i’m preparing for the casper test and keep seeing so much different advice online.
what are some of the most common or actually useful tips you guys were given before taking it? especially anything you wish you knew before your first attempt. trying to figure out what advice is actually worth taking vs stuff that are repeated everywhere lolll....
I'm curious what advice people wish they receive before their first year. Could be about academics, making friends, time management, or anything else you think would be a valuable advice for incoming first years...
Don't be afraid to apply to schools you think are "out of your league."
When I was applying to universities in Canada, I almost didn't apply to UofT because I genuinely thought I had no chance. I convinced myself that I should just go somewhere "safer."
I ended up going to my high school counsellor for advice and she basically told me that there's nothing wrong to give it a try.
So I applied. And I got in.
Looking back, I'm really glad I didn't let my own doubts decide for me. I've had a great experience at UofT and gotten opportunities I probably wouldn't have had otherwise.
Obviously not everyone will get into their dream school, but don't take yourself out of the race before it even starts. Worst case, you get rejected. Best case, you surprise yourself.
