UC Berkeley 2025 Portal Astrology Discussion

how far from campus were his classes. He’s just worried he won’t get the same college experience, but don’t know how true that is. Was he waitlisted?

Hello everyone, I have a question. One of my friends just got in (she’s an international student). She reported her international entrance exam grade as 90% when it was actually 89.4%. What should she do? And could this get her acceptance rescind?

D25 no ID, rejected. Best of luck to all you baby bears!

No. The pre-reqs weren’t too hard. In fact, he got above average in the Calc 2 class that he took as one of the pre-reqs last semester (there is a website called Berkeley Time where you can see average grades for all classes). He just really enjoyed some of his more writing-based courses and his AP Gov class in high school, so he decided to switch to poli sci. He’s been taking writing and poli sci and an environmental law class this semester and he loves them.

I highly recommend going to Cal Day in April. It’s a lot of fun!

Berkeley weighs factors quite differently from what I understand - much more holistic

my friend said he got the id then it disappeared a couple days ago. he says he got rejected. is he lying? he is the type to gatekeep

He was not waitlisted. It’s at 1995 University Ave., Golden Bear Center not a super long walk and there is easy bus service. It’s only 1 semester of 8 and other than the location they do everything else exactly the same as all other students. Does your son have the option to opt in to FPF waitlist OR regular waitlist?

Am I impacted by this if I’m in the college of L&S? I don’t like what I’m hearing.

Thanks for your support and tough love :+1:
