“Fantastic. I got rejected from Amherst!” This dude has the calmness of Jesus
this comment is great
Roderick Liu thank I tried
Checkers BiForce he’s so iconic though. It’s like ‘fantastic!...I got rejected from Amherst. Onto the next one!’
You know what, that’s exactly what I said to myself when Amherst rejected me.
tbf, LAC is a waste of time
He acted the same with acceptance and rejection
Alissa F ikr😭
That's because of asian face
Respecc
lol i went back to the ucla part when he was summing up at the end i didn't even notice that he was accepted
> Stoicism
opening all of these on the same day was such a power move
All ivy decisions come out the same day
most of his other schools didn’t 🙃
I know for a fact you opened all your important ones on the same day
It’s Really Emily shut up emily i eded and you know it
Opening all of them in less than 5 minutes is also power move
He's talking about colleges as if they were Pokemon booster packs

🤣🤣🤣🤣

i want to work at a college admission office so i can format the letters to say
“We regret to inform you that you were accepted into our college”
you would scare the shit out of me but i stan
Or you could work at the college admission office and that sent a rejection letter to only receive a letter back that the "I regret to inform you that I reject your rejection letter and will proudly take on acceptance into your college next Fall."
Now give us thousands of dollars for a mediocre education
This man deserves a medal
Was Poppin mates HAHAHAH YE SAME
That sounded more like he accepted ucla instead
schools don't accept him, he accepts the schools
Yes 😂
True lol

All I hear is whirrs
Its aweful.... I can't really hear him.
i thought it was the ac lol
honestly, it scares me lol
This guy ain’t afraid of rejection/failure. He’s gonna be big one day.
he is just as scared as everyone else. just hides it better.
So true
@@meryfedz6941 Rather he just accepts his fear.
Do you think it's because he wasn't applying seriously to most of them since he was "bored"?
@@meryfedz6941 Not everyone is terrified of getting rejected from college.
that might’ve been the most nonchalant reaction to getting accepted to UCLA ever
Sarah Barnett he didn’t seem like he wanted to go there
I don’t think UCLA is a huge deal to most kids outside of Cali. Gets overshadowed by Berkeley
I came I saw I Swam I'm from the bay area btw, lots of my friends this year got in Berk and rejected from LA, which is strange
Roderick Liu not really, UCLA is definitely passing Berkeley. They tied Berkeley this last year on one reputable ranking and beat them on another.
That was such a spoilerrrrrr gaah
I like how he just brushes off the rejections
Adnan A we rlly watch the same videos bruh
especially that first one lmao
I see you everywhere Adnan
@@ccamilodonneys For real!
@@salimgnabode470 me too
Plot twist: those were his safeties
That’s awkward; UCLA accepts you and other not as good colleges waitlist/reject you.
Some colleges will reject you if your application is too good.
Colleges care a lot about their official ranking and their acceptance/admissions ratio. If a lower ranked college accepts an someone who can get into the Ivies, then they won't accept them because the person will most likely not attend. No school wants to be the "safety" option. Their acceptance/admissions ratio would decrease, making them look worse.
Crinky UCLA knows where it’s at
Mike Those are only really amazing applications, if they believe there's any chance that student will attend, they won't reject it because it's too good.
@@jobroray The admissions process is too random, anything can happen
UCLA passed a change to not discriminate (affirmative action) based on race, right? Might be why.
yo this was so frickin authentic lol I love ur nonchalant attitude

*HAHAHA WHAT*
I love how he handles rejection; doesn't take it personally, moves on quickly, and stays positive. He's likely in college now, but once he graduates he'll go far in life.
Lmao this is the best vid I’ve seen for college opening vids
I love how this guy did literally nothing for the thumbnail but still managed to get close to a million views.
Ngl, his intro was pretty relatable, seeing that most people actually don’t have the time nor effort to list all existing colleges/universities on God’s green earth.

@@TeddyWeng194274 Its 14% of the entire student body but 40% on the incoming class. That's not the same thing.
@@ellax325 it's not 40% of the incoming class. That wouldn't make statistical sense. If every incoming class had 40% legacy, then in 4 years the overall student body would also be 40%.

Best acceptance video out there. You are fun to watch. Have fun in the big schools
I needed this healthy dose of reality after all of the videos out there where people celebrate being accepted absolutely everywhere.
Congrats on UCLA, man!
I aspire to be this laid back.

"Yeah okay, so UCLA accepted me.... uhhh next"
I wish I had as much power as this man right here. I want to handle every situation with that much calmness 😂😂

update: i did in fact get into college lol
But he is Asian. If he was black he would have gotten every one.

I commend you for this, and for not being phased- as you know the adequacy of your individuality isn't dependent on titles and labels of particular educational institutions! Hope you're having fun in college now, and happy new year!
the best part of watching this is being from MA and hearing him confidently mispronounce Amherst. Also knowing that I will never be smart enough to nonchalantly react like that to a UCLA acceptance
honestly best college decisions video i have ever seen. i love your personality!
hella chill dude! loved ur attitude :) congrats on ucla!! and we are the same major pol sci and econ :P
This is the best acceptance video I've seen. I appreciate how quick and streamlined everything was. I also love your attitude, and wish you success in whatever you do.

I fw how you carry yourself odee! Keep it up bro
Hey man, this might be tough right now but I am here to tell you that with a 1560/3.5/4.2 you are gonna be a great candidate for an ivy grad school. Don't sweat the small stuff, this round doesn't really matter, trust me & keep grinding for those grades and scores, I promise it will all work out.
Grad school doesn’t care about high school stats lolol
@@jasonhamm3370 of course they don't, but this guy's stats suggest that he's gong to be a very strong college student and do well on the LSAT/MCAT/GRE: there's a strong correlation between all those variables. That's what I meant, I think obviously, but glad to clarify.
I've got the exact same stats as the guy and also got rejected/waitlisted everywhere except for my one safety. Really seems like GPA, regardless of the difficulty of your coursework, is the biggest factor for acceptance at all top universities, which is the complete opposite of what my shitty guidance counselors say.
@@harmanbans All of these factors are necessary but not sufficient for top university admissions. It also helps if you have one extremely finely honed skill rather than being well-rounded. There are just many more "well-rounded" applicants than applicants with comparatively few interests but lots of depth in one area, so the pool of people you're competing against shrinks-it's more complicated than that, but in a nutshell. Also, a lot of what we are seeing these days with UG admissions is really ideologically driven. Universities will accept as many people with really high exam results as they need to preserve their medians, and then it's about demographics and finding people with one or two national or international level skills. But don't despair because that isn't how professional school works. It's much more numbers-driven, so if you are someone who has seen strong exam results thus far, have faith that your hard work will pay off later on. Similarly, consultancies and I-banks will take people with high grades and test scores regardless of where they went to undergrad, because they have figured out that that's what yields the most favorable employee outcomes based on some statistical modeling of employee data. Grad schools have done the same thing, which raises some questions about how prestigious the university you go to needs to be if your goal is to get a job or end up at a top law or medical school.
Samuel Matzner I’ve heard similar things regarding I-bank recruitment which is reassuring since I’m going to be going to a CC and transferring to UCLA, which isn’t the best for recruiting. However I feel like if I can not only get excellent UG grades but also differentiate myself (I own a business as well with strong projected growth) hopefully these college rejections won’t mean much in the long run. I think as the admissions process grows more competitive IB’s, grad schools etc. will begin realizing that they may get a better student from a lower university simply because the process is so competitive for the top ones now.
This speaks to my soul. Thank you for this authenticity & nonchalance

Watching this is therapeutic. So chill. Congrats man!
Bruh I’m in med school, go to the school that is cheapest unless your parents can foot the bill. I have 400k in debt from med school and undergrad and I wish I didn’t go to a prestigious school for undergrad. It doesn’t matter where you go for undergrad (unless you want to do specific research) grad school is what matters. If that state school pays you to go to their school, you better go!!!
This is so true. I went to crappy public undergrad, but a top 10 law school. Ended up in same place as people who killed themselves in high school to go to Ivies and took on huge debt. I was debt free. I've worked in hiring for 15 years now -- I pay no attention to where people went undergrad. Never heard anyone mention it even once in a Hiring Committee meeting. Only thing that matters is where they went to law school. Sad to see the stress that kids put themselves through for something meaningless.

Dang, no fear whatsoever, you went through those quick! Way to handle things so nonchalantly.
The worst thing that has happened to the college admissions process over the past 15-20 years is the common application. It allows people to apply EASILY to 20 schools or more. This drives acceptance rates DOWN at all top tier schools simply because they get thousands more applicants then they did prior to the common application. It also removes responsibility from applicants to FOCUS on the schools they really want to attend. It used to be that you applied to six schools.....two stretch, two in your strike zone, and two safe schools. Life was much easier for everyone.
Btw, to the poster of this video, CARLETON is a very good school, if you can deal with Minnesota weather.
you go "fantastic! got rejected from..." i aspire to have this much confidence
You’re an inspiration to us all
