<aside> 🔑 This is the refined list of the videos I found useful when acquainting myself with US college admissions. How to crack it. I learned so much from videos, they improved my understanding of the complex process very quickly. Put on 2x speed to save time. Take notes.

Ironically none of these vids will tell you how to get in - you will mostly be overwhemled you with flashy things. You think/write you way into an Ivy League, not superfical flex your way in. The confusing part for all is that amazing thinking does coincide with flashy activities often. Flashy activties do not mean an incredible mindset, and that’s why people don’t get in.

<aside> 📌 That was a lot. I hope you understood the main differences between the college system in your country and the US. The most important thing to understand is that the US college application process is holistic. For this reason, applying to America requires a lot more effort than applying to British unis. It requires you to give a lot more of yourself.
