@fingersarecrossed chancing won’t make much difference. I don’t know why uci didnt pull a ucla and just release all at once. People with higher stats than mine are still waiting like me. Just hope and pray at this point.

Yeah haha… Just very nervous. After hearing about what happened last year. It would be strange to not be anxious. I wish for the best for all of us though!

They say you don’t believe in God until you’re dying or waiting for admission decisions.

if it helps anyone I got my first choice (Computer Science) with a 3.8 UC GPA! It’s possible guys, don’t lose hope. This site sucks for that though, and your health will improve if you avoid logging on.
