how I got into the *hardest* school to get into - Caltech [stats, essays, other fun stuff]

I'm far enough removed from high school, so now I'm willing to share my secrets lol. Highly requested - here is me going through my Caltech application for the first time since I submitted it! This video includes my stats, essays, extracurricular activities, etc., as well as some embedded tips for applying. In reality, all the top schools, like Stanford, UCs, Ivies, are the hardest to get into (and you know what, the college application process is rough in general), and regardless of the ranking, there really isn't too much of a difference between them in difficulty. Also, I am just stating stuff on my application (almost even from an outsider's pov as you can see haha), so this is in no way intended to be arrogant or anything like that (except the title seems kind of, but hey, it's not untrue and gotta be catchy somehow amiright). Either way, I hope this is helpful and motivating! Good luck :D

Low-key - no, high-key - a pretty high-effort video, which I had fun making, so I hope you guys find it entertaining too! I got a kick out of it at least :p Thanks for watching, and check out my vlogs for more college content! :)
