    “Learn how to say no because it’s better than saying nothing” - can’t agree more👍🏻

    If anyone I know gets into Harvard, I am going to make them write “What? Like it’s hard?” on their graduation cap! 🎓

    I go to university in the UK, so my situation is obviously a little different here, BUT learning to enjoy learning and caring more about learning to do things rather than caring about the grades is KEY. Not only will this benefit you in the long run, but in my experience it makes you actually learn things rather than just obtain information. Also, just enjoy it. Like allow yourself to enjoy it.

    Christine I love your videos!! Thank you for being such an amazing and kind person! ❤️ If you don’t mind please answer one question: did you have any awards you’ve gotten that you listed when applying for these ivy leagues and if so, what were they? the reason i’m asking is bc i’ve heard you need to have crazy accomplishments like national awards (finalist of science olympiads, etc.) on your application in order to make it into harvard/ivies. please let me know and thank you!!!

    Is google calendars still useful if your college doesn’t use the G-suite? I’d ideally not want to switch between multiple platforms

    • @christinelee123
      @christinelee123  4 роки тому

      not sure; if anything, i’m pretty sure apple calendars let you consolidate multiple calendars into one, so you could look into that. but Gcals are definitely very useful!
