= Are Ivy League schools really as depicted in old TV shows? = This might be a reallyquestion, but in older shows like Gossip Girl or whatever, are those the types of people we are REALLY up against? Or is it grossly exaggerated? I think if they made an accurate depiction of Ivy League life on TV or movies, people would be disappointed I read âold TV showâ in the title and thought of I Love Lucy or even Full House or something but in older shows like Gossip Girl Oh yeah, reality a lot less glamorousa lot more boing and sometimes depressing .. J.J. McCullough points out that when tv/movie writers depict schools settings on screen, they are usually showing a version of school that they experience when they were that age, ie a 50 year old screenwriter is writing a scene from their time as a 10-22 year old, and itâs going to look rather different due to the way things have changed since then No, Gossip Girl is the one mainstream TV show that is 100% real with 0 exaggeration in any plot point I will say that UPenn students are known for beingfinancially especially Iâm a new middle class princeton student and no, everyone Iâve met, even the ones from like Exeter, are nice and everyoneâs pretty humble about how they got in == About Community == Members Online Top 1% Ranked by Size == Similar to this post == r/funkopopECCC shared exclusives LEAK (locations in comments)99%1301/1/2018 r/ApplyingToCollegewish i grew up as a rich legacy child on the east coast92%10411/8/2020 r/GossipGirlThere is anamong us98%549/25/2020 r/GossipGirlFinal episode be like100%232/22/2019 r/ApplyingToCollegeBirthday Wish98%192/2/2020 r/teenagersAre American schools actually how they are in the movies?100%8Sep 12 r/startrekAre their really Exocomps in the new Lower Decks cartoon?78%37Sep 8 r/exjwAre Jehovahs Witnesses really Christian's?86%122Aug 19 r/nebelungAre nebelungs actually common?89%23Sep 24 r/CarcassonneAre these Bazaars in the Big Top expansion?92%5Sep 24 r/ApplyingToCollegeEarly Harvard Acceptance?98%515d r/ApplyingToCollegeMy dad said Iâll have to go to community college with my98%1672d r/ApplyingToCollegeHOT TAKE: Needing strangers on A2C to explain your dream98%385d r/ApplyingToCollegeAs you put together your list of schools, don't forget to84%1826d r/ApplyingToCollegeUno reverse.
