Simulation of the worst case scenario in exams

• What is the worst-case scenario?

  • Not getting accepted to any schools, such as the University of Tokyo recommendation application, Tsukuba IB entrance exam application 2021, Keio SFC application
  • Also not getting accepted to any of the schools I want to attend in My Application to a US University.

• What should I do in that case?

  • ① Go to a school that I was accepted to as a backup plan.

    • Personally, I think it’s okay if the type of education (specialized, liberal arts, etc.) is different from what I idealized in my third year of high school.

      • It doesn’t seem necessary to insist on the ideal learning environment in my third year.
      • I think that regardless of the type of education, there can still be happiness in the future.

    • Japan or the United States?

      • Hmm, maybe Japan is better?
        • I feel like I already have quite a strong connection with influential people within Japan.
          • So if the value of connecting with influential people cannot be obtained abroad, it might be better to stay in Japan?
      • (axokxi) I have this image that it’s easier to transfer schools in the US, but I’m not sure.

    • In the case of British or European universities, it seems that you can apply after receiving the results from the United States.

    • What should I do during that year?

      • It depends on the reasons for getting rejected from all the schools.
      • It might be an option to study for the general entrance exams for a year, but I think this is just Optimism Due to Ignorance.

    • Where should I apply to university?

      • Many schools may not accept applications for domestic school recommendations.
      • Scholarships like the Yagyu scholarship may not be available either.
        • Well, if you have passed masason延長, then it should be okay.
        • (There is still the issue of whether it was passed in the worst-case scenario.)
      • What about overseas universities?
        • There shouldn’t be any particular problems.
