ooof I've never done one of these "opening up" videos so tbh I'm a bit nervous. I saw that a lot of you all are feeling exactly what I was feeling, which is that "we're not doing enough" or "we're not good enough". That's why I felt that even with all the advice videos I put out, it's important that I do this video to really talk about the real struggles I faced. Feel free to share your experiences with comparisons in the comments as well, but please, please, please be nice!! We're all in a vulnerable position here

Thank you soooo much! I am so nervous everyday about my college application, because I read the very top student's personal statement and I keep comparing that to the one I wrote. Ever since, I always deny my own essay. "OMG, I can't feel any passion for biology in my personal statement" and "why my essay sounds so boring" are always in my head. I felt huge anxiety which still haunt me now. My school principal also commented if he was me, he wouldn't wrote an essay like mine. But I also knew that the things I wrote in my personal statement is my mot favorite and proudest thing in my learning process. Watching your video here, I felt a great relieve. Watching your video, I no longer feel the principal's words as a discouragement. It further proves that this is the experience that only I can write about, understand, and experience. Although my essay is limited in showing my passion, I know there's a real curiosity in me that drive me to study. Therefore, I will thrive in any university I go. Nobody says you can only fulfill your curiosity in the top schools. And I'm excited to write a rejection resume to celebrate not only the successes!

I loved this video because I really relate to it-I think we tend to compare ourselves to only the successes of others. As you said, we have an obsession with always succeeding at everything, and I think that obsession results in all of us glorifying our successful moments, but not showing our failures. However, we do see our own failures, which is what forms our holistic identities. We then compare our holistic identities, which is made of good and bad, with the successes that everyone portrays of themselves, and that is when it becomes unhealthy. Also, I asked last time which font size you used in your book and I think you told me your book's dimensions😹But can you please tell me which font size you used for the text? My book's dimensions are quite close to yours, and I'm using font size 15(and the font is called "lato")...I feel like that is way too big, but I'm not sure. Please help😹

Love the video!! Coming from a predominantly competitive school in north Texas, I have always been told by my peers that I am not in the clubs or activities that the quote on quote "asian" student would be in. Despite my accomplishments and projects in the field of interventional cardiology, I was told that I would never make it into the top schools because I dedicated too much time to band. As compared to other states, Texas band is relatively more time consuming and competitive as opposed to band in other states. This constant criticism would always put me down, but now looking back at my accomplishments and leadership within the music sphere of my life, I found myself to be unique compared to the average Indian applicant I was always told to portray. I am not the kind of person who does research for the sake of doing research or competes in competitions for the sake of just winning and putting something on my resume. You don't have to be typical to be accepted. Overall, I hope this message resonates with someone who may be in the same position as I was.💜

Honestly, I think colleges really understand that this year’s tests are not representative of your ability. They care about your course grade (earned from a whole year of work) much more than your score on a 45 min test. I’d recommend just not sending your 3s in, and I don’t think your app will be affected much at all

I think highlighting your background will be amazing! Most students at these top schools don't come from low-income areas, so that's something unique you have to offer. Write your essays and tell a narrative about your experiences in your community, and how you've come to achieve things beyond what's normally expected of students from your school/background.

Hey Iris! This is unrelated but I had a question about subject tests. I just got my AP scores back and didn’t do well on AP bio. Since I want to go in the medical field I wanted to do a lot better. Would taking the bio SAT subject test help a lot if I did well on it? And do you think the AP scores this year don’t mean as much bc of the virus and it was online and cheating? Bc of the virus the earliest date for subject tests is August, which means I have to study for bio all over again. And bc of the virus, as u know, the AP’s only tested some of the chapters. Do u think the subjects tests would also cover those chapter(what we learned in school up until the virus) or do I have to teach myself those topics? Sorry for all the questions. Thank you so much!!

Hey Iris! I need honest feedback. Do I have a chance to get into Stanford or Princeton if I have 4 B+’s and 2 B-‘s in my transcript. I have an explanation about my low grades. This was in my freshman year. I was dealing with a family loss, I was working three part time jobs and my sister had a major depression disorder that affected me. I also had to take care of two siblings. It was really difficult but I tried to keep my grades average. Then, my sophomore year I got all straight A’s except one B in geometry. By the way, the academics in my school aren’t the best. Do I still have a chance?

Iris I really really respect your ideas and thoughts but its to be honest not comparing yourself is easier saod than done. I mean how can some one not compare their self to others that are 100 times better than theirsleves. For example someone who goes to a specialized schol,they have better education,which means better grades and better scores. That means that colleges will prefer that person over yourself. It is really hard living while knowing that. But I really love your videos and you inspired me to do so kany good things Thank You! 🙏
@irisfu6929
@irisfu6929 3 жыл бұрын
I 100% agree, it’s so much easier said than done. It’s something I’m trying actively work at and I think the best thing to do it to realize your own value and not compare yourself in a scale that the status quo gives. Like for example with what you mentioned with a better education from a specialized school... maybe by NOT getting one, you are actually at an advantage bc you have more grit and initiative, and when you do accomplish the same things as others from privileged backgrounds, it’s more kudos to you. Also, colleges (esp America colleges), put u in context with ur environment. So if you have the same accomplishments as someone from a specialized school, then they will 100% take u over them bc you had to work harder to get here. But yeah, just recognize your own value, even in the non traditional sense ❤️❤️❤️

@@irisfu6929 Also Iris, I want to create my own book like how you did. A lot of people recommend using google docs. I want my book to be 7.6 x 5.2 but I don't know how to get it into those sizes. Do you know how to make the measurements?

You can customize dimensions in Canva, but I don’t think Amazon KDP can print that dimension. There are only certain standardized sizes they can print so make ur book one of those sizes (u can see them in your amazon kdp account)

Hey, I actually can’t just read your essays over email bc of a contract I signed :/ sorry if that’s not the way you envisioned it. If you want me to read your essay, you can sign up for a service here: app.joinbullseye.com/mentors/1809

I don’t think REA and RD will make much of a difference, so just apply at the time when you feel most ready and confident about your app
