HAHAHAHAHA "ASIAN SAT CUTOFF"
The part when he threw the papers out the window claiming there are too many of them is exactly what im worried about LOL
"We already have enough Indians" :'D
I thought he said "medians", lol
that's literally my biggest fear
"we brought quiche to that shit" hahahah favorite line ever.
Yoooo 0:25 "SAT cut off. GPA cut off" literally scared the shiz out of me
lmao that Asian SAT cutoff though :/
"i wasn't sure about this kid until i got his 27th recommendation"
A+ for sarcasm
This is exactly how i picture colleges looking at my application....
"SAT cutoff, SAT cutoff, Asian SAT cutoff" hahahaha
"thats why I wanna go to - AMHERST?"
"... no yeah that's actually a good school"
As a high school junior beginning to look at colleges, these are my biggest nightmares, and shedding some comedic light on them is what makes this video absolute gold. I'll definitely be watching about fifty more times.
Affirmative action!!!!! LOL I died when I saw that.
The guy from 2:13 looks a lot like Atticus from To Kill a Mockingbird. lol
what about this isn't true??
Got deferred from Harvard today - thanks for this!
I'm crying. This is golden 😂
I got deferred from Georgetown last week, thank you for making me laugh!
"Asian SAT cut-off"
oh... okay.
It's funny because this is how it actually happens. Like the guy before me said, they aren't reading the 30,000 applications (at Princeton) and then deciding. Scores need to be at a minimum threshold to be considered further. I'm a high school senior and I have naviance, so I can see graphs with accepted/rejected students GPA's/SATs, and let me tell you, for Princeton it isn't pretty. I applied for the heck of it with a 95.27 GPA, but the accepted average from my school is 97.48. I know it's a reach, but I've worked towards it for years, so why not try.
+robicano123 95.72 gpa? what scale is that on
+Ryan Kosta 100
+Logan Retamoza K
Here I am with a 94.96 9th/10th grade GPA hoping that my 4th place speaker award at the NYS Debate Championships, rec letters from the two teachers who love me most, sob story personal statement, and inexplicable acceptance to Questbridge College Prep Scholars will impress the admissions committee at an Ivy League university 😂😂😂😂😂 kill me now
lmao ur gpa is high as shit, I worked my absolute a** off and only have a 4.00 gpa at my high school, and here you are with a 95.27 gpa, 91.27 gpa's higher than mine.
yup pretty much
"WHY DONT YOU JUST DRIVE INTO A WAAAAAALL" omfg
rejected from stanford yesterday. this made me feel SO much better.
rejected from stanford a few days ago :D. This too made me feel better.
I think I just died from choking on my saliva, kept watching the video, and died again. xD Seriously, this is amazing!
lol this is hilarious
IT WAS HILARIOUS, THANKS
schools have a quota they have to meet. (race, gender, sexual preference, family income, people with scholarships, etc.) so when a school says they have enough women or indians or middle class persons, they really mean that and the extra people tend to get rejected. not because they aren't good enough or the school doesn't like them, but because the govt says so.
This?
This is absolutely brilliant.
it's been 12 years and this is exactly how we imagine them... still
Looks about right to me.
I'm now afraid of applying 😂😂😂😂
"Asian SAT cutoff"? Love it.
I love this!
"It's goddam beautiful."
1:45 - great intonation!
This video is goddamn beautiful.
It's really bitter when hard working kids get cut off because they're not "unique" enough
outstanding truth
The architecture at almost all Ivy League schools (and therefore WashU) is called "Collegiate Gothic" but it does look a lot like Brookings Hall. No flags tho and we have flags. Also, from this angle, there would be a clockface on the middle span.
Throwing out random extras haha
17 people are from Harvard!
Oh nooo when he threw the papers out the window 😂
This is really how I feel.
ok but i do feel like most of this is true, at least for big top schools like ivys
"we bought quiche for that shit!" "i love quiche..."
"I think it's funny that students are just numbers to us" i died
Can't wait to apply this fall..... FML ;P
Got deferred from Notre Dame last week... Oh well. This makes me feel a little better
This totally makes me want to go to Princeton. Lol
2:14 LOL HE'S EATING THE APPLICATION.
this is god damn beautiful... lol
"Only forth on America's Next Top Model"
Is that a reference to Jane from a few cycles ago? lol
i want to make a forward and reversing gif of the guy eating paper at 2:11.
i was laughing far too hard for my own comfort.
*drives into a wall*
Accurate
Jane goes to Princeton, so yes, absolutely.
wait... that isn't what happens? in all seriousness, just got rejected from princeton today - heartbroken
AFFIRMATIVE ACTIOONNNNNN
AFFIRMATIVE ACTIONNN
unironically true
i like it when they cry.
"we already have enough Indians" hahahaha
"We already have enough Indians" is the part that got me 🤣 (As an Indian myself)
accurate.
@theprincetontiger thanks man, maybe it turns out for the better who knows. Kinda disappointed though that my bracket pick of Princeton over Kentucky didn't garner me any suck up points =P
"i bought quiche for that shit"
We bought quiche for that shit!
HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH
haha, it does feel like this!
pretty much
We brought quiche for that shit.
smiley face
Accepted to Duke!
This is EXACTLY how it happens :S
accurate....
go to any college website (specifically ivy leagues) and take a look at their admission statistics and what they have to say about minority groups. also take a look at forums and discussions. and let me clear this up for you, this is in no way an insult to hispanics or african americans but simply how the admission process works.
I didn't use to think that was how the process goes... *goes to cry* I'M GONNA BE A FAILURE!!!! U.U
I would like to know what admission officer said something like that. Please since you claim to have done some research, tell me.
I did too, but I didn't make it in.. :'( What news did you hear? What major are you wanting to go for?
wheres the lie
@theprincetontiger prolly school craft
"we already have enough indians" well, good thing i didnt apply so that i saved myself one rejection lmao
"We already have enough Indians" haha
Bless
can you hear them cry?
You lowkey right tho a h h h
Wait, you mean to tell me this is not how the admission process goes?
anyone know the song playing in the background?
more like "perfect SAT? perfect GPA? Nope!"
Soo trueee
lol that's so funny
lmao@!@!
You mean to tell me this isn’t what actually happens??
To be honest tho I wouldn’t be that upset if the admission officer ate my paper because of how frustrated he is. I procrastinated for TWO MONTHS and I have yet to write THREE ESSAYS and yet I am here. Me being an international student is not helping my case
I've just made a video on my channel about dealing with rejection, I hope it can help some of you!
Hey, what is the video called? I can’t find it on your channel.
Lol, we already have too many Indians !! Ahahaha
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
haha so true.
lol noooooooooooooo
HAhahahaha
@wesleytocool Adding not an insult was not to justify my opinion but simply to state a truth since you are obviously taking this offensively. As well I don't know where you saw someone say that minorities get in with only a 2000 score because I certainly did not but colleges do certainly lower standards for minorities because the admission process weighs the applicants ethnicity quite heavily.
Wait.. if this ISN'T what happens then... Sweet baby Jesus, what DOES happen?! O.o
Hey man, i bet you're a beast student anyway. you don't need an ivy league to be successful!
