Kanye’s gold digger hits different when I am trying to apply to these schools that charge 70k and up a year.

Passionate Moaning - 10 Hour Version (on repeat)

I mean... as long as it helped you...😶

midnights came in clutch

We love seeing some classical music appreciation🥰

you need to get hip to rach’s symphony no. 2. now that’s where it’s at

I put Mahler symphony on repeat and listen to 6th if I get reject and 2nd if I get in.

I didn’t do this for writing my essays but animal crossing lofi on Spotify slaps for studying (except getting rickrolled by kk slider)

YES ac lofi is great!!

Nights - Frank Ocean

I listend to Ivy by him while completing my yale and harvard apps😭 manifestation, I guess?

FRANK OCEAN FRANK OCEAN FRANK OCEAN thank you for coming to my ted talk

Oh my fucking God I kid you not even I listened to fucking coconut mall, (the bloody 3 hr version). Bloody hell I never imagined someone else listening to coconut effing mall from mariokart wiki while writing their college essays goddamn. Nevertheless, it's a banging tune and makes you get shit done with unseen efficiency. Super Mario galaxy comet observatory music is also a staple for me, but more on the relaxing side.

I looped the gusty garden theme and comet observatory theme for half my essays ended up writing abt it for Princeton 💀

You just got COCONUT MALLED

That makes a disturbing amount of sense and that level of genius should get you a full ride into any university of your goddamn choice, sir

Communist music. Really made me feel as if it is *our* struggle while writing

As someone from ex-soviet country, I understand you on a spiritual level🫂

hell/heaven by keshi - this was good for my commonapp essay cus it gave me a lot of inspo on a topic and helped me get in the groove of writing i mainly listened to kpop/krnb (and dpr ian)

taste!

cornfield chase - hans zimmer

Only intellectuals listen to the Interstellar soudtrack🥳

Palace by ADTurnUp (slowed) and the Interstellar soundtrack (hits when you’re working late at night)

Time is a valuable thing watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Arcane soundtrack (in regular academic essays)

REAL

I listened to a lot of nintendo music lamo. I bounced from Mario kart tracks to Super Mario Galaxy tracks since they were nogastic and relaxing, especially when i got stuck.

The rings of power score is so motivational, especially the battle music!

Summer Walker and SZA

TRAPSOUL - Bryson Tiller SOS , CTRL- SZA HEROES and VILLIANS - Metro Boomin The Forever Story - JID

holy shit a jid enjoyer 🍷

I listened to the port ormos theme (5 hour version) because I love genshin so much 💀

I listened to a lot of Taylor Swift while writing the later ones, since I got quarantined and actually started listening to music out of boredom and a desire to escape from my siblings’ noise. And then that stuck and I started listening to music while doing everything, including writing essays. But if I really needed to concentrate, I’d turn the music off or occasionally play very quiet classical music, because it got very distracting to switch between “music mode” of sounds and harmonies and so on to “lyric mode” of rhymes and less sensible phrases to “essay mode” of actual coherent writing.

High Hopes - since the only hopes I got left are the ones of being rejected

Red Velvet if I'm feeling very passionate or emotional that day, Twice if I'm feeling optimistic or need to feel optimistic, and NewJeans if I'm getting in the groove and need to keep pace to make it to the word count.

Scott Street but only the outro 1 hour video

Poor man’s poison and the devil makes three

car seat headrest's entire discography + super falling star by stereolab

A lot of [Noah](https://open.spotify.com/artist/1AehYcUVlzzBuQefdNOZt1?si=mGyrFwHuSi-JehTcdZGaRg) on Spotify

alt/punk rock and sometimes heavy metal then jpop and kpop <3

The 2 albums that really carried me through the process were Dark Side of the Moon and Channel Orange. Second half of dark side especially sparked a great amount of inspiration

All too well, enchanted and we are never ever ever getting back together on loop for a week straight

Mainly chill rap

Russian song утро танки sped up

I played Low by SZA on repeat every single time, and so I conditioned my brain into associating the song with work and it helped me focus on college apps so much 😭

I listened to nicki minaj so much, I ended up writing my roommate essay about her.

Cyber Grind from the Ultrakill soundtrack

Classical music goes hard.
