<p>ty flopsy... any others?</p>

[lisa_fillmore]

<p>I think floppsy is a bit optimistic. I think UCB and LA are reaches. Write a strong essay and you'll be considered. Good shot at UCSD. Other's are super, super reaches.</p>

[flopsy]

<p>Yes, I am optimistic. However, applicants matching keng's profile usually get into UCB if rejected by UCLA and vice versa, rather than getting admitted into both. That's exactly why I put him as a match for both. I hope you get into UCLA! ^_^</p>

[keng]

<p>anybody else?</p>

[Anthony249]

<p>yes it will, there is a section asking for alumni relations.</p>

[keng]

<p>but it wouldnt be as big as my parents going there right?</p>

[brady]

<p>Ummmm, Ucs not allowed to consider any alumni relations.</p>

[Anthony249]

<p>ack sorry was thinking USC. UC's have some sort of weird point system which is partily computer generated and partily read.</p>
