![how i got into ivies [princeton, brown, duke, etc]!! stats, ecs, gpa, sat, honors 😩](/img/n.gif)
BRO. you reading out your ap scores and not having any 5s was such a relief, i’ve had all 4s and one 3 and i was doubting whether or not colleges would care about that. thanks so much for this video :)
you have to keep in mind that TASP is a 4% acceptance and Coca Cola is less than 1%. Both of these are highly regarded by colleges, which definitely gave her application a boost. you might need something to draw their attention so they don't take your AP scores as much into consideration
@@julia-pw8fz what??
@Aboodi Sadiq yes
@@keshavagarwal8304 yep :) it's absolutely insane, TASP and coca cola tend to be more competitive than getting into college
Besides APs, GPA and SAT, the essays and extracurriculars are very important. Use the essay to tell something which the grades and extracurriculars can't
Saw the ECS and awards and really sat down thinking what I did with my time
Same 😞
This exact conversation is what I am having with myself. As senior, now that I'm sitting here...I realized that I didn't do enough. And as the 1st child, I really didn't have anyone to guide me, but I know that that's my fault and is something I should've worked to attain, I guess.
*siiiiigh* ah man
@@sridevisudhahar309 i mean i did have an older sibling but he wasn’t that good in school himself but ik this isn’t an excuse so will change
@@sridevisudhahar309 that’s okay! Yes it sucks that knowledge wasn’t there for you at the best point for all this BUT as someone who went to school on a full ride and had her dream title a few years after that…. FIND A MENTOR both in school and in work and just constantly seek the best advice for all the different facets of your life in college and it’ll set you up to succeed even more when you get to internships, jobs and etc! You GOT THIS!
@@aisham744 damn i slacked off so hard during 9th grade, pretty sure my parents paid for me to pass cause my school is shitty as hell, do i still have a chance to get atleast a 3.0?
I'm theorizing but I've heard many say that it is the nationally recognized honors/awards that get you into these top schools - huge congrats to the presidents volunteer service award!
a lot of people get pvsa, in my opinion its tasp... tasp's acceptance rate for the summer program is about 3%, literally nobody gets to go.
Only award I’ve ever earned so far is a certificate for Classical Greek exam with merit.
bro she’s a fucking coke scholar and got into tasp 💀💀💀
Subscribed after watching you opening your admission letters, already love your videos! Your parents reaction made me smile when you got in to the IVY's!
I wish I had learned time management better early on bc my ECs will probably be what holds me back from Ivies/Ivy levels. Still, so proud of you bc that’s so much to do💀
Congratssss you seem like such a sweetheart 🥺💘
Congrats!! You’ve literally motivated me so much!
Me:
Reads stats: THERE IS HOPE
Reads ECs: Never mind…
All i can say--you’re so awesome!!! 🙌
I had a weird situation this year I was in rehab and then homeless so I didn’t get to finish high school this year. But for 9th,10th,11th I had a unweighted gpa of 3.8
You have great potential. Go for it and finish. 👍🏿
You’ve got an opportunity here dude! You’re very clever, imagine what you could do if you went back and finished high school!! Sky’s the limit, don’t waste it 💖
That’s gonna make a great admission essay. Good luck 🍀
Well my older brother was similar except he wasn’t in rehab he was in prison, starting the last 3 months of high school. It was so weird because they had to ask him to be valedictorian of the class as he had first class honors all the way through. He had to turn it down because he knew he was going to jail for selling and using LSD.
Join high school back again just do it! You have so much potential don’t waste It money doesn’t matter.
Your application says so much about your personality!! Well deserved to be accepted to those schools. Congrats!!!
P.S. Which major did you apply for?
Please post a first day of school and orientation 💕 i would love to see you continue a great channel love the vids :))!!!
THE SELL OUT LIFE LMAOOOOO
congrats again !!! columbia wouldve been closer for me but ill be visiting u one day at pton for sure !
yess cw ;)
Honestly i’m loving your videos, i love your sense of humor. Congrats on your achievements ❤️
Counting middle school gpa wtf 😱 obv all countries differ in how university applications and merit is calculated (and all have different pros and cons) but wow wow wow. I’m from Sweden where only your 3 years of high school count to your gpa, and universities accept you solely based on your gpa or your högskoleprov (SATs essentially) scores. I definitely would’ve enjoyed an essay being included in the application (to balance out the standardisation of merit and tests) but also am so glad not to have had to go through worrying about extra curriculars and all that jazz y’all have to deal with to be ‘eligible’ for competitive universities and programs. Sounds like a full time job just applying (and preparing for applications) to college for fucks sake! Not even counting financial aid and scholarship applications…. Super interesting vid, learnt a lot! Best of luck with uni mate ❤️
I think she took high school courses in middle school which factored into the GPA.
@@unknownperson3691 that’s so brutal they just listed it as “p” for pass for us 😭😭
And congratsss!!!💗
Girl keep smashing it!!!
not surprised that u got into these schools after seeing these crazy awards ❤️
this video both somehow assured me and made me even more worried 💀
this is the most R E A L I S T I C video I have ever seen
You give me a lot of hope.
Really strong application. Glad to see ur doing well.
Jeeeeezzzz, I just came from your decisions video, very happy im here for the stats vid
me too! it's honestly super interesting
thank you so much for this!!
i just finished watching the college decisions video amd apparently this video just came out 20 seconds ago!!
oooooh I wanna hear those essays
Ty this was so helpful!
girl you're totally insane🥲🥲i wanna be like u when i grow up
OMG you go accepted into Princeton! That is my dream school
youre so inspiring

Congratulations! My son took 19 APs, where 5 in 12th grade. All 14 APs in the first 3 years are 5. He's also USAMO qualifier, SAT 1600. GPA 4.7 from a top 40 school in US. He's rejected by all top schools, ended up at Penn State.
those are really good stats, do you happen to know why he didn't get in?
@@bgl30 not the person who commented but A) admissions are a bit of a crapshoot sometimes and B) maybe his essays weren’t as good as they should of been?
@@bgl30 Don't know the reason. They didn't tell the reason
@@viradeus4322 Essays are very subjective.
@@WilmingtonLandlord very true. like i said, admissions are a bit of a crapshoot. sometimes, the admissions officer just has to take a liking to you. or maybe they want someone from your region, and you just get lucky, but also take a spot from a more qualified applicant. who knows
I’m happy for you! Princeton is my dream university but I don’t think I have a much of a high change since I’ll be an international student
I wouldn’t give up hope just yet, you never know :)
i am a international student too c: Im on my last year of hs so i have so much doubts that I will be accepted :(
my dream college is also Princeton
@@suyayccari7281 did u get accepted?
BRO huge relief for me I was expecting 43+ IB plus and least 10 APs all 4 or 5 snd extra IB if I want to get into an Ivy. Well, as an international student I'd probably need higher standards than domestics but now I think I don't need to be that insane. Huge relief :)
Not always true! some universities can actually have more lax requirements for internationals (obviously depends on university though)
@@ternedo6074 ?? Which universities? Unless ur insanely rich, the requirements for international students are way higher then that if domestic students
@@Abdul-bk5fj most Chinese universities are much easier for international students than domestic ones
@@ternedo6074 I would assume that's for high income students, not low ones, otherwise there is literally no merit to taking international students
Are you currently living in China???
Hi, loved this video super helpful! Do you think you could make a video reading your essays. It would reallyyyy help soo much. I am currently struggling :(
Well done! Can you review your essay? Show us some tips. Thanks!
thank youuu
Hey ! I watched your video of your college results with my boyfriend and we just love your reactions... It was very funny ! I love your videos !
Kisses from Paris 😎🗼
aww ty
i got a 1 on both of my aps 💀 both APUSH and AP LANG
Icon
did you submit your APs? also CONGRATS GIRLY UR GONNA ROCK IT
Could you please give a list of the awards you applied to during senior year? I'm slowly realizing I don't have many awards :(
yes please!!!
Bruh she liked the comment but didn't answer 😭 I want to know too!!
Try getting the president’s volunteer service award
@@ManicMaidenASMR how do you get that?
LMFAO why am i watching this when i just got my bachelor's.... congrats my dude!
your video is very interesting, admire you
Omg today I was looking at my gpa (unweighted) was right below a 4.00 and that was only because I got a B in middle school French so hearing you say that is sooo relatable
Thanks for the great video!! Rice is my dream school. What did you write about for your why rice?
hey! just a quick question lol i also got a 1460 on the SAT and wanted to now if you submitted your score for all of the schools you applied to or just some??
can you do an in-depth video of your ECs and awards/honors?
Did you apply as a certain major? I like English but I’m not 100% sure if o want to study something like that in college. I got a 35 on English and reading and a 31 and 32 on the science and math I think for a total of 33. So I clearly am more of the English type that the STEM type and I think that’s my best chance. What did you do?
I’m from the U.K. I honestly really don’t understand how the US school system (and taking different classes etc) and college all works. Seems complicated.
It is. And its biased and weirdZ
People from Asia say the same thing about the UK Lol
I was literally seeing the process to apply for trinity and King's college london and even that too is so complex (btw I am talking abt England, didn't see for Scotland /wales/n. Ireland)
3:22 Don't worry me too (same year). At least I only need to do one more semester to meet proficiency here at UVA
hi jeanie do you have an estimate of when you're gonna reveal your showstopping essays to us? i'd love to see them and i'm sure i'm not the only one! :)
Congrats!! Just curious what you plan to study :)
omg congratsss gurl!! i found your channel and i think i am your 666th subscriber HAHAHAHA
🥺🥰
finally someone w/o 12 5's on aps and a 1600
Congrats🎉🎉. I just watched your reaction video. Did you decide on our college?
I would like to tank you for making me feel bad about myself😭
So happy for you can I ask if you studied any years of your life in us or other English speaking countries to improve your English or did you always studied in South Korea?
No because I messed up all of freshman year (cus during COVID I had no motivation) and I ended the year with a 2.5 so now I’m terrified about college because that’s probably going to affect me (before freshman year I never had a GPA lower than 3.7 and freshman year everything just got ruined).
colleges and universities are so understanding about covid! it changed the lives of so many students. you cannot blame yourself for something that happened in the past, you can only move forward to the future and learn and grow. i believe in you, you can do this 💜
@@ellestevens8588 ty :,)
You are literally me. I’m a sophomore now and I regret it so much.
Me rn, I did better sophomore year as its finishing up but I still feel like I could have done so much better and I feel like I messed up
Hey Jeanie! So did you just end up not doing the class rank section of the common app?
what is your weighted GPA on a scale of? because in my school, a 4.6 weighted would be top 5 easily? sorry if i missed it thanks!
this is amazing congrats!! could you share your essays if comfortable?
I wanted to ask that when you get admissions in 2 and more uni , so do you select one or is it sth else? I actually don't have much idea about it so just asking.
U were way to helpful for me
Okay so I'm a senior this year and because of covid most of the clubs closed down so does anyone know good extracurricular activities to join outside of school that would look good for colleges?
Chess club, any sports/ active clubs, tutoring.
Get involved/found your own awareness/remote volunteering/tech related communities online will be a good move. E.g. a lot of kids in underdeveloped regions/school districts might need online tutoring opportunities.
Internships
Just follow your passion it's less impressive when you do things just for applications
do things that you actually like, because if you aren't interested in chess but do it for the sake of college, colleges won't see that you're passionate about it and it won't be good for you either if you don't like chess
i always feel like im not doing enough with ecs but i literally dont have enough time to do anything else and i like what i do too much to quit so 🤷♂️
i swim but im not that good, and i do a ton of music. voice, band, chorus, piano lessons, and a sick rock group thing. im not really the best or all that amazing in any of those things, i just absolutely love to do them. but that probably wont be enough for these crazy ass schools lmao
What was your intended major/what major did you apply with? Btw Congrats!!
Omg that’s so many extracurriculars
not the 1 dislike ☠️ congrats tho!
They're just jealous
Does anyone also know honors/awards to apply to in the state of Texas or just the U.S in general?
i'm most afraid of the ec's and other activities as an introvert. do you have any advice? i'm still in 9th grade but i think i should be starting to prep for my college app, and idk what i can do abt ec's since i know it's really important
I’m a huge introvert too and it’s gotten to the point where I just won’t participate in clubs and stuff because im so shy but the mindset I have put myself is that I’ll regret it more if I never did it. Having that mindset has helped me big time and got me off my butt and joining all sorts of things. Im about to be a junior so it’s sad I changed a little late but better late than never!!
Ayo, I'm starting a vitamin business and I'm trying to get other high school students to help out with website design, programming, advertising, and clinical study so if you wanna do something for it then it would be a good extracurricular and I'll give ya a fancy job name😀😀😀
@@ashywashy4376 Hey I’m interested, but what exactly is it all about? I see the Google form but I don’t see much information about the organization itself. Is there a link tree or something like that?
International student) my stats are pretty weak, I don't have many awards or extracurricular due to work to help my mom. The whole process is always felt weird and daunting, and caused me a lot of stress and anxiety to get in my dream .college :"/
Which college did you get into?
can you please tell your story, how did you get there?
Ugh I’m a senior this year and this college stuff is so confusing 😭 neither of my parents went to college so I don’t have much guidance but I have a 3.78 unweighted gpa but a 5.1 weighted gpa, I’m so confused I don’t even know if that’s good cause I see people like you with 4.0s but a lower weighted gpa than I have so idk if I’m doing well or if mine is just scaled differently and I suck.. for extracurriculars I don’t have too many besides 3 years of tennis and maybe art club and community service.. I’m looking at these top 50 schools and I honestly have absolutely no idea what chance I have of getting in at all.. I don’t really have a dream school cause idk I just don’t really know too much about each school.. maybe the fact that my parents didn’t go to college will help? Who knows. I’m pretty decent at writing but at my school there isn’t ap only aice and I’m only going to have 8 in total, I would’ve taken more but Covid messed me up tbh.. I’m in the top 10% of my class but yeah.. ig I’ll just have to wait and see
hi! thank you so much for this video, quick q: what's the name of the human rights organization you worked with? thanks again!'
I never did many extracurriculars in high school (UK) as I wasn't very confident or feel like it was important but now that I'm 17 I feel like they are important but now I don't know what to do. We don't have many teams in my college just football, which I don't like and I feel like it's too late because I'm 17 nearly 18 😪
Sameee! I'm an Italian student and schools don't offer ANY extracurriculars and ANY teams at all, I don't know what to do. There is also very, very little enthusiasm in the school environment towards so if I started a club no one would join.
What are you majoring in?
out of curiosity what major did u apply for?
Jeanie, your stats are very similar with my daughter. What majors did you apply to theses colleges?
Princeton was just ranked number 1 in US News and World list.
Hi did u end up submitting all of ur AP scores to college?
yes!
Man US schools confuse me, how is Uni able to look at your marks from middle or elementary school and use that to make decisions. In Canada universities and colleges which are completely different up here, usually look at your high school career specifically your grade 11 and 12 years and make decisions based on that but y’all got it hard so respect for having to put that much effort to get in just one school let alone an Ivey school. I know I’d never get into a big 10 school are anything that’s d1 for sports 😂, I had like a 3.0 gpa start of grade 12 and went back for a victory lap after graduation and left with a 2.96 or close to it, I had a ton of extracurriculars that would have made me stand out for top universities but they were more important to me than my grades were so now I’m stuck in college, or your version of community college I think and my dreams of going to any of my dream schools are dead ex. Western University of Ontario(UWO in London Ontario) or Ole Miss. stay in school kids, try to get the best grades you can but don’t stress yourself out that shit is way too unhealthy for you. Much love ❤️.
S which one will you pick?
I want to see which school you chose & move in and dorm tour and stuff
Question: how did you go from algebra in 9th to pre calculus in 10th??? Pls tell me your secrets. Did you take some sort of summer school program?
she could've skipped a math class in order to take pre calc due to the fact that she's prob hella smart. Like I can't even fathom how one can get a cumulative gpa of a 4.68. Like ain't no way I'm spending 24/7 on school
Nice.
I swear school in america is so complicated. I never had to calculate like that where I'm from to get into university.
Hey, I have a question, where did you go (like websites) in order to apply for those awards and honors? Thanks I’m very happy for you
Ayo, I'm starting a vitamin business and I'm trying to get other high school students to help out with website design, programming, advertising, and clinical study so if you wanna do something for it then it would be a good extracurricular and I'll give ya a fancy job name👍👍👍
@@ashywashy4376 uhh I’m not good with website design and technological stuff but I can help out with other tasks if you wanna so lmk if you feel like it
@@wopiu8299 its no problem! you can fill out the form in my channel description and it has a list of stuff u could do
Wow this is actually realistic
Did u take any honors or regular classes where there were APs offered?
Not me being to young to even get into college watching this like Colombia is my school
Wait, GPA looks at middle school? I didn’t do the best in 6th grade so would that affect my gpa or does it start later in middle school
middle school doesn’t count for most high school GPAs. i took 3 high school-level courses in middle school (spanish 1, honors algebra 1, honors geometry), so the courses will appear on my transcript, but the grade won’t be there and no middle school grades are part of my gpa.
if you’re concerned then i’d say talk to your guidance counselor about it to clear things up.
You state first semester grades only apply for wait list. Is this true though? I thought they looked at first semester senior grades.
Wish I was born in USA or any country in europe couse live in Turkey is really bad but I want to apply some uni in USA but(again)where I live even haven't course for sat In school we just studing and haven't extracurries activety
I have the exact same GPA and its all cuz of my b in Spanish in seventh grade I feel so seen rn
are you in mcps? your courses are worded the exact way as the classes on my transcript lmaooo
did you submit your SAT and ACT or just one? we have nearly identical scores on both haha so I'm trying to decide what to do (my 1500 SAT is a bit higher than my 32 ACT so idk)
woah same stats here. I'm thinking of sending the SAT (1500) because I worked harder for it T-T and it does seem to be higher than the ACT (93% vs 89%)
Nice
That's awesome. I wish I didn't have to work all of the time.
I am an International student but I am gonna do an exchange year so should I choose ap classes that year
I put a couple of candy machines in a few stores around the neighborhood, i fill it with gum balls and other candies and stuff and I actually made a pretty good amount of money from it, can I put that down as an extracurricular or no?
I also buy and sell stuff on eBay can that also be used?
you can say that you did the candy machines and it would look good, but i also think it would look better if you say you donated X amount of profits to a charity. maybe donate a bit of your profits?
same with eBay. i think they’d be good ECs though
@@charleywernli thx a lot. congrats btw
Guys, please help
I'm 23, if I'm going to a college next year will my high school activities and awards be considered? Or i need something from the last 4 years only?
Congratulations!! I'm not too sure, but I would think they would be taken into account
Damn !! Including middle school grades in GPA xD American colleges are really selective, in my country your GPA doesn't even matter, your extracurricular activities also don't matter, there's this one big giant national test which lasts like a week, and that score will determine your entire future lol, and I noticed that you apply to colleges not majors, we actually cant apply to a college then choose a major, there are no ivy colleges because the first 10% will get into med school and engineering in different schools
I’m guessing the middle school grade for Spanish came into play because it was considered a high school course
@Gloria Martinez currently in middle school, I’m pretty sure there are 4 classes you can take in middle that counts as high school classes (at least in my state) and they are: Spanish, health, honor/advanced/Pre-AP algebra 1, and honor/advanced/Pre-AP geometry. grades in those classes also follow the HS grading policy with tests being more weighted. you can also get into junior student honor society which provides EC’s that can be used in college apps. Hope this clears things up!!
Do you live in Japan? Japan is the same as what you describe and honestly it’s crazy to me 😂
Same here, in Peru :(
i go to school in the US and I find it weird how the middle school grade was calculated in it because at pretty much all schools in my area- its only high school grades that count. Not all schools are like this y'know
