getting rejected doesn't make you lesser than. getting in doesn't make you superior. take it from someone who got into a fancy name school, and who knows many fantastic people who didn't and crappy people who did.
anyways, good luck with college applications to any current high school students. and to all, good luck with your future educational endeavors!

“Hopefully none of us base our lives around what looks best on college applications.” Sophomore-sr year me: 👁 👄 👁

As a rather jaded 40-year-old, may I just say that a LOT of this information also applies to when you finally leave school and jump into the crazy world of full-time employment. It doesn't matter what field you apply to or work in - these same myths you have introduced are also perpetuated in the job application and interview process within the corporate world.
Except - maybe change "essays" to "cover letters" (man, I how I hate writing cover letters...).

i knew hot tea was coming when i saw the big 'be yourself' strikeout.
(also this kind of advice leads to a very rude reality check when you realise everyone thinks your real self is socially unacceptable 😔)

12:18 “why would you be watching study advice videos if you weren’t an academic tryhard” thanks for calling me out :’)

about that last point:
If you're accepted into a prestigious school but choose to go to a more middle tier school, you're going to have a significantly easier time. I got into UCLA but opted for UCSB (which is still a great, competitive school) and it's nice not being Pre-med student #250 out of 14000.

The “well-rounded with a spike” concept was the best piece of advice I ever received about college admissions

I love this video because so many big name, millions of followers youtubers push the “i got here because i worked myself into the ground” sentiment which is both encouraging a TERRIBLE mindset and not entirely true

sooo I was rejected from 17 schools. and let me tell you my extracurriculars : ranked top 10 in my state in a sport. top 5% in my school throughout 9,10,11,12. founder/CEO of an app, which connects teens and elderly. and many more. but I could not pay more than 2000 usd per year. I'm going to a top school in india now :)

As a junior, going to be a senior, I'm so glad I clicked on this video and that it came out now. I've been stressing so much with college applications and the idea of paying debt for an education, that alot of other countries pay for. So seeing what's a myth is so important for me to see.

Im in middle school. First year. And already, within the first week, they showed up this “beast mode” video which finished with, “Don’t sleep when youre tired, sleep when youre done.” The video basically just told us that if we didnt spend every minuted going towards success, then we were pathetic and would fail in life. So if anyone else had to watch that, DONT LISTEN TO IT <3

"Be yourself" actually doesn't apply to anything well, not just college admissions. Either you're what other people already like, in which case the advice is useless, or else you aren't, and then it's harmful to you. Be yourself as much as circumstances allow, sure, but realize people are generally pretty narrow-minded, and plan accordingly.

I'll comment as someone in their mid 30s (oh gawd I feel old just typing that). I finished my schooling seevral years ago, grad school included. Back when I applied to universities the college counselor was clearly biased and would treat UCs as the goal schools and CSUs as the backup schools. I turned down a UC and opted to attend a CSU because it had the program I truly wanted. And flash forward to me taking a psychopharmacology course in grad school for fun (yes, the actual psych majors looked at me like I was crazy when I said I wanted to take that course yet they were only taking it as a requirement). My professor was offered a position at UCLA and was invited to observe the UCLA version of our course. When she returned she knocked down the page requirement on our paper and said the UCLA version was so much easier. Ultimately she accepted the position at UCLA because it allowed her to assign a grad student to teach many of her courses, allowing her to focus her time on research instead. I got to learn directly from an expert in her field who routinely worked on research for the government and major pharmaceutical companies, while the UCLA students got a grad student teaching the course. That's something people don't routinely bring up about UCs. Apply to a school that has a program you truly want and don't get caught up in the whole prestige part. Remember that what you need is a program that will prepare you to work in your field of choice.

obviously i haven't seen the whole video yet, the video being uploaded a minute ago, but these videos help so much because my parents didn't go to college and everyone around me is like "well you know more than i do!" well i'm a 17 year old child doing this for the first time so i really don't??
anyways my point is thank you so much for all your hard work :)

"be yourself" is actually the stupidest thing I've heard as advice for getting into the college you want.

As a non-American, seeing how much work you guys have to do very young to get into college ON TOP of paying exorbitant fees that result in a lifetime of debt.. seems like insult to injury having to write a motivational essay after taking out a 100k loan to get in.
