<p>I'm now choosing to recognize my obsession over getting in to college and the unhealthy amount of pressure I am putting on myself in high school which will probably lead to major letdown come college admission time when all my unrealistic colleges send me a reality check. I'm thinking I really need to get a life and stop this madness. I'm guessing the first step would to be get off of CC. Anyone else experiencing this/have ideas?</p>
<p>Well just being on this site rises your hormonal activity about colleges.</p>
<p>LOL science nerds, please don’t take that sentence seriously ;p</p>
<p>Find another obsession. This time, something that does not stress the heck out of you.</p>
<p>honestly no point in stressing out especially if you’re a senior and you still have 3 months till all the major RD decisions come out.</p>
<p>I’m not in your position, but I can give you a universal piece if advice. </p>
<p>Live in the present. </p>
<p>Ponder on this statement…maybe even tell me what you think it means in your situation or even in life.</p>
<p>Well, for me, this site gave me the motivation to pick up my grades. I had a 3.33 GPA my freshman year, and when I discovered this site during my sophomore year, I jumped to a 3.9-4.0. It was a huge reality check for me, and now I am actually somewhat competitive for top schools.</p>
<p>
seems impossible unfortunately :)</p>
<p>I know. You could bomb one semester. Then you wouldn’t have to worry about competetive schools.</p>
<p>the fact that im worrying about Univ. of San Francisco with a 2180 in my SAT should be a good indicator about how many semesters ive bombed</p>
