    From all the nursing friends i've made, they said that going to CC didnt change anything! Just don't slack off and keep ur grades way up high! Volunteer work and having a bunch of hours and experience in the field before apps will save you! They would rather take more actual exp than grades, but if u do both, then even better!

    Hey Charlee!! I’m really nervous about going to community. It’s my first time and I start Monday. I’m moving away from home that’s about 2 hours away from home. I’m sad as is leaving all my family and friends behind. I’m worried that it will be hard to make friends at community college. I heard it’s harder to make friends at community vs making friends at a university or so. What would you recommend on how to make friends that you actually get close with. And was it hard for you?

  • @CharleeNguyen
    @CharleeNguyen11 ай бұрын

    I actually found that making friends on community colleges were easier! I would just join school clubs and participate. For example, I joined student council and watched all of the clubs, so I HAD to get to know the other club leaders and participants. The hardest part is just doing it! Doing that forces you to talk to ppl and that's how I made my friends! It's scary at first but it works every time and less scarier than approaching ppl randomly. Since in clubs, you're going to have to like the ppl since you'll be around them

    TY for the awesome video! To each their own in terms of college choices...I do have my own to add if I may...My father(We're Korean) attended USC for his bs then to Columbia for his MBA ... My Uncle attended MIT as chem Engineer major... By time I reached High School Age we had chance to sit down to discuss my "academic future"....This is what Dad and Uncle had to say on the whole thing, and not what you're expecting to hear😆.... "OVERRATED & Bull Sh#!" Yup those were their exact words ...Most Asian parents are duped and obsessed with top tiers and Ivy as my Grandparents were...My Uncle said unless you're that geeky weirdo who just loves academia and can't get enough of it and wealthy too then more power to them..Otherwise, he said I should focus on enjoying my time in High School while learning taking in as much as I can without being obsessed about getting that grade or doing all the cookie cutter top students do , accordingly he states that he wasted his time doing alll the "this will get me into MIT stuff, He emphasized grow and learn more of yourself as a teen , and sure put in the work for class , but as they say Don't miss the Forest for the Trees...... My Dad was no different, he said he was brainwashed into thinking obtaining the best numbers and doing all the tedious things that looks good on the application ...According to him even those that made it to Harvard and Stanford "mickey-Moused" non profit projects that only made them look good and as soon as they turned in their app it all stopped and left it all hanging high and dry ... Wealthy parents were spending tens of thousands on Mentors, Consultants, and private tutors from those colleges ... At the end of the day it turned into a shallow Beauty Pageant of who gets into what school for the mainly Asian students ... My Uncle hates his major and preferred that he just attended a simple Calstate in different major....My Dad thumbs his nose at his major , a complete waste of money...They gave me the best plan as soooo...... I didn't take the SAT/ACT or even apply after my 11th... I enjoyed my time taking it easy at my high school...I still managed to get high grades for the sake of learning ....Most my Korean and Chinese (LOL) classmates got accepted to numerous Ivy... BUT rejected to the school I ended up attending , which I will get to.... Soon after graduating I continued to be involved in my passion projects FOR ME... I attended my local City College for FREE and needed up transferring to UCLA(All my classmates except 1 got accepted to) to attend for FREE , I live in Los Angeles btw AND my Dad didn't claim me on his TAXES ....I got to travel and work and gained more life experience as well as coming of age... From my 17year old self I absolutely was clueless about life compared to being 21...I can tell you that I had the best time of my life right after high school in the real working world, and not being tossed into a class where an old Phd Professor shoves their say down your throat ... I have a greater appreciation for Academia as matter of fact ... Hell my professors comes from top IVY so I don't know what the fuss is all about to attend them... At end of day Im debt free and doing exactly what I figured what I wanted to do in my 20s...By time in my 30s Im sure it will continue to evolve .. Anyways TY and much success to all!
