    Maybe a memorable line for the acceptance essay at the end could be. I hope I didn't sound cringy. Great advice in this video. As you get more experience in life you will conceptualise tasks more and you will miss feeling one of your tasks without preconceived notions. Looking back at your letter maybe overtime you feel that way to it.

    Some students are able to earn admission to schools like Stanford and Harvard with very average applications if they convey enough passion through their essays. It is possible but highly unlikely.

    Thank you Amy! Also what do you think about Caltech REA?

  • @wamyy5

    @wamyy5

    Жыл бұрын

    Happy to help! I think REA is an interesting new option - it seems that someone who applies REA has a better chance of getting in than applying regular decision and then if you get in, you don’t have to worry about any other applications! On the other hand, it would be difficult for students who would like to apply early but where Caltech isn’t their first choice. Not sure if that helps haha 😅
