Hey everyone! I wanted to come on here and let everyone know that they will be alright going into this upcoming cycle. I wasn’t the best in academics at my school having scored 3/4’s on some of my ap exams, and I remember thinking I was cooked. Then September rolled around and I scored 1500+ on my SAT and had a sigh of relief. Got into my state schools with < 1 week submissions (which my counselor said was a record for the speed at which I got it). All this is going to say that you will be fine, and I’m happy to share that I got into Northeastern EA w/88K scholarship + honors at Boston campus, Cornell, Duke, Georgia Tech, UT Austin, UW Madison, and TAMU. If anyone needs any advice/counseling then please feel free to shoot me a dm, I’ll be more than happy to help and alleviate some of the concerns that some of you guys may be having.

Hey everyone! I’m a current senior who just finished up the college app process and got into schools like Northeastern (EA w/88K Scholarship + honors), Cornell, Duke, GT, UIUC, and UT Austin. Wanted to come back here and let you guys know that quality > quantity, and that to be honest when you guys get to the point in time when you are writing essays you’ll realize that a lot of the essays are extremely similar and you just have to change up a few lines, not make new ones. If anyone needs any personalized help feel free to DM me, we can talk there as well. I remember going on this subreddit a lot for advice so I can definitely share my 2c as well.

Thght I’d post here to try to answer any questions I can (with a grain of salt ofc). There’s so much information to be gained as some of u all r entering this process and I remember being in ur shoes not even a year ago, feel free to ask anything or reach out to me in DMs, just want to give back and help out even one person as much as I can
