I miserably failed this year in college applications...
taking 10 ap classes and rank 14 in my school.. i can't believe that non of the colleges I applied accepted me....
My ACT score is not bad at all, it is 30.. and my sat II are all pretty decent, 700ish... and I have only been in the U.S for three brief years and started to learn english from the scratch since 9th grade.. btw, I'm a u.s citizen...
I applied to one safety. Maryland College park.. NYU and George Washington, Georgetown and JHU...
and i got all rejections...
I have no idea why!
I think the gap year thing is interesting.. you can also join the army... um.. or apply to schools outside of the U.S
Colleges all over asia still accept applications...
and in Europe, great schools like École Normale Supérieure are still accepting admissions..
I'm going back to my home country to study for a year...... and if admit into the best university in China.. I'm thinking about doing graduate study in state.. but whatever.. U.S colleges are so freaking expensive... the best colleges in China only cost you like 3000 bucks a year without financial aid.. and europeans colleges don't even cost a cent... if you are the citizen of an european country...
I'm just so frustrated with the admission process....
