Bro absolutely violated his dad at 8:20 😂😂😂 I’d like to add that your advice towards the end is incredibly valuable. I did the same thing and landed at UPenn so I can definitely agree that it is a great way to present your application. Great work!
Congratulations....my son got into and will be attending Stanford as well this fall. Your advice on applications is spot on. I would also emphasize the importance of a strong thread of continuity between what you want to study, what you're activities have been, and how you intend to utilize the school to help you make a significant impact in the area you intend to study through your studies at the school.
W Video I'm 15 and going into my junior year at a public high school near Houston. This gave me a ton of motivation to keep doing the things I love to do to build my journey, and I'll have a much deeper essay come senior year. Thanks bro keep it up.
That was a great advice. I want to stress that to everyone who is going to apply to college. I did the same strategy and got into Vanderbilt full ride. Congrats on Stanford and all the other college acceptances man.
Hey Rishi! My name is also Rishi 😂! Congrats on all your acceptances, especially Stanford. It was especially nice to see all your friends celebrating with you for your Duke and Berkeley decisions. Btw I’m class of 2024 😂
Wow congrats! I'm so happy for you and your family. Would really appreciate a stats and ecs video. Also, did you have to provide a maker portfolio for any of the college that you applied to? And if so, could you also include that in your stats and eco vid? Your composure through the rejections was really inspiring.
thanks man. im making stats + ecs video rn. i never made maker portfolio but I submitted the personalized video to Brown (which I recommend you to do so as well if you decide to apply). also yea even during your eventual college process don't tweak out over rejections - it's never that deep and they prolly never read your application
Please make a stats and ec video. Still surprised you got rejected from all 8 ivies but got into Stanford and Duke. That’s just insane. Like actually who wouldn’t want to go to Stanford. Better than all the ivies
i got you - its in the making. ivies look for more liberal arts/generalists - stanford/duke/berk -> entrepreneur in STEM. i was honestly surprised too when it happened though lol
@@JKsmoove3 lol if i can give any advice to you - don't have a dream school. if you get rejected you will go crazy thinking about mistakes in your application. go with the flow. have reach schools, targets, and safeties, and be fine with any of your options
you gotta be like that or your gonna tweak out when you get rejected. don't fantasize about schools or when you get rejected you think abt it day and night
lol i am. my reactions are a little dull cause honestly i didn't care abt most of these colleges - also i took the advice that you should never go in with any expectation. even hypsm level colleges might not fit you as a person so just go with the flow lol
@@RishiHHP good talk man I got three things to say 1. Good luck for everything at Stanford 2. You are probably one of the attractive guys to get into top colleges 3. Please do a stats and ecs video Go Stanford!!!
lol never knew how good of a school it was. just saw it on usnews cs rankings and applied. great school though and i was ready to go honestly after i did more research.
haha not sure what happened w/ uwash but uiuc has a crazy cs program (sub 5% acceptance rate) - uwash is also good but i was very surprised when i got rejected
honestly it just goes to show how random this process is - college admissions is so flawed - but also UIUC and UWash CS programs have very low acceptance rates even though the general colleges is high so it is also possible they just didn't feel like I fit into their school
@@RohanChopra-ss4id dawg i was just ass at sports lmao. i always had so much free time during high school - usually everyone does as long as they aren't involved in school specifically b/c some stuff is seasonal
@@RishiHHP I doubt that bro I don’t mean to stereotype but I thought you do a lot of coding only in your free time or you always code and do school unless you’re naturally a born genius or something Sorry for everything I saif
hell nah - B's are detrimental but A's (in general) should be fine; just try to show an upward trend for grades (go for 94 next sem, 96 next, 98 next, 100 next) -> progress shows colleges you are getting better and will not negatively impact you. grades are just a barrier to entry (not a rzn to get in, but a rzn to get denied)
@@RohanChopra-ss4id yea but my school used the 100 scale. gpa really isn't standardized so there isn't a purpose in re-calculating your gpa with stuff that your school doesn't use. your weightage systems would reflect in your class rank, and other wise schools would understand your gpa is good if its >4.0 and sat is high. but for your question its literally just the (insert gpa here/100)*4
Hey Rishi Congratulations brother. Actually I need your help can you please make a video on (how to write the essays for Stanford and what are the extracurricular) Once again congratulations brother, I’m really happy for you. And what is ur Linkdin id ?
thanks man; i got you w/ the video (stats + ecs + stanford essays); but generally the advice I have for essays is 1) common app - get 100000 people to look at it and MAKE SURE it is the best thing you've written in your life and tells your ENTIRE story (not just some random experience) 2) supplemental - show every single part of your personality; Stanford doesn't necessarily like quirky, but they like 3-dimensional people with niche interests who will change the world - make your essays personable and relaxed, but also with a subject matter that conveys you will change the world linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/rishics/
@@hopsmax2827 no. you can take none and go TO (test optional). you can take one and submit that single score. you can take both and submit both to colleges through the common app. up to you, your motivation, your test taking ability, and your scores
yea cac doesn't care about topic - just use some cutting edge tech (ai/ml right now) and you should usually win unless some crazy person is also competing with you
@@RishiHHP oh ok what age did you start coding and can international students prepare too and when is the contest like how do you win and enter it sorry for all the questions
@@RohanChopra-ss4id i started fucking around w it in like 7th ish - but actually started 9th; intl can prepare it's just probably on your own time; you gotta do your own research for contests but for hackathons look at devpost - everything else is based on your major/what you want to do
hey bro this is weird to ask but does your dad have a linkedin account i know it sounds weird but i have a habit of stalking people on linkedin and coneecting with them sorry
i went in with no expectations and honestly just shotgunned the top cs schools. didn't really have any infatuation with any of them (other than USC at the start but got put into RD; i started tweaking after this so I decided to not fantasize about any more schools); also some of these schools are amazing, but I only realized after researching them post-acceptance
your reaction vs moms reaction to gt cracked me up-
lol i knew nothing about gt when I applied - amazing school though
bro's world is thunderstorms and sadness 😭
