I’m really debating between UCB and UCSD… which is better in general and for chem?
D accepted, Bioengineering. didn’t get any emails on sunday.
1500 SAT (single sitting = mentioned it on her essay) 790 Math II 3.96/4.29/4.50 UC GPA.
didn’t think she would get in since she only took 1 subject test (didn’t know B/LA recommended 2).
for the future applicants, it is possible to get into B with only 1 subject test despite popular belief.
applied to 7 schools this year (all bioEg), accepted to 5 (UCB,SD,SB,I & D), waitlisted at 2 (LA & CP SLO) but will be attending CAL regardless.
I GOT IN! and with that, my college admissions journey is officially over! for anyone wondering, i did get the email on sunday, so i kind of suspected it already.
ACCEPTED: UCLA, UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara, UC Santa Cruz, Cal State LA, Cal State Dominguez Hills, and Cal State Long Beach.
REJECTED: USC and Cal Poly!
congratulations to everyone who got in!
same got accepted to College of Natural Resources!

Ive been wondering, did anyone who got accepted submit any LORs without them asking you to? I was always debating whether or not I should send them but I always feared that would hurt my chances since they specifically told us not to do it
got in, but i’m going to UCLA. it’s always been my dream school and it’s 20 minutes away from me so i’m excited to stay in my city. regardless, Berkeley is amazing and i hope that everyone who goes has the most amazing time! congratulations to everyone once again, you’re going to do great things!
