For number 9, "online learning, " I highly reccomend MIT OCW, or any OCW. It's a great way to learn something new, and it's college level

[timacorn]

there's just do much stuff to do online for school, like its hard to keep track of stuff and I think I'm missing a lot of deadlines

Hi, could you make a video regarding extracurriculars for international students (especially for students who don’t have extracurriculars like volunteering or competitions and stuff widely available to them because of their region etc)

[SergioGarcia-dpty]

Hey,
I would love you to make a video on what international students should do to get into college

[sparkle]

Learning a new language is another fun one! I've really been using the quarantine to strengthen my French skills :)

Me, a poor person who lives in a small town aspiring to become an engineer: *Welp, time to do some Javascript!*

Can you do a video on the UC System cancelling SAT Requirements and why / if we should still prepare totake the exam.

I just emailed my arabic teacher at my high school and I’m starting an Arabic Honor Society at my school!!

This is such an underrated channel! It is so helpful and useful for so many people! Love you guys! ❤️

Ah yes, I love the book Harry Otter. It’s a pretty good book. “The Otter who lived”

To elaborate on number 7 (remote volunteer work), you could volunteer your time to moderating or being an administrator in a forum, game, chatroom, etc. While might not sound like a practical or even worthwhile EC, in a volunteering position in a large online community you'll find that you will learn a lot and be provided with many new skills.

Hi, Ms Brooke! I got into Columbia's class of 2024 and your videos helped me a lot in starting my application.
This video came in the right time, because I'm for interesting things to do!

I found you so late for my 17-year-old son (who doesn't listen to my advice anymore) but not so late for my 11 year old :) Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[deadinside]

if you want to code: start with python there are plenty of courses

[krimmy]

Hello, Brooke.I honestly love your videos, they are so insightful and helpful.I am Nigerian and there isn't a lot of information on how to get into American colleges for African students.But your videos go a long way!❤️

[natalysancon]

Can someone please further explain to me the “journalistic writing “ part especially the op-eds I’d really appreciate it

[johnnyc]
