I’m on a cell phone and I’m SO sorry that I have spell check tured off because what I really wanna say gets changed to sick head
I know that some of us are upset, but I think that the best thing we can do is stay positive and hope for the best
I hate to be a bearer of (??) news, but i know you guys are anxious as I once was(received my verdict for that school already lol) . but UCI just emailed me about the UCI Anteater Reception in my area for admitted students that you have to rvsp for. Check your emails!
Stanford thread must be lit. I’ll go check it out.
Edit: Stanford thread sucks
I don’t think fighting is the best time to label cc goers as slacker is just ignorant college is expensive and cc is good alternative also there’s nothing wrong with a 24 act score scores shouldn’t label someone’s intelligence… Let’s just all stay positive bringing someone down bc of scores or going to cc isn’t right let alone going to help either side
Kinda agree with @and1kingbro
@Core2Q Yeah UCI thread is lit right now
yeeeee, I just searched thread and checked that mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering has been out already
Deff rejected 
@alwaysgrn Is that how it works?
@Core2Q
I can’t be sure but that’s what people are saying
people are getting rejected in chunks after all the acceptances are out
It happened last year 
Not all people who go to CCs are slackers. But I can understand wanting to not go there — there will definitely be more slackerish people there than in some four years. It makes a big difference who you are surrounded by, and although CCs are definitely better financially, I can understand why a lot of people want to go to a four-year as a way of ensuring that they will be interacting with a higher percentage of motivated, intelligent people.
Applied for electrical engineering. still waiting.
Well those are my two majors. Mech-e and Aero-e.
I’m way ahead of you haha. Went through last year’s thread from around today’s date to the very end. Based on what I read, there will be a huge storm of rejections coming. Last year’s thread had a much better sense of camaraderie I have to say lol
Really sorry to say this but it’s ignorant people like you that don’t deserve what you get. Not everyone that goes to CC is a slacker. Learn to respect people.there are many reason one can choose to go to CC and it doesn’t mean they are stupid. Graduating from a CC with my AA in 2 months with a 3.7 GPA. Your so pathetic get a life.
@Core2Q Hey! same majors lol.
Yeah that’s what I heard exactly. You ready for the rejection or waitlist?
I’m so nervous rn cuz uci is my lowest bet and I’ve been already got rejected by 4 colleges out of 8
Every day for the last week i’ve been waking up thinking about the UCI admission letter LMAO
Omg…the way my cc notification was blowing up, I thought decisions were in! All the while, you’re all just fighting :((
I love the irony in that your username is love/hate XDD
I personally feel that the test scores are more apparent of the applicant at the time of application. Assuming you took the SAT/ACT junior/senior year, it will give an accurate picture of what you learned in high school. Of course, GPA is important too, but it cannot be standardized across all schools. Some have grade inflation. Others cannot schedule students into AP classes despite offering them. Some schools weigh honors classes, others do not. A student can also get a “tough” teacher for a subject and get a lower grade than if they had had an “easy-A” teacher. The admissions committee can see some of these disparities, but not all.
Also, you can drastically mess up your GPA by having a bad year, and you essentially just have to live with it. If you aren’t satisfied with your test scores, you can always retake.
@sakurameow Such extreme emotions in this process!
