    For anyone interested the book “A for Admissions” is a great overview of the PROCESS behind the application file. The author does a great job describing the intricacies that go in the reading process (i.e. one reader accepts, which only pass through on reader before getting the directors stamp of approval; I believe this is why some files are only read twice).

    I am slow. I enjoy Open Learn classes based in the UK these days. I went to Southern New Hampshire University where I enjoyed wasting my time. I can go to CC and get better feedback. I like Mizzou, which is pretty much the only university that taught me how to study and learn. I am grateful but can't handle the stress of school. I do like taking a class here and there.

Im currently a sophomore in HS. Does anyone have advice on what to write ab on the commonage essay or what I can do to make me stand out?

    • @gproverbs2551
      @gproverbs2551 Před 4 lety

      Write about how you dont stand out. How lucky or unlucky are you to not have life shattering experiences and how moving to college might make a possible difference in the way you view your life now?

    • @michellefoley8438

      hey congrats on your happy family lol sounds like you have a nice life! I think you should just take on challenging and interesting extracurriculars. They'll give you cool experiences to reflect on and grow from. I wrote about art and got into Yale, and I'm a white female with decent money and a happy family. You don't need a tragic or super unique life story to get into college in my opinion

    I from Germany and go to university there, but I find it very interesting to watch the process of college in the us :D
    We apply a little different for university in Germany, it’s all about the grades at public university, we don’t have to write an essay or list any activities we did.
    sometimes I’m not sure if the American process is better or ours.
    Awesome videos and enjoy your winter break 😊🎄

    • @arianelevesque3899
      @arianelevesque3899 Před 5 lety +1

      In Quebec it's just about grades as well, Universities will let you put in an essay solely if you had extenuating circumstances as to why your grades aren't so good (example: Depression, Loss of a parent, etc.) but the best universities will only base off on R Score (a ranking for all the students that include class standing, school standing and the orverall quality of your work).

    is Ivy League the same as Oxford/cambridge or Russell group universities?

    • @orikane1
      @orikane1 Před 5 lety

      Not really. There are only 8 universities in the Ivy League. The Ivy League was founded as an athletic conference and consists of 8 random schools in the northeastern part of the US. That said, they are all great universities and would resemble Oxbridge a lot more than the entire Russell Group.
