I'm two years late, but I just want to tell you that as a rising junior this video warmed my heart. You reactions felt so genuine and so real, and I just feel feel so happy for you!!!
I work at Stanford as a camera man for sports, my daughter is a freshman in high school, she shadows me now and next year she will be an employee at Stanford as a tech ops, 😞 is that a start ?!? Thanks Fern
The part about everyone watching you guys competing and basing their speeches off of yours is very true. I’m competing this year and I’m watching all the previous vides 😂
I think its also important to recognize the difference in access to resources- especially for those who are of higher income. Its not just about seniors working hard. And while I know you likely had good intentions with this video, I think a disclaimer recognizing the privilege to access and wealth is important. There are so many seniors from low-income backgrounds who don't have the same access to specific classes, tutoring services, and campus summer programs that are for the rich (like the one you went to at Yale). As a current Ivy league grad student who made it here with absolutely zero help, its quite coincidental to watch you get your acceptance to Stanford on a fancy plane on its way to London. Yes- like you said everyone ends up where their meant to be... but its misleading to the fact that disproportionately wealthy and affluent students "end up where they are meant to be" be of connections, resources, and preppy feed high schools in wealthy areas. Congratulations on these acceptances- I just commented so hopefully any low-income student who might be here isn't fooled or thinks less of themselves.
My brother have 5.5 cgpa/10 pretty bad, he wants to join AI courses and offcourse network at this school , what he could do to get in ask any professor pls.
I never comment on this type of videos usually but I had to do it here because I relate so much to what I have just seen... Your mother is an amazing woman, the way she kept insisting "you worked really hard for it you didn't just get lucky" is so heartwarming to watch. And you absolutely deserve every acceptance you got you are obviously a very brilliant student. Congratulations!!
Stanford is definitely the “it” school of all elite universities. Watch any 10 or so “admission update” videos, and you will notice that Stanford is consistently the one that elicits the strongest emotional reaction from the contest winners.
Hello! Firstly, Congratulations!! You have such an amazing and sweet personality and I wish you the best ! I wanted to ask if you don't mind, did you get an interview to the colleges you got into? I'm really curious because I'm in my college application process amd I'm very worried.🙏🙏❤️
