Stats that Got Me into the iVy LeAgUe (Columbia, UPenn, USC...) | How to beat a 5% acceptance rate

- I got into the Ivy League and other selective universities with these stats (SAT scores, SAT subject test scores, AP exam scores, GPA), extracurriculars, and essays.
I was accepted to Columbia with a likely letter, University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), California Institute of Technology (Caltech), Johns Hopkins, Rice, Vanderbilt, Emory, University of Southern California (USC) as a full Trustee Scholar, University of Maryland (UMD) as a full-ride Banneker/Key Scholar, and Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT).
Note: You do NOT need to go to an Ivy League (or any top-tier) college to achieve success! You should choose whichever college is best for you and then make the most of your environment!

I forgot to mention one of the most important parts of this video: You do NOT need to go to an Ivy League college to achieve success (I'm not!). Different colleges are better for different people! Plus, your college does not define who you are. You should choose whichever college is best for you and then make the most of your environment!

We never want cost to be a barrier to receiving our help so please let us know if you can't afford our services, and we're happy to adjust prices!
“I got a pretty good score” I was expecting like a 1470 , she gets a 1580
Her: 1580 first try
Me: I might as well drop out
Thank you so much for the essay advice. I’ve really been struggling because I’ve been trying to come up with a unique topic but this really helped boost my motivation and made me realize that as long as I speak about something meaningful to me, that’s all that’ll matter, I really really needed to hear this
Yes!!! Good luck
1:50 - 100% agree, 1580 is a great score. Take the time to sleep in (or use the time you'd put towards studying to build out other parts of your application that'll help you stand out even more!)
You are literally AMAZING!! Could you please make an SAT prep video sharing tips and giving advice?
Congrats!
FUEGO STATS GO AMANDA!!!
Could you please make a video about self studying for AP exams. It would be of great help.
YO THE EDITING FYREEEE
THANK YOUUU
Hi! Congrats on all of your acceptances! I have a question. Does it look bad on my college application if my mom and I work at the same place? My mom does not own the place and is not the boss/manager.
Thank you! I think that should be fine; I know people who had similar situations :)
hi! how were you able to conduct biomedical research as a high schooler?
PLEASE post a video of tips for the reading section of the sat!!!
YESS I gotchu!! I will def post an SAT study tips video!
Whoa! How did you prep for the SAT?
Hi how did u get a research position? I'm struggling to get one right now :(
Yes, pleaseeee make a video with all the high school classes you took!!!
I will!! :)
heyy! if you're interested, my friends and i started a company called collegae ( collegae.weebly.com ) that provides affordable college counseling where you can speak to a collegian from schools (we have stanford, uc berkeley, harvard, upenn, princeton, and so much more) for just $20/ half hour! they can answer questions like what their essay was on, how they got in, their stats, extracurriculars, what classes they took, campus life/culture, and so much more! hope this helps:)
@@bethanytong2338 im not really your target demographic but i just wanted to thank you for saving the advertising for a video that actually relates to your company lmao
She legit got perfect grades, wtf
YESSS GO MANDERS!!!
:') THANKS EMMY
Can you please talk about how did you self study for aps thank u
hey. can you please tell me how and from where to give AP Tests because I live in India and there is no concept of AP tests here.
Hii Mandy! What high school did you go to?
Can you talk more about how you were able to do research? I’m interested in doing some science research,but I don’t know how to get into it.
Same
hello Mandy! you seemed to have gotten so many awards but the common app only lets you put 5 "honors", so i was wondering what did you do about that? did you just choose your top 5, or if you had more, did you manage to squeeze them in another way?
This was a question I had too, haha! I ended up including as many awards as possible in my activities section, and I just included my five "biggest" awards in the honors section.
@@MandyMade ahhh okay that makes sense, thanks so much!
did you apply cornell?please answer
So, congrats. Impressive indeed.
The formula for anyone interested is this:
All As, plus multiple APs to run the GPA well above 4.5;
Perfect or near perfect test scores;
Be president of some clubs or organizations;
Be a athletic standout and captain;
Cure cancer or the like in prestigious summer jobs unavailable to the rank and file;
Show some further passion in something or unique life hurdle or work 40 hours a week on top of the foregoing.
Your application will then be seriously considered for the few Ivy spots left over each year after a majority of spots are taken by legacy applicants, applicants where a parent donated a building, athletes, and a few other special groups.
Hi! Did you have a specific topic for your science research? I'm planning on working on one this summer but I'm struggling to fid a topic. Any advice?
Hi! Both my science research internships were related to biomedical science. One was in medicinal chemistry, and the other was in computational biology. I worked at a research laboratory with a mentor, so if you can work under a researcher/professor I think that is very helpful! If you can't work in a lab, I think computer science/data science type of research is generally easier to do remotely. For example, you could conduct some sort of analysis on social media data that's available to the public! You can also read research papers to get more ideas!
I hope that's helpful! Also, I plan to make a video in the near future talking all about my research internships and how I got them :).
@@MandyMade Thank you so much! My chemistry teacher has offered to mentor me, which is really exciting! I'm interested in food science and culinary chemistry and I'll work on specifying my research paper while also being able to remotely do it. This was super helpful :).
Mandy Made Also, where could I find research papers to read?
@@carina5633 Yeah, some websites you can check out are BioMed Central, PubMed, and CORE. I believe these websites let you read papers for free!
OMGG DID U GO TO BLAIR i'm a freshman at blair rn lol
What major are you pursuing?
can you please make a vid with all of your classes?
I did! I have a video with all my classes and grades :)
I have to watch this video to humble myself
Why did you turn down the other colleges?
For several reasons! I will make a video about this very soon! :)
@@MandyMade Looking forward to it! I saw another guy on TH-cam who did the same thing turned down Wesleyan for Maryland.
What major did you apply as
It depended on the school, but for the most part I applied to biomedical engineering, computer science, and/or chemistry.
STATS THAT GOT ME INTO THE IVY LEAGUE
Me: Okay, let's see what suggestion this video would give me
Her: ......so, my superscore was like a 1 6 0 0
Me again: quit the video

Sorry, I'm not sure what the conversion would be! I'm sure your admissions officers will be familiar with your school grading system though :)
Popppppp offfffffff
A true scholar athlete😪😎
But gosh you’re amazing!!!!!!
@@carolinehallmark7911 AH THANK YOU CAROLINE!!!! I miss you!!!!!
All of these brag videos - and it is absolutely what they are - create unrealistic expectations, not to mention anxiety, for other kids. And what we don't know about this young woman is her level of privilege and how much help she got throughout high school and in prepping for college. She is obviously bright and seems like a nice young woman, but please do not use a student like this as a benchmark for your own high school and college application experience. Everyone is different. Everyone's brains work differently. And, there's literally hundreds of good colleges one can consider and which can prepare students for success.
I don't think she's privileged, she's hard working. These expectations are realistic if you try hard enough
@@ashywashy4376 You don't know one way or the other.
