<p>I don’t want to seem like someone obsessed with getting into college and being ranked #1 . I’m definitely not, and it’s not something to be embarrassed about even if I was. Plus a lot of people discourage me to focus so much on school, and say that getting into an ivy league will be no problem for me (with a decent rank and hardly any ECs and low SAT scores :(… ) so I try and keep it private since I believe it’s going to be a lot more work and I don’t want to argue with anyone.</p>
<p>If you know me, you know who I am by my posts. And I know people have found my CC and I found CC people that I know.</p>
<p>no.</p>
<p>I “read it somewhere on the Internet,” that’s enough for my parents.</p>
<p>^ That. </p>
<p>I don’t tell my friends but it’s my dad who introduced me to this site during middle school (like 6th grade) but then I didn’t care about college. It was once I got a 1700 on a practice SAT test which is the same score I got during 7th grade, I decided to use this!</p>
<p>Yeah only my sister knows about it. I would never tell anyone else though cuz then the rest of my family will harass me even more like saying “if you know so much about admissions on CC, then why did you screw up last year!?” and everyone else will think its weird since people think only nerds go on CC.</p>
<p>Yup. Well I mean sort of if someone texts me ‘Watcha doing?’ when I’m drinking tea and scrolling through CC I tell them. It’s not like they care, ive done more embarrassing things.
Family knows because they ask about my life and well my life is basically three things.
- Preparing for college
- Horses
- Books and traveling daydreams
College is the most relatable for them.</p>
<p>My mom does…it’s not like, a secret. Should it be? This site is great.</p>
<p>I don’t think anyone know… Like my mom always see me on this site… But she’s kinda whatever.</p>
<p>But none of my friends know. NONE AND NEVER WILL</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This.</p>
<p>It doesn’t really come up though.</p>
<p>Only one of my really, really close friends know and that’s only because she was having trouble with the whole college process thing and wanted some advice. If someone asked, I wouldn’t hide it from them because I’m not embarrassed about using CC. CC just NEVER comes up in any of my conversations with people and my parents never ask either so there’s no need to tell them about it.</p>
<p>@goodnoodle: Awwww!! Does she look up to you? I’m an only child so…</p>
<p>Foodlover Idk, maybe she does haha. She kinda reminds me of the sister from Drake and Josh- always looking for ways to torture me.</p>
