Just bombed the June sat and def retaking in the fall. I’m doing bac gen. and I know there’s typically not a lot of free time but do u think I could get like at least 30-45 min of just solid study time everyday?
Hey everyone! I'm on the astrophysics track this summer, and I was just wondering if any alumni could answer how much free time you typically got each day (even if you were on a different track). The whole "you carve out your own free time" thing is freaking me out a little because I'm hearing some people say they hardly ever had free time while others are saying the work was really manageable. I get that it really depends on your own efficiency and time management skills, but I'm still wondering if you had enough time to work on other things like Common App even though I know the program discourages it.
My situation might be a little unique because I've already completed an advanced astronomy research class at a rigorous school (think New England prep school), but I still worry about how much time SSP will actually take out of my summer, especially since Junior summer is pretty intensive.
Thank you so much!
This might be a dumb question but I was wondering if SSP carves out any time on Sundays for religious practices such as attending Church/Mosque/Temples or even praying 5 times a day as I know Muslims usually do.
what do i do? long story short i applied, got shortlisted -> waitlisted -> off watilist into biochem @ guelph, selected apply for financial aid so they paused my enrollment...
my mom makes 0 and my dad makes bank but im a tax dependent on my dad so he had to fill out the financial aid info, but he didn't do it and i also thought there was no point bc he PAYS 100-200k in taxes. You might be like oh why isn't he paying for it then he can easily - yes i know he can easily, he won't n idk why, but tbh idk how good ssp is even at that because it's been falling off. also committed to harvard sri so im hoping to get the research paper n not lit review
so, what do i do?
This is mostly just curiosity but I also would like to know how much of an impact SSP has in college applications (if you believe it was strong enough to become a deciding factor). And if you applied through QuestBridge, pls lmk how that went as well!
