Amen! Jesus bless you, it brought a smile to my face when I heard you say "all the schools I got into were a blessing"! May the Lord continue to prosper you!!
That list of extracurriculars just went on and on damn. Really inspired me to pick it up this year. I may not know you but I am definitely proud of your accomplishments. Keep it up.
You're an amazing student...stats, scores n all, but your love for God is what makes you stand out. 👍Wow! So impressed!👏👏👏👏 I thought of Daniel 1:8-9!🙌👍🏻🙏🏼
@@MasonGoodwyn Thanks for the response! BTW, do you think "academic achievements" like topping your state or qualifying a national scholarship exam should be included as ECs, or should they be separate?
First off, congrats on all of your acceptances! Secondly, since most schools were test optional this year, did you decide to send your SAT scores to all of the schools you applied to? Thanks
Thanks! I decided to send the schools my SAT scores to all the schools I applied to since they are very competitive and I need anything to help my admissions file.
Oof. I've had straight As in honors and standard classes until junior year. Im doing tennis/a tutoring program for immigrants/honors+dual enrollment college courses/and plan to do more clubs and services. It still feels like I'm behind everybody else no matter how hard I work but I'm still hopeful
You absolute goat. I live in the same county, haha. I'm looking into a lot of colleges that you got into, like Wake Forest and UNC and UVA. Do you have any tips?
1. Start on your essays early, make sure you do not write about generic topics 2. Still take the SAT, ACT, and AP Tests and get the highest score possible 3. Try to have activities around your major 4. Find the right teachers to write a special recommendation for you, you would have to find these teachers earlier before you apply 5. Apply to a good amount of colleges, atleast 10, a mix of safety, target, and reach schools Best of luck man and God bless you 🙌🏾👍🏾
I am so scared now 😭 I am not shooting for an ivies but my dream school is an ivy, UPenn, so I was trying to see if I had a chance… I am a freshman in highschool and my grades are so bad rn 💀 My grades: Hon. French 4: A+ AP U.S History: A- Hon. Geometry: B Hon. English 9: A- Physical Ed: A+ Hon. Biology: A Ceramics: A+ I am planning on focusing mainly on math next quarter so my semester grade can be an A, so I can finish off the semester with a 4.0 🙏
These videos are nice man. I know I’m late but I just had a question if you could answer it in whatever way you know. Basically I’ve dropped all my sports now (I’m a sophomore in high school). I’m lined up for a heavy dose of AP courses the next two years, and am I’m the national honors society. I also have a summer job I’ve kept for three years and will likely continue with through high school, as well as a few hobbies I’m very passionate about but don’t do competitively. Do you think this is enough extracurricular activity to get into a place like UVA. It’s my top school at the moment and was wondering if I should pick up something like student government in my junior and/or senior year. Thx
Hey Mason! I am a high school senior who is filling out the application for Georgetown. I was wondering if you submitted your SAT and ACT score, or just your SAT score?
Congratulations on your academics. My younger brother just graduated from high school this year in May. Great job with the video. I will be getting my AA degree next year in the spring. After I complete my AA degree in general studies, I will be in a BA program for radio television and journalism. I have been studying at a community college for 6 years. You should take a look at my stats video from this year in April in that way you can get to know about me. I am a military child, so I moved from state to state from age 5 through 21. During my high school experiences, I did not take APs nor honors courses due to my move. I was born in the west side of New York. I lived there for 5.5 years. I lived in 5 different states for 2-3 years, Virginia for 6-7 months, and Puerto Rico for a year. For right now, I’m living in Florida. I have been living in Florida for 2 years. Again, you did a great job with the video. I grew up with Individual Educational Plan (IEP) due to my diagnosed with autism at age 3. Wish you are the best at university wherever you go. God bless you and your family. 🙏
Thanks for the long comment! Congrats on getting your AA soon, I know it can be hard being a military child since I have military friends. You journey sounds very impressive, I wish you the best for your future and God bless you!
I'm surprised you were accepted into those schools with those stats, despite the extracurriculars you had. Students in my junior class feel like they don't have a shot at ivy-level schools with SATs of 1500+, rank top 10/1000 (above average district), extracurriculars through the roof... Could you make a video talking your essays? Do you think that had a major impact on your acceptances?
For anyone who’s feeling down: Romans 8:18 “The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that is coming!” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Whatever is going on right now, have faith, your situation will get better. :) Jesus bless anyone reading this and have a great day!!🥰✨💖
Mason Goodwyn Aha I’m playing with you man. Congratulations! You seem like a great guy and have a lot headed for you. I’m from NC and had some buddies go to Wake Forest last year and they loved it.
Lol your extra curricular activities list was interesting...I sadly spent the whole of my 11th grade and half of 12th grade in online classses...so the only extra curricular activities I can put are from 9 and 10 🥲
Amen! Jesus bless you, it brought a smile to my face when I heard you say "all the schools I got into were a blessing"! May the Lord continue to prosper you!!
bro wtf this weird asf 😭
@@khun9237 bro even if you don't believe in god respect people with other believes.
@@youssefbadawy7135 i literally do and this is still weird asf 😭😭 mfs who make religion their whole personality have no life
Amen

Thanks man! All those extracurricular activities were just a blessing from God!
God bless you man, love how you gave God the glory in the beginning! Keep it up!
God works wonders man 🙌🏾, God bless you 👍🏾
You're an amazing student...stats, scores n all, but your love for God is what makes you stand out. 👍Wow! So impressed!👏👏👏👏 I thought of Daniel 1:8-9!🙌👍🏻🙏🏼
Congrats! This makes me excited for the application process because those acceptance rates look mighty small, but this should be a great opportunity.
Thanks! Trust in God and he will lead the way!
Back with another one! I love to see it! 🙌🏽👏🏽👌🏽
Thanks 🙏🏾 My Day 1 Supporter 🙌🏾

Great video! What did you write your essays on?
Thanks, I appericate it. I might have to make a future video on what type of essays I did! Subscribe to see my future videos!
Nice video! What’s your major at Duke?
Major: Business Anatlytics, Check insta for college tho
Bro, do you think it is your Extracurriculars which got you in? Like soo many good ones wtf! Great job
The internship definitely stuck out the most, but having them all on the same resume gave a positive effect overall 🤝
@@MasonGoodwyn Thanks for the response! BTW, do you think "academic achievements" like topping your state or qualifying a national scholarship exam should be included as ECs, or should they be separate?

@@MasonGoodwyn thanks, bro. I'm a rising senior debating whether or not I should send my SAT scores to the ivy's. This helps a lot!
*I did not commit to Duke, but a video on my final decision will be posted very soon. Please subscribe so you won't miss it!

could you make a video on how you created your resume for college applications? It would be really helpful! ^^
I am so scared now 😭 I am not shooting for an ivies but my dream school is an ivy, UPenn, so I was trying to see if I had a chance… I am a freshman in highschool and my grades are so bad rn 💀
My grades:
Hon. French 4: A+
AP U.S History: A-
Hon. Geometry: B
Hon. English 9: A-
Physical Ed: A+
Hon. Biology: A

I am planning on focusing mainly on math next quarter so my semester grade can be an A, so I can finish off the semester with a 4.0 🙏

I would focus on getting leadership positions now and I would do student government also, it couldn’t hurt
Hi Mason- Great video; thanks for sharing! Btw, out of all the AP classes- did you only take four exams? :) What is your major at Duke? :)
I took more than four exams, but only submitted my best scores which applied to my major of Econ or Business Analytics
Did you submit your sat scores?
Congrats dude! Can you talk about how you landed an internship at Lockheed Martin?!
Thanks! I'll definitely have to make a video on that!
That's some crazing weighting. At my school a 4.0 would be a 4.1 in an honors class, and a 4.33 for AP.
no, 4.5 for honors and 5.0 for AP is the norm across most schools.
OMG WE HAVE THE SAME SAT (I got a 32 on act btw)
Do you respond to questions on insta ?
Yeah, just follow me and ask a question on insta 👍🏾
Wow you're so bright! 😯
Could you explain how you got that cybersecruity internship I really want one because I want to be a computer science major.
Make a video on your essays
I might do that soon
Bro what is the intro song
I dm you about it!

Did you apply to all of your schools with your SAT?
Yes
I’m trying to get into uva too
R u in state or out of state?
@@MasonGoodwyn in state
I think your extracurricular activities help you got into Duke while your test score not being the top 1 percent.
Yo I’m back
YESSIR
How do you remember everything you've done in highschool or is it all on your transcript ?
I compromised a resume of all the activities, clubs, and sports I did over the years. I started my resume at 10th grade to remember these things
@@MasonGoodwyn okay, thanks !

I’ll definitely have to look into that for future vids
Please be my math tutor😭
I could try 😂😂

Remember that without your faith in Jesus you certainly wouldn’t have gotten this far.
