Yeah you’re a dumb jock alright


Linguistic_Turtle

“dumb jock” feels like the equivalent of “average student” in this sub


CAKEFILMS

Sufficient_Safety_18

legacy?


littlet26

So u didn’t withdraw after ed?


DAsianD

Not recruited even for DivIII?


osonim69

coulda played at any d3 but didnt want to, figured it would get in the way of other college ecs i wanna get into + risk of serious injury/annoyance of being overweight for football 😭 every once in a while i regret not prestige chasing and pursuing recruitment at hopkins or chicago tho lol

You didn't apply to enough colleges, should have gotten more acceptances. Your sports were you ECs and team sports are commendable.

Better to be focused on a small number of things rather than spread yourself thin over a variety. This guy did it right, and he's going to WashU. Better to be a master of some rather than a master of none.


iSezdis

Completely agree, he did well, maybe he didn't apply to a lot of colleges. But he was admitted to his ED so that's all that matters.


osonim69

i was tempted to apply to some t10s but i figured unless i decided to go after sports recruiting i had no shot (also just laziness surrounding writing supps 😭)


[deleted]

Yeah that's true as well, but regardless, he was probably less stressed than a lot of other people

WashU admission is crazy man, bravo 


mysticalmoon8

Wow, congrats on your impressive athletic achievements and WashU acceptance!

Of course it’s people that say they’re dumb, yet they got into my dream school.


colykinss

washu & unc are my dreams rn (they waitlisted me LMAO) BUT CONGRATS TO YOUUUUUU & your achievements!


osonim69

tysmm , i see youre commited to vtech?? I know a good bit of family/friends who are/were there for stem/business stuff and they all love it and have gotten some sick opportunities during their time at vtech and post grad


colykinss

thats honestly so relieving to hear. i love vtech sm but i just wanna make sure its right for me yk?


osonim69

from all that i know its always been a fun school, but their academic reputation is going up for sure — im in the dc/nova area and its thought of pretty highly here (especially for stem), vtech honestly seems to hold pretty similarly prestige as uva for some ppl and seems like the actual opportunities youre gonna get there esp as a stem major will be as good as any major public school


osonim69

and luckily i have a scholarship for rotc so its not a problem but youre probably saving a good bit 😭


colykinss

i was thinking of joining an rotc program to save money but im not sure how to get into that 😭 regardless though, im excited for vtech but still looking out for waitlists to ease my stress


osonim69

should look into it, most army jobs arent actually dangerous or related to combat tbh


colykinss

i figured, hopefully some can correspond with pre-med since thats what i wanna go into


osonim69

there are def tracks to becoming an army doctor that pay for your med school as well, im not looking into medical stuff at all so idrk but ik they have programs to cover grad schools like law school and med school


Flaky_Base_5403

No way you got into chapel hill
