👍🏽
+1 extracurricular
when u gonna do part 3 bcz i just discovered u and im going to start applying this month. I sent u an email of my application and any feedback would be appreciated.
Pratik is it okay if I tried to get an internship at the hospital near my house but they rejected me cause I wasn’t 16 during my freshman summef
Sending dad the acceptance letter is crazy 💀💀
If I were an admission officer I would definitely do that😂
Bro cooked the first dude 💀💀
i can FEEL the first guy's tension after watching this lol
I refuse to believe all these applications are real
As someone who goes to a high school where academic and advanced courses have the widest gap of difficulty between them, the 3.8 is completely understandable lol. Some teachers at my school just make it impossible to get As and have ruined multiple students in the running for valedictorian to the point parents have complained
nah high school easy, you just have to prioritize it and lock in during school and a couple hours after school. issue is that a lot of people don't rly care abt it until too late (happened to me) and they're screwed for college apps
high school can be really hard for many people, especially for those who found what they want to be in the future. For me, I used to ignore coding competitions for good GPA (because I genuinely thought I'm not capable). But when I found out I could win prizes (accidentally won a second prize and gold medal in citywide contests), it was really hard to balance between focusing for national contest and good GPAs. One might have to prioritize one, or have great discipline (its important but I'm bad at it :(( ) For an average person, many many late nights might be needed
And yes, the teachers you get are important too. I once get a dumb teacher who gives problems from topics that's not even in the official curriculum, and mark assignments he never gave. I honestly dont know how he became a teacher in my school (it was a prestigious one in my city).
lol still definitely depends on the teacher sometimes@@zephyrflame
My grades this term were all A's and A+s except for a single B+ in English.
I am lucky to have gotten that B+ as well she literally failed half the class and the highest anyone ahs got on any assignment so far was a 90%
Yeah, it's not that easy. My brain just refuses to accept algebra, and our teacher doesn't bother explaining it better 😭
imagine the reaction of Abdula"s dad after getting an acceptance letter🤣😂
lol 🤣🤣
this was actually really funny, and I feel bad for laughing so hard because some of these entries were def genuine efforts and I cant blame them, but its so goofy 😭😭😭but this is a really good "what not to do" video. Im pretty sure Im still gonna die on college apps tho, so these guys are not alone. Best of luck to everyone applying! 🥳🥳🥳🥳
please the section titles are killing me, "who tf wrote this" 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Bro is the Gordan Ramsay of college apps 💀
This video is probably the funniest college apps reaction video I've even seen lmao
I know this episode boutta be crazier than the homeless guy hiding in the harvard chem lab 203
I love pratik videos, He always makes me laugh. But he also makes me realized how screwed I am jajaja. I'm from Perú (South america), I graduated from high school in 2021. My school didnt offer much oppotunities specially for usa standarts, No ap classes, few activitiess and competitions (specially international), I didnt even know what the hell was weighted gpa, sat, college essay, school counselor and the whole admission process until now(Here you just take an exam and pay). My grades were bad because I was too lazy and now I regret it.
However, I was never stupid, I took the chances I got or made my own. I'm a music producer and multi-instrumentalist completely selft taught, I made a podcast and shared news in 2021 about the lasting political crisis of my country. I won the entreprenaurship fair of my school, participated in debates, mun, sports, english certificates and I was know among my teacher and the school for that.
I want to study abroad because I wanna have those opportunities, meet people all around the world and be among the best. I'm aware that my chances are low but fugg it I can either try or not do anything
youre going places, you have a unique experience and are clearly very self-motivated and entrepreneurial. you can do this!!!!!!!
What’s the name of your podcast? Sounds like an interesting listen!
oe causa, pasa tu numero, estamos en las mismas
also applying to usaaa babyy
literalmente yo
me hubiera gustado participar en concursos cheveres pero mi colegio no ofrecía
recien me di cuenta cuando ya estaba por terminar
People would fake the application if there is $50 on the line
Yea, it’s so easy to just lie to earn the $50, especially since it’s not a college application so if they’re somehow caught there’s really no adverse effects.
yea fr
6 MIL SCORE ON SUBWAY SURFERS‼‼‼🗣🗣🗣💯🔥🔥
Bro leaked abdulias email 💀
LMAOOOOOO this video got me dying bro this is mad entertaining and very helpful at the same time!
I was the UPenn ed one the first one of the video I completely understand if my application is not at that level yet but I am trying my hardest with the small to little opportunities offered at my school if you see this if there is any way I can make this better please comment below and respond to this message thank you
Hey sorry to respond (I’m not pratik obviously) but u think I can help a bit. I’m a freshman in high school, so not the same, but I know quite a bit about college admission since I’ve been seeing videos like this, and I also just go out and see college websites etc to find out more about them! I
You see the thing wrong with ur application (as pratik already said in the vid) is a few things. For the level of schools ur aiming for, 3.9 GPA is like basically the minimum! I don’t know how ur school works, but in mine, u need to get a grade of 90 or above to qualify for an A, which basically gets u a 4.0 UW gpa. This, to me, is very reasonable as even by paying good attention in class, you can learn most content easily, so I don’t really understand why ur struggling to even get a 3.9! Maybe ur school grades diff but that’s just my opinion.
Basically the best thing I can say is to make sure u have MINIMUM of 3.9 UW GPA. I currently have a 4.0 UW (4.6 ish W), and I don’t even study for much (ik I’m a freshman and not a junior, but that’s no excuse to perform badly)!
I have a lot more to say, but don’t want to make run on comments, but basically the idea (as pratik said) is to have a stellar gpa, 2-4 amazing extracurriculars (as in one’s that u enjoy and that ur very good at/you can win many awards/competitions etc), and also good essays and LoRs ( which u can honestly get just by being a nice person and interacting a lot with teachers.
@@advikthepianokid4583 bro what? ik most schools do GPA differently but a 3.9 UW GPA is not bad at all. If it was weighted then yea, a 3.9 really sucks, but unweighted thats literally all As with maybe one or two B+s. No college is ever gonna reject you for having one or two B+s on your transcript, especially if you’ve taken multiple AP or IB classes, or do dual enrollment. I would say anything above a 3.8 is decent enough, having a 4.0 UW is nice but it won’t make or break your application. Weighted GPA is far more important anyway, since it takes course rigor into account.
@@paperyape it’s an uw gpa I’m pretty sure I’m like over the 4.1 weighted if I’m not mistaken
As a gap year student, you cant just wake up and study for 10 hours for the fuckin sat. Ignoring the fact that anyone would burn out after two days of that bullshit, you have to be busy during the gap year with jobs or activities so that colleges know you’re not screwing around. In the end, youre basically as busy as a high school senior, just with different things to do
THIS
dawg you’re telling me you can’t just study 2 hours a day for the sat and get like a 1500 after a couple practice tests on the weekends 💀💀
Yo if youve ever had the displeasure of hearing a blue jay cry, you would know how HORRIBLE they are. Imagine a bunch of hawks creating this ear-splitting sound. You won't get them in portland, but in the midwest (specifically central illinois) they especially suck. Also, that college essay is lowkey fire
this video was so funny not me crying the whole time 😆 (Side note: Im a sophmore in highschool currently and I love your channel! I've so far been using your tips and it's really helping in school so I wanted to say thank you.)
the ego this guy has 💀
That essay sounds AI generated fr
12:00 Got me laughing uncontrollably for some reason 🤣

I once dreamt about those Universities. But after watching your videos, I think I should just give up on it. Because, compared to my background, extracurriculars like research, the Olympiad, etc. are not difficult, they are literally impossible for us. I wonder if any of my teachers have ever been involved in any research work. Preparing for the SAT and IELTS is difficult enough without any mentors or guidance and most people don't even know about those exams. I should just stop daydreaming.
the students who have crazy work experience and national level awards will get into these exclusive colleges, that’s true, but a lot of the students at Ivy League schools don’t have those awards or research projects - it’s at least worth a shot to apply! you won’t lose anything, and you still have a chance
@@floslafleur Thanks
Nah you lose like $90 application fee and thats for 1 college
Good. Staying in your lane and being humble is far better for you than shooting for a near impossibility
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take! If applying is a financial burden Id think it twice but just keep pushing and working hard even if you don’t make it in the end at least you did the best you could. Doing all these miscellaneous things at the end of the day should be things you love doing not just things you rack up for college, that’s just a bonus :)
I really enjoyed and laughed a lot!
Poetry major 💀 💀
heheheha!

This was so hilarious
A 3.8 GPA definitely does not lock you out of UPenn's consideration. I've seen people with a 3.6 get accepted RD. Pratik's being a bit too strict here.

New video! Nice!!!!

Hi preaching p I am in 7th and taking Algebra one and am the highest performing math student in my grade for my small school. Everything seems so complicated I wish I had a blueprint, do x get into this school. Although I'm learning that does not exist. I don't know if I should go to math camp to do a lot of activities, focus on my activities, or even if I should worry about this now. PLEASE HELP.
don't stress on the parts that do not count toward your GPA (best advice from my asian parents and many more people)
try to enjoy ur journey and don't sweat it
in the 7th grade, try mostly to gain a healthy mindset, MAKE SURE U GET ENOUGH SLEEP, focus on improving ur brain logic and thats basically it
you might also need some friends too
just suggesting
the real grind started a few years ago in 8th grade summer, preparing for freshman 💪
good luck
Bro said Amma 😆
We need episode 3, especially before RD
Yo Prathik, we gotta get the stats and honors video
biggest crime committed by math nerd was not putting 3blue1brown on the list of math youtubers he watches
I am scared, I had to leave my school due to financial reasons so I can't even participate in competitions 💀
shit you sounded a lot like @PrimzOFFICIAL when you mocked that Indian mom tone lmao 😂😭
i hardly think explicitly shaming a college student's application essay is anywhere near helpful or necessary
Yo, That pure indian vibe you gave got me 😂😂 lmao
Only ec starting 11th is muat is this savable chat ? Hypothetically if i grind to a perfect sat score?
Perhaps not the best but you can definitely get a lot done in a year and your summer going into 12th. Join some clubs around a certain interest that aligns with your career goals or just a hobby and look to run for an officer position. You can easily pick up some volunteer opportunities just by going through the internet about your local area. Summer you should be pushing out those college apps but atp it would be good to have something, perhaps a regular part time job (which you can do junior year as well).
some highschool like my hs which doesnt offer honor class(no 1.05) it just ap courses and regular(i think regular is just honor levels). It is a very competitive hs. so a lower gpa is understandable. some hs curve wayyyy too much. isnt college gonna take into consideration of grade inflation?
Bro ong tell me how you tell your barber to cut ur hair I need that shi 😭😭
Listen buddy I’ll send you a decent one I think I got an interesting story. I was tested a few weeks ago I got tested for my reading, writing, and grammar. My results came back with some really low scores. I earned a 2nd percentile reading comprehension. Right now my worst part of my application is my ACT. I have not taken it yet. I am hoping to get 33 or 32. I have scored multiple 36s on practice test for math and my other scores are around 30s.
ayyyy btw crow noises is common where i live
Just letting you know. The second to last one goes to Roxbury Latin. It is a major ivy feeder. So even if he doesn't get into MIT he will prob get into an IVY. It is kind of annoying because when you look at students' resumes from Roxbury Latin and other Ivy Feeder Schools, their applications are not even that good but they still get in. I go to a private school in Massachusetts also, it is great in academics but really small and lots of ppl leave the school. Pls help Pratik or anybody else.
To be fair, I was Lily from Ohio (same ACT, same GPA, also took college classes in a foreign language, similar honors, similar extracurriculars, also from Ohio), and I got into my top choice college. If you're somehow reading this comment, Lily, you can do it- I believe in you!
how competitive is ASTRONOMY major?

Yo, i got some B's last year (freshman year), and was wondering how hard do I need to clutch now?
depends on your future ambitions
if you got like 2-3 Bs first year its alright ig, u still got 3 more years and you can do harder courses throughout those years, so just do better on those
Violated the first for no reason, it looks like he is really trying and getting out there and you put him down, even if your right, there is a much better way of saying things to uplift them than violating, outta here with your pompous clout chasing ahh, he that dude that no one thinks is funny but kept around so he can do your homework, goofy ahh 🤓
No seriously I’d be so nervous to have this guy as my college counselor he says shit so disrespectfully like maybe that person rlly tried their best in school 😭😭
Why are you so pressed lol
@@rarefishtycoon6430 you wouldn't be if a friend of yours is trying their best and someone craps on their efforts?
hey pratheek plz don’t clown me but i took the sat 3 times and my dumbass has to use 1350, although my gpa is 4.2 (like 11 AP/DE classes) and pretty solid extracurriculars/essays…do u think the sat score could really fk up my chances getting into a competitive school?
Yes 1350 means u gotta go test optional for every competitive school
Does P stand for prick?

Hi, so I live in a country and study in a school that does not offer AP exams. Calculus is not part of the high school curriculum here either, but I self studied for AP Calc BC and got a 4. I want to apply to MIT, but it only credits 5's. Should I send it in to show them that I challenged myself or not?
I cant
