Odd Situation

Applying to College
1

<p>I was the President of the Debating Society. Then a teacher saw me smoking. I was 18 and outside school at the time so I didn’t break any rules or laws. But suddenly, the school said my “leadership was lacking” so they downgraded me to Vice-Prez a week before my graduation.</p>

<p>Now the only thing reflected in my record is Vice-Prez. I am afraid it will jeopardize my applications to Ivy Leagues. Should I quietly accept the VP thing or ask my cousellor to mention this in her write-up of me?</p>

<p>Btw, I cant change the school decision</p>

<p>Help…</p>

<p>Sounds like your school sucks and needs to get its head out of its ass</p>

<p>umm… No.</p>

<p>…</p>

<p>I think that advice should go to the OP.</p>

<p>Battle of the usernames!!</p>

<p>You’re already graduating?.. but you’re still applying to college…? I don’t think your future college will be fact-checking your entire application… Also, most schools don’t even <em>have</em> leadership/extracurriculars in their records.</p>

<p>I’m confused.</p>

<p>You’ve already graduated? Shouldn’t you have already gotten into college by now?</p>

<p>2 years national service is compulsary for all males in Singapore. thats whre i live btw. so i apply this yr. </p>

<p>and to username (the second replier), i shouldnt be judged as a leader for smoking. its personal and its legal. in any case, it was mere experimentation. and it was tobbacco, not pot.</p>
