Well, I for sure was unlucky this year, but I wish the future US aspirants all the very best!
Hey guys! Hope you're doing well. I'm gonna be uploading some abroad eduction related content like application reviews, interviewing people who got into some great universities abroad, reviewing applications and also some videos about how to crack particular sections of standardized tests. Is that something you guys will be interested in watching?
Bruv let me tell you it's not the end of the world even though it may feel like it. I too had applied to 15+ colleges and got rejected by every single one of them. The worst part is I took a drop year and applied again only to get no different results. I want you to know that a rejection (or an acceptance as a matter of fact) in no way defines you, you are way more than that. This took me a bit late to realize and due to these rejections I believe I got into quite the depression which to date I'm trying to overcome.
When you've spent every minute of 2-3 years of your life working towards a goal that in the end, you couldn't achieve (and without proper reasoning), you feel so devastated. It doesn't hit you immediately cause it's not a physical thing, that you can touch or feel. It comes to you slowly and makes you miserable (well at least in my case lol.) But remember this is the first rejection of your life, and that it won't be the last. Throughout high school, we're made to believe that we can achieve whatever we want in life (and that is absolutely true), but they forget to mention that there will be times when we can't. We have to know that it is part of the process to success.
So, more power to you for applying to US unis when kids are stuck in the rat race to prestigious Indian colleges. Very few know how demanding and how difficult the whole process is.
Good luck with your future endeavors! Know that there are colleges that'll absolutely love to have you and you can achieve every single thing in life that you would've had you gone to any prestigious US school.
Damn...💀
this is giving me some true fear things cuz im applying for colleges too this year and im really.. scared or idk how to describe this feeling
Damn that’s some essay right there..
the indians who get into ivy leagues for undergraduate most probably have an international olympiad medal at least, have top ranks on kvpy, jee exams etc
then for grad school, it will be those who are either rich or those who finished their undergrads from iits, nits etc
What did u do after taking a gap year and getting rejected by US schools once again?
Stumbled upon this video today and it took me back to EXACTLY a year ago when I opened my college decisions. I applied to 20-odd schools (including all Ivies barring Columbia) and ended up getting rejected from most of those. Those rejections hit hard and with each passing day, my hopes of getting into a good school dwindled. Until one day, I received a lucky acceptance in the mail that turned my life around completely. Keep your head up, Omkar. It takes a champ to gulp down rejections but know this, good things are on the way. Best of luck for the days to come!
Dude, more power to you !! I think you did what most of the folks out there can't even imagine doing. After facing all the rejections you maintained your composure as well. Hats off! I'm a prospective master's student, and I'm planning for fall 2023, let's see what happens. Stay strong ✌✌
I’m so proud of you! Very few people can hold their head up high even in the face of such rejection. You are truly an extraordinary individual. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
bruv theres no way you're getting into an ivy with sat score less than 1500 unless your profile is strong.
TRUEEEEE
exactly he was a little too cocky on that front
+ no ECs 😭
I absolutely love how you handled those rejections..
Keep it up brave man!
Hey man still chilled out and stay top always
I'm glad you changed your hairstyle man
Hopefully you're making the best out of these 4 years, start up or summat do something crazy, you're a solid guy now toughened after rejections, you can face anything.
And screw high schools they suck :p
Man I know my comment will probably not make it any easier for you, but please just know that you are not alone! I've been there too and currently doing it all over again. What I've learned from all of this is that fin aid is what makes is so unbearable, not that there is something "wrong" with you or your application. The fact that you had figured out the process on your own, didn't have any examples of success in such things in your close community but still pushed through it is what matters. People go crazy about top schools because of the people they meet there, however, look, you have just connected with hundreds of not any less smart than ivy bros kids! You will be successful in whatever you choose to do
i appreciate your bravery for posting this!
Thanks for watching!

It takes strong guts to upload rejection video but you really have those. You are really strong man and an inspiration for many. All the best for your future. ✌️🔥💫🙌👍😇
Thank you for posting this video Omkar. The US university entrance chances are crazy, so do not get discouraged. I believe that you will do good anywhere you decide to go whether in India or in the US in the future.
Best of luck to you.
Thank you, I will
Can't blame highschools for the decisions you take. Only if you had a plan to move to the US after your 12th, you should've graduated from a highschool that had the resources to place students abroad.
When with a score of 1380 you expect to get into Ivy League colleges wanting scores ranging from 1480-1580, I can't understand why wouldn't you think for your back up and regret later.
Didn't mean to be offensive in anyway mate.
Regardless very informative video. Thanks for making many Indian and International students aware how difficult it is to get 100% financial aid in the States.
Keep hustling. Be positive. Hope you have a great year ahead!
at least he had the nerve to apply his sat score is above average anyway bcoz he applied for 100% financial aid they turned him down maybe or maybe bcoz of not going into an accredited school its extremely important to go into an accredited school i guess he went to a goverment schhool bcoz most of the private catholic schools usually have a web page
btw school in india that gives students chance for abroad are very very low and those schools are extremely expensive just 1 year itself will be above 50 lakhs/5 million indian rupees
@@ammericanochuachuaaa Unfortunately, his SAT scores are not above average at all. For each of the universities he applied to, its below the 25th percentile. Anyone with a score below 1450 goes test optional to those institutions.
Well frankly as an international student , even a 1600 SAT score doesn't guarantee ivy league if you're applying for 100% aid . You do stand a chance if you have excellent extracurricular achievements
Exactly, or he could have applied to some safeties.... 1380 is tooooo low for Ivy leagues unless you've some exceptional ECs and Essays.
i agree , a sat in this range is like sabotaging your own chances . And on top of it killer extracurriculars are vital , and he can’t just expect to get in with like a below average score these colleges follow a very holistic process perhaps all applicants that do end up getting aid have run and worked their asses off working pillar to post . and he wasted his ed2 on pomona it’s like way too competitive- having nerves is silly because applying harvard and Yale is silly and a waste of time when you know your chances , i mean man coudve just scrolled a profile on Linkein ! and what does the school even have to do - you have your class X board result to back shit and at the end of day you can tell teaches about LOR and filling common app , if you have the potential - you get in !
So proud of you man! Never give up no matter what!
You are very courageous...
All the best you will definitely make it👍
I got really disappointed too, but ended up going to a college that changed my life. And to be fair, for international students, SAT score isn't everything, but Ivy generally look for 1500+. If not a score like that, should have strong justification in the rest of your applications why it wasn't so. Keep pushing man, college is just a tool, ultimately all the power is in your hands
Hi bro, keep your head up. I’m sure your application was great, but the way the American system works is brutal. It is harder to get accepted as an international student applying for financial aid. So a 100% financial aid request was most likely what made them turn you down. Don’t let these rejections define your worth, it’s more of the system at this point
Well said. Thank you
He's also Indian which screws his chances
@@danielm17 Really. Why though
@@danielm17 he’s an international student. So it’s harder to get in, nothing to do with race or country of origin.
Abey don’t encourage this failure
1380 and applying to all the colleges listed is a waste of your time and your parent’s money. It is as simple as that.
Please guys don’t repeat this.
All the best for your future endeavours! Thank you for posting this video, as we only get to see acceptance videos which do not show the complete reality of admissions to these ultra-selective universities...
its okay kid you will make it for sure. best of luck for the future applications i hope you get harvard next time good luck!!
Hi bro ,i also want to apply to us for my undergrad. Can u please help me with my ec's and where did u go for sat coaching or which helped you with your application.
Omkar, I am extremely impressed at your courage, confidence and composure throughout the whole process. Don't worry about these rejection letters, you have something which no college can offer you- Belief in yourself. You set high goals for yourself, and approach them with a positive and optimistic attitude. You are not afraid of challenges, and despite not having the best of resources around you, you put in your best and hope for the best. Trust me, this is what life takes. As someone who daily struggles to believe in herself, your personality leaves a huge impression on me. I wish I had half the confidence you do. So what if you didn't get into these colleges? This positive and hard working nature of yours will take you very far in life. All the best, and my best wishes to souls like you
That was the best thing I read this week. You are a very positive person. I think people would be really lucky to have you around because of your positivity and also you'd be a fool to think of yourself as a less confident person. I think the thing you are looking for is an opportunity to know that you're worth something but believe me the quality you're looking for is already in you. All the best!
P.s: I actually laughed very hard after getting rejected from the last college which was Stanford. And I also think we should follow each other on instagram ( I know I shouldn't be saying this in comments haha)
i love how ur family supports u so much.
U can do this !! I suggest tame amaku bhi inspire kara please
Honestly I felt motivated when you still applied for Ivys despite of the highschool catastrophe you had because I too was rejected by DU, JNU and also BHU this year despite scoring good but I'm still going for SAT. I didn't take a gap year tho but I really want to go to the top colleges ( at least for my masters or maybe PhD too).
It really sucks to be a 'better than average' but still not getting into your dream college.
better than average in your country might not necessarily be that in the USA, unless you are US citizen. Thats the sad truth. It frustrates and disappoints me too.
Bro is expecting 100% scholarship with 1380 😭
My worst fear for 20 mins straight
No worries Omkar you will do Great : )
Here's to success in your future!
The schools in US are ultimately private. Applying for 100% need would anyways have reduced your chances of getting in. Also you should have applied test optional 1380 in SAT is not satisfactory for the top schools.
Hey man I like how you're positive throughout the video. All the colleges you applied were very competitive, I actually stay in PA and it's very hard for kids in America to get into top tier schools as everyone has very high achieved stats. I also got rejected from UPenn, but it's not the end of the world. Loved your video by the way, just keep grinding.🔥🔥
please make a video on your academics and extracurriculars!
I know I'm commenting sort of late but I want to let you know that it isn't the end. Keep grinding and you will end up somewhere. Many international applicants aren't aware of how competitive admissions are in the U.S. and the fact that you are an international student just makes it exponentially harder. In hindsight, you should have definitely applied to lower tier schools considering your stats and your request for 100% financial aid but now you know. The university you go to for undergrad really does not matter that much as you should focus on working hard and getting good grades in that university to eventually transfer to a top tier school for your masters degree if you choose to pursue one. Keep your head up, keep working hard, and you will find success.
Did you apply for financial aids?? If you did that might be your reason of rejections...
Hey, can you please assist me a bit please? I can't seem to get the answers for these questions. So, i saw some videos and they said that I need to study STEM or any other other subject atleast one year in usa as and undergrad for a medical degree and then I need to give my MCAT exam only then can I apply for Harvard, I just want to know that is the information right? Because if I study mbbs i will not be able to apply for Harvard, so it either Harvard or staying in India and completing mbbs here, and it's a huge risk, and i don't want to regret anything later. Could you please please please assist, i can't find any right video or site to clear these doubts, it would be really helpful. Thankyou!
Bro high school percentage and ECs if possible plzz
I subscribed btw
Bro how can we post our gpa because application process starts in December but boards are in March
Hi I just finished my class 11 exams and my class 12 will start in a month from now, Can someone please tell me when is the date for submission of apllications .Is it this year or next year for colleges in USA. Also where did u get your application assesed it.Did you also get help in profile building. Plz share the company which helped u it will be really helful to me
Great video. The process appears to be cery different for international students
Wait a second, you applied ED 2 to both pomona and colgate? Their RD decisions come out in march, and you got them in feb, if you did ED 2 to two colleges, it is highly unethical and you could've gotten into a lot of trouble
Dont be dramatic with the unethical lmao. But it was not a smart decision, cus yes, it could have gotten him into a lot of trouble
@@Ash-uf4fv i wasnt tryna be dramatic lol, it is unethical and that's what I was pointing out

You’re really brave after facing your hard work and dream falling apart you still have yourself together. Hope you’ll do great in bsc and thn make you dream of getting in lvy League come true.
I think u could have applied to safe universities too , so u would have a university as a back up ,if haven’t gotten into any of the ivy leagues ,
so u could have gotten into that ig, according to your application.
pls make video on how to apply for us universities . you are really strong bro dont worry god has plan something big for you. all the best bro .
😇
where do you go to school now?
So where do you go now?
Have you submitted your SAT?

what do you mean by non-registered high school?
This was way scarier than a horror movie
God bless all of you , brave guys !
please make videos for applying, prep for ivy leauges
I can relate omkar, I just some bretty bad rejections too but I'm still hopeful on the other schools that's yet to reveal there decisions, hopefully I get into a good school 🤞
How did you study for SAT bro??
Hey keep up,
But just a query that
When did you give your SAT Exam?
August 2021
when he started speaking odia!
me watches that clip again and again
you should have applied to some safety schools. good luck next time.
Hey you applied after getting your 12th results
Hey can you tell me at what time do you apply in 12th standard or after 12th standard. If you will apply in 12 then how will you fill you 12th marks if the exams aren't done yet
You’ve to give them approximate Marks which has to be given by your school principal based on your 9,10,11 and 12th mid term marks
Most applicants apply while taking the final year high school examination...
Are you in class 12 ?
why did not you applied for safety colleges?? and BTW I got into university of maine at framinton with a SAT score of 1210
Acceptance rate
97%

Something about you makes me feel like you'll be successful no matter what! I'll keep supporting you on this channel ☺️
Can u please do a vedio on how to apply - application procedure
What's a non-registered highschool??
What are your ECs?
Can you make a video on how to make an application
Bro did you pay all of these application fee?
Of course!!
try stevens, iit, or north eastern unis you got differed by harvard that means you could easly get into NEU its next to ivy and dont be upset cause most of these unis do accept people who pay a lot of of money or even students they know
NEU next to Ivy lmao
Lol neu is not good
Dude, I couldn't control my laugh. To be honest, i am in the same condition as you were and, it just made me remember myself waiting for the result and getting rejected, and I am laughing not to mock you but to tell you that there are people like you who motivated people like me to do something better than yesterday, even after not getting what you're expecting and i think, this video is all about Motivation and Motivation and the persistance, that's what we really need.
May be you'll laugh watching your videos and sometimes, it may make you feel bad, at those times, please remember me and people like us, we are the one working for the foundation and By the Grace of Family and the mutual support, we can do impossible as impossible resembles the meaning I'm Possible.
More Power To You!
How you get 100% scholarship??
Just a suggestion bump up your sat score .... it is too low... try for a 1520+....
-cause u are asking for 100% aid....
Bro, the Ivy League education is not worth the selectivity or tuition. Get into a US school that will offer you good financial aid. You can get good education at nearly any state school in the US.
Arey bhai tame Odia ...
Keep going ✨
Pls make a video on SAT etc
we really need a video how to cover the lesson in a week
Bro sorry but don't let these let you down. I too am a Ugandan going to 12th grade next year but I found this video looking for information on how I can apply but I have almost lost my hope😞😞 just because they say it is
even worse for Africans applying for 100 percent funding.
Were u in dummy?
A bit of rant or my experience overall while applying to US colleges: Hey Omkar, it seriously takes balls to accept the rejections like that.. I'm Kumar and just like you I applied to 16 US Uni just to get rejected lol... So I'm a native of Bihar,and I completed my HS from a small private school that nobody has ever heard of..lol.. I needed fin aid so I only applied to need blind(ivy leagues) and some generous LACs.. And I ED'd to UChichago(haha Ik that's was a dumb move but the place I volunteered for had a pretty good relations with UChic Dean of Admissions) I got rejected Obv.. Then comes the March..ugh man one the most depressing month of the year ... Rejections after rejections..I guess it was around mid March that I had an update regarding my ECs so I submitted that to LACs and one of the admissions counselor personally told me that he really liked my application..well I had been conversing with him before...for my silly doubts..So I thought hell yeah man I'm gonna get in..they gonna give me full aid..btw I had 1500 SAT score ..and guess what I got rejected..Obv..Then comes the ivy day... rejections from every college I applied to..I was just shattered and didn't know what to do...cuz u know I was so engrossed in US colleges prep and my ECs that I left my jee prep in the middle (like at the start of class 11) I was in a similar position as yours.. Guess what shit went real hard..I fell into depression...and then comes the boards...I somehow studied even though I didn't wanted to..cuz a part of me knew it wasn't the end..but still ..coming out of that void was gonna take longer than a month..I studied just cuz my past self was very ambitious...and would have never wanted to see myself seeping down to the trench.. Somehow I ended up scoring 90+ in boards..and for my Backup plan...well I thought about giving BITSAT and apply to Ashoka...I got into Ashoka with full financial aid in August last year and I scored 180 marks in BITSAT which wasn't enough for getting CS at Pilani or Goa.... I declined Ashoka offer ...eh man I just wanted to test myself again and took a drop year...even tho my parents wanted me to go to Ashoka I didn't...Right now I'm preparing for JEE and yeah it sucks...but I'm gonna do it anyway... This was my US journey...
TO ANYONE who comes from not-so- good financial background and wanna apply to US... I guess Germany is best bet... Learn German give Jee or Studenkollege.. and study without tuition fee... And TO the people who are upper middle class... apply to universities like UMaryland, UMass Amherst, Drexel, Purdue, University of Shieffield, UT Arlington, I guess u can afford their fee with aid and job...
Thanks have a good day
I'm so sorry to hear that
You are very ambitious..
Proud of you ...
All the best 👍
hi i'm applying to ashoka, how d id you manage to get a full financial aid? can u give me some info?
@@adadadad2004 Hey! I guess the main factor for me getting the full ride at Ashoka was my family's income. They did a lot of background and verification check..Like ITR,Bank statement and any assets(like jewellery,bonds, shares, vehicles if u have any).If u have filled CSS and IDOC form for US universities you will have no issues going throughthe financial aid procedure...Well! As my family income bracket falls below

Best Advice I think is to do test-optional and don't apply for financial aid i.e. try to pay the entire tuition.
It's like you come from a rich family
@@assole6335 Nope I am a citizen, so i can get aid whereas non-citizens don't. so if you don't have money and non-citizens then results will be bad.
Hi what are u doing now ?
bro got a 1380 and blamed the high school 😭
Haha. You got me!
you freak me out ,i hope to be accepted in the second time
u should have applied for state universities aswell their acceptance is higher i guess
how much total cost did you endure for applications to these universities. Can you please let me know ? It would be of great help to me.

Dusra kuch query rehga toh please insta pe bhej.
@@thatunconventionalaspect bro literally spent 80k
Listen omkar I have an advice
In this drop year prepare for jee but apply to texas state universities if your GPA is 4 in all grades from 9 to 12 without CSS profile (like Texas A&M) they give you state tuition so you pay 18K USD per year for tuition which can be earned and paid there in texas by doing internships and side jobs
All the best for the future buddy

I didn't even get to apply. :) I took the sat. My score was a 1210. I fucked up my grade 11 and 12 tests..I failed in maths in 12th prelims 1. So there was no way I was going to get in XD so why should I even waste my time and money trying? Haha .
Happy for you on getting the scholarship tho. Keep it up bro
these universities are hard to get to even harder than iits , i don't understand why indians think just by scoring good grades in school and sat they will get into these colleges.

Hi! a US MD student here! I just came across your video! It's great seeing you applied to so many colleges and your positive attitude towards the outcome! I am not sure how the international SAT process works, but I can see from your application that your SAT score could be an issue( also because you are applying as an international with an unregistered high school!). The other thing that is coming to my mind is that you should have also applied to some City and state schools as your backup! Or apply to some low-tier schools from where you could easily take a transfer for Sophomore year with good grades from Freshman year! that would have solved your high school issue and shown upper-tiered schools that you are a worthy candidate and can handle the curriculum! Good luck with your future endeavor!
Thoda pehle bol deta😂. Just kidding. Thanks for the advise
I think you have made a mistake cause the uni you applied to was very selective, all of them under 20%, which is insane
Even i applied to college in UK Russel group based Universities and got 3 rejection out of 8 which i applied and believe me it's not that hard to deal a rejection because they just run through our application and not carefully read all of our documents but i got a seat and going for 2023 studies in September so yeah...
