    LMAO this is honestly so hilarious thanks to your personality; also, it’s so refreshing to see that people can get into great schools based on a balance of everything and not 12 APs and a 4.8 !!!

    You seem like such an interesting person! I have a bad habit of going on Reddit and going on the chanceme thread and literally everyone who got into Berkeley had national scholars and 1580s on their SAT. It is nice to see someone who has a better personality get in.

      Nia Rasul I know a lot of kids who had scores around 1100-1200 and got in or were waitlisted so it is DEF not all about scores! Forget the chanceme threads 😎

    i got in with 1160 on the sat, a couple of c’s and a bunch of failed ap exams. but i was president of the key club at my school and officer for a bunch of other clubs. extracurriculars help so much! as well as how much you stand out compared to other students in your area. grades and test scores should not define your worth y’all 😌
