    I think a main aspect that the college administrators were looking for was the overall theme. You had a lot of activities and honors that related to the major you applied for. And that shows a passion. And I heard colleges prefer that over perfect test and a model student. Congratulations in getting into Standford!!

      Yale demographics for African Americans as at 2019 is 5.6% of the student population,bias against Asians I can concur,but against whites who are 44% is bs!!! The current justice department we have is politicized ,they are just trying to stir an obvious section of the population up because of November.If the whites are discriminated against just like Asians there must be a beneficiary,well blacks are only 5%.Obviously,the percentage of foreign students if I may guess will be at least 15%,but this is because they pay the most money out of pocket,which is common sense because private universities are for profit.

    So after watching this video I spent 16minutes finding out what highschool classes will go with my majors and summer tutor sessions, then I realized my parents aren’t gonna pay 1000$ for my tutoring so I researched what fast food restaurants pay the most and what age I can get a job, so when I found this information out I made a google doc and wrote down my “plan” just to remember I’m only in 7th grade.

      This could play a minor role in her acceptance, however, big colleges always accept a very small handful of students that are not qualified. So I doubt aff action played a role in her acceptance, but rather her character and achievements + honestly a boatload of luck.

    • @ohnoirpodcast
      @ohnoirpodcast  4 роки тому +5

    Too much competition these days for teens. The things they do to get into good colleges... it's ridiculous. So much competing and comparing. Do not feel obligated to get into schools simply for the reputations that surround them. Many teens nowadays just want to get in because it's a trend. They want approval among their friends and social media. The bits of social approval may not last long if life during and after college are spent miserably. You're still young. Enjoy the time while you can, and do not bury yourself in work, competition, and Internet comparison so much -- even if it's the "trend." Bragging rights and admiration from your peers may seem important now, but trends shift so quickly now! Better to stick to your true passions and not let colleges and social approval define you.

    • @babygirl-nl4im
      @babygirl-nl4im 4 роки тому +2

      Tho Le this sounds like someone who isnt academically competitive tho. you dont get it obviously. alot of people at these schools are there because they push themselves to succeed, obligation to get into an ivy will literally only get your so far, if you dont have self-drive and are academically competitive it wont work for you.

    • @babygirl-nl4im
      @babygirl-nl4im 4 роки тому +4

      This is good, but not to discourage you, it is important to know that a student with a standing like hers is extremely unlikely to be accepted to a school like Stanford. "Big" top ten colleges often accept a very small handful of kids who aren't very qualified. In a realistic perspective, she doesn't have a huge "spike" in her application and hardly qualifies as a well rounded student. However, I am sure she worked very hard.

    Did you not take any languages? I thought most colleges required four years of language.

    Comment before fully watching video - I thought you couldn't get merit scholarships at Stanford? Was your scholarship need-based? Also I love your bookshelves!

    • @ohnoirpodcast

      Yes need based

    For my school, I heard Pre-calc honors is 8 weeks of precalculus and then the rest is AP Calc A/B and most students go to Calc BC the following year (I'm currently doing the summer hw for Pre-Calc Honors already). I noticed that you are taking AP Calc A/B for senior year and was wondering if your case is the same as mine? Could you have chosen Calc B/C for your Senior year after passing Pre-Calc Honors? My school won't let me take AP Calc A/B my junior year unless I give up my AP History class when I pass Pre-Calculus over the summer (I plan to take Pre-Calc at the community college to prepare me. There is only one class of each subject and they are during the same time/period).
    Can anyone give me any input? Is it better/more impressive to drop AP History and take AP Calc A/B your junior year or just take Pre-Calc honors (and AP History) which is 8 weeks of Pre-Calc and then the rest is Calculus (allowing me to take the Calc AP test anyways). I plan to take 5 AP classes next year/Junior year (idk if my counselor will try to stop me). I've never taken an AP course before and did two years of English honors which was the only thing available but I've received an unweighted 4.0 GPA. Thanks you for your time reading this comment.

      My situation wasn't like that, I took pure precalc junior year and then AP Calc AB senior year. I think taking one class or another doesn't necessarily make things "more impressive", what matters most is what you're interested in and what you can do well in! I never took 5 AP classes (only 4) at one time, so be prepared for a heavy workload, but if you're interested in the subjects it won't be too bad! You got this!

      Tristyn thank you so much for taking your time to read my post. Absolutely. Math is one my favorites and so are the other four subjects. Also, was there anyone else in your grade taking the same math classes as you or were you a year advanced in math. Thanks and congrats once again on getting in!

    So I live in a small rural school (I’m a junior) and I’m just now learning about ap tests are so... I never took them but I want to go to a prestigious university +we don’t have ap classes
    :( any advice ?

    • @ohnoirpodcast
      @ohnoirpodcast  4 роки тому +3

      Honestly I would say try to take college courses online or enroll in a local college if possible. The lack of AP courses will be reflected when the admissions officers look at the stats for your school though!

    The days of Stanford accepting a 1320 SAT & offering a scholarship may soon be over (see SCOTUS upcoming ruling). Good on you for just being you and making a compelling case! I'm sure Richard Sander's "Mismatch" did not apply to you. My pronouns are why/god/why

    Great accomplishment, but to be honest I think there's some affirmative action, as an asian 1320 is probably no go, unless someone else I'm wrong!

    I took algebra 1 again in my freshman year due to the school circumstances and they had requested me to take geometry sophomore, algebra ll junior, and AP calc bc in my senior year. Would college administrators look at my portfolio and see that I took algebra ll my junior year and not accept me? Do colleges look at senior year course?
