- If you only watch one of the interview on this channel, watch this one. In this video, I had the privilege of chatting with Brandon Zamudio, a first-generation low-income student from Miami, FL. Together, we discuss battling impostor syndrome, the best and worst parts about Yale University, and how he got in by going absolutely beast-mode during his junior year. Enjoy!

@@elevatedschooli don't
What do you mean by beast mode in junior year I don't see the timestamp for it, also what was his gpa from freshman to junior year then also senior year
Hello! Im Brandon from the video and to answer your questions: my gpa was on a 4.0 scale so I ended with a 3.98 and my weighted gpa which was on a 6.0 scale was 5.4 which was very high because of the many IB and AP classes I took.
