College (Or applying to it rather)

  • College has always been a prestige factor, especially among immigrant families. I'm going to be applying for college but it terrifies me, because I know I won't live up to expectations. I have two majors that I like, but I really wanted to be a lawyer, I don't think I can afford it :(. Today's Ivy Day. Admissions has been crazy this year because of test-optional. Is anyone else nervous about applying? Can anyone who's been through the process give me some advice?

  • Wow this seriously helped! I'm grateful to have the opportunity to even go to college but I'm terrified. I feel like I've never truly succeeded at what I liked. I figure skated but gained weight which caused an injury. I was not a gymnast despite my best tries. I study but I'm not the most stellar student at my school, I did dance but I had to quit for timing reasons. My parents really want me to go to a good college, and I really want it too. I've made lists and everything but I can't help feeling worthless, because my top school is going to be like 4% RD for my major. (Not an ivy just crazy test-optional admissions) I just want to make my family proud.

  • Did you write your essay + do enough service hours, clubs, sports, etc?

    I'm not applying yet, but I've picked out a prompt and brainstormed several essay ideas. I think I did enough service hours. The thing that bugs me is that I had a sport but quit in 8th grade because bad environment/couldn't lose weight. I have enough service hours. I did clubs, ran one at my school, but my extracurriculars are lacking for my competitive major, and I have few awards. I have time to fix that though, so I'll work on that.

  • I think what's more important is the major, choose something you are really interested and you won't give up bc in my case i wasn't accepted to what i wanted to study so i'm annoyed everyday when i see my subjects lol and i eventually messed up

    Yeah, slight dilemma rn. I wanted to be a STEM+ Humanities double major and go to Law School but our financial situation probably won't allow that. So, I'll have to do a STEM major (which I like but am not as amazing as others are because I learned later) which is very competitive in admissions.

  • Agree that it's important to like what you're studying. I mean, of course there will be 'white' and 'black' situations, but It's much more intresting and easier to learn when you are truly interested and involved in your subject.

  • I myself studied to be a lawyer and was very nervous before exams. Don't worry, everyone goes through it. Just like, perhaps, everybody has to ask for help sometimes. For example, I turned to the guys of this resource to write an essay. They did everything efficiently and quickly. Good luck to all!
