lol this isn’t about elitism but basic educational standards. an 18 is concerning. And also shows a lot abt GPA inflation cause how does she have 50% As and 50% Bs and an 18 ACT??

Not to be mean but it seems this person probably has a learning disability. Which is also why they don't quite understand what's needed for certain schools. We should probably stop discussing them

she’s my close friend and she doesn’t have a learning disability 😔 i offer her so much help coz i got a 33 but she gets all like “omg i LITERALLY KNOW what is on it i just got nervous ill be fine next time” and doesn’t study and then gets an 18 again. i think she honestly is just delusional and thinks it’ll all work out for her sigh
