    Wow!!! Everywhere I saw that most of the MIT applicants have super great ECs and stats, etc. that often demotivated and depressed me. But, by watching this video I realized that all that matters the most is how you express yourself in the essays and not super great stats or ECs. NO OFFENCE, though... I am really glad to watch this video. Thanks!!

    thank you so much for making this! the thought of applying to college, especially to schools like MIT, makes me kinda wanna throw up. my first two years of high school i didn't have access to a lot of (pretty much any) of the resources i was seeing other people with. when i was able to transfer schools my junior year i felt crazy behind on extracurriculars and classes, especially because me transferring limited the classes i could take. Your video made me feel so much better about what i've done with what i have and made me see the value in myself, even if i wasn't a nobel prize winner or something. again, thank you so so much 🤍

    They have a holistic review, try to explain to colleges extenuating circumstances or challenges that prevented you from acheiving your full potential, and also how you did/are overcoming them. There are a lot more things besides gpa and sat. Get involved in your community etc... if you are completing your freshman year, don't worry, you still have a long way to go, and colleges understand when people trip and fall. It's getting back up and into the game without matters. IVY Leagues don't mean much, do well and your future employers will seek you out♥️
