What’s your worst grade? Yale students: An A- Me: a negative F

That's a pretty big dealbreaker for many colleges. Even many mid-tier colleges won't admit students with one or more F's on their report card. Don't lose all hope though, because you can go to a local community college for two years and then transfer somewhere very good.

My lowest grade was like a low F. (You really don’t want to know the score) That was so embarrassing, but that was in my history class in middle school lol. I guess I did deserve it though, didn’t study at all and basically guessed through it all. Luckily middle school grades don’t really matter (and getting that F served as a lesson, I worked harder on the next test I had an got a 91!) , otherwise I can say goodbye to decent education :D

imma try to explain the unweighted GPA (Grade Point Average) because the weighted GPA (with APs and accelerated courses) is different for every school... all A’s 4.0 some B’s but mostly A’s 3.5~3.9 some A’s but mostly B’s 3.4~3.1 all B’s 3.0 some C’s but mostly B’s 2.5~2.9 some B’s but mostly C’s 2.4~2.1 all C’s 2.0 I think you see the pattern, hopefully it helped :) edit: for those who grade systems are in numbers... A - 90 to 100 B - 80 to 90 C - 70 to 80 D - 60 to 70 F - 50 to 0 (if you get an F you basically failed the class/test)

Yale student here: 1. Lowest grade was a B 2. Went to a private high school. 3. High school gpa was around a 4.7 ish 4. Not a legacy 5. 1360 SAT, ACT 34 6. Only took either test once. They were expensive. 7. No practice tests for the SAT. 8. Common app essay was about my experience as a multilingual immigrant in elementary-high school, and then STEM. 9. I only wrote 2 drafts of the essay. 10. I didn’t work many hours on the essay: I went to my professors for help. 11. Only 2 people read my essay over. 12. I had a Yale interview. It was my only interview, I was nervous and was told that perhaps STEM wasn’t for me. He was surprised about my story. 13. I took many, many APs. Like 14. 14. I got 3-5s on most of my AP exams. 15. I didn’t play sports, but I danced. 16. I did science Olympiad, was in theater, and did some environmental advocacy, and danced/did acrobatics. 17. I applied to 12 schools. Yale was the only Ivy League I applied to. 18. I got into all the schools I applied to. 19. University is hard and diverse in terms of the ways you connect with other people. You get a lot more time with friends. 20. I call my parents maybe once a day or once every three days. 21. I sleep 4-7 hours a night. 22. Yale is the best Ivy League. 23. Huck Farvard. 24. Advice to my younger self: be more confident, and go easy on yourself. You’ll be okay. 25. Tips for getting in: be diligent, do your research, talk to people, create an excel spreadsheet, reach out. Be honest. Be confident. Take risks. Edit: for those that were wondering, my insta is @adventureswithnataly. Additionally, I majored in Biomedical Engineering with a Spanish Certificate.

1. They were smart 2. Unlike most of us they tried in high-school 3. They actually prepared for months for the SAT or they basically treated it the way college students treat the LSAT ( not last minute). But the good news is (as I found out) you can make up for highschool if you do good in college. So for those that see this don’t be discouraged if highschool doesn’t go so well just make up for it in college.

natalia alianovna Well there isn’t really a true “minimum” there are averages they take but they’re just that, averages. You don’t have to hit a certain score technically. That being said you’re for sure right that she made up for it in other areas (grades, aps, extra curriculars) because 1390 is on the lower end. I think most people don’t understand how much personality and passion matters in the application (thus your essays because that’s how you get personality and passion across). Also class rank doesn’t play that big of a role. A #1 at a school doesn’t have a better chance than a #14 solely based on rank. (Generally you’ll just find that Val and sals also do a ton of other stuff that help them get in) the ranking itself isn’t that important.

For those out there applying to colleges, just know that not getting in to a specific school doesn't mean you're a failure! I have plenty of friends who started in like community colleges and ended up in med school, PhD programs, high paying jobs out of their bachelor's etc. What matters more is how hard you study once you get into whatever college.

everyone saying how they're a failure or lesser than these people... being "school smart" is a veryy small part of being an intelligent and well-rounded person. the school you attend does not define your worth or your intelligence in the slightest. having a high work ethic does not equate to being intelligent. I find it really limiting and superficial how much value we place on what school we attend or what job we end up pursuing. we all end up in the same place eventually.

And as far as the extracurriculars, just do any extracurriculars that are regarded to your major. Going around the school with random extracurriculars isn’t really the best choice, though it is good that you’re participating, stacking in extracurriculars is just messy. Stay with your career!

I’m a fourth year medical student interviewing for residency right now. Not sure why this was in my recommended but I feel like I should say something to you younger generation here. I remember being a 16 year old high school student completely obsessed with going to one of these name-brand universities for college. Let me tell you guys something: it doesn’t matter where you go. I ended up not getting into an Ivy League school, but still attended a “top 20” university based on rankings. It did me more harm than good for my pre-med career; the classes were much harder than my state school counterparts and grade deflation caused me to have a low GPA. It took me an extra year+ a lot of effort to build a resume to get accepted to med school. PS: I have an interview at the Yale health system for my residency program next week. I already know I’m going to be ranking it a lot lower than some regional hospitals that I’d much rather train at. Name and “prestige” isn’t everything :)

I just want to say if any of you are in your senior/junior year of highschool, do NOT waste time feeling guilty about not being the best student. We get tired of saying it maybe but there is nothing truer than "grades and numbers do not define you". It is absolute ludicrous that potentially a few adults who have stressful days, make mistakes, might not be the teacher you need determine whether you get your dreams or not. Education and knowledge are indispensable- keep teaching yourself in every way that you can and you are called to. But please do not compare to these people as if they are the only right way. At the end of it all, you are your actions, thoughts, and feelings. Be sure that it is your voice saying you want the grades, the high scores, the ivy league and not your parents or friends or society. You are smart and capable enough in ways we have not celebrated yet- show us. Edit: Coming from an Education major who wishes the education system of America would be revised already.

You mean the obvious examples of affirmative action? I've watched countless videos of students who got into Ivies and they either had perfect grades/sat scores/dozens of great ECs or they are black/hispanic and play the "my race changed my world" narrative. If you think any of the people in this video (besides the white guy and the black girl that didn't mention her race in her essays) would have gotten in if they were asian then you are lying to yourself. We should stop making race a factor in college admissions.

@@adr77510Why do you feel the need to focus on affirmative action instead of legacy students? The entire concept of niche athletes and legacy students is a way to keep the rich richer. The fact that you decide to go after low income minority students FIRST shows that you don’t care about “fairness”at all
