you seem like the type of girl to remind the teacher that there is homework due
That is a social taboo! I would never.
Except that one time...
YesReneau lol
+YesReneau I love you
+YesReneau subcroooobing
Proud Stanford-reject here! And, well, long story short: rejected from Stanford, accepted to Yale. Booyah.
+Kaya D Rejected by Stanford, accepted by McDonald's. BOOYAH!
+Kaya D ANNNND before you make a cheap dig at McDonald's, it has lesser acceptance rate than Harvard, soo ...
Is valedictorian determined by gpa from senior year or from your gpa from all years of high school?
K D Congrats 🎊 I wish i was you I'm 14 so hopefully I work hard to get into a good college one day...
Trevor House all years and you're expected to take top classes, be on student council, etc.
How to make college admissions more fun: Apply to a college with a 100% acceptance rate and write "You want a personal statement? I lost my virginity to a vacuum cleaner!" When the admission rate drops to 99%, congratulate yourself. You made a difference.
Chiru Bear
LMAO IM DYING. YOURE A GENIUS.
Chiru Bear you literally write this same comment on every youtube video
the black girl joke wasn't funny, idc if she's 1/4 black it wouldn't be funny if anyone said it. it was offensive and promotes a negative stereotype. yes there are black girls and boys that go to 'bad' schools and live in 'bad' neighborhoods but that's gonna happen to anyone, anywhere.
Triggered.
Lmao, calm down.
Iryli ilyrl i am calm lmao, i was just retaliating for any future comments beforehand
amaya johnson thank youuu
People like you are the reason why this world is so full of sensitive, whiny little bitches. Get a grip.
All of these people commenting rude things to her like "Stanford made the right decision" probably can't even get into any ivy or ivy caliber school.. Why are you being so hateful towards someone on the internet that you do not know?
lol but like 3 of my community college friends here in California made it to Yale Princeton and they are savage AF.... yeah they made it in but their savageness took over and regretted their own dream!!!! 😂😂 now they are marijuana cultivars making almost 1 mil a year 😂 what a plot twist 💯
Those comments are all just jokes pointing at her humor...I can see why...
They can’t even get into a community college a
her humor is so awkward
I love her
+helen1MM that voice is so deep too.
I think her humor is fine. -_- i mean well atleast better than mine
she's a dork. but a cute one!
+helen1MM She really is a dork, but a really cute one
I watched this video last summer, and now I'm heading to Stanford!
Rejected from Harvard, accepted to Stanford for me lol
Thanks for the advice! :)
What extracurriculars you had?
Been four years, hows everything now?
I legitimately thought that "wand" was some weird sex toy..... lol
same!!!! :O
Aiden Attenborough 😂😂😂
Aiden Attenborough you were not the only one. 😆😂
Wait, isn't it a sex toy?
Same!!
Is it possible that she is nuts and didn't actually go to Harvard but she thinks she did?
Alex Harmen she actually did got into Harvard
I know. I was making a joke.
Oh,
ahah lol
why is your name saying bye to me
My friend got rejected from Stanford and accepted at Harvard and what he did was send his acceptance letter with a giant FUCK YOU! in red letters on it back to Stanford.
That was a kind of rude thing to do...Stanford could probably tell he wasn't a good person.
Senor Tree Hey he is one of the best guy's I know, he just found it weird and irritating that the school with the higher acceptance rate that is 3 spots lower on US News' college rankings didn't accept him but the statistically tougher school to get into did. He does regret doing it but at the time he was a bit angry because as much as he liked Harvard he really wanted to study on the west coast, on a beautiful campus with sports teams that don't suck ass. (We live in Mass and know the Harvard Campus pretty well, so it isn't much of an experience)
Imagine what would have happened had he sent that to Harvard by mistake!!!!!
Sriam vasumathy surendran I know! But he really regrets sending that to Stanford and even wants to apologize for it. Especially because he has the grades and backround at Harvard to admitted into top level Grad programs like Stanford and if it comes down to him and someone of equal caliber they probably ( I can almost guarantee) still remember that little letter from 3 years ago and will admit the other kid.
lol if he applied to stanford they'd probably just mail that letter back to him and write "karma" on it.
YOU REMIND ME OF MILEY CYRUS WHEN SHE WAS IN HANNAH MONTANA (like her character)
I agree!!!
+Sarah Holland Hannah Montana Endesa yo going to Stanford
her voice too lol
her humor is almost cringe worthy but i agree with her takeaway :)
I felt my IQ go down just watching this video. Obviously she is highly intelligent in reality due to her Harvard acceptance, but presenting herself like this is certainly not showing the world that.
+S Paleshi Clever people don't need to bother showing people that they are.
"Great men don't brag, they persuade others to not do so for them" - Tolu Ojo
+S Paleshi Well since she's extremely smart she probably doesn't have the same social skills normal people have, oh well intelligence makes up for it.
+Zoe K haha
Not all intelligent people have to act a certain way. Someone can have a quirky personality and still be verry intelligent.
Funny, smart, and pretty?! Slow it down girl!
Not funny
o0Lazer0o I'm a comedian, I get to say who's funny bruh
+ChaoticMatters You must be a shitty comedian then. This video needs to be a in cringe compilation.
ChaoticMatters horrible wit, self-entitled ego, and 100 pounds of make-up? Yeah I'm sure everyone at Harvard cant stand people like her too
ChaoticMatters "comedian" lol you thought you were a comedian 😂😂😂
I now totally understand that Stanford rejected you.
agreed
lol xD
Axel Werner omg that's funny
Axel Werner look we can't all be stars at ITT tech like you axel
Seriously, your grammar sucks. You probably should've listened in your third grade literacy class.
I feel relax, smile, a little happy when i saw your videos, you're intelligent girl, you'll success!
Thank u for making this video. As an incoming junior in high school, I see this as inspiration to improve and try my hardest in school. Computer science is a tough major to get into, especially in places like Stanford or Berkeley, but I will try regardless. Thank you.
Whoa, you've got a very outgoing and bubbly personality. I wasn't expecting that when I opened the video.
Nobody ever sees it coming, and then WHAM! Hits 'em like the bus hit Regina George.

omg yessssssss
omg!!!! you are awesome!!!! I LOVE YOU ALREADY!
Stanford is way tougher to get into than all the Ivy League schools. I was reading the acceptance rate percentiles yesterday.
+Skin Care Discussions once you are in the top 10 its all the same thing. The same caliber of students apply to all of them and some get lucky some don't. The reason she was rejected was not b/c she wasn't qualified.
+Bipul Khadka Dude I am at Harvard's Extension for us continuing adult professionals. Do you know how hard it is to get into Stanford. I've tried and read. Are you Ivy League too
Skin Care Discussions Good for you. I'm just saying from experience that there are many students that have been rejected form Ivies and gone to Stanford. All of their acceptance rates are so low there is statistical way that one school can be tougher than the other The slight difference in acceptance rates are due to many factors: applicants, class size, etc.
+Bipul Please check the statistics okay? I am all research and facts. Never opinions. Good day to you sir (Tilts cap).
+Bipul Khadka Also, please note that Stanford is not Ivy League. It stands out and represents a better name. I am sorry Harvard and love you guys! But I remember when I was rejected.
I LOVE THAT ARTWORK IN THE BACK
You probably got rejected not because of academic performance (or anything else), but because they had already accepted as many people as they could that year. It happens every year, at every school, to people everywhere.
She applied early admission which means she was one of the first thousand or so to apply. But Stanford is UNBELIEVABLY difficult to get into.
That's weird because she applied really early but I agree with you
the perfect stanford applicants: superman and wonder woman.
You're so fantastic, Taylor. You keep on doing you--!
This is an awesome video. Cheered me up after early decision letters so thank you!
It's harder to get into Stanford.
sk 1278 False, its harder to get into Harvard
LaxKyleBall not its actually just a statistical fact. stanford's acceptance rate is lower.
LaxKyleBall Stanford is harder to get into do your research
I thought Harvard was better than Stanford
Only on Tuesdays (and Mondays, and...)
lol ok?
Stanford is the hardest school to get into.
+sk 1278 no Yale is
+LT.midnight No, it's stanford.
Couldn't stop watching it. Its just too nice watching u
You are just awesome. A lot to take. Bang on!
I like you. You made me smile from how funny you are and motivated me. Thank You
Thank you! I appreciate the love :)

thanks for this. I'm at such a low point in my university career ever since failing premed and confidence is so hard to get back. this was somewhat helpful.
Glad I could (somewhat) help!
wow that was really nice of you to have boosted our esteems in the end ! You go girl ! lol could you also make a video on how your prepared for ur SAT OR ACT etc tests that you had taken before applying to Harvard of Stanford ? :)
I cant wait to see another videooooo !!!!!!
love the energy.
Why thank you :)
This video is so motivational. Thanks for sharing.
I will be applying to both schools for law school.
Glad you liked it! Good luck in the application process!!
Thanks!
It all boils down to one line " you spent a ten grand on your education which you could have got with $1.5 of late charges at the library".
OMG YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!
This made me really feel better. I'm no where in the same boat as you, but it made me realize that I can accomplish what I want even if it's not exactly how I pictured. Thanks!
Wait, your comment is actually perfect. You just made my day--this is exactly what I was trying to convey to people.
What's up with all the hate comments though lol
Some men just want to watch the world burn. Quoth the butler.
+YesReneau I agree the new generation has become such a hostilitized,ignorant conformed society. Too many people overvalue what they are not and undervalue who they are God bless you and hopefully you someday make a true impact 😊
+YesReneau ps I love your eyes, your positive vibe &your beauty is definitely uncomparable and divine 😍
omg what is wrong with all these mean people in comments/ i can suppose they are jealouse dont pay attention to them cuz you are really cool interesting and funny)
That's awesome!!! Congrats!!! 👏
Thanks!!
To be honest, I started watching your videos today. Don't know why people are hating on your videos so much. I am subscribing right now. Happy you got into Harvard. You have a fine personality, by the way. Stay happy and ignore the haters. Haters gonna hate. Let them bark. You rock! :D
I used to think Stanford only had super-humans going there until one night, many years ago, I was watching Nightline and the issue being "explored" was how the guest on the show had kept flunking the exam to become a superintendent for a high school system in California, even though he'd graduated from Stanford. Since then I try to keep in mind that we're all just human beings at the end of the day and that it's a mistake to go around brushing one person as not being much while others should be bowed down to on account of somehow being associated with something regarded by many as prestige. Stanford is wonderful, but there are in fact many wonderful universities loaded with folks that are talented and know a lot of things that can help the human condition. Glad the pretty and smart young lady in the vid has such a bright future in front of her, btw.:-)
I'd ask you to say hello to Rory Gilmore, but she ended up going to Yale.
You made my day better ! thank you !
And YOU made mine better, thanks!
YesReneau May I ask how you did to get accepted into Harvard ? I mean do you have some tips or advices on how to actually get in ? Thanks in advance !
you are such a charismatic person...subscribed :)
Ok the black woman joke was too far but your other jokes are funny though
she's actually part black (1/4 i think)
I get that she's black but the whole changing her voice and adding hand gestures can be seen as offensive
it's a joke
Was wondering if you could make a draw my life video and if there were any hurdles in your grades/ academic struggles you faced.
You are so awesome! I love your videos
Your humor gets me 🙂
This video made me cringe so so so so so so so soooooooooooo many times jeeeeeez
how?
Nasim Fall tragic
Nasim Fall Your comment made me cringe.
Yo taylor, congrats on the 355k views. Ur gonna be a hit !!!
I always love your comments :) They give me such a boost!
YesReneau Awww that just gave me a boost LOL !!!! GO TAYLOR !!!!!! Take care :)
thanks for uploading your videos i am 3rd year medical student in china.. i learn many things from you i mean in your video ..thanks keep uploading
I like your enthusiasm
Hey I've been subscribed to your channel for a while now and my dream is to go to an Ivy League school. I was visiting Harvard last week and I saw you walking by Harvard yard with a hat on and I got so excited. I wanted to talk to you but you were talking to someone else. I never expected to see you since Harvard has a lot of people. Btw, Harvard is so beautiful!!
YesReneau Congratulations. I have no idea how I stumbled upon this video. I love the positivity you bring to the situation... It is a true sign of your character.
I remember in 2000-2001 when I applied to schools, the anxiety of it all can be tough. I was discouraged when I got rejected by U Pitt, as I wanted to go to school with my best friend. Only, later, I got accepted into Maryland. Weird. Nevertheless, I went for a semester, then joined the Army. Knocked out some college in the Army, and finally got my degree in 2011 from UNLV. I am working on my masters now...
I love underdog stories as well.
I was 1 of 5 boys, and the only one on my fathers side, to attend/graduate with a Bachelors. I'll be the first in my family to have a Graduate Degree!
This isn't about me though, it's about you. Congratulations! I wish you the best in your endeavors, and please remain such a positive person... the world needs more of that!
I love this video! Congrats on getting into Harvard!
i love your personality! I hope its all working out for you!
I really dont know why people are always hating and fighting in the comment section.Well it doesnt pay at all plus this girl is really nice and awesome.Live Laugh Love;)
Ahh the triple L, the greatest weapon of them all (live, laugh, love). Disarming people with kindness, classic!
+YesReneau oh wow yeah well two wrongs dont make a right dear;)
+Zainab Yusuf Lol, I was just agreeing with you (and trying to write something non-generic)!
you have a charming personality
Thank you so much for this!! I am so nervous and stressed about sending my applications to my dream school, but this made me feel so much better and a lot more confidant!!! you're the best!
JessBeWild Yayayay! Glad I could help! Best of luck with applications, and enjoy your last year of high school :)
Whoa, you posted this on my birthday! I guess my birthday brings good news to many people ;)
Its harder to get into Stanford than Harvard, why is this such a big deal
Stanford's acceptance rate in 2012 6.6%
Harvard's... 5.9%
(google it)
Well so much for that reasoning.
show me the 2014 stats
theYO2154 Doesn't matter, this girl was accepted in 2012 so those are the only stats you need in her situation. Considering you were saying "why is this such a big deal" in her case it is, she got accepted into the more difficult school to get into at the time.
But if you really must know, Harvard's remains at 5.9% and Stanford's is 5.1% which is there lowest EVER. So yes, as of 2014 Stanford is more difficult.
But that being said, giving a single year isn't a justifiable statistic. You would need averages of every year post the 2400 score SAT change which I can't find but am willing to guarantee Harvard's is lower. From doing a little research, Harvard has claimed the top spot for lowest admissions rate through most of the 80s, 90s and 00s and Stanford has only beat them out an small number times (2 in the past two years though, 13' and 14')
That also being said the method of admission is slightly different, Harvard is more willing to deny perfect academic students with crap backgrounds but Stanford is less willing to admit people of fantastic backgrounds, Extracurriculars, Essays etc. with 3.95 GPAs or a 790 on SAT Math or some SAT II because it wasn't a 4.0 or an 800. Harvard is much more holistic which in this day and age makes the acceptance rate go up while Stanford is more looking fore perfect specimens at this point.
Quick side note though Stanford's Med and Law programs notoriously much lower acceptance rates than Harvard's which is much more impressive to me. Stanford Law is about 10% to Harvard's 16% and their med is 3% to Harvard's 4%.
For her case, you can't just evaluate the overall acceptance rates for each school. She must have applied early decision for Stanford 2012 and regular decision for Harvard 2012. Very different percentages, interpret how you will. Different college admission officers will simply see different qualities in different people, so their decisions will not necessarily follow a perfect trend or mathematical relationship. Regardless, congrats to her and all those pursuing their dream or non-dream schools.
Nobody a school's acceptance rate has more to do with how many and what type of people apply than how difficult it is to be the type of person accepted at that school. Many schools send recruiters across the country to encourage people to apply that they know are certain rejects just to lower their reported acceptance rate, and many elite schools (such as Harvard or Stanford) will attract hail-mary applications that slightly lower-ranked schools do not. You're welcome for all these words about acceptance rates that you didn't ask for.
HAHAH, this was fabulous. I'm going to the Harvard this June, can't wait! :D
Haha thank you! Oh my gosh you're going to have so much fun (plus it'll be soooo nice outside)!
YesReneau Yes! It'll be a lovely escape from New Zealand's disgustingly brutal winters, haha!
OMG finally someone agrees with me!! I have been believing in a quote for a long time, and I thought of it myself . "Everything happens for a reason ." 👏🏻👏🏻 preach!!
ahaha Loved it ! need the humor and motivation for my dream job luck on Harvard!
Haha thanks! Good luck with your dream job!
Super late, but congrats on your acceptance! (P.s i love your Harry Potter references😉)
your humor's hilarious
I actually found you commenting on Derek Halpern's video and just 2 mins in, I subscribed. Good job!
LivingLifeAsaNYCgirl Yayay new subscriber! So glad you liked the video!!
found it enjoyable to listen to your story! haha still procrastinating when a few days till my ib exam starts
Good, I'm glad! And yuck! I never did an IB, but I heard they were pretty brutal.
I am an Indian and Harvard and Stanford have always been two dream places for me..... ;-) I m pursuing an undergrads degree on Economics. I must not hide the truth that ur video came as an great inspiration to me and from today I start working harder to be able to at least apply at Harvard. Thnx a lot.....
Akash Patra Glad I could help in some way!! Good luck with your studies and applications!!
I need to know if you got into either or both of em. Keep me updated, stranger. Thanks. xD
@akashpatra245 Hi! Did it work out?
I absolutely adore you! You seem like such a sweet and level headed girl! Good luck to you with whatever you decide! I enjoy watching your videos and hope you make more!
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it :) I'll definitely make more videos! (Just have to get through finals period first, lol)
If you don't mind me asking, what were all the colleges you applied to? Did you get in? Also what was your final GPA and SAT/ACT/ SAT 2 scores? Hope you will answer please don't feel pressured to! Thanks!
it does happen for a reason - we get to watch this video right now and get inspired, thx
Your grades were perfect, they missed out. But Harvard is great too! I have just started watching your videos but they are so motivational showing that anything is possible.
Lmao everyone needs to stop hating, she is a lovely, smart and awkwardly funny :) we need more girls like her tbh
Same! Rejected from Stanford, Accepted to Harvard
Duuuuuude you're like my hero now XD thank you so much for uploading this and making my life :D
Dawww thank you so much! Comments like this make MY life :)
Thanks for posting this video it'll make me feel better when I get rejected from Stanford.
"Well, I suppose if you must attend school on the west coast..." (Dr. Frasier Crane, in reference to Stanford)
I like the sound of your voice! :'D
Why thank ya :) Much appreciated
MrBomb72 Me too
so inspiring and funny! great job!
Daww thank you! I appreciate it :)
I'm a highschool sophomore who just got motivated to do what I can in the years i have to apply and make it to either Harvard or Stanford! Thank you so much and all your other videos are helping me realize what I must do. Which is first off to stop being lazy and work the best I could for my goal!
Stanford is number 2 so you only dropped 1 placing in global university rankings... That's pretty cool. I got rejected from Dalhousie and got into McGill which is over 200 placings :)
+A. G-E Stanford is #4 and Harvard is #2 (:
+Sarah Hz Massachusetts institute of Technology
***** Princeton
Nice. Stanford is my number 1 on my list then UCLA, UC Berkeley, UC Irvine, and UC Chico. :)
Im attending a community college and when I finish then bam fill up applications and hopefully get accepted to any and then choose which one. :D
Community college? No chance
^ brah junior college is a lot cheaper and plus, the requirements for transfer students is a lot better than high school to UC.
+Jim Vader Don't worry about he said, UC schools have a pretty significant transfer rate. All good schools
Actually there are many applicants from community college that got accepted into Ivy League schools. Don't listen to what the other guy said. Just make sure you do really well in your community college and then you can transfer easily
*CSU Chico
you are awesome!
Sooo much positivity and so much energy!
I like you! :)
Really appreciate it! Thank you :)
+YesReneau Thank U for spreading positivity! :)
keep doing that!
Fantastic, very humor Motivational Video..Thanks for sharing..!
//* i first initially heard you saying "I am Yes or no", then i realized your name is Reneau and added Yes to it prior...lol, that's great..!
Haha you are so adorable and funny, keep doing what you're doing.
Thank you, I really appreciate it :)
YesReneau Your response was cliche yet touching,
Hilarious that people judge their self-worth by the school they get accepted to.
Yeah it's unfortunate, there are so many other factors that make people great.
Wow! This is an amazing life story. Congratulations!
And this video is a year old... Late Congratulations! lol
Still appreciated! Thank you!
Wow I have seen two videos so far and I am already subscribed!!!! Great job!! I feel like I should have perfect grammar!!!😂😂😂
