Wow you definitely worked hard, you deserve that spot in Yale!!! I just recently took a tour of the school and some super excited alumni I met at the bookstore talked to me. They were so passionate about their alma mater that I ended up falling for the school too. I think that the admissions officer actually might have talked about you during the info session! He mentioned an incoming freshman who was also a professional magician haha

Hi Josh Beasley, I have watched many of your videos and noticed your outstanding accolades and acheivements and have used your advice in the many facets of high school life. I have some questions pertaining to my future college and I could benefit from your infinite wisdom. So here are some things about me first. I am an asian male junior, and I go to a competitive high school in silicon valley, and the average sat score in my school and its surrounding schools are around 1400 to 1500. In my freshamn year I took all honors, and my gpa was a 3.8. In my sophomore year, I took two weighted classes, engineering and AP Euro, honors chemistry, alegbra 2 honors, honors english, and PE. My gpa was a 3.7 unweighted, and a 3.9 weighted. I self studied for AP Calculus BC and AP Physics C and got a five on both, but I got a 2 on the AP Euro exam. This year, I am taking AP Psychology, AP English lang, AP CSP, AP Physics 1, USH, and precalculus H. Five are weighted, but my grades are terrible. My semester 1 grades are 2 As, 2Bs, and 2Cs. I am in national merit, and I got a 1430 on my SAT, and I will retake it and hopefully get a 1550 or so. My extracurriculars are junior varsity and varsity badminton, math and physics club and I have volunteered at the local library for tutoring. I might qualify for USAPHO and AIME this year. I want to know my chances of getting into UC Berekeley or an IVY league school, since I am in a unique situation. I want to major in computer science and statistics, and I have studied math and physics a lot since freshman year for fun. However, my grades are so bad, and I don't know who to ask besides people online. Even though around 20 or 30 people each year in my school go to an ivy league or equivant, I can't ask them, because I know they will tease and belittle me for being so stupid (the competition here is fierce). Please, some advice will be greatly appreciated.

I don't think I'll ever be able to bring it up to a 4 because my school only offers a limited amount of ap classes so I can take 4 next year and 4 the year after. I'm going to try to get an independent study US gov over the summer and attempt to get as many ap classes as I can

I am currently a sophomore in high school, and was wondering if my resume fulfills Georgia Tech's needs. I would like to apply as an Aerospace major. ACADEMICS: I have not yet taken the SAT. I took an SAT Math Practice Test and scored a 750, but that is subject to change as I had not studied previously. I have a 3.84 unweighted GPA (4.0 scale), and a 5.04 weighted GPA. Top 10 in my class. I took 2 AP's last year: AP World and AP Human Geo, and scored a 4 and 2, respectively, much to my dismay. I am currently taking AP Seminar, AP Art History, AP Psychology, and AP Lang. I have taken mock tests administered by my school, and scored a 5 on Psych., 4 in Art History, and a 4 in Lang. Seminar is very subjective, so I don't know what I'd score. Next year I will be taking AP Physics 1, AP Computer Science Principles, AP Research, AP Literature, AP United States History, and AP Calculus AB, in addition to 2 dual enrollment classes at my local community college. EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES I have a deep passion for S.T.E.M activities, and I am centering my application on this. (P.S. If you know of any other STEM related activities, let me know pls lol). BTW, indented ones are the ones that I have not yet done, but aspire to.

Watching your video, I noticed that I have a lot of similarities with you in regards to classes and extracurriculars (fellow violinist!), which gives me some more hope for the future:) I had a couple questions- based on the courses available at my school and the number of classes we can take, coupled with the fact that I've been taking french and orchestra so less space available on my schedule, I've only taken a few AP classes. I also self studied a few for the AP tests, and got 4s and 5s on all of them. I also don't have a 4.0 gpa- do you think I would have a good chance to get in based on my academic workload? How much does Yale take APs into account, and what APs count for college credit? Thanks so much again if you read through my long comment.

I didn't take any aps during freshman sophomore year (however honors pre-calc was weighted) because my school offered aps to the upperclassmen first. I want to take as many aps as possible. I want to go into engineering. This year I'm taking Calculus (unfortunately my school does not offer ap calc. bc; still weighted tho), AP Chem, AP Physics, AP Comp Sci, regular english, and spanish 1. Senior year, I planning to take AP Biology, AP Environmental Science, AP Government, and AP Literature, Spanish 2, and PE. I also plan to take multivariable and linear algebra at my local community college. But the truth of the matter is that I just don't have enough room in my schedule. And my school also does not have a lot of ap courses that a lot of the other schools have (like Physics B/C, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, etc) I'm taking pretty much the maximum of classes I can take and my counselors won't allow me to add any more classes. However, with 6-7 aps, if I got all As and 5s on the exam, do you think colleges would then consider my situation or at least know about how my school runs things? I know this is a long msg, but I appreciate it a LOT! Thank you!

That GPA scares me. My application is pretty similar in general level to what it sounds like yours was, with that exception. I have straight A's despite doing all IB classes throughout Junior year and will probably end up with the same, but I have a few B's in my freshman and less so sophomore year. They were all honors classes and three APs sophomore, but I'm still really worried that my GPA will screw me over. Hoping I can correct myself following the Yale early action notification date of December 15th...

@marcusmiguel1850
@marcusmiguel1850 6 лет назад
Sorry if this is a late reply, but I'm replying because I have seen this issue a lot about APs. Advance Placement courses are not the only way to get into top colleges. Colleges look at how well you challenged yourself given what you had. Since your school does not offer any AP classes, then you do not need to worry. Challenge yourself as best as possible, score well on the SAT and SATII, and pile up on ECs. If you want, you can self study AP tests since from my experience and from some of my friends, some AP tests are really easy to study for. I'm self studying AP Physics C Mechanics and AP Physics C E&M as well as AP Chemistry. So to answer your question, no it won't hurt you and yes, colleges will take into consideration what's available to you and weight it accordingly.

Why didn't you take the AP French exam? You probably could've gotten an excellent score! Are you going to minor in French at Yale? Did you take any SAT IIs?
@JoshBeasley
@JoshBeasley 7 лет назад
After taking two years of French at my Texas high school and then transferring to Virginia, French 4 was extremely stressful for me and took up way too much time, so i decided against AP French. I don't plan on minoring in French. I took the Math 2, Physics, and US History SAT II's and scored an 800, 800, and 770 respectively. Thanks for watching!!

yejin Suh I don’t know if everyone does this, but my school had a “mini election” type of thing. Anyone who wanted to be president made a video about themselves and why they would make a good leader. Then the other members of NHS voted for who they wanted.

Do you have to do that all to get into Yale? I thought I was doing well with Geometry and all honors classes freshman year, my third year of Spanish, and four electives since I took World History over the summer. I’m planning on joining multiple extracurriculars and playing golf. I also asked my teacher if I could take Geometry over the summer so that I could take Algebra 2 freshman year, (as I had grown bosom with it), but she discouraged it, and thus, my parents wouldn’t permit it. So, basically, what I’m trying to say is that I’m an aspiring Anesthesiologist, I think that Yale is where I would like to attend college at the moment, and I’m just wondering if I still have a shot.

@JoshBeasley
@JoshBeasley 7 лет назад
You should definitely get the subject test books. The subject tests often take on a much different form than AP exams. The book will give you practice towards the specific type of questions they ask.
@sourbmahi2631
@sourbmahi2631 7 лет назад
What prep books do you recommend? Princeton Barron's etc?
@JoshBeasley
@JoshBeasley 7 лет назад
For the SAT, I recommend the official College Board book. For Subject tests (especially math 2) go with Barrons, and for AP tests stick with the Princeton review.

So, the American Veteran's Support Group is an organization to spread awareness and support for our nation's servicemen and women. We ran several clothing drives, fundraising contests, and made weekly visits to the local veteran's retirement home. We often invited guest speakers for our monthly meetings too.

Hello, so I wanted to ask what you think that I can do to get into colleges. I am currently a freshman taking 4 AP classes, AP Calculus BC, AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Human Geography, and AP Computer Science Principles, and I have straight A's right now. I plan on taking classes at the state university next year. I also qualified for math counts nationals last year and got 1st in the state for an Algebra 2 competition. This year, I qualified for nationals for FBLA, which I plan on attending. I took the ACT this year and got a 34, and plan on taking it again to get the 36, along with the SAT. I am also the captain of the school quiz bowl team. So, do you have any idea on what I should do next?

Camille L my 17 year old son who’s going to be a senior this year took 2 APs last year and this year is taking 2 more plus an early college experience physics class which is also a hard class. He’s involved in national honor society, student government, yearbook and is starting a robotics club with a friend of his (hopefully if they don’t end up back in distance learning)... he plays lacrosse and cross country too. Plus he has a 4.0 and ranks so far 3rd in his class. So, he didn’t want to take too many AP and go crazy which I think it’s smart. Btw, congratulations to you for getting accepted in a good college where you’re happy and thriving
