Lol i realized my essay were 200 words instead of 250 words right on jan 15th.

I wonder how much the limit matters. For my parent statement/essays my mami could literally only write like 20 words I had to help her so much :sob:

If I’m being honest my dad and mom sat next to me and I just wrote their parent statement for them while they just watch and revise some things

Every couple characters my mami would complain she was bored and didn’t want to write the essays. So she would go make food and watch shows on her laptop. I had to stay on her to get them done it was literally the last thing we submitted for schools. She was complaining about writing 23 statements when I had to write way more than her. I definitely should of done what you did, smart!!!

Haha, that’s honestly relatable because my mom and dad was like “what’s the point of all this?? These private schools ask for too much! It’s just a high school”

Exactly!! They were like…“is it us or you that’s applying? Why do they care what we think?” Like idk please just write them lol. What a long process but at least the waitings almost over!

My school only has ‘general science’ I’m aceing it but know literally nothing about things I should know for highschool science. When I tried to learn biology on kahn academy I had to start with midde school level and from the first video I was like 'huhhhh??? I never learned this stuff in my science course." I’m so scared for highschool science help.

If it makes you feel better I’m in AP Chemistry right now more than half way through the year and still have no idea whats going on. Just vibing. Somehow with a 98. May still be looking up what electrons are… High school science will be the death of me.

Yes!! Our hard work is finally going to determine whether we get in or not! What schools did you apply to?

Deerfield, Groton, Loomis, Choate, Hotchkiss, NMH, WMA, Williston(Only acceptance so far).

How about you??

I applied to Andover and Harvard-Westlake (a day school in my area), very small list but thankfully got in to the day school! Super scared for Andover, has been my dream school for a long long time

I was thinking about applying at Andover too but I think it’d be too far and rigorous. My parents are only letting me do day :smiling_face_with_tear:
