Watching this video honestly gives me a lot more confidence than I had while starting it. I kept comparing my profile to the ones described in the video and as I felt it leaning more and more towards the elitist profile I found myself feeling more and more relieved. This was a great video for reassurance to stick through this journey and was much needed during the boards pressure. Thank you so much ma'am you're always the best!!!
Glad I could get the point across! It's not the profile and numbers that makes your profile elite, it's you as a student and how you choose to present it 💪🏼
This video was really well made and it released so much of my self-doubt and boosted my confidence. I would constantly compare my profile with others and come up with the conclusion that it is not enough, but this video gave out the needed clarity over great essays for simple things. Thank you so much, ma'am, you are literally a life saviour and all the best to the crazy medusa channel!
As a rising senior this video has been extremely helpful at both calming some nerves, and giving really good advice on how to market myself in the admissions process!
I am from USA, but I originally moved from Bangladesh during my middle school. Honestly, I was not expecting that I would know this much information in such a short video! Very well said and I am also feeling very good after you said how professors also want to know what pushed me into certain competitions rather than just what you got at the end. Have a great one!
This is incredibly helpful! Thank you. As an international student I lack a lot of context. This detailed video gave me great insights into the ideal student profile.
I really really wish that you posted this video a year earlier. It would’ve been so helpful. I got rejected by 3 Ivies and waitlisted by 2 and no acceptance. And a lot of other colleges I applied waitlisted me. After watching you, it just hit me like some part of my resume is average profile and while another part is elite profile.
Thank you so much for your videos! I'm a brazilian high school student preparing myself to get into a ivy league college, a very big chalenge, expecialy because the way that the aplications happens here in Brazil is totally diferent of the USA way to analise a profile. So, again, thank you so much for introducing that matter in a very incredible way.
This is very helpful. I am in 7th grade but I still am Interested in learning about collages and being prepared. I would love to get into an Ivy league school as it would give me ample opportunity to learn about my chosen field to study. Ivy league schools provide a rigorous academic course. In addition, many jobs would take me more seriously when looking at my resume. This was very Informative. Thank You!!!!!!!!!!
if anybody sees this comment ; we’re in it together. let’s heal and change and become better for ourselves and the ones we love through our own strength because we are capable! trust in yourself
Thank you so muchhh for really useful content, im a future international student and this video helped me a lot with steps of applying particularly extracurricular activities
Thank you for such an informative video. I'm going to high school this year and I'm so grateful for this video because it taught me what i should focus on. glad to have found this early on so that I know to further develop my skills in the passion project i'm invested in, rather than focusing solely on acads and test scores.
can you make a vidoe abt how should the common app application look for someone who is applying after a gap year? Discuss the parts where gap year students should focus on more, tell what is different in their application from the "non-gap year" applicants and tell the way the admission comittee assesses such kind of applications etc. I think that this is a demanding topic with a lot of unanswered questions. I rarely see common app guides for the "gap year students", despite the fact that almost 30%+ of high school graduates take a gap year
Hi Saloni, the way you are doing videos are too good. I would request more videos on scholarships? Preferably full raid in IVY and non IVY leagues. Activities Vs weightage. Apart from academics.
The Tier 1 school that seems to reject the most students out of the big 5 ....Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Yale, Stanford....is most definitely Stanford, they are extremely particular , and this video basically covers part of it ..I was able to crack the code by actually consulting with a former Stanford Admissions Committee Officer , $300 an hour step by step consulting that is

First of all a great handoff to your honesty and hardwork for creating such a useful videos. Could you do a video regarding to universities in US offering Artificial Intelligence Course for the upcoming year 2024
My school has GT/AA which is Gifted and Talented / Advanced Academics. It's right in between honors and AP and gives the same gpa boost as AP but you don't take the AP test.
AP is not difficult, if anything it's more of knowing how to take the TEST like the ACT. You need to know the material, but knowing the exam is gonna bost your score a lot more than material knowledge.
Please make a video about the US education system and how it is different from the Asian system. What new things do Asian students face in US universities. It will help me to prepare myself for the future.
I am B.A graduate and currently I'm working as an HR recruiter. I wanna pursue MBA from USA to excell my skills and profile. I'm not from a loaded family therefore I can't afford study from USA but I have strong desire to complete my MBA from USA. My academic grades are excellent. Could you please suggest me what should I do ????
please make a seprate video on how to make our profile because it's quite confusing and also on hpow to apply for visa and when and how to prepare for that
hi , loved the video , could you maybe make a separate video about how do apply for scholarship , as in which part of the admission process do I ask or mention about the scholarship
The only problem for me is that I do not have any certified achievements for some extracurricular activities although I have certainly done some of them with great passion.
No wonder admission in such universities is tough most of the students present the end result but the real key is what pushed you they want free thinkers not a machine who starts when someone tells them
mostly for undergraduate, as colleges tend to look at activities outside of school a lot! For graduate in general other than having a wholesome profile- a lot of focus is shed on academic projects!
As a prospective undrgad student , I really wanna know about the AP courses and the sources available in India to prepare Your videos help a lot !! Thanks
Questions: -For grades (class 12,11,10,9) is it the avg grade for all subjects or just some specific subject? -Where can I practice AP&SAT and what learning sources are the best? -Does certificates from op learning courses like coursera or some Uni program matter? Please respond to my questions.. And tysm for the vid&knowledge
1. An average from all classes 2.getting a tutor would be the best but I hear there are a lot of free sources so you should probably search that up. 3.depends on the school but last time I checked the ivs mit and Standford don't take those into account
@@Alexgamer-wx1hs Thanks a lot, but for 1 my religious school contains subjects like Religion, Quran, PPKN, and crafts, other than general ones like science, math, and english.. So does it still matter? For 2, where do you find your tutor? Which web/app/place? What is 1 web/app/book that you recommend?
Ma'am 😊 Sharing this kind of stealth informations and teaching pure knowledge... Is just Great!... in one word. And I have a question that can we submit just 10th and 12th grade marks...And avoid 9th and 11th... ?
First of all….thanks a lot for all these amazing and extremely helpful videos ……as a transfer student what should we do to increase our acceptance in ivy leagues and tier 1 universities??
as i said in the video, after grades all that matters is how you present your profile, and how much you spend on doing extracurricular activities to stand out!
Honestly I think I have an excellent profile for an ivy but I haven't really taken any exams like toelfs or ielts, and highly doubt I will cause I have no money for them, so I guess I´ll always wonder what could have been if I had applied
Maam can you guide My grades: 9th: 83% 10th: 85% 11th[PCMB]:93% 12th[PCMB]:surely 95%+ Extracurricular: Was U17 football team captain at interschool lvl. Volunteer in many big events Participate in Olympiads and activities related to Art.
Listen, im from Australia and haven't even considered applying for an ivy league yet, but the elite profile is litterally so close to what I have. Should I consider applying to an ivy league?

Please make video about Harvard business school and financial aid package.
For the activities, you do not have to state “for four years” because there will be another place for that. That is just wasting your characters.
Ma'am I like your accent..........❤❤
I mean I did not get this point of taking AP, my school Counselor might not even know what it is?
Can you take from other schools?
Please make a dedicated video about AP exams in India.
IB is much more difficult than AP, if you did ib there is no need for AP.

nope, if you can't give it then you just simply don't fill anything for it
Just send the astroid. We need reset
Activity description can not exceed the word count of 150 words:(
