hi guys!!

I'm about to take ap cs/data structures at tj as a sophomore so i'm wondering if anyone has the materials so i can take a look at the topics beforehand.

Actually lowkey some might be popular but 🤷‍♀️

1. Jenny is overhated but she really was a product of her environment and will always be iconic

2. Nate is a predator

3. sorry but Serena's cotillion dress was lowkey overrated

4. if i was Louis I would have snapped too

5. Dan became an annoying weirdo after season 1 and none of his friends should have forgiven him after the reveal

6. I love Chair but Chuck and Eva was the better pairing realistically

7. Vanessa is overhated (except for the juliet storyline)

8. Rufus is genuinely a loser for sleeping with Ivy and taking care of her after she scammed his wife's family

9. Alison sucks as a partner and a parent

10. The whole Ben and Serena thing was an ick

NSFW: self-harm, suicidal ideation mention

Context: I'm 16f. My dad is 48. My mom is 50 . My brother is 23. We immigrated from China when my brother was 4. My dad left to work abroad when I was 12 and my brother was already in college. My brother refuses to accept how bad our parents are because he got the good version of them when my dad lived with us and my mom wasn't such a bitch.

Here we go. My mom is so fucking annoying. She has no grasp of concepts like manners or emotional intelligence. She'll just sit there and chew her sunflower seeds, watching Cdramas 24/7, complaining about how I don't study and I spend all my time on my art. When art is literally something she pressures me to get awards and win comps in. My grades arent even bad and I go to a STEM high school. Her vents are just repetetive paraphrased versions of "I do so much for you like I am a slave. And you treat your poor mom so bad. You lazy always doing stuff on your computer (I'M LITERALLY STUDYING)". My brother was some gift from heaven or something because he always got A's at this high school so I'm basically a fucking disappointment and my mom doesn't forget to remind me. She's actually the dumbest person alive. She doesn't understand basic emotional intelligence like how to read a room or to talk to someone. When she found out about me harming myself she played the victim and talked about how I was trying to get her arrested and how she's gonna pull me out of my STEM school, but she's the one who would be mad if I didn't go there. Every single argument, there is no line she won't cross. She'll bring up people from school who I'm no longer friends with and cite a whole ton of reasons why they're no longer my friend (I dont study, I'm a heartless bitch, I'm stubborn, etc). She's also so NOISY. When we go out in public, she'll be yelling without any awareness of her volume about everything. When I don't want to go in public with her, she'll blame how I'm a stupid American child because once she read that foreigners think Asian people are loud. She'll fly into rages out of nowhere and have bad mood swings. she NEVER shows affection. Sometimes I'll try to hold her arm while walking and she'll throw me back a couple of meters with full force. I largely think the acceleration of her bitchy behavior is due to menopause, which she refuses to admit.

My dad is genuinely a petty cowardly mean girl. He agrees with everything my mom says during shouting matches but he constantly badmouths her to me all the time about how she's messy, noisy, doesn't turn him on, etc. Things that a kid should not be hearing from their parents. When I'm not around (OR EVEN IF I AM) he'll use me as a bad example to my family friends. He'll make snide facetious remarks when we're alone about how it's ok not to end up at an Ivy because some people just aren't born smart. He'll bully me like an actual mean girl then complain about how I never talk to him on WeChat.

I can't talk to anyone about it because my mom seems perfect to outsiders. Even my brother thinks their behavior is acceptable. Once I tried talking to him but he just says stuff about my academics and how my mom just wants the best for me and that she's right. It's so unfair- he got the better version of them.

My life is living hell with my mom and the only reason I'm haven't hung myself yet is because I might actually end up at a good enough school and be stable enough to one day go NC with them forever. The only thing that lets me calm down is the vision of my parents in a nursing home.

hey 👋 I'm currently a rising junior at TJHSST.

I've had a couple A minuses in my transcript but in freshman year I took AP Precalc BC and ended semester 1 with an A and semester 2 with a B. I also had a B+ in freshman biology.

Do grades really matter? For ECs I did research with uni professors, a couple robotics-related clubs, and marching band (alto sax).

Everyone else seems to have better grades compared to me so I'm kinda nervous.

Is this horrible for getting into t20s and ivys?
