I’m just diff 😏

#

I feel like that’s just as time wasting as what the two of them do anyway lol

#

IMO the fake argue trolling on a large pretty much public server like this is already on the weirder side, so I feel like assuming that it’s a step further isn’t that preposterous

No I’m firestar

unique ether
# balmy orchid i mean it's j friends talking so would u classify talking to ur friends as a was...

It’s not just friends talking though. There are two nuanced differences. (1) They’re using a large public server to talk rather than dms or text messaging and (2) as many in this thread have pointed out, their conversations in this particular thread are rather unique and akin to trolling lol. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing- trolling is sometimes fun- but it’s pretty much akin to just creating another account and trolling by having your two accounts talk to one another.

Like you mean once you get accepted it’s really hard to change major?

No it doesn’t lol, the group chat has nothing to do with admissions lol

Oh you chose competitive majors right?

@loud quail

loud quail

i chose these two

im praying for the second one

but

#

Wow

loud quail
#

yes

lol both are sub 4 percent

loud quail

im a supreme dumbass

errant bluff
#

So you chose difficult colleges so it’s gonna be hard to get into both right?

good luck

loud quail

#

How can you see the acceptance rate for each major or college

stone moss
#

we have a database

hopefully l&s isn't 2.9% for u guys this year

it's for students

87/367 is what? The ratio of acceptances to applicants?

#

lmao

should just eat some cyanide atp

i can check

Ohhhhhh

Well I’m kind of screwed then

If acceptance rate for college of engineering is 7%

Pray for me guys lol

#

I thought it was more around 15%

#

nah its a crapshoot either way

Nah

That’s what happened to me

loud quail

proobably just get rejected from both lmao

wraith brook

They told me they couldn’t take me for MET but accepted me into EECS

youre going to berkeley right

@wraith brook how did you get EECS early

#

I thought only bussiness stuff came out early, huh

#

(also congrats)

wraith brook
#

lmao

#

Regents @lime crow

lime crow
#

Oh

wraith brook
#

I applied MET originally

lime crow
#

not just stanny reject and berk admit

wraith brook
#

yeah lol

lime crow
#

but berk regents

wraith brook
#

Yea

lime crow
#

lmao

wraith brook
#

But they told me they couldn't get me in MEY

#

MET*

lime crow
#

ik what MET is 💀

wraith brook
#

But they could give EECS + regents

lime crow
#

EECS is still p. good though

wraith brook
#

So I took it lol

lime crow
wraith brook
#

For sure

#

EECS is nuts

#

I'm still shocked

#

I expected UC Irvine best case for me

lime crow
#

bro

#

I am going to cry if I get accepted EECS

#

not because I will be accepted

#

but cuz its EECS

wraith brook
#

The first thing I felt

#

When I saw that letter

#

Was

lime crow
#

I want them to reject me EECS and accept me CS

wraith brook
#

"oh God im dreaming rn, aren't I"

lime crow
#

i thought CS arts is L, didn't know CS arts at Berk is the same as CS as a science major elsewhere

wraith brook
#

Well

#

EECS >

lime crow
#

look at me talking like I will get into either

wraith brook
#

imo

lime crow
#

EECS > for some. For me its extra course load for something I don't wana study

wraith brook
#

EECS is less humanities + CoE network

lime crow
#

true but electric engineering topics

wraith brook
#

"extra course load" is just one EE class

lime crow
#

wait what

wraith brook
#

One extra ee class

#

Bruh

#

Google it

lime crow
#

who the fuck was it who told me there is so much shit

wraith brook
#

EECS 16B

lime crow
#

I should stop trusting a2c

wraith brook
#

and one more physics class

lime crow
#

and actually google my shit

wraith brook
#

PHYS 7B

#

So one extra EE class

lime crow
#

what are both the clases based on?

#

*classes

wraith brook
#

One required physics class

#

PHYS 7b is just AP Phys E&M

lime crow
#

oh

wraith brook
#

EECS 16B is basic EE pt 2

lime crow
#

thats shit I would be taking anyways in other places (already giving the AP for it lol)

lime crow
wraith brook
#

You're required to take EECS 16A in both CS majors

#

EE = electrical engineering

lime crow
#

I see

wraith brook
#

See for yourself

#

Degree reqs

#

It's nothing crazy tbh

#

"Engineering Electives" include the ~20 units of techs you've already been required to do

lime crow
#

its not that crazy than normal cs as some people made it seem

wraith brook
#

So you only have to take 20 units of EECS electives

#

Yeah

#

It's basically the same

#

Just less humanities

#

And required EE pt2 and physics

lime crow
#

as someone who would major in CS as a Science major in other universities, its almost the same

#

appart from the electrical engineering

#

physics and shit is all the same what I would do elsewhere

wraith brook
#

I think EECS is better because I hate humanities classes and the CoE prestige and network

lime crow
#

so berk BS as EECS vs. Bachelors of Science in CS elsewhere is the same except for a few course diff.

wraith brook
#

EECS is a BS

#

CS is a BA

#

At Berkeley

lime crow
#

I meant

#

*thats what I meant

wraith brook
#

EECS is more of a traditional BS in CS elsewhere

lime crow
#

I was comparing the only CS course in BS in berk with other BS CS

wraith brook
#

yeah

lime crow
#

but the way they word it EECS made me think its much different lmao

#

I still have EECS as my first choice (second choice is Arts)

wraith brook
#

Yeah well

#

Both are < 5% AR

#

So gl

lime crow
#

yeah nah I am not getting in anyways

#

Im int'l

#

not <5 but <<5%

wraith brook
#

ooooo

#

I was in state

that doesn't make it any less of an accomplishment

#

I don't know how I didn't notice the ego it throws when I wrote it for the first time (to be fair I never re-read them once)

#

its so cringe

#

I dont wana read these again 😭

#

why did I read them again only to suffer

# lime crow Like SO EGOISTIC

RIP. I think egoistic essays are basically the easiest way to get rejected with good stats. I also submitted essays i didn’t realize sounded egoistic/arrogant to my top choice reach and two safety schools. I got rejected from all three.

lime crow
#

not that far

lime crow
#

probs getting rejected from most UCs cuz of that last essay

#

its more like the last line and first line of the last essay

Oh, okay. All of my essays collectively seemed super egoistic when looked at as a whole(all of them but one which was very bad would have been okay on their own, but collectively they painted a very negative picture)

#

Yeah, it was so irritating especially as they likely have made decisions by now

tame sun
#

i didnt get it

#

They have a huge amount of applicants so it might take time for the email to get sent out to everyone. It could also be in your promotions/junk or something but I doubt it means anything anyways
