This is a very healthy video about how to deal with the realities of life. Not every person will get their dream school, no matter how competitive their application. Not every person will understand or appreciate it is honestly not about them. Sometimes it is just about chance, who reads your application and their mood that day, who else has applied who may have just pipped you to the post, or maybe just you not being the right “fit” for them. Whatever the case, it is not about you. You are still the same high achieving individual as you were before the rejection and you are still quite capable of finding what is the right next step for you - nothing, I repeat - nothing - has lessened your value to this world or what you have to contribute to it. Yes, it hurts and yes, it is healthy to live that hurt and not play it off, but it is also healthy to continue to value yourself and your successes and keep moving forward!!! Gutted for you Ibz but also proud of you for working through it and not giving up on yourself!!! You are still IBZ MY NUMBER ONE MAN!!!! Super proud of you and believe in you fully and with great celebration - Harvard or not!!! Still believe you are a fantastic role model for our young people and thank you for all you are and do.
You can be successful with or without your dream school, but I want to destroy this idea that perfect applicants get rejected. **People who are meant for their dream schools, get into their dream schools.** Sometimes being perfect in one area isn’t the best for a particular school. I just want to put out there that if you’re incredibly successful on your own, have well-intentioned connections to the school that match your expertise, and score high on standardized exams there’s literally no reason why an applicant reviewing your app would reject you. So it’s not black and white, it’s how long have you been dedicated towards wanting to study at this school. It can’t all necessarily come together within a year, and sometimes your reasons for wanting to go to your dream school are just terrible compared to people who are doing it to uplift their communities and support the world, Ibz even identifies his app wasn’t competitive. The right people do get into the right schools, and I’m happy Ibz took this as a learning opportunity to analyze the strengths & weaknesses of his app, good on him. At the end of the day, it doesn’t really seem like he cares too deeply, which is a good thing, and will allow him to work hard on continuing to grow himself.
Val I agree at the end of the day . It’s a school and Everyone around the world the chose the same subject is getting the getting the same degree . No one is any less smarter because they were rejected
Their management school got a 100 million donation to work on programs focused on education a few months ago 🤷🏽♀️. I actually think their campus is nicer than Harvard’s.
@@gabrieljohnson484 It’s number 1 in the US because they only accept the best, when you filter through all the idiots, you such technically only have students producing very high quality work....
ahh I got rejected from medicine this year and have to take the autumn exams and have a gap year so it’s definitelyyy redirection but hopefully all will go well🥺🙏🏾
Uchisi good! I was downgraded 2 whole grades so I was rejected from my firm and insurance. But after the u turn my place at my firm choice was honoured.
Remember that your application was rejected NOT YOU. Rejection can be a great thing, just learn from this and prove yourself in another way. Whether that be at another uni or job you can grow from this
I got rejected from dental schools last year and I spent the year as a gap year (I thought I’d travel and shit but corona happened 😭🤪) Just know that it’s going to be okay! You have to take this opportunity and try go grow in a positive way so that one day you can thank the uni for rejecting you bc that helped you in ways you never thought it would.
I guess Peopoe care because if the name of the university. Most people couldn’t care less about the uni itself . It’s really just the name people gravitate towards lmao
Remember, university is a means to an end. Of course academia is great, but it’s a bubble to real life sometimes. Don’t lose track of your goals, there’s a million ways to get there !
You know what Mo, i've watched you since your a-level videos right, and you being from a working class family and ending up in a prestigious uni like Cambridge shows how much of a hard working person you are. And quite frankly your better than Harvard.... p.s. i fucking loved the intro....and i saw the new profile pic and love the new and updated channel...🎉
I love this outlook on it - it’s something people often don’t like to accept but it’s true! God always has a plan for us and as you said rejection is redirection! 💛
can i just say i’m super impressed at how real he is about why he wants to go to Harvard. Harvard has always been my dream school and it’s series like gilmore girls that made me want to get in lolol and i’ve had so many people telling me that i dont have a reason that’s legitimate enough
i felt that Ibz!! you can’t take rejection so personally. I remember getting rejected from a uni I thought I was good enough for and it felt like a kick in the teeth for 17 yr old me, but now I look back and understand that it’s not personal. It was what was best for me, and the uni probably knew that more than I did. Anyways I just graduated from a uni that was perfect for me so 😙✌️
don't worry ibz! everybody has a 2% chance tops of getting into harvard, which only bumps up to 3% if you have a Nobel Prize under your belt. if your parents studied there however, it jumps up to 98%, which is why harvard doesn't nearly deserve someone as good as you. you didn't lose them, they lost you!
@@josephbrennan370Legacy doesn't count for much in college applications unless your parents are big donors (high 6 figures minimum). Then it'll make a difference.
@@hoixthegreat8359 no it makes chances for Harvard go from 4% to about 17% I read. That could in part be because the legacy applicants are more prepared since their parents went there, but idk
The GRE was your downfall. You will have been compared to others who also took the exam. It was as you said, nothing to do with connections but your low scores. I agree, many chase the Oxbridge train and never really appreciate what they have achieved. There are popular youtubers who are depressed because they got rejected by Oxford for both undergraduate and masters programmes. Also remember that faculties will look on social media, so be careful what you put out there .......its all about the impression that you may or may not give. You are already a winner, rejoice in that, learn from the past and use it for your future!
I needed to hear this. I’m applying to Harvard this autumn and am mainly scared of a rejection. This has made me think more positively about the experience as a journey, no matter the outcome, and if it’s a rejection, then I simply go down another path. Thank you
Honestly your attitude is something young people should aspire to have. You're so authentic with your responses and I can tell they're really thought through and true to what you believe, you should be proud🎉
Honestly such an icon. Also feel sorry for oxbridge rejects too. This one girl I know at uni genuinely cried that she didn’t get in but her boyfriend did . People get so upset 😭. Glad you aren’t letting your rejection turn into something so upsetting ! Xx
This really did come out at the perfect time. On a-leves results day, I got rejected from my dream uni but when the CAG grades were issued, I met the entry requirements. That chosen uni hasn't got back to me so I'm stuck with my insurance. Rejection is redirection as you said and I'm content compared to how I was a few weeks back
Well at this point, I feel that you've won. My sister was planning to go Harvard University in United States but changed her mind to decided to apply to go to Cambridge, but then she changed her mind again and decided to go to Kings College in London 🙌☝🏾
@@CaptainThugRdx She was, we both knew it wasn't easy at all. It took a lot of hard work. She's so proud and I'm even more proud. Plus, she's going into her second year 🙌
Mo, keep your head up my man! Most top US universities are very very hard on International students applying due a lack of spots available and the amount of processing required to admit non-US residents.
First thing first, thank you for telling this story. It takes so much courage (at least for me) to speak up about what doesn’t go as planned (I don’t use the word failure bcuz doing smth your best can never be called one). As another undergrad I share w you the pressure to make a beautiful uni path, and it’s good to see another side of story esp when most yt videos out there are about getting accepted into ivy leagues and stuffs. You’ve done your best and it’s truly inspiring!
cant tell you how much i needed to hear alladis. been applying for paralegal jobs since i finished my law degree in May. still be here unemployed. 1,000s of applications submitted at this point. i consider myself lucky if some of these law firms even bother to let me know that i've been unsuccessful - most just leave me out to dry. been feeling a bit sorry for myself. needed this ibz
I’m in my 3rd year (out of a 5 year combined degree because I’m Australian) and I’m upset about not being able to find something to gain legal experience in. This is also really disheartening when you see your peers doing really great things and you’re just working in retail
@@ZOOBZGOMEZ i feel you. the only job im likely to get at the moment is in hospitality... kinda frustrating to still only be able to get jobs that i was doing before i had a degree. a law degree just seems like a very expensive trophy to me at the moment!
Yareelit Have you considered using your law degree for something else? I think it’s a relatively malleable degree in some regards.And I agree man so many people study it nowadays. I legit had no awareness of its popularity until I started.
@@ZOOBZGOMEZ I've had a look at other stuff a little e.g. HR or recruitment or generic admin jobs, a lot of them you need some form of specific qualification, or if not they're looking for someone with at least 1 years' experience. Very frustrating!
I got my a level results B for maths Distinction star for ICT Merit for Business. Alhamdulillah to study electrical engineering at university. Doesn't matter what university you go, just work hard and never give up.
I completely feel with this. I really wanted to get into this one university for my master's but I got rejected. I was devastated. I had tied so many of my aspirations to it. I needed to realise that my aspirations and dreams needed to be independent of where I went to university.
the graphics?/labels really help my adhd self focus on the video. also i love your perspective on this, it helps and will help in the future with my rejection ty
Stay humble bro, keep it up, stay strong and 100% agree with you that sometimes you just have to move on 👍🏼 What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger 💪 💯 ✨
The maturity in this video inspires me. You handled this really well. I recently got rejected from a Russel group uni so this video came at the perfect time.
LMAO THE LOWER MATHS GRE IS SUCH A MOOD 😭😭😭😭 i hope theres better things for u out there ibz, everything happens for a reason, maybe u wouldnt actually be happy at harvard and dodged a bullet?? you got this !! did not skip any ads king 🙈🙈🙈 your view on rejection is refreshing, hoping your new stuff makes you happier 💓💓
I’m so proud of you Ibz! You are someone of your own and lemme tell u something any kind of uni doesn’t define who you are🤍 you worked very very hard for your education Mashallah ❤️ u ll have a brighter future Inshallah ❤️
Ibz we are all so proud of you with all that you have accomplished and all the inspiration you have instilled in us ❤ God has something so much better in store for you 💓
IBZ MO YOU'RE MY INSPIRATION for school and beyond - thank you for sharing your experiences in a genuine way. alsoooo, so when are you starting your acting career? - i wish i knew
You look so happy Ibz, so healthy and so at peace. The channel makeover is marking the beginning of a journey that we're so luck to witness and learn from. I really do think we can become a little arrogant or a little overconfident if we keep seeing Ws and no Ls so thank you for this video, it's needed. Rejection truly is redirection. Big love x
I just found your channel but I honestly LOVE YOU!!! I really needed to hear this cause I will graduate in July and I'm very unsure of what to do about my master's because of COVID and everything but I'm really considering applying for UCL, King's College and LSE but I'm already preparing myself for failure.
Thank you for this video. It reminds me of some of the same feelings I had about a month ago. In June I got a conditional offer to do a PhD at Cambridge, and I had the right documentation to have it turned into an unconditional offer, but the Graduate Admissions Office took too long and I lost my funding. I tried my best to fix things, at the same time I was writing my masters dissertation, it was all really stressful. In the end I just had to withdraw, I was really hurt, especially since I had no back-up plan for the rest of this crazy year. But I'm doing much better now. I'm working on other applications for next year to other places, and I'll probably start looking for jobs soon.
So proud of you! What you have achieved is unbelievable, no one can ever take that away from you. Btw I watched two and a half minutes of adds for you 😭😂
Ibz you've achieved so much, more than some people who started off with a lot more than you. Stay strong and keep striving, there's a bigger plan for you.
Why didn’t you apply to other Ivy League uni’s? Just bc u got rejected from Harvard, doesn’t mean other ivies wouldn’t have accepted you. Honestly could see u thriving at Columbia.
The eptitome of stagecraft, I must say Ibz. Spectacular! Love it. The way you maturely handle rejection as just another occurrence of life is commendable and a trait worth instilling!
This was a brilliant video Ibz! I'm glad to see you taking this rejection well. It's a really mature outlook and now with uni applications coming up this year, I think I'll be coming back to this video in the case I get rejected to remind myself that rejection isn't the end of the world and like you said, it's redirection.
I never ever comment - just need to say, as a fellow ‘overmotivated professional student’, thank you! Even though everybody needs to go through their rejections themselves to understand this, you have put it and articulated it so well
Missed you, Ibz! Honestly checked your channel yesterday for new videos! Was happy and sad to see this... But you know we have full faith you’ll find your way
You really had me there with your fake crying! I was already thinking of a nice and comforting comment to write to help you cope x) I'm really happy to see that you're well even though it kind of sucks... Allah has something great planned for you inchallah , just wait for it ❤️❤️❤️

It takes courage to share negative or painful experiences with the world. Kudos for being authentic
yk what imma rewatch the whole video with my adblock off now.
You deserve it Ibz x
love u
Keep your head up king😭💯
Thank you for this video. It reminds me of some of the same feelings I had about a month ago. In June I got a conditional offer to do a PhD at Cambridge, and I had the right documentation to have it turned into an unconditional offer, but the Graduate Admissions Office took too long and I lost my funding. I tried my best to fix things, at the same time I was writing my masters dissertation, it was all really stressful. In the end I just had to withdraw, I was really hurt, especially since I had no back-up plan for the rest of this crazy year. But I'm doing much better now. I'm working on other applications for next year to other places, and I'll probably start looking for jobs soon.
So proud of you! What you have achieved is unbelievable, no one can ever take that away from you. Btw I watched two and a half minutes of adds for you 😭😂
Harvard's admission policies seem very shady to me. So many qualified applicants, the way they admit people remains a secret.
THIS IS SO GOOD
ibz your uploads make my day, i was super stressed about returning to uni and this vid maDE MY DAY. THANK YOU.
Ibz you've achieved so much, more than some people who started off with a lot more than you. Stay strong and keep striving, there's a bigger plan for you.
Why didn’t you apply to other Ivy League uni’s? Just bc u got rejected from Harvard, doesn’t mean other ivies wouldn’t have accepted you. Honestly could see u thriving at Columbia.
He was confident I guess. You do not have to compromise if it is not necessary
@@efthymiosn3381 noooo. He didn't want other Ivy leagues because Rihanna didn't go there. I love him 😂
The eptitome of stagecraft, I must say Ibz. Spectacular! Love it.
The way you maturely handle rejection as just another occurrence of life is commendable and a trait worth instilling!
Stop going on Malaysian flights and while applying to Harvard !! 🙄 it jinxes it
lmao
the intro omg periodddd
This is the best attitude and I definitely need to remember this too!! Keep thriving & good luck w law work 🙏
Harvard's loss btw x
This was a brilliant video Ibz! I'm glad to see you taking this rejection well. It's a really mature outlook and now with uni applications coming up this year, I think I'll be coming back to this video in the case I get rejected to remind myself that rejection isn't the end of the world and like you said, it's redirection.
Ibz is JUST AMAZING!! If his journey doesn’t inspire you, his energy will! ❤️✨
Despite the rejection you're still smashing it. Can't wait to see the next chapter
Honestly, I'm so inspired by your outlook. I'm learned so much from this video.
Only a few minutes in and omg Ibz! The video quality, the graphics, you're glowing!!!!
So proud of you, Ibrahim. You are a true inspiration to everyone. Keep being your amazing self ❤️
Wow I’m deadass watching an ad, that’s love right there!😂
I never ever comment - just need to say, as a fellow ‘overmotivated professional student’, thank you! Even though everybody needs to go through their rejections themselves to understand this, you have put it and articulated it so well
Takes a lot to understand your own thought process and come to deal with how to take rejection. Awesome POV on it all!
thanks man! big fan of ur channel... been there since the beginning like some stalker
I needed to hear this! SERIOUSLY thank you!
The fact that I was already laughing at the intro so thank god it was fake😭💀❤️
asha the crying was so dramatic and I was like Ibz babes this isn’t you😭💀 I knew it just had to be fake🤣
asha i think i might’ve hurt Ibz feelings though cos he liked and unliked my comment🤭😭
@@umaryousaf37 If you edit the comment, the heart is removed
Noe 200 I edited it before💀
Missed you, Ibz! Honestly checked your channel yesterday for new videos! Was happy and sad to see this... But you know we have full faith you’ll find your way
Proud how mature your advice was Ibz! Best of luck with your future plans!!
Love you Ibz! Keep your head up. You never what Allah is saving you from with this rejection, and what he’s guiding you towards
Look at them slick waves in his hair.
