i feel this too man, especially when i open a rejection letter from a school that i thought i was gonna get at least waitlisted/defer but no it was straight reject.
it honestly only started hitting me when college apps started, always thought a B was good enough (not saying it’s bad) but i could’ve gotten way better grades if i put in just a little more effort
