What do you like and what do you dislike about CollegeConfidential?

<p>I like the HSL ■■■■■■ – they’re hilarious. I also learned about self-studying on here, but I may very well be the only person who enjoyed that. I like reading success stories, like this one: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/admissions-hindsight-lessons-learned/940151-different-success-story-please-read-if-youre-still-high-school.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/admissions-hindsight-lessons-learned/940151-different-success-story-please-read-if-youre-still-high-school.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>I don’t like how CC encourages a ‘grind’ mentality – APs til you drop and laundry list ECs abound; I’m not a fan of people encouraging someone to go into debt for school that’s ranked #35 instead of going for a full ride at a school ranked #40, either. I don’t like the fact that anyone can go on here and post false information, ranging from “I got into Yale with 1200 SAT (on all three sections)” to “UChicago is a safety school!” I dislike the drama queens that spam every part of the site with threads like, “OMGZzzzzz!11111!!! PLEASE HEEeeeeeeeeeEEEEELLllllllllllPPPPP!!! jkdhf fdhgjkfgjkgvhjdvkdfjkvhdfjhjv I SENT IN A TEACHER REC BUT HE PUT “SHE’S A GOOD STUDENT” instaedz of “SHE IS A VERY GOOD STDENT” ARE MY CAHNCES ROOINED 4 LYFE???”</p>
