Congratulations! This college decision video is very underrated for me, because typically a lot of the others have the same concept of reacting (not saying I don’t like those videos). But sometimes, I prefer one over the others. It was very realistic too which was why I enjoyed it too! Have a good day! :)
wait i cared a lot that was my most important/hope-filled decision!!! the bees were just so cute & unexpected and they stopped working even after reloading so i got really sad 😭😭😭 but i bookmarked the tab (u can see it in a later clip, when i open the sidebar u can see a tab called "bees! :3c") so i could just Stare at bees and happiness LMAOAO

@@jolieyay Really appreciate the comprehensive reply!!! Do you mean Angela He who is an artist as well and went to stanford? 😭IF so, YESSSSSS!!! It was MY Dream to become an animator, storyteller, game dev stuff. I just followed you on insta as well. (Yeah i was confused when i got a noti and saw nth on TH-cam haha). Ahhh, developing games together is pretty cool. I was thinking I should hold workshops and guests to share their experiences for people who are interested in going deeply into game dev in the future since CCs don't even have game design courses or similar art courses haha. (tho Im gonna have to speedrun game dev stuff during winter break). Also YESS, I feel like the thing with Game Dev is we can sort of write stories and let people immerse in it fully which is REALLY COOL. I vividly remember my first time playing Undertale and I was just mesmerized by the story and the characters. Funnily enough, I am in my first quarter of CC and I feel like I'm in a 1/4 midlife crisis lol. I feel like when it comes to those college apps and ECs in particular, I think it's just better to do what we enjoy and what we REALLY love doing and prioritise in that field. I wasted my hs years just doing things that I thought would help me get into a good college (and Land A Good Job 💀) and by the time the finals rolled over, I felt mentally exhausted and just didn't care about anything anymore. Initially, I was planning on taking a gap year but had to flee my country UNNECESSARY LORE DROP. Again, thanks for your feedback and replies!!! Just letting you know that this video and your replies have helped me sort of made my clear my head to focus more on what I love doing and my goals. :))
i love this!! really reminds you of how really subjective college admissions are. as a current junior any videos like this help me deal with the dread for applying next year lol. i hope you're having a great time at MIT!!
thanks!! i just finished my finals :)) (i got a 52% on one and a 72% on the second HAHA this place hard af...) and yeah it's so luck-based! you will do great dw, as long as you've done all that you've can there's nothing left to regret :)
Hi jolie :D this somehow popped up on my recommended, and I js wanted to let u know that ur legit so awesome :3 im so glad you did the things u loved and everything ended up being alright ❤ Thanks for making this, I feel extra motivated to pursue my passions now ^^
I love the message you sent out in this video, and the clarification blurb in the comments. By watching this video, I felt a little less anxious about my college applications (I just got rejected REA from Stanford lol). But what I learned today is that what we do at university that matters more than where we go. Nevertheless, congrats on MIT! Go BEAVERS, and you'll be amazing out there.
hey i got rejected stanford rea too!! (i'm sure you knew from the vid though 😭) twinning :)) and yeah it's definitely not the case that the mit name is carrying me or anything, if anything i'm just struggling much harder bc of this place :D
I think some of the other schools like UW were using protection yield and rejected her because they thought she wouldn't attend since her scores were so high.
lowkey i think that's the case for uiuc and cmu (none of which i applied pure cs) and maybe ut/unc (i'm oos), but the rest prob weren't cuz cs is just so hard to get into
It was likely not yield protection for UW. UW out of state CS is super competitive. It's only a 2% acceptance rate. UIUC has a 6% acceptance rate for CS. UT is also very hard to get into out of state due to the auto admit legislation in Texas.
@@mythicbliss747 yep completely agree!! except for uiuc i didn't apply pure cs (as i mentioned in the comment before yours) & the year before it had a 25% acceptance rate the reason i said maybe for ut is cuz other ppl from my school got in for cs, but i don't know their profile so they could just be hella cracked LOL
@@jolieyay Some very privileged applicants are able to hire admissions consultants, and don't forget about legacy applicants. But it also could just be fit. There's a lot of BS that goes on in college admissions but you mainted a positive attitude which is encouraging to see. Your MIT application was probably really good and demonstrated a good fit for the school. MIT is better than those schools anyways, it doesn't matter what people say.
About to go through this process. I've never seen someone so humble :0. Also ur so right abt it jus being a college. i dont think i will ever see someone react to mit like tha. i also get where ur coming from cuz i go to a p toxic school lol
AW you'll get out of that environment soon, hopefully!! and yeah like we got tech issues everywhereee wdym we're #1 tech school Hello.. our websites don't even load & they look like they were made in 2002....... at the end of the day i believe you will make the most of every situation you're handed!
knew you'd end up somewhere great when u applied REA to Stanford... congrats!!! and ur right ur so chill throughout the whole video 😭 I was surprised to see u just smile a bit when u saw the Penn acceptance
AWW HAHA yeah rewatching that i literally had like Zero reaction wtf LMAAOOOO i think cuz i alr had mit it was like would i even go there.. prob not... i could not point out pennsylvania to you on a map...... i think i had some hope for the stanny rea since i watched someone else's reaction vid and i thought we were p similar
HAHA aww thank you for the support!! i'm sure you have done so many cool things already :) thank you & good luck to you as well, wherever you currently are!!
First of its kind college reaction video. After watching hundreds of screaming college reaction videos I am glad I came across your video. After this I will not be watching anymore college reaction videos. 🙏
bro got into mit and said "i just got into college" nonchalant as FUCK, also how tf u just start scrolling like that with no reaction after penn im actually dead. This some next level shit I am yet to understand.
guys i think she is a chill guy... anyways, best of luck! mit is my dream school hehe. If (BIG 'if' here lol) I get in I would totally join your club!!!!
THANK YOU! that's kinda silly cuz mit was not even close to a dream school for me, the first time i visited it was when i was applying and i was like damn thank god i'm not going here cuz this place lowk ugly..... 💀 and if you do get in hit me up omggg i'd be so down to host you for cpw and take you to our club meetings!!!!! please join yes!!!
Im in community college, even my old friends think im going to harvard, but Im not going to Harvard since I'm extremely smart. I was considering going to Temple University After Community College.
I’ve had the same reactions to mine 😭 I got into my hardest one on Friday and I was kinda freaking out bc I didn’t think I would get in but I’m happy about all of it regardless.
why is bro so calm after getting into upenn. I sensed no reaction 💀 anyways congrats on MIT (CS)! I'm applying to college in about 2 years or so. let me into wharton upenn pwease....
oh i didn't apply cs for mit! for a time i was convinced i would do cs though (u have the freedom to choose any major you want once you're in) but now i'm not doing that anymore LMAO (cs + neuro/cogsci/psych) i believe in you!! even if you don't end up there you will do so well dw :)
maybe!! i don't want to become like one of those college influencers cuz i feel like it's always super toxic/attracts toxic ppl TT what do you think it'll help with? i basically just did stuff i liked,, like i hosted a few game jams and stuff :D if you just want to know my stats though you can probably find my reddit post on r/collegeresults (it's the june 9th post, search bay area cs mit r/collegeresults and you'll find it)
The Colonial Colleges consist of: Harvard 1636; William & Mary 1693; Yale 1701; Pennsylvania 1740; Princeton 1746; Columbia 1754; Brown 1764; Rutgers 1766; Dartmouth 1769. Let it be known that Dartmouth has virtually no departments that are nationally ranked.
@@jolieyay not choosing MIT because it's ugly would've been even crazier, best of luck on ur journey. There's grade deflation at MIT but you'll be fine
i can't send it since it's got some private stuff on it, but it's literally just names on the left and dropdowns on the right LMAO, lmk if you have any issue making it though
i'd be lying if i said it wasn't prestige and the name... but i think the people were also really nice :) i did have to weigh my options of game dev esp since gt was SO much better for it, but my roommate is pursuing game dev as well so it's us against the world fr LMAO i think cpw (campus preview weekend) was pretty nice and i really liked the people i met there. i'm unfortunately not as close with them anymore, but it kind of proved to me that mit wouldn't be that different from gt (so it wouldn't be miserable even tho i liked the campus & clubs sm more) & i'm privileged enough to be able to afford going there. obviously it was 2x gt's price (even oos) so it wasn't that easy of a decision, but i also felt that it'd give me an "easier life" bc of its name
i've posted it in the comments in a reply to another comment and told other ppl what to search up i don't want to spread it around so much since it ties pretty tightly with my online persona
it was prob cuz of my major lol -- i applied pure CS for both!! (funnily enough, now that i'm at mit and have to freedom to major in anything i want i don't wanna major in cs anymore LOL)
YO NICEEE!!! hmm i mean do you mean smaller projects to teach ppl things or a big project you guys work together on? cuz i'm working on an rpg w/ narrative here so we get to split into art/narrative/music/code
@@jolieyay woah thats amazing, for this i mean smaller projects to teach so we can experiment with game dev as a whole since sometimes a big project is kind of overwhelming
@@angelicpancake ooh!! i do have some slides/mini projects from my high school club if you want them? they're all qa'd so they're p high quality imo but they're all in unity
@@angelicpancake YEAH OFCC you can find them at gamedevclub.tech/lessons I was there for the unity projects but not the godot ones (although it looks like there's only a platformer so far), they've been growinggg i'm so proud of them aaaa
Congratulations on MIT!!! Also very cool video! I appreciate how you put subtitles😆It is so cool watching people's acceptance videos. Currently I am a sophomore in HS and I feel like I have been overrhinking about college lately. Like im trying to be in extracurriculars, sports, take AP classes, etc.. Im thinking of majoring in Psychology so far. I was just wondering what you did in HS, if you dont mind me asking. Like what extracurruculars or what kind of grades did you get?
hey! i had a 4.0 but my school also didn't account for +/-, don't stress abt college literally just do what you like. i also like psych, i self-studied ap psych your year :D this is the time to explore and find what you have passion for! do NOT do things just for college you will 99% regret it. at the end of the day you want to look back on high school and be happy you did what made you happy, instead of letting your emotions be dictated by some random ao who might've rejected you on accident
Wow. I never knew how much I needed this advice. Thank you so much! The reason I felt like that was bc my dream school is Stanford and I know it's really hard to get into. But I realized that there are plenty of other opportunities out there and I shouldn't get bummed out over a school. Good luck on the rest of your college journey and hopefully you can achieve what you want to achieve! Also, good luck on your game dev club!
@Xitlali-n1q hey my dream school was stanford at one point as well! i'm super glad i didn't get in though, not to throw shade but i did not really vibe with people there during admit weekend (i visited to see a friend). i'm glad i could help you get a new perspective though!! i'm sure you will do great; make yourself happy and all will follow :)
LOL yeah, i had a reaction planned for stanford (if i got in) but i had the feeling that i wouldn't get mit so it was genuinely unprepared.... like i had planned to open the decision then go straight back to reading the play but that did Not happen
@@jolieyay but getting into the schools that you have is a huge achievement regardless of how horrible the process is! i just hate the way the education system functions oops
@@jolieyay Actually, I only heard back from one place (my top choice), the rest are pending. But that does not bode well for me 😅. Thanks for the encouragement tho!
@@allenshaw9996 ahh that was me after stanford!! (tbf it wasn't rly even my top choice, it was just close to home and a good school but they didn't even let a game dev club form so LMAO) things turned out fine for me -- i would be just as happy if i was at gt instead of mit, if not happier -- so honestly there is not much to do now except wait TT.. good luck though, i'm sure you'll do great!!
congratulations on ur acceptances! i remember seeing your reddit post a while back 😅 and we have similar demographics but im currently a sophomore. also interested in CS, can you share how you got started and how you accomplished so much in the coding area? game jams seem really cool but I haven’t coded very often, but i’d like to get started. congrats again! 🎉
hii :D i started cs w/ usaco which was an Interesting idea .. if you wanna start game dev follow a tutorial to make your first game (i can send you some resources i helped make)!! then once you're more familiar w/ the process try to make your own game :) i tend to stay mostly within my comfort zone but also branch out with like 1 or 2 small things (e.x. adding cinemachine or some combat system i've never done) i'm actually like lowk Very mid at game dev in terms of coding though, i like to make visual novels so there's not as much coding involved
@@nobodyinparticular1274 i don't really like following videos but you might like youtube tutorials :0 i would recommend my hs club's resources though, i think they're super beginner-friendly and they're qa'd and everything :D (they're at gamedevclub.tech/lessons) i started usaco in freshman year i think? i was hardstuck bronze for like a year or two... skull...
YOOOO FELLOW JOLIE!!! HELLO :DDD apparently there are Three of us at mit.. it's so weird to see someone w that name cuz i'm so used to being the only one in my life named that,, wait why are you scared :( worst case they just think you're not suitable for their school/you wouldn't mesh with the other ppl they alr admitted which isn't a bad thing (it means you wouldn't have a good time there anyways)!!
@@jolieyaythis perspective makes me feel better abt possible rejections 😭 but I’m only applying to like 7 schools and am hoping that I’ll get accepted by all of them :^)
LITERALLY LOL i was so confused esp bc i was completely expecting rejection like why would they raise their acceptance rate for Me... (they didn't though 💀)
LMAOOO thank you!! don't worry about college yettt ur literally a junior omg TT i didn't worry until like june..... post is www.reddit.com/r/collegeresults/comments/1dc1gic/common_asian_cs_girl_bags_mit/ HAHA. don't out me pls

hey i got rejected stanford rea too!! (i'm sure you knew from the vid though 😭) twinning :)) and yeah it's definitely not the case that the mit name is carrying me or anything, if anything i'm just struggling much harder bc of this place :D
I think some of the other schools like UW were using protection yield and rejected her because they thought she wouldn't attend since her scores were so high.
lowkey i think that's the case for uiuc and cmu (none of which i applied pure cs) and maybe ut/unc (i'm oos), but the rest prob weren't cuz cs is just so hard to get into
It was likely not yield protection for UW. UW out of state CS is super competitive. It's only a 2% acceptance rate. UIUC has a 6% acceptance rate for CS. UT is also very hard to get into out of state due to the auto admit legislation in Texas.
@@mythicbliss747 word
@@mythicbliss747 yep completely agree!! except for uiuc i didn't apply pure cs (as i mentioned in the comment before yours) & the year before it had a 25% acceptance rate
the reason i said maybe for ut is cuz other ppl from my school got in for cs, but i don't know their profile so they could just be hella cracked LOL
@@jolieyay Some very privileged applicants are able to hire admissions consultants, and don't forget about legacy applicants. But it also could just be fit. There's a lot of BS that goes on in college admissions but you mainted a positive attitude which is encouraging to see. Your MIT application was probably really good and demonstrated a good fit for the school. MIT is better than those schools anyways, it doesn't matter what people say.
About to go through this process. I've never seen someone so humble :0. Also ur so right abt it jus being a college. i dont think i will ever see someone react to mit like tha. i also get where ur coming from cuz i go to a p toxic school lol
AW you'll get out of that environment soon, hopefully!! and yeah like we got tech issues everywhereee wdym we're #1 tech school Hello.. our websites don't even load & they look like they were made in 2002....... at the end of the day i believe you will make the most of every situation you're handed!
Congrats queen :)
"i just got into college" jolie's words after she got into THE MIT
Hiding the screen after mit is so real 😭 congrats
Honestly congrats on all the acceptances!
omg hi jack!!! thanks :DD
lol congrats, best EIC fr!

@ jw
@@쩡-f8d AHHHH omg how did you find this that's so silly HAHAH thank you omg!!!
ayee! congratulations!!!
OMG JOLIE W REACTION VID; GDC MISSES U SO MUCH 😭😭😭😭😭😭
OMFGDHSLDKHGSKLGSDHLKDKSHD HOW DID THIS REACH YOU I'M CRYINGGG I MISS YOU GUYS SO MUCH AS WELLL UGHGHHH
knew you'd end up somewhere great when u applied REA to Stanford... congrats!!! and ur right ur so chill throughout the whole video 😭 I was surprised to see u just smile a bit when u saw the Penn acceptance
AWW HAHA yeah rewatching that i literally had like Zero reaction wtf LMAAOOOO i think cuz i alr had mit it was like would i even go there.. prob not... i could not point out pennsylvania to you on a map......
i think i had some hope for the stanny rea since i watched someone else's reaction vid and i thought we were p similar
Ok why am I 33 and watching these videos 😭. You have a great head on your shoulders. Good luck at MIT!!
HAHA aww thank you for the support!! i'm sure you have done so many cool things already :) thank you & good luck to you as well, wherever you currently are!!
a refreshing reaction video, have fun wherever you go 🎉
THANKS!! i'm at mit rn :)
OMG CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL UR COLLEGES!!! CAN U PLEASE MAKE A STATS VIDEO ITS BEEN MY DREAM TO GET INTO MIT!!!!!
Got into UPenn and MIT and got rejected from UIUC???!!! Make it make sense...
this might be infinite aura
That had to have been the most underwhelming reaction to getting into an Ivy 😂Congratulations!
LOL thank you!! and yeah i already had mit at that point so i knew even if i got in i probably wouldn't go,,
would you be able to share some of your application stats? (just gpa, sat and extracurriculars)
The acceptance into MIT but not Cal Poly is crazy work by the admissions officers at Cal Poly. I aspire to be like you.
wait cal poly is lowk rng though i don't think they even asked for my ecs or any essays so it's basically just all on grades/courses
CONGRATSs, stats and ECs vid plz?
thank you!! you can find them in a shady reddit post LMAO
www.reddit.com/r/collegeresults/comments/1dc1gic/common_asian_cs_girl_bags_mit/
First of its kind college reaction video. After watching hundreds of screaming college reaction videos I am glad I came across your video. After this I will not be watching anymore college reaction videos. 🙏
this was sooo relaxing
i'm glad i can be your makeshift asmr HAHA
woah you’re really just a chill guy
whoa congrats!🥰this may be a silly question, but how can u apply ea to other schools if stanford is restrictive early action? thank uuu
great video, congrats!
thank you!! :DD
bro got into mit and said "i just got into college" nonchalant as FUCK, also how tf u just start scrolling like that with no reaction after penn im actually dead. This some next level shit I am yet to understand.
LMAAO i mean when you have like 50 more decisions to go through.. 😭
Congrats!
thank you!!
guys i think she is a chill guy... anyways, best of luck! mit is my dream school hehe. If (BIG 'if' here lol) I get in I would totally join your club!!!!
THANK YOU! that's kinda silly cuz mit was not even close to a dream school for me, the first time i visited it was when i was applying and i was like damn thank god i'm not going here cuz this place lowk ugly..... 💀
and if you do get in hit me up omggg i'd be so down to host you for cpw and take you to our club meetings!!!!! please join yes!!!
Im in community college, even my old friends think im going to harvard, but Im not going to Harvard since I'm extremely smart. I was considering going to Temple University After Community College.
I’ve had the same reactions to mine 😭 I got into my hardest one on Friday and I was kinda freaking out bc I didn’t think I would get in but I’m happy about all of it regardless.
AWW congrats that's amazing!!! so proud of you ♥
@ Thanks 🫶
@ thank you! You too!
Hello! How did you apply Early Action to other institutions, if you applied REA to Stanford, which restricts that if I am not mistaken?)
hey!! rea means you can't ea to any other *private* school, which means i ea'd all the public schools i applied to :)
why is bro so calm after getting into upenn. I sensed no reaction 💀
anyways congrats on MIT (CS)! I'm applying to college in about 2 years or so.
let me into wharton upenn pwease....
oh i didn't apply cs for mit! for a time i was convinced i would do cs though (u have the freedom to choose any major you want once you're in) but now i'm not doing that anymore LMAO (cs + neuro/cogsci/psych)
i believe in you!! even if you don't end up there you will do so well dw :)
CONGRATULATIONSSS OMG do you think you could upload a stats video because MIT is one of the schools I want to go to so it would be really helpful!!!
maybe!! i don't want to become like one of those college influencers cuz i feel like it's always super toxic/attracts toxic ppl TT what do you think it'll help with? i basically just did stuff i liked,, like i hosted a few game jams and stuff :D
if you just want to know my stats though you can probably find my reddit post on r/collegeresults (it's the june 9th post, search bay area cs mit r/collegeresults and you'll find it)
your reaction was so cute and calm
AWE thank you ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡
No reaction to Penn could NEVER be me! Congrats!
HAHAH i mean i already had mit so i knew i probably wasn't gonna go 😭 i did consider it but only for a few days
The Colonial Colleges consist of: Harvard 1636; William & Mary 1693; Yale 1701; Pennsylvania 1740; Princeton 1746; Columbia 1754; Brown 1764; Rutgers 1766; Dartmouth 1769. Let it be known that Dartmouth has virtually no departments that are nationally ranked.
getting into MIT with it not being your dream school is crazy
LMAO when i first visited here i thought it was so ugly and i was thanking the fact that i wouldn't come here (i was wrong)
@@jolieyay not choosing MIT because it's ugly would've been even crazier, best of luck on ur journey. There's grade deflation at MIT but you'll be fine
@@Mike-r2i5v just failed my first final idk if i will be fine HAHA thanks though
@@jolieyay PLEASE make a video on ur common app IM ON KNEES GIRL
Got into Georgia Tech and MIT AND Purdue, all tier 1 schools. No worries about the others.
By effect of applying to a shit ton of top CS schools you happened to cover basically my entire list lol. Hopefully I get the same luck as you.
YOOO HAHAH omg there's no need to apply to so many schools don't overwork yourself TT
hey can u send the excel u used to track college app progress, I would really like a template like that!!!
i can't send it since it's got some private stuff on it, but it's literally just names on the left and dropdowns on the right LMAO, lmk if you have any issue making it though
what made you choose mit over gtech in the end?
i'd be lying if i said it wasn't prestige and the name... but i think the people were also really nice :) i did have to weigh my options of game dev esp since gt was SO much better for it, but my roommate is pursuing game dev as well so it's us against the world fr LMAO
i think cpw (campus preview weekend) was pretty nice and i really liked the people i met there. i'm unfortunately not as close with them anymore, but it kind of proved to me that mit wouldn't be that different from gt (so it wouldn't be miserable even tho i liked the campus & clubs sm more) & i'm privileged enough to be able to afford going there. obviously it was 2x gt's price (even oos) so it wasn't that easy of a decision, but i also felt that it'd give me an "easier life" bc of its name
@@jolieyay that's great. As long as you are happy with your decision! I cannot wait to see you achieve all you want to. All the best at college!
Hey i cant't find ur reddit anywhere can u send the link or smth
i've posted it in the comments in a reply to another comment and told other ppl what to search up
i don't want to spread it around so much since it ties pretty tightly with my online persona
A little curious on why UCSD and UCLA didn't take you? What were your majors?
it was prob cuz of my major lol -- i applied pure CS for both!! (funnily enough, now that i'm at mit and have to freedom to major in anything i want i don't wanna major in cs anymore LOL)
can we get stats?
why are you like fighting for your life in the outro it cannot be that cold ;-;
HAHAHA ummm it was 1 am and i think like -2C or smth?? but it always feels much colder than it really is since the wind is crazy :(
@@jolieyay oh 1am LOL
wait have you seen mit's appearance on "Elite League"/"University War" S2??
go check it outtt i think they had group watch parties somewhere on campus
@@Floof2-o6f WHATT srsly!?!?!? i didn't see any posters/dormspams abt it D: i heard they got eliminated though? :(
stats vid pls!!!
Game Dev is amazing, at my school I am trying to get people to start an easy game dev project at my club what are some projects you suggest :D
YO NICEEE!!! hmm i mean do you mean smaller projects to teach ppl things or a big project you guys work together on? cuz i'm working on an rpg w/ narrative here so we get to split into art/narrative/music/code
@@jolieyay woah thats amazing, for this i mean smaller projects to teach so we can experiment with game dev as a whole since sometimes a big project is kind of overwhelming
@@angelicpancake ooh!! i do have some slides/mini projects from my high school club if you want them? they're all qa'd so they're p high quality imo but they're all in unity
@@jolieyay if ur willing i’ll take them that would be amazing
@@angelicpancake YEAH OFCC you can find them at gamedevclub.tech/lessons
I was there for the unity projects but not the godot ones (although it looks like there's only a platformer so far), they've been growinggg i'm so proud of them aaaa
How did she get into MIT but not so many of the 2nd tier schools????
i mean lowk everything just rides on luck LMAO
This will be me if I ever get into Harvard lmao (but getting way too hype is also an option for me)
thats my roommate !!!
THAT'S MY FAVORITE ROOMAMTE IN THE WORLD?????? HELLO OMG HEART EYES CAT
@@jolieyay YIPPEEEEEE ILY
Congratulations on MIT!!! Also very cool video! I appreciate how you put subtitles😆It is so cool watching people's acceptance videos. Currently I am a sophomore in HS and I feel like I have been overrhinking about college lately. Like im trying to be in extracurriculars, sports, take AP classes, etc.. Im thinking of majoring in Psychology so far. I was just wondering what you did in HS, if you dont mind me asking. Like what extracurruculars or what kind of grades did you get?
hey! i had a 4.0 but my school also didn't account for +/-, don't stress abt college literally just do what you like. i also like psych, i self-studied ap psych your year :D this is the time to explore and find what you have passion for! do NOT do things just for college you will 99% regret it. at the end of the day you want to look back on high school and be happy you did what made you happy, instead of letting your emotions be dictated by some random ao who might've rejected you on accident
Wow. I never knew how much I needed this advice. Thank you so much! The reason I felt like that was bc my dream school is Stanford and I know it's really hard to get into. But I realized that there are plenty of other opportunities out there and I shouldn't get bummed out over a school. Good luck on the rest of your college journey and hopefully you can achieve what you want to achieve! Also, good luck on your game dev club!
@Xitlali-n1q hey my dream school was stanford at one point as well! i'm super glad i didn't get in though, not to throw shade but i did not really vibe with people there during admit weekend (i visited to see a friend). i'm glad i could help you get a new perspective though!! i'm sure you will do great; make yourself happy and all will follow :)
@@jolieyay Thanks!😄
who is this DIVA 💜
omg hello my most loyal subscriber
"i applied here for a girl" is so real
what can i say i love women
praying for MIT in a week 🙏
ngl I'd prolly have the same reaction if I got in cuz I'd be too shocked for my brain to register anything lmfao
LOL yeah, i had a reaction planned for stanford (if i got in) but i had the feeling that i wouldn't get mit so it was genuinely unprepared.... like i had planned to open the decision then go straight back to reading the play but that did Not happen
Can we get the stats and ecs video pls
would this in a video format actually be helpful? i did post my stats online (if you read the pinned comment)
Chill guy music playing in the background frfr
so where did yo go finally?
mit c:
@@jolieyay oh ths crazy! Did you take the SAT's?
@@vicious3981 yeah i submitted my act though (35)
UIUC is not a safety for engineering or cs. Its ranked 5 for cs lol
agree! i did not apply cs; i applied for a program that allegedly had a ~25% acceptance rate the year prior :)
@@jolieyay oh that's weird doesn't make sense then. Lol. Admissions are weird. Dont know how you get mit and penn but not duke and use thats wild
Please do a stat and Ecs video for us please
congrats omg!! i’m also a girl in cs currently applying to colleges rn,, do u have any advice? 😓😓
omg hey good luck!! i think my view on cs has like completely changed since coming here though
Please do a stats video!!!!
this shows why college apps are so random looolll
wait literally! i bet if i had applied another year i would've gotten completely diff results
@@jolieyay but getting into the schools that you have is a huge achievement regardless of how horrible the process is! i just hate the way the education system functions oops
@@tubulguptaaa thank you!! and totally agree omg
Stats and ECs plzzz🎉
I'm watching this right now for some solidarity about my rejections :')
omg did they come out already!?!? don't worry you're meant to do great things, the college you go to won't hinder that :))
@@jolieyay Actually, I only heard back from one place (my top choice), the rest are pending. But that does not bode well for me 😅.
Thanks for the encouragement tho!
@@allenshaw9996 ahh that was me after stanford!! (tbf it wasn't rly even my top choice, it was just close to home and a good school but they didn't even let a game dev club form so LMAO)
things turned out fine for me -- i would be just as happy if i was at gt instead of mit, if not happier -- so honestly there is not much to do now except wait TT.. good luck though, i'm sure you'll do great!!
not hating on you but how did you get to MIT but rejected to the likes of Stanford, UNC-Chapel Hill and UoW??
congrats on MIT
I mean all of these schools are competitive. Especially, Stanford? Not sure why you grouped it with UofW
congratulations on ur acceptances! i remember seeing your reddit post a while back 😅 and we have similar demographics but im currently a sophomore. also interested in CS, can you share how you got started and how you accomplished so much in the coding area? game jams seem really cool but I haven’t coded very often, but i’d like to get started. congrats again! 🎉
hii :D i started cs w/ usaco which was an Interesting idea .. if you wanna start game dev follow a tutorial to make your first game (i can send you some resources i helped make)!! then once you're more familiar w/ the process try to make your own game :) i tend to stay mostly within my comfort zone but also branch out with like 1 or 2 small things (e.x. adding cinemachine or some combat system i've never done)
i'm actually like lowk Very mid at game dev in terms of coding though, i like to make visual novels so there's not as much coding involved
@ thanks sm! it’d be great if you could send some resources! and just wondering, when did u start usaco?
@@nobodyinparticular1274 i don't really like following videos but you might like youtube tutorials :0 i would recommend my hs club's resources though, i think they're super beginner-friendly and they're qa'd and everything :D (they're at gamedevclub.tech/lessons)
i started usaco in freshman year i think? i was hardstuck bronze for like a year or two... skull...
Here I am getting rejected by Cornell 😂
aw me too, don't worry!! we will thrive so hard at other places :)
omg we have to same name, also I'm so scared to apply next year
YOOOO FELLOW JOLIE!!! HELLO :DDD apparently there are Three of us at mit.. it's so weird to see someone w that name cuz i'm so used to being the only one in my life named that,,
wait why are you scared :( worst case they just think you're not suitable for their school/you wouldn't mesh with the other ppl they alr admitted which isn't a bad thing (it means you wouldn't have a good time there anyways)!!
@@jolieyaythis perspective makes me feel better abt possible rejections 😭 but I’m only applying to like 7 schools and am hoping that I’ll get accepted by all of them :^)
@@Minatheowl394 haha hey, the less acceptances you get the less decisions you'll have to make!! :)

Also what is BUkb. Additionally, do u have insta?
I love that nobody ever understands what tf the NUin program is when they get accepted to NEU
LITERALLY LOL i was so confused esp bc i was completely expecting rejection like why would they raise their acceptance rate for Me... (they didn't though 💀)
me seeing this and having to wait till january to apply for a public university 😭 ( I live in Brazil)
Congratulations on the MIT acceptance
What is your major? Initially, I wasn't sure if you were fall 2024 or 2025.
computer science for almost everything and yeah i'm 2024 i just published the video late LOL

Im guessing you chose MIT?
