@@imdva ok im gonna spill the tea here ( u are right that its the 90th percentile) but if u can ask urself this question on every question u can get a 1500. The question is this: where is answer A (B or C or D) said in the passage. This is specifically for the reading but for math my tip is be logical. But you are right that not all people can get a 1500
I'm applying for colleges rn and feel a lot of reassurance cause I've done basically the same exact things as you. Hope you are successful in college and beyond!
Might as well update this. Looking back at it now, while a lot of our profile was similar, we did differ in a few areas. I ended up getting into Brown, Yale, MIT, and a couple BS/MDs. The decision I landed on was MIT. Thanks for the advice, and I am happy to see you are doing well!
I'm a sophomore and literally terrified of the extracurricular part of applications. I'm an introvert, so I literally don't do anything that has to do with groups of people whatsoever. I also don't play sports or instruments :(
Don't stress yourself out too much, if you need assurance, I'm a senior in highschool, and have no extracurriculars. And I'm going towards a below average university. You still have time to do stuff. So take action right now. Go volunteer or join a group, or help out your community. (Or be good at writing essays) You're going to have to get out of your shell if you're actually going to these selective schools. Or go into community college, work your ass off, and go to a university. Good luck! There's always a path for everyone.
That’s totally ok imo, I’m an introvert as well and I believe it can be an advantage because you can shine in your own unique way and maybe write a cool college essay about being introverted while still following your interests. There are tons of extracurricular activities that can set you apart :) good luck
You can volunteer then! Volunteering doesn't have to be in groups so you could maybe join a volunteering club at your group and go to events on your own or just find like a food bank or something in your city that you can volunteer at. You could also try to start a club to connect with other introverts! (it could look good and you could talk about leadership and struggling to interact with people because you're an introvert, etc.)
Thank you so much for what you said about extracurriculars!! So many people do lots of extracurriculars all over the place and don't have time to commit to any of the activities because they're jumping back and forth. I tell my friends, "If you're committing to too much, you're not committing to anything." More people need to hear what you said!👏👏👏
It’s so great to plan ahead so good for you! I’m in 9th grade and have been preparing myself as much as possible. Just an FYI since your like myself lol, volunteer young!! If a university sees a student that only started In grade 11 or 12 they might be like “welll… they’re probably only starting now because they’re only now thinking of they’re future” but! If they see that you’ve been a well rounded person for YEARS! That makes a huge difference. So it’s great your informing yourself young!
This was really helpful! I just wanted to ask about how you decided your college list? Like how do you decide schools that you are capable of getting into? Do you look at acceptance rates or other statistics? What if your college list has a disproportionate amount of reach schools?
Hi, can I have a question about the extracurricular? I’m in 10th grade and I wonder what kind of proof do you use to make the college officer believe that you actually did that kind of extracurricular? For example if I host and perform in a concert for my school students to watch then how do probe that I actually did that? Is there have to be kind of a document or something?
Great video! In your video you said that you submitted music videos/supplements but you are a biochem major? Does sending music recordings increase admission chance even if one is a premed major?
im sorry for being so unapologetically candid, but you're so handsome and I just wish I could have someone with your appearance brains and ambitions around me.
I feel so demotivated cuz I never got the chance to get into extracurriculars, I have 0 achievements cuz my school bus came at 5 in the morning and I reached home at 4 in the evening, my grades and academic awards are great tho, amd I research too, idk if I'll get accepted anywhere
3 years later and this video is still super helpful, thank you!!
for any underclassmen, 1550 is a very high score so please don’t get discouraged if your score ends up being 1300 or even 1250
Yeah dont but also dont think u can get into a ivy with that if u get a lower than 1450 then dont submit
@@rizzvit yea but ivy isnt realistic for everyone. not everyone can get a 1500 or it wouldnt be 90th+ percentile
