Ok so I think we’re at the end of University acceptance season, huge congrats to everyonehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏽" title="Folded hands (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Folded hands (medium skin tone)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Red heart" aria-label="Emoji: Red heart"> but I wanna address something that really shot my confidence last year - rejection.

This thread is the story of how I got rejected by 8 universities and what you can learn from it.

Lemme just start by saying that this is just the story of my own personal experience and what I think you can learn from it, the sole purpose of this thread is to help anyone who’s in a rough patch now or in the future because I know I would’ve liked to have heard this last year.

Ite so I tell stories pretty long winded so I’ll start in say August 2017. Just got Unit 1 CAPE results, but I always planned on taking a year off so I wasn’t stressing about applying just yet, until I had a chat w relatives and I basically got the opinion I’d be wasting a year.
