BEST and WORST Thing About Yale? | YALE Q&A (Pt. 2)
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
Best thing about us so far and the worst thing about us so far. I say the best thing about Yale, which is just such a cliche. Isn't that good? One of the best things about hell, I feel like, is that sense of just like the vibe there. I feel like the vibe is very, very good, whether it's you know, whether you're in the classroom where the extracurricular setting just collaborating with the people. They're just like the environment, like always, having positive vibes and talking with such amazing people, such amazing, talented kids who are just so nice to you. You can talk about random things like random topics because everyone is so unique and different, and it's just so cool. Like the overall social atmosphere there is really amazing, because it really does help you with focusing on your studies and just making sure that you are an active and fun and studios and hardworking person. Worst thing about Yale, Uh, okay, I just try to be as unbiased as possible. I don't want to say this is the worst thing and I think this is more of a personal thing to me. I'm very involved in terms of extracurriculars, so I have to have a very, very strict schedule. I'll have to go to class at this time, has to eat lunch at this time of to meet up with this person. This time I have to go to this rehearsal of this time and I feel like sometimes it does get a bit robotic because I always have to think ahead and always plan ahead when I should be like living and enjoying the moment. I feel like that's a personal thing and I think it varies from person to person. I think yeah, in college, you have to really you have to be really strict with their time and sometimes it does end of sacrificing your own fulfillment and presence in the moment. A person I know that there are a lot of people who are just straight up cruising and enjoying you and just like having easy classes while still getting their major requirement personally for me, I think my accident like my classes, which I'll talk about another video. I think the academic rigor isn't as much, especially if he took AP classes in college classes in high school. She's slightly more manageable than that because you only see a class a few times a week. You also get a lot of homework in a lot of papers and a lot of problems. I feel like the academic rigor is definitely manageable at a place that you, depending on your major stand majors good luck. For the most part, you have a fun time, hobbies, clubs. I'm gonna make a seven video on this, but I love just like I love the arts, especially whether it's like Peter Performance. I'll talk about living with video, but for the most part, I just I also just really loved hanging out with my friends, whether it's eating out, chilling in the common room, playing music, just talking about were topics. What extracurricular activities outside internships would you recommend or suggest for people passionate about humanity's Your cause told me about your chance. Well, Danielle, the humanities is a very broad field, so I can't really Taylor specifically because, like, for example, if you love performing, then you could do like dancing your dance club or like performing for theater acting, maybe shooting films, shooting movies, since filming replaces acting, made films, films, filming movies. So I would say to just try to find things at school that are related specifically to what you like and try to get a leadership position in it. At the same time, if there's nothing at your school for it, then I strongly recommend for you to start the club yourself because it's always going to start from the ground up. If there's nothing provided for you, but you have confidence that you will do to do really, really Well, Come on. So the last question is, can you talk a little bit about Quest Bridge? I'm a junior in high school, and I'm considering applying to be a quest for scholar. This is actually a really, really good last question. They basically help those kids by providing them with a bunch of resource is to succeed in college. Just help with writing essays and basically all these things. I'm definitely not describing quest for just highly as I should be. One of the main things about Quest Bridge is a lot of people tend to apply to the National College Match Finalist program for basically if you apply and if you get in, you got to match all of the partner colleges in a list of 12 I think, and the top college get accepted two on that list, you are getting beautiful, right? And in general, having the ward of questions. Scholar is just a really, really good award because a lot of the top colleges recognize it as a very successful and hard award to get. As for your case, Emma, I think, is definitely great that you're applying early. There's also a Quest Bridge College prep scholar program, and I think that you should apply for that, too, because that gives you a lot of resource is and help when you're applying to become a finalist, and they also give you the opportunity to go to a national admissions callers conference, which helps you out with the application process and basically question it is just such a great resource, and it provides you with, like, all of these networking opportunities with other kids who are also in your same situation. Yeah, I'll probably talk more about this bridge in another video, but it's a very good resource, all right, so those are all of the questions for my human? A. Hopefully you guys enjoyed. If nothing, if there are things that aren't that specific, please let me know, because I'm planning on doing more Q and A's in the future, especially for those with friends at Yale and friends and, like specific departments, major departments. Leave more questions not below, and I'll try to answer them. I'll hopefully make more video soon and bye bye.
