四年来一直很自觉很努力的孩子,被据了之后,眼看着这个月学校成绩就跌下来。。。看到这篇reddit的帖子,深深理解以他们的年龄和经历,难以接受自己的付出和努力没有等价的回报。
即使我们父母从来没有把IVY当作目标,觉得州立已经可以了,但也知道孩子为什么失望,为什么暂时失去了学习的动力。
今天算是申请季基本结束,希望大家的娃都能有好运。

genuinely i don''t know what i did wrong. its like i put so much work in these past 4 years and when people doubted me i told myself i would prove them wrong when my decisions came out. But when it comes to it, i guess they were right, and I think that hurts the most. Its not that I mind going to my state school, i just hate what it entails. it means that all the shit I have gone through for the past 4 years, averaging 4 hours of sleep a day, constantly worrying about what more I could do, was a waste and I have nothing to show for it. I hate that people say "you''ll end up where you belong". In a way I''ve always believed it but I don''t know if I do anymore. And sometimes rejection isn''t redirection... its just a rejection and I cant even read my letters. I''ve genuinely been crying nonstop for hours and it almost feels like I''m living a fever dream. Im just laying it bed and I can''t even tell the passing of time and its the weirdest feeling i''ve had. I''m looking at all the hw I have due tmr and I genuinely can''t decide if its worth it. I''ve spent the past 17 years of my life worrying about deadlines and clearly its amounted to nothing. And its worse because my parents are so kind but I know they''re sad too. I wish I could make them proud. Thats all I wanted to do. I wanted to make them proud and prove everyone else wrong but ig life doesn''t always work out that way.
ig its not over till its over so I will see you guys on tuesday (and tomorrow) for the last decision because its my last hope and after that i don''t even know where I''m going. But i can''t open these fuckass letters anymore. its like each time i see a rejection my heart breaks just a bit more. please please please please all i ask for in one acceptance out of all the schools that are coming out. and i''m really sorry for the rant i''m just down in the dumps. its been a pleasure stressing with you all.

难道不是因为这个垃圾国家的大学录取制度不透明造成的?
但凡像中国高考那样,无论结果好坏,大家都服气。

以后遇到大的挫折,是不是也这样?

这不比中国高考一次考试强多了,你辛辛苦苦准备几年一次考试发挥不好就失败了,你之前的努力也是白费啊。美国这种体制,你至少干了很多事情可以写在简历里,也是人生经历,也锻炼了各种综合的能力,而不只是做题的能力。还是美国这种好。

一定程度上能理解吧,
高考也很痛苦就是。这边
毕竟有州大当保障,而且我们做父母的,知道排名很大一部份是虚荣。

我觉得这个孩子的mindset本身就是错的,太在意别人的看法,包括上名校也是。

说起来容易啊,没有经历过几次挫折,哪来的抗挫能力。

有这种心态的孩子不少啊,也不能用对错来判断。

T30以上,拼的真的不是成绩。
如果每天只能睡四个小时,T0都不值

毕业班学生很多都有senioritis
中文俗称躺平摆烂
有些接到好offer的学生,甚至会因为躺太平了,最后成绩太难看,被已经录取的大学取消offer的
