SATs are not as important as you think.

I was about to stop coming on this site completely (people on here are mean and very discouraging), but you honestly just lifted my spirits.

Guys, what most likely got her in was the fact that the schools could see that she did things that ACTUALLY MEANT SOMETHING TO HER!! She didn’t just do them and spend $2,000 on SAT prep to strive for a 2350 just to get in.

I’m sick of people on this site putting others down and just being rude in general (not saying some people don’t have excessive reaches, but you should gently explain to them what you think. STOP being harsh).

For all of the students who feel put down and discouraged, use this nice person’s story as a motivation. We can all do it! :)

P.S. The chance forum should be deleted (I have just discovered this in the past 2 days). After reflecting, I think I will stop coming on this site, and I will encourage others to stop, too.
