  • Hey guys! I got a few messages asking me for a video about how I got into U of R after I posted my "things I wish I knew before university" video soooo I gathered all the courage in me and made this video! I hope it's helpful:)
    OH ALSO, if any of you are watching this when it's that stressful time period of applying to colleges, I just want to say that not getting into college/not getting into your dream college is not the end of the world! Things happen for a reason and college is only a small part of our lives. I'm also here if any of you guys have questions!

    Oh my goodness you poor thing with all that SAT Prep. That is so strange that your score did not improve much. I’m glad it did not affect your eventual outcome and good on your parents for trying to give you the support because you wanted to achieve a high score.
