Why do students worry about getting into college than staying in it?
I dunno. I'm an upcoming freshmen in college and I just heard news that one of my friends, a college freshmen at UCLA, just committed suicide this week. Our friend was a model student, straight As, outgoing, beautiful, and we are puzzled as to why she really did it (I received a message from her that she really was fussing over a pre-med quiz and got 0/15 for it). And nowadays, I've heard so many stresses on going into SATs, APs, and extracurricular activities just to get in. Almost all these education ads are all focused on this. But there is nothing on staying and prospering in college.

Sorry about your friend. As for the question, I think that its because there is a huge competition going on across the nation. Everyone is competing to get in good universities. So that is the reason why people stress over SATs, APs, and extra curriculars. These these make you stand out from the humongous crowd of people who are also applying. it is very difficult, so many people worry if they were able to get in or not. I think the part about staying in a college is less tought about because everyone probably think that, oh I got past the app process and tens of thousands of other people, now I can relax and take the classes in ease. they dont think about, now that I'm in such a tough school, I need to work very hard to keep up.
From my point of view, I think that if you have the ability to get in, then you have the ability to do the things in it. So im one of the people not worrying about staying in.

i'm uncertain whether UC faculties look at ninth grade notwithstanding that's real that faculties emphasize sophomore and junior 3 hundred and sixty 5 days grades extra desirable than freshman 3 hundred and sixty 5 days. So in basic terms save improving those grades and you have got a miles better danger! You being Asian won't rely on the UC state faculties because of the fact they at the instant are not allowed to take race/ethnicity into consideration for admissions. study demanding (for the SAT too) and that i'm particular which you will get into different faculties in California! it truly is solid which you're questioning of this now. you may additionally evaluate the place in California you may prefer to be. UCLA is in an truly different ecosystem than someplace like UC Merced that's a extra rural region.
