What is Yale REALLY Like? | YALE Q&A (Pt. 1)
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
How's going everyone? My name's Arnold, and today we are going to be doing a Q and A video, one that I have been postponing for about two months now that is very blurry, and I am finally here. What is your really like? Uh, that is actually a very broad question. Like this prestigious, very rich, very like a school with a bunch of arrogant kids. It is very collaborative, and everybody is just so supporting of each other. Everyone loves working together about the same time. One of the most important things to realize that everyone at Yale, for the most part, especially first years, they're still like teenagers. A lot of us don't really know what we want to do in our lives. Everyone is just so humble and collaborative, and it's a very good atmosphere. I think I'm rambling on this point, but I think hell is actually very, very fun place. Can you read your essays? Do you like Nintendo? I might read. My essay is in the future video, but we'll see. I actually made a lot of Oakland videos back in the day. Did you apply to any other schools besides hell, What were they and what were the results? No, Yellow is the only school I applied to technically because I applied single choice early action. Once I got in, I was just like you screw it? I'm not gonna find anything else because the application, they notified me of my acceptance before the deadline for a lot of the regular decision applications. I'm very happy for Can you give advice to young people who are interested in the arts but are in an environment where stem is practically worshipped and the arts are laughed up easy, double major and calm in all seriousness. As cliche as it sounds, one of the most important things in life, especially when choosing a passion, is that you have to truly and genuinely enjoy love it, because if you don't actually love it, you're gonna be so sad trying to pursue it, like taking all these courses that you're not actually interested in. For example, if you're doing feeder, you know, just like audition for a lot of roles, take anything that they throw at you and just say yes to everything in every single opportunity. What is your major? I was thinking a double major between a bunch of different majors. I think I've consolidated too double majoring in political science, English and maybe Peter a combination of those two. Did you find any classes interesting which aren't related to your major if there's one. OK, so for those of guys who don't know what shopping period is, basically this two week period at Yale, where you can like dropping add classes so you could test them out, see which ones you like, see which ones you don't. At the end of the two weeks, you have to finally consolidate your schedule into four or five classes or so personally for me, it didn't really help me as much. I kind of think is overrated because the thing is for shopping. Period number one, you still have to do all of your homework. You know that two week period number two, you get wait listed a lot and number three. A lot of people tend to already know what classes they like, even the first impression of that class. So for the most part, you don't really spend the full two weeks just like shopping every single class and doing all the homework because it gets very overwhelming. Yeah, I personally didn't think it was too helpful because I kind of already knew what classes I wanted to take, which I will probably talk about a future video. As for classes that I found interesting which weren't related to my major, there's a class I took, which was an astronomy course. We had a very accomplished professor and we went to the telescopes, and we did all these things learned about stars and planets and dark matter and all these cool concepts. Uh, a lot of people actually enjoy shopping, period. What career are you aiming for in the future? At this point, I still don't know. We're starting with you two panel over here. What's your favorite place at Yale? This is a very hard question because I love Yale in its entirety like it's such an awesome campus of the beautiful campus, the trees, the buildings, the architecture's b. Just everything about yield. One of the most recent favorite places that have been at it's actually in the previous log. One of my close friends actually showed me the place. It is just such an inspiring place in the light is there and then you just feel so studios and it's just it's just a really beautiful place. In general, it's just such an awesome, amazing university. It's just such an awesome and amusing university. One of them has to be definitely bulbous or on Oh, gee, very nostalgic. Um, well, say Pan Chan from now, because it's a very cool panda and also fun.
