    Hey I am an international student applying to fall 2023 and it has been a pleasure to enjoy all of your content throughout this past year. Thank you so much, you changed my life!
  • @wavy582
    The application summary: “From maintaining a 4.0 gpa, to being the founder and president of 3 clubs, and being the captain of the football team I’d say I’m a good fit for your school”
  • I would love a part 2!! I am a little bit younger, a freshman in high school, but i love learning this type of stuff such as your college essays or tips for note taking!
  • Gohar, you’re an actual legend! As a junior in the US High School system, tips like these are AMAZING!!! Thanks for all you do!
  • Thank you so much Gohar!! I'm in junior year of igcse and this has been really helpful for me to gain perspective on how to write a unique college essay, please make a part 2. I would love more insight
  • my tip after going thru college admissions last year: don't underestimate the prompts common app gives you! I know they can feel vague or it might be tempting to go off the board in an attempt to be unique but I used one of the prompts and it inspired a really great essay when I was originally had no clue on what to write about. definitely give them some thought before writing them off!
  • @khalilahd.
    You always give the best tips and as dómine who just started a newsletter I definitely will keep these tips in mind ❤
  • Thank you so much, I’m currently in my last year of high school, wondering about my future and those videos help a lot!

  • @Mrtok522
    Gohar, I don’t know if you’re gonna read this but I just wanted to thank you for your amazing and super helpful tips throughout the past two years for me. I am an international student in the IB program and I’m looking forward to apply in the next college application season. Continue with the fantastic work!
  • When I write my essays this year your tips are gonna save me Gohar. 🙏 You already helped me go from a C average to a A-B average AP student with your study technics (honestly it was about the motivation you put in me) you may just single handedly make me a successful student yet!
  • the pseudointellectual one is really interesting and funny to me, because i'm a creative writer who often write in a (purposefully) exaggerated style in my short stories, because i often write from perspectives of inanimate objects or animals-trees, air, dragons, horses, etc. because i write like this so often in my personal time, it was a huge struggle trying to write college essays. my style became something i actively had to reverse instead of writing 'normally', from what i would say is my 'authentic self', i hard to wire myself to be as 'direct as i possibly can', just so that my points didn't get muddled up and read loike a literal creative writing story. i think my essay, especially my commonqpp, is still verging on the unconventional side. i'm really excited to see how it's going to go! anyways, as usual, thank you for the advice! you've helped me a lot with my essays this year. i am actually going to send in my ED Brown application in approximately 1 hour and 58 minutes. hopefully it will go good :D
  • Gohar Khan uploaded another great full-length video? Christmas came early!
  • Dear gohar, thanks a lot for everything. I'm a Bangladeshi student and I got graduate assistantship for the fall '23. I use to watch your videos during the whole application season and took the tips. Gratefulness. ✨
  • I'm gonna complete my undergraduate study soon. I watch you videos not because i need them, but because i love to hear you.
  • Wow dude just stumbled across ur channel randomly and was shocked u got 1mil subs, Good Stuff bro!
