Disclaimer: Obviously this is all just speculation, I have no idea why the heck the college admission boards let me in (their mistake). I recognize how lucky I am to be able to attend university and have such valuable educational opportunities. Sorry if I seem braggy I was just excited to get accepted :) I know the schools I applied to aren't in the ivy league or anything but I was still pretty hype. Not sponsored.

unweighted is without ap boost, correct?
Marsi Makarski yes

I’m in middle school and I already feel stressed out lol
Audrey Angle uhh if your stressed now what the hell are you gonna do when you enter high school😂😂
relax, you have years left so enjoy em youre good
I suggest you take AVID in high school tho, they help good with the application processes
I didn’t think about any of this stuff until I graduated high school and I totally regret it :)
Audrey Angle same
“My school forgot about me” I felt that so hard omg
My mom enrolled me in my middle school in like June and we went back like 3 days before school started and they lost the papers so my mom had to like do them all again lol, my school forgot me too
ahhhhh it’s my junior year and im so nervous (prob should be studying tbh)
Ahhh same girl
same yikesss
same lmao E
I can relate...
SAME. Like. I want to get it over with and do them now but at the same time I want to put it off as long as possible😂😂
What if u deadass have no talents or passions and nothing interesting about your life literally rip when I need to apply to schools next year
Rachel lmao same ^^
ugh me too honestly
Truee
I had the exact same problem with that too! Just be real and be you! One of my friends wrote a whole essay on not knowing what her passions were and she excelled with that. I will have a video up on my channel in a couple of weeks about this very topic!
Same
Am I watching this when I’m a freshman, yes
Do I regret it, no
Lilly gooorl me to
im going into freshman year this year
Lilly same dw 😂
samee
Haha right
I can’t believe your school forgot to send your transcripts!!! That’s so triggering!!
Carolyn Grace Marie this actually happens A LOT. When I was applying to JMU, my school also forgot to send in my transcripts. But it turned out okay because I go there now.
so fun fact I was in one of sydney's classes and I got to hear this whole story unfold. I felt so bad for her every single time she talked about it since I knew how hard she worked for it.
Happened to me too, but they emailed me in time so I just sent mine
this sorta made me feel better bc every video i watched regarding college was like some super super like “i only took the sat once and got a 1550 and didn’t really try” and here i am studying my butt of just to barley make a 1200
Some people just have an inborn ability lol
You and me both. For the PSAT I got an 1190 and imma study my butt off to get that sweet goal line of 1250 on the actual test so that the universities can look at me as a somewhat competent student. My GPA has been holding on to that 3.5 but Idk if I can hold it. Hopefully I do.
I too got into every University I applied to. Granted I only applied to one school but I technically got into every school I applied to
If you don’t mind me asking, did you take advanced classes in highschool? Do I have to take advanced classes to get accepted to a good college?
@@claire-hz7ks I got accepted into college with a 2.6, graduated with a 2.8 (all normal classes) and still got $3 grand in scholarships per semester (the tuition is $8.2 grand a semester). Granted my school is a bit smaller so they were a bit more lenient.
Here's what you need to do: look at all the requirements to get into the schools you want and see if you meet them. For my school the requirement was either a 3.0 GPA or a 1000 SAT score (I got 1130). When I got accepted they basically said "your sat was great, your GPA is acceptable. Welcome"
four twenty thank you so much for responding and I have one more question, what did you get scholarships for? Congratulations on getting into your college and experiencing what you got to!
@@claire-hz7ks mine were from my SAT score and early admission (I got accepted before my senior year of high school started)
What was your s.a.t scores
Every college?! Girl! So smart! 😊❤️ I just graduated from university and loved every second! Also, I just found your channel and I’m loving your videos!
You loved every second? Im excited for college but what about the workload? Thats the only part im scared of
"im not an einstein in the making" *has a 4.2 gpa*
im a junior and this was super helpful, i also play field hockey for my school. I really wish i had seen this vid freshmen year. Thanks for the help!
I love this video I actually really am appreciative that you’ve posted it! Thank you xxx
Before 1k I go honesty love you're channel. She just a whole mood every day😭💞💗
You are my favorite college vlogger! You are the most down to earth and chill person I have ever seen on RUclips. Thank you for being so amazing!
BOY literally I relate so much. I am so effort based. I applied to UF and enjoyed watched this thank you so much!
i've been waiting for this video for so long
Hi...
omg I love you sydney I don't understand how u can be so mature but I still wouldn't mind just listening to ur certain type of humor all day I literally love you. best of luck in college❤❤
this was super helpful!! i’m a junior in high school and we’re doing a bunch of research on colleges in my ap lang class so we’re prepared and know how to apply as seniors in the fall. it’s extremely stressful and scary bc i’m definitely not ready to be an adult and i feel low key stupid and almost like i won’t be able to get into any colleges but i have similar grades to you so i’m feeling a lot more confident :) also you applied to 3 of the colleges i was really interested in going to so even more helpful :))
This was so helpful! Thank you so much!!! I will be an incoming senior this fall and I feel much better about the application process now.
hey girl i know this vid is old but it def made me feel more confident about college apps since we have like the same "personal stats" and you seem to be doing ok. just thank youu is all
Hope you love college! It's an amazing experience! x
Thanks for making this video! Its going to be so helpful in my application process 💞
Thank you for sharing your personal process. This video is very helpful. All the best to you!
Thank you for this video, you made my anxiety go down a little bit!
why do you have to pay for applying for a college 😔😔 they should be paying us for picking that college and stressed over writing essay
To make sure that your are serious and interested in what the school has to offer.
Me, who didn’t pay for any of my college applications: 😬
@@Colettegirouard only for them to reject us 💀
@@Momo_Games_RUclips how did you not pay for your application?
@@smexyangelmike3117 Probably fee waivers. That's what I'm hoping for when I apply.
I freaking love your hair 😍
As a senior thank you I needed this 😂❤️
youre amazing sydney!
I took the ACT 3 times: the first time I got a 19, the second time I got a 18, and the third time I got a 19 again...yeah my scores sucked but I was able to do Dual Enrollment due to my scores on the PERT test so yay!!
I love how you separated the video into portions. Great job into getting into the colleges!!!
Hi...
Thanks for sharing. Not too many young people would be brave enough to share their SAT's if they weren't happy with them. Hard work is what gets you anywhere and being articulate so you are going to do well.
this helps so so so so so so SOOOOO much! I'm currently taking an SAT study break and I've been freaking out abt college apps!!!
Judy C are you taking it August 25th ?
these videos are so helpful, and you somehow made a college video funny?!?!💗🤪
I can't take anything seriously #whoops
I’m a senior in high school and I am really excited for college this video helped a lot I think I’ll be apply to 5-6 schools just because I have application fee waivers for 2 of them and they are all in California.
I love Penn State! I haven’t actually gone to college yet, but i’ve done a lacrosse camp there and its really nice :)
love you sydney💕
I can't wait for you dorm room tour 😱💕😻😻😻😻😻
me too tbh. hopefully it's not ugly.
I bet it won't be ugly
I’m a senior this year and this really helps 😂😩 thank you queen!
Hi...
i literally don't go to high school until next year but i'm still watching college videos
You’re really funny I love your videos lol. I’m a senior this year and this video was super insightful and helpful for someone applying for college soon :-) I feel you on the SAT being lower due to of lack of studying. It’s tough to be motivated for that when you’re an effort based student to begin with (I am too lol). Good luck at Penn State!!
Hi...
I love how shes talking about her 1230 SAT score like "Oh its not that good, I could have tried harder" when I got a 950😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
820 over here bud
Psat 840 😭😭😭
bruhhh what happened lmao
I'm a freshman in high school and I took a random practice sat for fun and got a 1050 .-. hopefully I do better by senior year
Guys getting a good score is directly related to time spent studying. Princeton review was also super helpful
Our stats are the same and it makes me feel so so so good. Thanks so much for this vid
Step 1: apply to community college
i’m starting at penn state in the fall too!!
(Ik I'm late sry) I hope u guys are togheter that would be a dream lol.

tbh i wasn't going to click on this video bc i'm going to be a freshman this year and i don't want college stress already.. but then i remembered that i love sydney's videos bc of her humor and amazing editing so i watched it all the way through anyway! + i learned some things too so thank you sydney :)
this is probably gonna help me when i apply, thank you!
LOL why do I love her already and it's my first time on her channel...
I love this💕 so helpful thank you!
I originally had a google docs of all my collages but when you said you did an excel sheet, I realized that excel is so much better then a google docs
This video was super helpful! Thank you 😎🤠
We love an advice queen
I'm applying to PSU & I have almost the same GPA/SAT as you. This video gave me relief bc this application is stressing me out.
thank you for actually putting timeline where you tall about main key points
Ahh this is so helpful! Thank youuuu
I'm not going to college yet but I watched this video because Sydney made it 😘😂❤️💙💜
This is not related to the video but I just wanted to say that I love your personality☺️💛 also your videos and your editing❤️
Love your videos Sydney
Not gonna lie, I was so sad when u decided u weren’t gonna go to UF because I go there and I loveee your videos!! But I know you’re gonna love penn state!! Congrats💙💙
i live in ireland and this is so complicated compared to our schooling system and i have genuinely no idea what you’re talking about but hey i’ll watch anyways💓
Ok, that college grid is helpful stuff👌
Hi....
I’m in middle school but I still enjoyed this video💗
Early!!! ILY❤
im not even in hs yet but am i still gonna watch this ? yes
I just love your monotoned voice for some reason .🤷♀️
I'm on my senior year and I am panicking about college and this year's big exam. Applying for college is a big chonky blurry process and i just want to know every step of the process so i don't mess up argh my mind is killing me idek what to focus on these days... 😫 Your videos certainly helped me a little tho 😌❣️
i’m only in 7th grade but i’ve been watching a lot of videos about UCF because it’s been my dream to get in since 3rd grade and i have anxiety and social anxiety and UCF is a rlly big school but it’s my dream to go there and these videos make me feel worse and stressed out and i can’t stop watching them i want to be a real state agent when i grow up
Which state are you from because if you are from the same state as me along east coast (I can tell) almost every girl like you says they’re not smart but yet they actually have at least one honors class while I’m over here struggling to get into college prep classes
I love your videos❤ please upload more
Ur gonna slay college 🖤
im going to watch this again in about 3-4 years
Wow we have the same SAT score! That for some reason makes me feel a lot better.
so so helpful
We have the exact same sat score :D amazing gives me hope
oh my gosh you are so smart!!!
Daaaaamn that SAT score👌❤️
I’m a junior this year this helped a lot!!
i decided to cut my hair bc of u, ur perfect i love you
Hi...
how do u make those page things that like divided the sections but have cool shakey affects? idk if that made any sense but idk how else to describe it
9:35 you talking about effort based... that is ME! I’m naturally not too bright I just put in the effort and had similar stats to yours. Also I didn’t study like you but def should
IM SOOOOO HAPPY UR GOING TO PSU!!!!!!!!
ACT exam is more straightforward and the questions and the scoring is easier to understand. You can also average them together giving your composite, but the problem is that it’s a very time paced test!
This was awesome! Thank youu
Omg
Everything you said in this video sounds so stressful...I'm from Romania and application to college here doesn't sound so hard/terrifying
You have 2 options: you can go to colleges just using your grade from your final exam, or you can choose to take another exam (that's for colleges like medicine, low, police etc)
But it's pretty simple
All you have to do it's just study at the main classes or, if you're a weirdo like me, you can study at everything....
Anyway
I follow you since you started this channel
Somehow, at some point I forgot you're name
But fortunately, I found you again this year :))💕
hey! i need some advice. so, Im in 8th grade and am currently picking my highschool classes. I'm taking every other class honors, however I'm not so sure in math. I'm taking algebra 1 right now and the high school options for me is Algebra 2 and Honors Algebra 2. I have an 87 in my first marking period for math and an 89 in the second marking period. To take honors I need at least a 90. So, since I am not taking honors Algebra 2, will that affect my chances of getting into Penn State eventually? I know I sound crazy considering i'm only in 8th grade but I've always wanted to go to Penn State since I was little and I worry that this may affect my chances.
Omg hiii I’m early and so happy 💖😭haha ily
I only just finished 7th grade but I love these types of videos, although there is no need for me to watch them.
Man I hope I can get into a good college. Right now I’m finishing 8th grade and I’m most likely going to be taking multivariable calculus my freshman year and I’m also going to be advanced in science. I’m also going to volunteer at many camps and a frisbee camp in Israel.
Okay so, i did really bad my first two years of highschool, i failed one class each year and got mainly c’s or d’s and like one A but my junior year i got 4.0 all the way through, if i continue this will universities care about my first two years or?
