    Hey everyone thanks for all the engagement and questions! Quick thing: what questions & confusions do you have that you want me to create more videos on. I can answer them more comprehensively that way!
  • @user-wc4dg5fh3u
    You structured this video so well; got straight to the point, discussed the content to be explored, added chapters to section it into digestible parts, covered content concisely, summed up with a clear conclusion. I don't think I've ever seen a better YouTube video.

    manifestation works y'all!!!!!!! i remember watching this video last year, and now i'm getting ready to attend umich next month! tips i took away from this video and other college content: look at how you fit with the university's main mission / promotion of themselves (umich's was "Leader's and Best" and "Work Hard. Play Hard."), while also demonstrating how you will utilize resources on campus. Also, a tip is to write a list of positive qualities about yourself, and if your application isn't representative of that, show a way of expressing those in your essays. My main themes I wanted to show were community service, leadership, and being hard working in my activities/schoolwork, so I made sure everything reflected that. Good luck everyone!!!!!! (and yes ik umich isn't an ivy, but it's perfect to me ok!!)

  • @farahessrir6102

  • @mirari120
    Hi! I'm an international student from Canada and my school does not offer a rigorous cirriculum. No AP, IB, or honours classes. I also live in a rural area and do not really have the options financially to take those classes outside of school. Will I be okay with a 1560 SAT? Also, amazing video btw, thanks for the insight!
  • @whoosh1220
    Hi, Sorry I have a question. Im an international student from Japan from a school that is not known for uni abroad. Where should I mention the school's details and curriculum rigor? (Rec letters, additional information essay etc) Thanks!
  • @YouandI05
    Hey! I had an average high school GPA, but I took a gap year and scored 1500 on my SAT. I have an overall strong profile. Do you think my SAT score will make up for the average GPA? I am focusing on applying to Babson and UPenn specifically.
  • @discoversf
    wait if I took the IGCSEs and A levels would u still recommend me to take SATs?
  • @julias_always_dancing
    Heyyy💕❤️another South African girly here I’m so glad I came across your channel 😭I have a question , when a university talks about GPA in South African terms do they mean your final learners average or what I’m really confused
  • @normalperson8484
    How come we have to take SATs but not all international students😂
  • @unspoken_2007
    are you an international student? i also wanted to apply to fall 2025, but seeing massive layoffs in tech and also many articles have stated that internationals from elite ivies even with degrees in STEM havent been able to get a internship is this true? so should i consider coming over there as an international???
  • @pastry.024
    Hey you're from India right? so can u please tell me, that do we need to take AP classes, as here in schools we don't get them offered!!!
