I've watched this like 4 times lol, applied ED and will get results in about 2 weeks
update: I'm in!
Hey wow congrats! Any tips for people still in high school?
One way is to find a subject you're interested in and do a ton of competitions in that subject. A lot of colleges say it's ok to come in undeclared, but honestly it's to your disadvantage because a lot of undeclared people have stuff like good GPA and test scores but have nothing that makes them stand out. For me I discovered my passion in computer science during 11th grade and spent a ton of time doing every CS competition I could find (USACO and MIT Battlecode mainly) and won a bunch of awards I could put on my applications. I genuinely enjoy compsci so that helped me a ton with finding motivation to keep training.
Congrats! :)
@@LawrenceChenAoPS well fuck me. i was USACO platinum and got rejected ED in 2017. Still, I ended up at a number 1 ranked CS school so I guess I'm fine. Congrats on ur achievement!
YEYYYY!!!
This is actually so well edited, extremely high quality. Makes me want to go to cmu even more. Currently probably too worried sophomore in hs looking forward to college in a few years. Thanks for sharing your perspective
Thanks, man! Best of luck to you!
glad to know im not the only sophmore in highschool who watches college videos
only difference for me is i have several things i want to do all vastly different and i cant make up my mind which one i really wanna do knowing by the time i apply ill want to change my mind
Wow, are you like my clone or something? This is like literally me rn
That is literally me right now
I love how even in a high-pressure environment you keep smiling! You really seem to enjoy what you're studying! Love the video and keep up the good work my man
This is one of the sweetest comments I've gotten. Thanks :)
@@JasonBak anything for the guy who inspires us 😋
I just got my decision letter yesterday and I couldnt believe i got into scs for class of 2023! really thanks for this video!
Congrats! Welcome to the Tartan fam!
The video wasn’t boring at all, you’re so cute ☺️
Haha, thanks!
I’m going to CMU this fall!! Kinda nervous about moving so far away and not knowing anyone…
I am applying for fall 2020 hope i get in! Fingers crossed
Just got admitted ED! So excited. I'm doing this major too :)
Congrats!
Nice video! I'm coming to CMU in this fall for a master degree in SCS. Super excited! Hope I can handle the "scary" work load and still have some time for gym! lol
You definitely will. Congrats on your acceptance!
I just loved the weather the environment the silence and the peace, and loved the way u edited brother, hope u keep making videos like this, hope Ur enjoying, and yes if I would have been there studying, we would have been definetely good friends..
ah man, thanks bro. that's sweet of you!
Interesting! I'm a CMU-Q student!
Just got in 3 days ago and I'm really excited for fall to come!!! Class of 2024 Lessgo!!!!!!!
congrats, homie. hope you rock it :)
this is the best uni vlog i had seen so far! that monologue tho...2:45 , you seem so stressed and sad.
Not really stressed when I made the video. I think it's just because of the acne hahaha
I wanted some information about placements at cmu what is the highest and avg on campus package for masters in cs?
It hard to get addimition in CMU
I got into cmu scs! Thank you so much for this video. Super exited to attend in fall!!
I'm debating about whether to apply for this college.
Just curious, how do you manage to go through your day like that with little sleep?
Hey, I usually sleep 9 hours a night at school. I rarely get less than 7.5 hours of sleep. I actually just stayed up really late that night because I was excited to edit this video. Sorry about the confusion!
It's too hectic.go where you can manage the stress.
The only reason I went here was to see if Carnegie Mellon university was real from the mean girls.
the lil time stamps are awesome!!! how do you know what time all your clips were taken when you edit later?
Thanks! I just checked the meta-data for the clip FCPX.
It's hectic in CMU.
Could you help me with the procedure on how to get into cmu for masters in research programming for international students? Thanks in advance
I seen you at a basketball game today at cmu filming the game with the fired up chips and stuff in it your so cool
Did you apply for early admission to Carnegie?
If I got into CMU for stats/ml but I’m also interested in majoring in cs,
do you know how hard it would be to double major in terms of CMU letting me add the major/workload?
There’s an application process to obtain a double or dual major in CS. It’s fairly competitive, so I would recommend you to have a back-up.
However, a minor involves no application process. I believe you simply need to get a minimum of a C in certain CS classes.
There is A LOT more to college than thinking about additional majors and minors. I encourage you to try not to pigeonhole yourself into focusing on your degree.
I started off as a chem major and was able to do many things that led me to where I am now because of what I pursued outside of class.

This reading helped shape my perspective on college, so I think there's a lot of truth in what he shares. I encourage you read it before you get to CMU to understand another perspective on college. Best of luck! :)
I am a 10th std student from India, and I wish to study there, but I don't know what to study( I mean I don't have any idea about it ) , will my 10th std mark influence my probability of getting over there? And do you have any tip for students like me?
1:27 is that mike erdmann
Deciding between this and Cornell for math. CMU will accept much of my existing college credit to satisfy gen ed requirements, but Cornell won't. On the other hand, Cornell is offering me a research grant. Other reasons make the choice difficult. Your advice?
research grant isn't that much money imo. you're possibly more likely to graduate early at cmu than at cornell with those gen ed requirements waved. thus, save a semester's worth of tution.
also if you go to cmu chances are, i think you'll get a healthy bit of seduction from computer science along the way haha
@@JasonBak Thanks for the feedback. I actually committed to CMU at the end of April. I've gotten myself excited to attend this fall, so I've my fingers crossed that it's safe to do so. :)
@@legendariersgaming mhm, thanks for th update! good luck at cmu :)
there are computers or you can use tor freely ?? ^^
How is Baxter and Spitfire? 😎
Hey! I am coming to CMU in the fall and can't wait!!! Which dorm do you live in?
Also do you have any suggestions on dorms for a freshman? I will be majoring in ECE
Lovely, congrats! I live in West Wing, which is an upperclassmen dorm. I would recommend Mudge > Stever > Morewood> Donner >> everything else
thank you
hey the video is really good. I am planning on going to CMU next fall.Would need some tips. Can we connect via LinkedIn?
Thanks! There are many resources online you can check out. I'm sure you'll be fine! :)
dang does it rain every day there?
No, but it rains quite often.
I'm gonna be blunt here,you're cute!
thanks, yo
good vid dude. may be coming in as a masters student next fall!
Best of luck!
TIA?
Also tryna study Stats ML, what's it like?
I love it. :) Personally, it'd be a bit boring if I wasn't taking extra CS classes.
hahah, your life is fun!!!
exactly tell me if one gets 1500+ in sat is he eligible to apply and will it be easy for him to get admission , in AI department
Back up plan if the key to success fails 2:38 😂😂
I tryed to type for marvel mcu and accidently typed cmu and im here(bad grammar im not from usa)
hahah. shoot. thanks for commenting while you're here :P
Jason Bak no problem have a great day/night
CMU CS MS is dream
Nice vlog! Are you in LINK? :)
Yes ma'am!! Wish I could do more to help out, though!
good
Ahahahah pandas the one library I couldn’t download XD
The best university: "Las Delicias University"
I saw that 'cmu sucks' > o < HAHAHA me as a cmu scs freshman watching this again
I thought I was the only one.....2:21
Hahahah
What editing software do you use?
I use Final Cut Pro X.
I like your shirt
quite a nice shirt
HAHA i watched this video before I got admitted, after I got admitted, and now as a rising sophomore in scs coz apparently a dude posted the screenshot of functional programming in the scs group chat...xD
Hahah, a screencap of the video where Erdmann's teaching?
I saw you this morning at UC😜
Hahaha, feel free to say hi next time! :)
Can anyone tell me about the environment of this university i want literally each and every details
Check out college confidential or come for a visit :)
Especially, the google part in how to let rich women like you hahaha
How is it that all these students posting "A day in the life at xxx college" - wake up with their camera perfectly placed, on, and alarm is ringing at that time, and they wake up like they are actually waking up and not acting?! :-p
It's pretty easy to act like you're waking up when you're already really tired haha
This is so exciting to watch! I'm going to be going to Carnegie Mellon in the Fall :-)!!
Yay, congrats!! Welcome to the Tartan fam. :)
Are you going for Undergraduate ?
SAME!!
The lofi beats are essential, what year are you in?
At the time, I was in my 3rd year!
Wow! This was so cool. IMO, this wasn't boring!
Anyway, It was super awesome to see a day in your life! I've recently become extremely interested in a career in STEM and you've given me more inspiration and motivation!
Btw, if you don't mind me asking, what is the item you're using to wash your face with acne cream called? 😅😮 ... That seems as though it would be extremely useful to have!
Glad this video was able to do that for you. :) I use the Clarisonic Mia with Neutrogena's Oil-Free Acne Wash Redness Soothing Cream Cleanser
Thank you so much for the vid! I’ll be attending CMU Dietrich this fall!!! So excited XDD
Congrats! Welcome to the Tartan fam!
Got accepted at CMU, and I'm visiting the campus this weekend. Super excited! I'm interested in MechE, but do you know anyone with the additional major in robotics? Any insights at all into that program? Thanks for sharing your day.
Lovely! Congrats! Only thing I know about robotics is that the intro class is no joke. I believe on average it takes 20-25 hours of work a week outside of class. Best of luck. :)
I’m going in the fall and this makes me scared of the high pressure environment
idk, cmu's a good school. you're gonna have to work a lot if you want to learn a lot. i actually felt more stressed throughout high school than in college because i had more freedom to take control over my time

Hey it is really nice to watch the video!! I got a program of exchange strudent for CS in CMU next year :D
Your video really helped me a lot for preparation.
btw, is it hard for exchange to apply the dorm in the school :D?
thank you ~~ keep going for great videos!!
Aw thank you. Congrats on your acceptance!
"I have doors scream at me" LMFAOO right??
Nice video!
I have received an admit just a few days back from CMU for dual degree MS in Materials Science and Engineering and Technology Ventures. Paying the tuition is the thing that's worrying me. I hope I'll find a way to fund my masters at CMU!!
Update: I'm going to Duke! :P
Tuition is rather high. Hope you can figure things out! :)
i like the good vibes in your vlog
Wow we have a lot in common
1.my name is Jason
2.im Asian
3.in the future I’m trying to head to CM
Cool! I saw my classmate holding an OH in the video. Lol.
Haha, I showed her the video a few hours ago!
2:29 LOLOL
I’ve got in too and considering housing options. I see you have a private room and bathroom too. Which is the best housing according to u?
Someone in july 2019?
Thanks for the video! Gonna go to CMU next January as a ECE student lol
super great production; i could tell you really put in effort in the details!
So admirable! I have an ordinary SAT score. So sad I can not apply it now. I will do my best to transfer to CMU.
Good luck!
Hiii, really interesting your video. May i ask how is your homework, physical activity and classes organizaed?? Anddd is it more self-managament? Or there are interesting courses??
It's all self-management. You can take a seminar to help you stay on track though. There's help available here if you think it's needed.
hi! idk if ur still replying to comments but I am a junior in highschool rn and I just wanted to ask as a student of cmu, would it be possible for you to tell me what made it stood out when u were applying and some interesting/unique things about it?
My wish to join CMU started with a dream 😆😆 I want to go there fast, but I'm still 15 years old boy
Take your time; enjoy the ride. :)
“Enjoy being alive” 👏👌
Boring people are the best people. :)
I like the neural networks part
How did you get into cmu?
Excited! I got accepted to SCS as an undergrad and will be on campus this fall!
Congrats! Enjoy your time here. :)
No one use Windows
It's a good video
Hello. I am in 11th grade presently. I am planning to write my sat test after completing my 11th grade, in summer(like june,july). Want to join as undergrad in this school. And take robotics.
So mow much should i score to get selected. And how much should be my high school grades. Also if i would like to know th le admission form for undergrads and the requirements and qualifications.
Please if anyone knows, reply. It would be helpfull to me.
Awesome can't wait!!! CMU is going to be FUN!!!
Without a doubt!
really cool and true，Dream school！I will work hard to try ！！！
Good luck!
I’m going to Carnegie for architecture :)
Congrats :)
The camera work is amazing.
thanks!
Dang I have got prob a 3.5 unweighted GPA and only two years left in HS. Is there any hope for me?
Grad school could be very lonely.
Personally, I enjoy my time at CMU. :)
Hello there
I'm a master student in human genetics in Iran.
Do you know any way that i can apply to CMU?
Oh, a Sara Bareilles song! Great taste~
Sara Bareilles is my spirit animal.
you know it's a realistic vlog when you start copy+pasting stack exchange code
❤❤❤❤❤❤
god, SCS looks so damn hard to get in, 205 out of 8733 applicants
Why am I watching this I’m 12
Kelan Harper keep watching. I wish i started watching this crap earlier
Haha, interesting to see what age my audience is!
Take the liberty to ask you a question, how do you apply for CMU?
tbh I started feeling more motivated to not procrastinate and actually do work after watching your vid lmfao p informational (to me at least) and not as boring as you think it is! anyhow, I applied to the school of design/art, do you by any chance (im aware that ur major is completely unrelated) know or heard anything about the students there, the program(s), or even the campus itself?
UPDATE: I got in! now im really torn between cmu and risd lmfao
Yay! Glad it did that for you! CFA is top notch for Design and Art. AFAIK, most of the people in those majors go into a designer position in tech though!
I love Sara Bareilles, keep on singing
New album out got me singing in the shower!🤩
@@JasonBak totally!
@@JasonBak waitlisted rn, hopefully we can sing next together this fall 🤞
