I’m thinking of majoring in computer science and minoring in music
And I would like to go to MIT with my friend/brother (not related to him in blood but we’re basically siblings) but that’s a REALLY hard goal
And it’s good that you’re working at a younger age. I just started to think about what I want to do with my life but there’s a lot of things I want to try, so I regret not starting sooner
im thinking of double majoring in comp sci and biomedicial engineering
for college honestly i might stay in-state just bc i dont think i can afford out of state without a scholarship
dream school - johns hopkins or stanford
Its fine we all still have a good amount of time, even if it seems tight, remember that no one really has their whole life planned out this early. And it never is late to change
That doesnt mean anything really, they aint fortune tellers nor are they the ones working on your goal
Dont get disappointed with what people say
You never know, maybe till uni something huge happens that changes the course of your life and it surprises everyone
I’ve tried stocks 2 years ago, and to be fair I did make SOME money, but only around 17 dollars over what I invested. And before you ask my dad invested my money for me bc I’m still a minor. It also was right after covid stopped spreading much so business still wasn’t great, i’d go for it
but there are lots of people who got into top universities with low GPA
I mean if you pull up some nice extracurriculars and write some passionate essay, you might have a higher chance than a person with high GPA but no passion
Plus if you are academically not the best doesn’t mean you aren’t a high performer in other areas
That also doesn’t mean you can’t improve
I think it’s more about study techniques than let’s say your smartness
If you are able to find efficient ways to study, you can get your marks up
And anyways students who only rely on their smartness to excel in school generally speaking suffer later on in university
