STATS & EXTRACURRICULARS that got me into USC, Northeastern, ivy league/Cornell (waitlisted) Indian

[@vishwasbirajdar]

Superb achievements all the best for your future

[@mistybengali]

Idk but why my mind wants to give the credits to her parents,,,, she is so lucky ,,, may be she is from a pretty much higher edecated background,,,,background matters a lot ,,,, n for lower middle class student iit jee is the only choice they know ,,,,,,,

[@withlove_moira]

I mean I do get where this is comming from but I don't think you should limit yourself or the students belonging to the middle caste! Even I am from a middle class family and my parents are educated and although we might not be that well off to just pay for my college tution abroad my parents are really supportive and they encourage me alot by reassuring me that they are always here for me. I just wanted to clarify how every middle class person is not the same lol no hard feelings or anything!

[@mistybengali]

@withlove_moira sis ,,,, I'm not limiting any student ,,,,, it's about known path ,,,, I Said higher education parents ,,,,educated parents know the path should be going through by their child,,,,it's not about just money ,,,,,, bcz lower middile class parents r concern about the education but they don't know the path should be used bcz they majorly don't much educated n don't know the path,,,,,, overall I mean higher educated parents know the path n have connections,,bcz it matters a lot,,,# if a educated parents have a child who didn't even good at study but though his or her parents know the path should be used for better future like to be financially independent earning good amounts of money they obviously make their child,,,,, ## path , connection everything matters sister ,, ## so there left one choice that's more known to parents is iitjee,, even lot of parent's don't know about this too,, Btw nice convo with u🌸 ,,, stay healthy stay blessed🥰🥰

[@withlove_moira]

@mistybengali I totally agree! I do feel that the alot of parents don't really know what their child might want and majority of them just follow the trend of competitive exams! And this is the mindset of like 90% of the society which makes me go crazy 😭 I find it so funny that in India your acceptance or rejection from any top college depends SOLELY on your marks. Like Indian colleges don't give a damn about extracurriculars and then alot of students don't even get to know their hobbies and interests other than academics! But yeah it feels great that people like you still exist and see what the problem is with our society! Really appreciate that 🫂

[@mistybengali]

@withlove_moira I'm happy🤗,u get my point,,, May God keep blessing u 🌺 n help u to fulfill ur dreams 🥰🤗

[@hinaguiza8810]

😭haha you're amazing to be able to do all those. I can't, probs have to give up on my dreams for now. I do agree it should be done for the experience but i was a shy girl all my life therefore missed on great opportunities! And now I have 0 extra curriculars to put on! 💀 Thanks for the helpful video though.

[@AryaaJain]

omg you sound like me

[@hinaguiza8810]

@@AryaaJain hey so there's this ID and legit site called projectforum. You can part take into any extracurricular of your choice or internship even. 900+ options to choose from and easy submission. 🙈I couldn't find any because I'm too incompetent atm but if you have skills, go for it.

[@puskarchapagain7579]

Please make a video on your common app essay, it would be really helpful. Huge congratulations for all the acceptances 🎉

[@derpygaming2271]

Why did you choose arizona over usc??? and uw madison or northeastern as well? i am curious. congrats

[@jigishakshirsagar]

The biggest reason was the scholarship haha! But I'd love to go to one of those schools in the future!

[@AnshikaGautam04]

Bro did you take any gap year? I mean when did you start to apply? After 12th results obv?

[@jigishakshirsagar]

No, I applied during my 12th grade, you’re not required to submit 12th grade scores!

[@jaydeviupadhayay6452]

What is the monetary amount awarded for this scholarship?". Fully funded or partially funded.

[@prasiddhidixit]

[@tenzinkai]

Did you not take AP exams, or they aren't necessary?

[@mithun2107]

They aren't

[@jigishakshirsagar]

I personally did not take any, they're helpful for college credits though! You might be able to skip some classes

[@mithun2107]

@@jigishakshirsagar which school are you attending now ?

[@jigishakshirsagar]

The University of Arizona! I've posted quite a few videos from here :)

[@tenzinkai]

@@jigishakshirsagar if it isn't personal do you mind telling me how you're gonna pay your tution fees?! Like student loans, parents money, or like part time jobs.

[@uniconn.connect]

How you got that scholarship, should we send css profile and select any option like need scholarship

[@jigishakshirsagar]

You'd submit a CSS profile for financial aid.. not scholarship. You're automatically considered for some of the merit scholarships when you apply (like the one I received), otherwise you can apply through the scholarship portals of the universities you're interested in

[@ksieiehxnzna]

Im going to be starting my 9th grade in august, realistically, what are my chances of actually making a profile to get into colleges like Georgia state or University of Texas etc?

[@jigishakshirsagar]

Your entire application is based on your profile from the 9th to 12th grade, if you really do want to get into these colleges, you have all the chances (and the time) to build your profile for your dream university! I started out at the end of 10th grade n still managed to get into USC, Northeastern, UW Madison n waitlisted from Cornell, so I'm sure you can do it too, and better than me, if you plan a little ahead. If you need any help with the process, mail me at [e-mail]
