Wow this is a really comprehensive overview of the college admissions process. My son and I have been watching/reading countless sources for insights. This video really gave us some new perspectives on how to approach his college campaign in the Fall.

8:54 that last part is really true, my AP Gov teacher tracks where students at my school got in each year and i found a lot of trends. Among the top students (roughly top 25ish), getting into UCLA/Berkeley was pretty easy, USC was also relatively attainable, and one interesting thing I saw if almost every other year a kid would get into stanford (granted they usually top 5 or higher)

[jayla]

ugh😭. This video is helpful, but I’m deciding to go test optional since I didn’t prep well for the tests and all the seats are full for the incoming tests…

[HopeChan-xd]

Thanks for sharing such insightful perspectives!

[jujudada]

Great video! Thank you for sharing. Can you explain a little bit more about how to demonstrate interest during the application process?

[xopernicus]

What if you had dire circumstances like not having a reliable place to stay (bouncing place to place) and not having resources to do school work that led to a lower gpa. Could a higher sat / act score help?

[YourHealthGuide-rd]

What would this GPA margin be for a university like Brown that emphasizes grades? 3.5? 3.7?

[emmalpez]

How much of an impact do AP scores have? I have scores ranging from 3-5, but would submitting a 3 negatively impact my application?

[karadumont]

How do you get the trends from the previous year if the most recent CDS from schools is the from the HS class of 2023 and the CDS for the hs Class of 2024 doesn't come out until January (after the date most people are applying). I don't see it posted on any school's websites yet, nor is the CDS out yet. Thanks.

Do you think the IB diploma program is worth it as an international student?

[iskander]

Superb. Do you think students from Kazakhstan have a specific quota they face within USA universities?

[JinaMukherjeeF]

how will they evaluate international applicants who dont have gpa

[priifilms]

What if I had really low grades in grade 11(due to difficult personal circumstances)? Is it still worth applying as an international student?
