Yale 2015, Freshman Year
This is basically my life at Yale: the things I find on my way to and from class, the moments that made me laugh and the times where I'm going to be complaining about classes. Bring it on, Veritas.
Also, feel free to ask questions. I actually love answering them. I'll be brutally honest.
Answer:
That would be awesome! Come off anon and we can try out something!
Harkness played Call Me Maybe. Again. There you go prefrosh.
You make me sad because I’ve come to realize that this means I’m old. But whatever, this means tons of free food :P
Anyways, Hi Prefrosh ;)
Answer:
I never said that they would get in. I told them to try. I see nothing wrong with at least applying. I don’t know what the rest of their application looks like and for all I know it could be incredible. And I do know people that had a C in their transcript or low SAT scores that are here. What I’m trying to tell these people is to not be discouraged by this one thing. A lot of kids think they need to be perfect to come here, and I just want to let them know that you don’t.
Answer:
hmm, this is an interesting question. especially for this blog…… Well for starters, it’s actually totally normal. I mean, sure it was weird the first time it happened (like 7th grade? lol), but then you realize it always happens. Take it as a compliment lol. And yes, I keep dancing.
Answer:
Don’t completely rule Yale off. I would still encourage you to apply. Maybe you can use your essay to speak about that grade and defend yourself as to why it was such a struggle. Think of your application as a whole. Your grades are one section, but there’s so much more. Try to use the rest of your application to boost up that one fault. Good luck! :
