Hi friends!
Vassar is my dream school, I would love to get out of the west and move out east to meet more like minded folks and become a part of a more diverse community! I’m a high school junior so I still have a year before I apply but I’m worried I’m not doing enough.

My unweighted gpa is 3.9 and weighted is 4.2. So far I’ve taken 3 AP classes but by next year it will have been 7 and by senior year it will be 10, my school offers about 28-30 AP classes in a given year. I also have two honors classes and a college course and next year I’ll be mostly taking college courses at our local university. I’m president and founder of the Young Progressives Club I have a capstone program on youth voter registration I’m working on which the club is partially a part of. Varsity member of our academic team and by senior year I should have competed nationally for it 3 times. I’m a member of our equity council club, I’ll have my seal of biliteracy in French, I was a social media intern for our school health clinic and now my position is president of student advisory board for that same clinic. I’m an intern of our local non partisan youth voice group which goes on a lobbying trip to our state capitol each year. I’m a member of NHS and hope to apply for a position next year, I work doing childcare for a Lutheran church, I volunteer at an elementary school, and local library. I hope to start playing golf this year and through next year.

I’ve done some other various things I could put on an application but I just mentioned the bigger things I’ve done. I’ve led a walkout and other stuff but I don’t think that exactly helps my chances.

I don’t think I did a good job of making that sound impressive but it feels like a lot to me considering the amount of autistic burnout I’ve experienced. I know that ultimately that doesn’t matter and it’s just what Vassar determines they’d like to see in an applicant.

If there’s anything I can do to boost my chances please let me know. I know it’s about being a well rounded human and not just taking every extra activity you can find so all of my clubs are heavily centered around what I want to do later in life. I’d ultimately rather be happy than stress about not taking 20 aps haha.

White female, middle class, second generation college student (I don’t think that really matters)

Oh I plan to major in political science!

Thanks so much!!

Hi there I would love some help and any advice people can give! I’m in my later teens and I need help finding a bra that finally fits.

I followed a tutorial at home to size myself and my band was a 28 (closer maybe to 29) and my bust was a 32 (maybe 32.5) so I was told in the US my size is a 28 D.

I went to my local Dillards because I was informed they carried a few 28 inch band size bras. Currently I just suck it up and wear a 32 B push up and it fits pretty nice besides the stupid band size.

I tried on about 6 28 D bras and I felt that my breasts were being flattened by the bra. I’m honestly so uneducated on bras, I just discovered I could find band sizes below 32 today. If they’re being flattened does that mean the bra fits well, am I just used to gapping?

I’m not sure if it helps but I’m about 5’5 and 110lbs with a smaller frame.

I would love love love help!

I’d also love to provide any extra information people might need to answer my question!!

(I know I’m kind of flat compared to some women but I have a little bit of natural cleavage and it was just getting absolutely flattened by these bras)
