Nothing. The people who are warning you know little, to be blunt.

Enjoy your last few months as a HS student. Crank out your grades. Leave HS with no regrets. Have fun. Show gratitude to your parents.

You’ll be fine once at Yale. Congrats on your QB admit. You were one of only 21 people on the planet to be chosen. Yale (who will read 30K applications this year) believes you’re absolutely stupendous. Please read my advice to another student on this thread:

And please: don’t go to that SAT sitting. What a time waster. You’re better off sitting at home baking some cookies for yourself.

BTW: I was fortunate enough to interview one of your fellow QB admitees. He is ecstatic about being accepted. Yale, Class of '18. Get used to that phrase!
