know a lot about what’s going on in my life. During orgo lab you can always ask your TA questions but keep in mind there are also 15+ other students who may have questions as well. There’s also a rush to get things done in orgo lab so you want to be prepared when you come in. When writing the lab report, you write a draft and then turn it in so that your TA can write corrections and then use their corrections to write your final draft. You can almost always get an A with corrections but it also means spending more time on it so getting an A initially is still better. The lab report I worked on in this video probably took me around 15 hours. And I think that’s pretty average.

    Hey I loved your video! I wanted to know is there a specific certificate program you chose to take both Chinese and Korean?

    • @PreetaAcharya
      @PreetaAcharya  6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Katrina Morgan I chose to take them at different times. I started with Korean in Freshman year, heard a lot about how amazing the Chinese department is and decided to take Chinese alongside Korean sophomore year. There are East Asian Studies/Program Certificates But they require an independent project alongside the classes and I’ve heard from others that certificates don’t really count for much outside of Princeton. So, trying to tie East Asia into my neuroscience thesis or writing an independent paper on East Asia seemed like too much work given that I just enjoy learning the languages. Tl;dr: I chose to take them out of interest but you can do it with the goal of an East Asian Studies Certificate in mind!

    Preeta you're such a hardworking person... Honestly i became dizzy... You have a lot of classes to attend and work to do... i am a bit scared to go into university...i'm 19 yrs old now and currently taking a-levels... And in two months time i will finish it and next year i need to join a university to do my degree... A lot of thoughts are going on in my head for example i don't know which university i want to apply or which course i want to take... And if i want to enter a certain university my gpa should be more than 3.00 and i'm scared since the final exam is coming up in a month plus this is the last semester and been busy with loads of assignments and presentation, group works and so on... Can you give me some tips on how to organize everything properly... My schedule is so messed up and since my friends will text last minute if there is a class is way more bad
