ALL UC MEGATHREAD 🐻🐮🐴🐻🐱🐶🔱🤠🐌 (2022-2023)

[vestal plume]

aw none of my lacs come out this week

[round herald]

Im waiting to login till people say the decisions are out

[calm atlas]

lmfao contact them asap or check ur spam

[round herald]

Then maybe I’ll check on Saturday

[calm atlas]

what will I do if u get in

U*

they wont know if they get in 💀

[round herald]

🤷‍♂️ I wont go I guess

[calm atlas]

they dont got portal access lmaooo

[round herald]

I take usc over ucla

[calm atlas]

usc way better

what's yo major again

[round herald]

Biochem hoping to go premed

[limber magnet]

I'd take usc over any uc prob

[calm atlas]

w

ucs are terrible cuz student teacher ratio sucks

if u get aid USC better than the UCs except if ur cs or engineering in Berkeley

[round herald]

Plus I already emailed one of the peeps at keck to ask about emt certification programs and all that jazz and she was super nice

[calm atlas]

berkeley is practically a prison

[limber magnet]

Berkley environment sucks though

[vestal plume]

true ngl

[calm atlas]

yeah but name recognition 😹😋😹😋

and clout

is it worth it tho

[vestal plume]

you already got into usc???

is that not enough clout

[calm atlas]

No 😈

there is no such thing as enough clout

my friends sent a pic of their dorms and that shit looks like a jail cell

yeah

[vestal plume]

atp you should print out your acceptances onto a shirt and wear it

[limber magnet]

subjecting myself to 4 more years of stress not worth for more "clout" imo

[calm atlas]

the way to maximize clout

is to go to community college

but you can be clouted in the Asian mom hangouts

[vestal plume]

the wechat posts 🤩

[round herald]

SO TRUE

[grave lodge]

my friend literally rides the bus to uc berk

instead of dorms

[round herald]

my neighbors Asian mom was asking so many questions cause their kid is a junior 😭

[calm atlas]

"You know my friend's son got into Berkeley" type shit

[round herald]

Poor guy was getting mauled

[calm atlas]

You become the villain of a future a2cer

a bar they will never reach

[round herald]

We are helping them by giving them a motivational villain origin story

[calm atlas]

Cuz Berkeley will be a lottery when they apply

[round herald]

Dang should I add usc to my name

Seems appropriate

[whole musk]

does anyone know whether irvine/sandiego/LA will actually release this week

heard rumours it might be delayed a week

[limber magnet]

i dont think anyone knows for sure

[calm atlas]

nah they postponed releasing to march 32

[stray apex]

u mean april 0

[calm atlas]

my bad

Why do schools actually release on April 1 tho

the whole thing a joke

[grave lodge]

to give u anxiety

[round herald]

“Late March” =April 1st

[pallid ermine]

yooooo californians the fuck happened with silicon valley bank lmao

[calm atlas]

why are there so many USCs in here

[round herald]

Um so

[stray apex]

they got bankrupted

[round herald]

🤓

💰

[stray apex]

is what i heard

[round herald]

Bank collapsed

[stray apex]

tho i only took a glance at the issue

[round herald]

No bueno

[calm atlas]

I invested in it and my bad luck causes the bank to collapse

[calm atlas]

ucla this week

[pallid ermine]

nah bro it seems like congress is running to mitigate the consequences

f

like

its really bad

one nyc bank failed last night too

lmao

[round herald]

Didnt have enough cash to pay depositors

[west sorrel]

Great depression V2

[limber magnet]

it was a bank run 🤷‍♂️

[whole musk]

anything for LA/SD?

[round herald]

But yeah gov stepped in very fast

[whole musk]

mb Irvine/SD

but they usually come out on the same day

[calm atlas]

I think the decisions will be out before the next school year starts 🙂

[calm atlas]

no idea im asking my friends cuz they usually got connects at ao centers

[lethal vine]

i have never been more terrified of a friday

[limber magnet]

if it makes u feel better ur decision is prob already decided

[jagged wind]

dw the friday after this one is going to be even worse 😭

[tender elm]

how is that supposed to make someone feel better lmao

[limber magnet]

Like no point in stressing cuz its already decided 🤷‍♂️

[tender elm]

...

ok

anyways

[dense flare]

soooo many colleges

also ivy day

on the 30th

[tender elm]

banner for friday
assuming these schools release

[rare carbon]

im going to piss

not my top three all releasing on the same day

never manifested harder in my life 😩 ucla ik u want me

[bitter zephyr]

more like you want CSU Westwood

@tender elm the banner for CSU La Jolla, CSU Westwood, and CSU Suburbia is here

[regal grove]

pissing is not a form of manifestation

[bitter zephyr]

yes

it's a form of fear

[regal grove]

if u want to piss

once u get rejected

[tender elm]

piss in a bottle

[regal grove]

print out the decision letter

and piss on it

[bitter zephyr]

lmao

[calm atlas]

why do ucs wait so logg no to release decisions

like will it really kill them to release it early

[bitter zephyr]

try reading 100k+ applications

I've had worse waits than waiting for college admissions

[calm atlas]

like

they orolly already made a decision

on my app

and I wanna know lol

[tender elm]

They did

Ain’t no way they’re still reading apps atp

[dense flare]

any portal astrology?

[manic lance]

The stars have not aligned for you today.

Instead of doing portal astrology, why don't you astrologize your chances of going outside?

Used 20 times.

[dense flare]

DONT MAKE FUN OF ME GUYS

[bitter zephyr]

The Sun God of CSU La Jolla must determine any astrology

[dense flare]

cool

[tender elm]

God step in

[bitter zephyr]

CSU La Jolla portal astrology = Sun God

@dense flare to maximize chances of getting into CSULJ, come to campus and go to the sun god shrine

walk backwards under the sun god statue

and pray to z sun god

[tender elm]

Thx for the reminder

I need to do that before finals

[sharp orchid]

whats the command

[manic lance]

The stars have not aligned for you today.

Instead of doing portal astrology, why don't you astrologize your chances of going outside?

Used 21 times.

[sharp orchid]

ah found it nice

[gilded rain]

instead of getting accepted, get some vitamin d

ik yall cs kids haven’t seen the light in years

[sharp orchid]

lmfaoo

am I an exception as a CS kid who runs 10km per day

or wait- is me touching grass the reason MIT will reject me instead?

[frank storm]

Do we know UCLA and UCSD dates ?

[gaunt void]

Nope

[sharp orchid]

UCLA is usually a friday

[rough gyro]

is it probable that UCLA and UCSD will be this friday or could it be next friday

ucsd said mid march tho so idk

[tender raft]

ppl expect both this friday

but nothing confirmed

[rough gyro]

oh ok

[pallid ermine]

bro

someone just recieved a damn uci likely

in celebration area

did anyone else get this

[sharp orchid]

UCI likely?

are you srue?

[pallid ermine]

check celebration area

[zealous sinew]

its location dependent so dw if u didnt get it

[pallid ermine]

idk if its a likely or not but

yeah

[sharp orchid]

Its just a location dependant invitation

its not to do with admissions, atleast so it seems

oh wait, it does say admitted kdis

*kids

ig they are telling them in advance since the reception of that location is literally 1 day after the decision release, you know?

[whole musk]

That kind of confirms Irvine too

Because that email implies people would be admitted before the 18th

[calm atlas]

33%?

or is trhis the weing stats

im seeing 9% and 5.7% from other places

weird

[whole musk]

Think this is more correct

There’s no way UCLA admit rate is that high

[calm atlas]

is it 9% for 5.7%?

i have like 0 hopes if its 5.7%

😭

[whole musk]

I mean I think I saw somewhere that it was total 9% or something last year but I don’t know how much truth there is to that

I mean whatever the percentage is LA is just very difficult

[calm atlas]

intl?

goddamn man

this weekend

will either be really good

[whole musk]

No no total

[calm atlas]

or really bad

[whole musk]

Hopefully good 🙏

[calm atlas]

🙏

[calm atlas]

omg

[real rock]

not really lol

its like a specified one kinda lol

cuz its an istanbul meeting

for accepted kids

so id say if theres no alumini in ur city/town/area

then u prob wont get any likely email (if there are any)

[vague moth]

those are MBA acceptance rates

[whole musk]

anyone know if we have to complete this for UCSD?

[regal torrent]

bro it says required

[bitter zephyr]

Oof

[kind kestrel]

where is that

tf

[vestal turret]

portal bro

[vestal turret]

https://tenor.com/view/ronaldo-reaction-golden-balls-for-example-golden-balls-ronaldo-i-think-i-deserve-ronaldo-cristiano-ronaldo-gif-24604069

i will love it

and i think i deserve it

[whole musk]

it's on the portal

just finished

now they want my immigration documents

[calm atlas]

which portal

[whole musk]

ucsd

portal

[calm atlas]

oh

btw in the uc thing

sec

[kind kestrel]

nothing on mine

[whole musk]

are you in state

[kind kestrel]

wait r u intl

yes i’m in state

[whole musk]

no i'm in state 💀

[kind kestrel]

wtf

[whole musk]

bro what

[kind kestrel]

i have never seen that shit

[whole musk]

are you a citizen

or permanent resident

[kind kestrel]

yes

[calm atlas]

will this shit affect my applciation lol

i wrote yes

by accident

but im intl

[whole musk]

oh

[kind kestrel]

citizen

[whole musk]

hmm i'm PR so maybe that

geniunely have no idea though

[kind kestrel]

u stressed me out

[whole musk]

since you're intl idt it should matter too much

[calm atlas]

5.7% acceptance

[whole musk]

i was stressed out too because none of my peers had this pop up

[calm atlas]

😭

[whole musk]

except me

[kind kestrel]

that’s prob bc ur not a citizen im gonna assume

they prob ask that for PR

[grizzled stirrup]

Technically everyone would like to be considered for California Residency

[tough jolt]

have u watched medici

[whole musk]

yea okay

sorry for stressing you out

[kind kestrel]

all good

[whole musk]

[pallid ermine]

uvarmom

[calm atlas]

try

tru

wouldn’t complain if they give me us passport…

[grizzled stirrup]

Don't mind paying that in-state tuition 🤌

[wet sandal]

yes do it asap

[quiet night]

I need to switch ong

Have to pay 70k for one year and hopefully only 30-40k for the other ones once i switch citizenship

[grizzled stirrup]

You're sure you're going to get citizenship?

[sterile horizon]

How can u check Davis tuition cost

I still haven’t gotten mine and fafsa now is approved

So I turned in everything

[stray apex]

i got packaged after a while

i think u just wait

[bitter zephyr]

you have a green card?

[sterile horizon]

Like do I gotta commit

It says June

[warm burrow]

you didn't apply Fafsa

to Davis

[sterile horizon]

I did

I had to add it on Friday

And Davis received it today

[quiet night]

No I mean to California citizenship

I'm ohio citizen rn

[calm atlas]

i would wait bc i did my fafsa back in december and my award letter was shown yesterday

[quiet night]

Are you still able to lmao

[bitter zephyr]

That’s a weird way to say it @quiet night

[quiet night]

I didnt turn it in

[quiet night]

Ig

Would've been better to say residency

[bitter zephyr]

Idk how that’ll work but ok

[quiet night]

You can switch residency to California after a year of staying there

[warm burrow]

the priority deadline passed

[quiet night]

Is there a regular deadline

[warm burrow]

idk

[stray apex]

same

[sterile horizon]

Wait though Davis acceptance was last Friday so it comes after acceptance letter right

Usually not before

[grave lodge]

u get predicted for scholarship

fafsa isnt shown till june after u accept pretty sure

so whatever else scholarship shown has nothing really to do with fafsa i think

[sterile horizon]

Ahhh. So if I got the cal grant of 13k that’s what imma get for now

And until I accept I won’t know my full cost

[grave lodge]

yep

i think

[sterile horizon]

Bruhhhh

That’s bs

[mortal wasp]

okay guys genuine question i work sm now and i don’t want to take as many courses in school anymore and i was thinking of dropping my stats class bc i already have all my math credits, i had an A last trimester but tbh i’m so exhausted, now the main point is, will this affect my decisions ?? even if it’s a dropped course i don’t require

[rare carbon]

What major are u

[subtle chasm]

[round herald]

😭 I dropped chem as a Biochem major but I was sick for a month of school so I missed too much

[calm atlas]

ur fucked bro. cooked like some barbeque chicken. The second u drop your courses all your universities gon drop you.

[flat storm]

Don’t drop

[calm atlas]

my bad, twas but a silly jest at my fellow constituent

[celest jacinth]

what’s the next uc comin out?

[calm atlas]

UCI UCSD n UCLA this Friday most likely

[late zinc]

anyone know when sdsu is releasing?

[tender elm]

r u guys excited?

BIG day

[bitter zephyr]

The big CSU’s will be releasing

[tender elm]

yuhhh

[eager violet]

You will not believe

[regal grove]

can u confirm ucsd this friday

[gilded rain]

watch ucla cockblock your banner by deciding to release on the 24th

[regal torrent]

i'd worry about uci

i have a nagging feeling they're switching it up this year

[tender elm]

Someone said UCI sent confirmations to counselors

[regal grove]

who is "someone"

[tender elm]

I always have a plan B 😎

[tender elm]

Someone here sent a screenshot

[regal grove]

where

[tender elm]

Idk

It’s farrrrr up

[gilded rain]

W benz with the backup plan 🥶

[bitter zephyr]

I’ll see

[flat storm]

when will SDSU be releasing? 😭😭

[late zinc]

ikr i’ve been waiting forever

[eager violet]

For uci is there an application you have to make for their honors college? Or is like other uc’s where it just happens automatically when you apply

[tender elm]

It doesn’t automatically happen when you apply

They will consider you if you meet the criteria and are admitted

[eager violet]

Epic

[calm atlas]

scared none of these will happen

and they all push for the 24th

imagine they do

that'd be crazy

usc ucla ucsd and uci

bye

[vestal turret]

whens ucb man

[calm atlas]

the 30th

i just realized why they did it the thursday and not the friday

well maybe its just for my school district

cesar chavez day is friday the 31st then spring break

works out well i guess

[gaunt oasis]

do y’all happen to know if uci + ucsd send an email w the status, or an email to check ur portal, or no email and u just need to check ur portal

[calm atlas]

i think the last option

[gaunt oasis]

ah ok

[calm atlas]

they dont send an email w the status as far as ik

thats a davis thing tho

[late shale]

When does UCLA and UCSD come out?

[calm atlas]

friday most likely

[gaunt oasis]

hopefully this fri

[late shale]

Is it confirmed or based on prev years?

[calm atlas]

previous years

[gaunt oasis]

based on prev years, historically it’s always been the 3rd fri of march

[calm atlas]

they very well could push to the 24th

but that'd be crazy

usc and ucla in 1 day

[gaunt oasis]

oml

[regal torrent]

internal sources say ucsd is friday

[regal grove]

Pranav?

[tender elm]

🤫

[regal torrent]

him and a friend who's getting emails talking about scholarships releasing saturday

students are also receiving emails to help volunteer during admit day

[regal grove]

@tender elm walk into the admissions office and tell them to accept me

[tender elm]

Cream pies at cafe ventanas

[karmic meteor]

How do we know if Irvine la and sd are coming Friday

Is there any source

[tender elm]

We don’t know

But we can make predictions based on the past

[grave lodge]

there was an email above that hinted for uci and smone claiming that a friend in admissions said ucla released this fri at 5 pm, but mostly unconfirmed rumors

[tender elm]

the "friend of a friend of my uncles dad who works as an AO"...

[grave lodge]

yes so just rumors

[karmic meteor]

Ah ok

Damn it doesn’t even feel like mid March

[grave lodge]

if not this fri, definitely the next

[karmic meteor]

I don’t feel ready for all these decisions lol

[sly sluice]

im gonna cry if i don’t bag UCLA or JHU 😭

im like starting to panic

[grave lodge]

my top is ucsd bc i like my major there

so like ill be fine reject from la or berk

[tender elm]

u should honestly go in with 0 expectations

[sly sluice]

i know i should but like… i’m so stressed i just need the reassurance that i’m capable of getting in somewhere good. my best so far is a waitlist from uchicago :/

[karmic meteor]

UCs are the only schools I care about, despite applying to all the ivies, because I have 0 efc

[bitter zephyr]

UCI sends an email to check portal and a admit email a couple hours later

UCSD does the same

[sterile horizon]

I should rlly pay to know the release date from my friends dad ucla ao

[bitter zephyr]

pay that extra $$$$ to guarantee the acceptance

[calm atlas]

friends uncle whos in the ao office said its friday b4 5 pm

this friday

when does berkeley come out?

[grave lodge]

30th

[sterile horizon]

Wait fr fr?

That’s for ucla?

[sterile horizon]

Fr I should

[vestal plume]

i think they also said this yesterday but idk how true it is

i think we can guess that it comes out this friday but we know no other information

[west sorrel]

Benz thumb reveal 🥵🥵

[sharp orchid]

tf is CSU la jolla

(MIT reject here btw)

MIT and caltech reject, just gotta wait for the stanny rejection and hope it translates into a Berk acceptance

[whole musk]

Apparently a reader for the UCLA Alumni Scholarship said they’re starting to read applications starting 18th; since they read only those submitted by admitted students, implies that LA decisions will likely drop Friday

[sharp orchid]

cal' simping

(gave up simping for stanny, cuz its a bit too high, berk more realistic)

[whole musk]

Feel like SD might drop next week

[west sorrel]

Feels like this week

Cuz I heard they’re saying “are you ready for decisions” or something on social media

[whole musk]

They said late March on social media too which is confusing

Hopefully some counselor can get an email like Davis

[jade fossil]

Yeah I think my year this meant this week, they don't read Alumni apps until after admission? iirc

UCLA just releases

No notice

Besides the portal goes down a few hours before

We didn't know if UCLA was releasing, UCSD came out earlier that day and we had to wait to see (and it was painful bc it didn't come out right when it was "supposed to")

Davis tells your counselor day of

Nobody else does

[whole musk]

Yeah no the reader said they need a list of admitted students

So I’m like 95% sure LA is this week

[jade fossil]

I'm trying to remember if they release Alumni scholarship with decisions

Because they might

[whole musk]

Hmm

[jade fossil]

I'm a sophomore now so I was 2 years ago

Pretty sure we got decisions 3/18

or something like that

Even though there was hella more apps than normal

[whole musk]

Did something come out for Irvine

[wet sandal]

i want ucsd too

[jade fossil]

You'll know for sure day of

The portal goes down in the early morning

Like completely down

Not Berkeley presumably?

They always go alter

later

Yeah

[warm burrow]

SB confirmed 21 tho

[whole musk]

Well except SB and LA

*Berk

[jade fossil]

Makes sense

yea UC admissions is a blood bath

good luck everyone

ucla <3

we have a good basketball team

[regal torrent]

i'll take any of the uc's

except ucr (already got in), ucsc (didn't apply), ucm (autoadmit)

[bitter zephyr]

Search it up

[jade fossil]

ucla won't come right at 5

don't expect the portal to load

more like 5:15 - 5:30

[whole musk]

This is last year

[west sorrel]

Did they email right after?

Or a few hours later

[jade fossil]

not for a few hours

ucla sends decisions but the portal crashes lol

that's why i said 5:15

uci does separate

they do acceptances, then wl, then denials

[sharp orchid]

UCSD?

Guys UCLA is coming out soon I think

maybe this week

cuz they stopped allowing withdrawing

[bitter zephyr]

Right on

[sharp orchid]

(also their portal is hella hard to access istg)

[jade fossil]

hahah

i wanna application read next fall/winter

i might

[young onyx]

ucla has the worst portal out of all my schools

[sharp orchid]

CUHK here

[jade fossil]

they also get the most applicants

[sharp orchid]

Look at their login page....

😭 how are they one of the most prestigious universities in asia

[remote saddle]

after mit i am now a dedicated ucb simp 🙏

[jade fossil]

ucb overrated

[sharp orchid]

Stanny and UC B simp here

[jade fossil]

go bruins

[sharp orchid]

(gonna get rejected just for calling it UCB lmao)

[celest jacinth]

after stanny reject i am now a ucla simp

[remote saddle]

same dawg

except imma get rejected by stanford fosho

[celest jacinth]

well i was always a ucla simp but now my entire simping is going towards blue and yellow school with bear

[remote saddle]

so pls let ucb accept me

[remote saddle]

ong

[jagged wind]

guys my app cant be found

[celest jacinth]

victor and i the same person fr

[jagged wind]

when i log into ucla

[celest jacinth]

OH????

wait

what the fuck

that’s so weird

[celest jacinth]

.

[jagged wind]

what?????? i dont understand

[celest jacinth]

oh.

GIRL

CALL UC

[jagged wind]

im in trouble LOL

[jade fossil]

that be the wrong portal?

[celest jacinth]

THEY CLOSW IN 10 MINS

[jade fossil]

or nah

[sharp orchid]

same, I stand a semi chance at UCB

[jagged wind]

it was working like a week ago

[remote saddle]

maybe with our combined power we can get waitlisted by stanford

[jagged wind]

ooo wait true let me do that

[celest jacinth]

REA reject, sadly. you have fun tho 🥹

[sharp orchid]

more like do the same case on ur UC app

[remote saddle]

i was deferred but i had no updates so im auto reject bruh

[remote saddle]

noooooooooooo

[jagged wind]

omg thank god it worked thank you alibi

[jade fossil]

make some tf

[remote saddle]

my comrade has fallen

[sharp orchid]

for you, for me the first alphabet is uppercase for some reason

lower case doesn't let me in

odd

[jade fossil]

even if ur update was "i shat a log as big as a cow" you probably have an update

[remote saddle]

dawg im southern hemisphere i graduated school in november

[remote saddle]

well i mean i did sent one in

just not a very outstanding one

[sharp orchid]

🤨

lets go?

[jade fossil]

stanford doesnt rlly defer

so

[remote saddle]

lmao

thats why i applied

coz i hate deferral

but then got deferred anyway

🗿

[celest jacinth]

tis okay 😮‍💨

[sharp orchid]

intl + stanny defer = high af chances of getting in

stanny only defers u if they are REALLY considering you unlike most places

[remote saddle]

naw dawg dont give me hope like that

that just makes the rejection hurt even more

[sharp orchid]

and as an Intl, almost no one gets in without defer. and Intl defers are more likely to be admits than national defers, statistically.

Ofc there is still a chance of rejection

but its more 50-50 now than not

[celest jacinth]

no this is lit true

[remote saddle]

😭

[celest jacinth]

you got thsi

like

i was so salty a couple months ago trust but like

you got this

[remote saddle]

thank yall so much 🥹

but yea

[celest jacinth]

i hope you get in 🙏

[remote saddle]

i hope u can get into whatever schools u have coming up as well

we got this fr

😤

[celest jacinth]

ucla 😜😜

[remote saddle]

ucla is such a vibe ong

[celest jacinth]

i visited

[remote saddle]

i love their campus

[celest jacinth]

their whole 8.6% acceptance rate tho…

[remote saddle]

it used to be my dream school but then i decided to switch to cs

[celest jacinth]

me too it was beautiful and one of my coworkers ended up going there and he loved it

[remote saddle]

so now im simping for ucb

[celest jacinth]

ohh i’m premed lol

[dim idol]

Does anyone know if ucla is coming out on Friday

[celest jacinth]

yes

[remote saddle]

ya i used to want to do premed but then i wanted to do ai lol

[celest jacinth]

bc they’re reading alumni scholarships starting the 18th

so it’s prob friday

also portal changed for ucla

twinnem

[remote saddle]

ucla is goated for med ngl

[celest jacinth]

i want it so bad 😭😭

[remote saddle]

thats why it was my dream school

i love the colour scheme as well

ngl ucla has the best colour scheme of any ucs

so good

if only i didnt switch to cs 😔

[calm atlas]

yes 100%

[celest jacinth]

job security

[remote saddle]

chatgpt freaked me out

[calm atlas]

ion know why i chose straight bio for half the ucs

lowkey stupid

[remote saddle]

the pace of ai development is scary

[calm atlas]

esp since im tryna do public health--> premed instead

[bitter zephyr]

of UC Skid Row simps is high on this server

[tender elm]

✋

[bitter zephyr]

We have a Public Health school now at UCSD

[calm atlas]

yeah thats why i applied there. hopefully i get in

usually like 20 people get in from my school

public healths lowkey hella interesting and worst case its way more stable and secure than bio

cuz what CAN you do if you do bio and are tryna go premed

ig you can become a teacher or do some research

but even thats comp af

ong same lmao

org chem isnt that bad its js alot of pure memorization

i mean you can do public health

cdc

or like sum other stuff

yeah thats true

not that good

[bitter zephyr]

it's usually the gateway major for Pre-Med

[calm atlas]

worst worst worst case js switch majors lol

[bitter zephyr]

Engineering will kill your GPA

take my word for it

[calm atlas]

yeah . it used to be bio now its pub health

[calm atlas]

yeah thats why alot of companies dont care abt your gpa for engineering

probably 3rd year

cuz by then

youll have alot of general courses done

but that also means a little bit extra of a grind in 4th year

[west sorrel]

What’s the difference

Between public health and bio?

[eager violet]

philosophy is the new big thing for premeds!!!

[calm atlas]

pub health is more related to national/global application of medicine

thats the easiest way to explain it

but pretty much

in bio you learn animal/plant bio and stuff like that

and in public health you learn policies and learn how medicine kinda works

yeah clinical hours are hard i heard from friends

what counts as clinical hours tho?

im looking for an emt course rn but its lowkey hard to fit into my schedule

oh youll also need research adn stuff like that in college

for premed

the only con is that itll be hard to do at ucs

cuz the faculty to student ratio is terrible at ucs

so research opps will be hard to get

sb/sd

la/berk is a reach for anyone

so def not a target for me

[bitter zephyr]

CSU Isla Vista and CSU La Jolla

I c

[calm atlas]

tbh i dont want to go to uci

bro

no way lmfao

thats lowkey crazy

same lmao

[young onyx]

and its even scarier that this in only the start

[remote saddle]

fr

[young onyx]

every year there are groundbreaking advances and it doesnt look it will slow down anytime soon

[remote saddle]

the next decades will be insane

[remote saddle]

im expecting agi by 2030-2035

[young onyx]

I think its possible but it would much simpler than the human brain

[remote saddle]

yea def but i dont think the human brain is good blueprint for agi anyways

like we have a lot of redundant stuff

[sterile horizon]

Ucla acceptance rate lower than last years 9%?

What’s ur guess

[young onyx]

true

[remote saddle]

by agi i dont rly mean human-like or conscious or anything like that i just mean an optimization algorithm that can effectively handle and integrate multimodal inputs

[calm atlas]

its gonna be worse this year fs

[young onyx]

oh yeah by then there will def be something like that

[remote saddle]

gpt 4 is arguably already a proto agi, just pretty weak

[young onyx]

like gpt7 or 8 lol

[remote saddle]

maybe even earlier lmao

[remote saddle]

6-7 would be my bet

[wet sandal]

i think ucla had less applications this yr

and they r accepting more ppl

i might be wrong

[calm atlas]

im not getting in cuz i was forced to do bio for ucla

[young onyx]

theres going to be that genius that figues all of this out

[calm atlas]

they didnt have my major

[regal grove]

Accepting more in states

[wet sandal]

like it should be

[remote saddle]

even if there isnt the sheer amount of hype and money pumped into it will get us there lol

[calm atlas]

hopefully thats the case

well they probably gonna reject like everyone from my school cuz like last year 15 ppl got in and they all took other schools over ucla

[young onyx]

lol just like the space race. there just so much going to happen in the next couple of decades its actually crazy

[regal grove]

It is but not by much. Cuz the California governor passed some law that forces them to accept more

[calm atlas]

so the yield isnt looking that good

[remote saddle]

fr fr

the singularity is exciting

but also scary

[calm atlas]

oh ye i heard abt that

[regal grove]

Does ucsc come out tomorrow?

[remote saddle]

it can go many ways

[regal grove]

Based on last years date

[young onyx]

yeah

[karmic meteor]

It’s already out tho

[vestal plume]

only the first wave

[karmic meteor]

Feb 27th no?

[vestal plume]

that was the first wave

not everyone has received a decision yet

[karmic meteor]

Ok

[limber magnet]

wait it comes out tmr?

[vestal plume]

supposedly

😭 😭

not even portal astrology just decision speculation

[calm atlas]

yas

[regal grove]

Bay Area people

Is ur power out

[wise cypress]

It was but it’s back

[regal grove]

Mine is predicted to be out for two days 😭

[hardy edge]

what does

[wise cypress]

How many people got decisions from SC on the 27th was that just like early honors shit

[wise cypress]

Omg 😭

[limber magnet]

it was for about an hour

[calm atlas]

so signs pointing to ucla and ucsd releasing friday.. wb irvine?

[limber magnet]

apparently ucsc but not sure

[calm atlas]

ucsd admissions insta posting that one vid means it's basically a given

[wise cypress]

Last year UCSC came out 15th apparently

[regal grove]

I think northeastern may drop tomorrow too

[wise cypress]

SDSU drops sometime this week

[wise cypress]

It should be tomorrow sdsu drops actually

[regal grove]

Yep got that too

[runic ermine]

do courseload changes affect admission

i was gonna take a MVC at CC, but i chose to pick up a job that lined up with my career interests slightly better, is that still fine?

[celest spoke]

Meanwhile I currently have a 71 in AP calc ab 😭

[calm atlas]

did u put that on the uc app

bc if u did i think u should tell each school

[runic ermine]

i did

and i did that 2

[red beacon]

i didnt do my srar and i still got the email wat

[celest spoke]

What even is multivariable calculus. Why even is multivariable calculus.

[calm atlas]

i was more anxious about uc decisions last week but davis acceptance was a relief

[eager violet]

uc david 😍

[vague moth]

Deadass how do you know?

[soft beacon]

sorry im just salty

[stiff scaffold]

Source?

[thorny path]

just bombed my test in this class 😍

[vestal plume]

nope luckily

a tree downed a power line by my school though and power went out

[inland osprey]

wait so ucla comes out this friday?

[vestal plume]

me

[thorny path]

normal unit vectors are fake anyway

its not real

[vestal plume]

[eager violet]

Vectors are baffling

Jaw dropping

Gobstopped

[vestal plume]

we just started transformations and i'm like damn

idk whats going on in that class

[young onyx]

linear algebra?

[vestal plume]

mvc

[young onyx]

oh

[eager violet]

What’s mvc

[young onyx]

I already forgot abt multi and its only been 1 month

[vestal plume]

multivariable calculus

[eager violet]

Oh

[grave lodge]

decided not to take mvc and instead use ap cs a as my forth year of math

i was so done with math

dont regret

[tender elm]

u log in and u see the decision

[vestal plume]

scary

[calm atlas]

that's wild

It's fine

I will go 6/6 on the UCs.

If I don't I will not live.

[west badger]

fire

thats my plan asw

[calm atlas]

w

[west badger]

except i know it aint gonna workout

so im planning on ways to not live

but its chill

wtf r LOCI's

[calm atlas]

letter of continued interest 🤓

and no I don't think ucs do locis

[regal torrent]

according to @tender elm some do, other's don't

ucd asked for one but ucsd didn't when he got waitlisted

[tender elm]

Apparently Davis stopped this year

[wise cypress]

I thought I heard somewhere it’ll be out by the 15th

[tender elm]

I don’t think any of them have a LOCI anymore

Pretty much

I sent them over email too tho lol

I was paranoid

Idk what they did w it

Probably ignored it

No

[celest jacinth]

ucsd has appeals

[regal torrent]

should answer the question

[tender elm]

Even Davis

[celest jacinth]

but idk but locis

[eager violet]

2/7 so far

wait

whered it go

oh i was scrolled up

[tender elm]

If u get WLed, u just opt in

Not harsh at all

Correct, no new documentation is needed

[forest sedge]

locis are for deferrals lol

[calm atlas]

when does ucsd come out

[tender elm]

This Friday I think

Nothing is confirmed tho so keep that in mind

[calm atlas]

yeah rip

colleges need to be more transparent ngl

[vestal plume]

why lol

[calm atlas]

cuz we at least need to know when they will release admissions

and not base it off of when they released it in the past

esp cuz they change it up alot

[grave lodge]

ikr

its a guessing game at this point

[zealous sinew]

UCSC coming tomorrow!

[calm atlas]

confirmed?

[grave lodge]

isnt sc 20th?

[tender elm]

by the 20th

keyword by

[grave lodge]

i mean they sent out whole time table

[round herald]

I thought its the 21st

[tender elm]

thats ucsb

[grave lodge]

with last names at what time

[tender elm]

ucsb is the 21st

[grave lodge]

oh

is sc 15 or 20??

[forest sedge]

obviously you have continued interest if you accept the waitlist offer. if you’re waitlisted you don’t have to prove more about why you deserve to be accepted. it literally just depends on how many people they accepted enroll. name me one school that calls a waitlist letter “loci”. but anyway davis doesn’t have one

[calm atlas]

UCLA UCI UCSD: 17th maybe, UCSB: 21st confirmed, Cal 30th confirmed

[calm atlas]

yeah that was sc on the 20th

[tender elm]

UCSC is by the 20th

[zealous sinew]

based off previous years

[grave lodge]

okk so prob 20

[calm atlas]

UCSB and cal confirmed through emails

[round herald]

Ahhh ty benz

[zealous sinew]

it says by 20. USC said by April 1st a week ago and now they confirmed for March 24, so they will likely release before the 20th

[calm atlas]

true true so yeah tomm is possible

they are going to release in 5 seconds

[tender elm]

ehhh

[limber magnet]

😱

[calm atlas]

countdown!

[gaunt void]

USC or ucsc

[calm atlas]

usc

[zealous sinew]

i used USC as an example

[calm atlas]

rejected 😦

[gaunt void]

They sent mail??

[limber magnet]

announced on insta

[zealous sinew]

on their official instagram

[gaunt void]

Oohk

[tender elm]

lmao EK

USC and UCSC

[limber magnet]

University of South Carolina 🤩

[eager violet]

i saw a reddit post about what date the ucs released last year + like a timeline analysis on the a2c reddit bu t i cant find it gain

[calm atlas]

yeah

fuck

Wrong shit

[eager violet]

For ucla and what not Friday

[calm atlas]

I wish Friday was tmrw bruh

[gaunt void]

Istg

[calm atlas]

I just wanna open them shits now 👹

[gaunt void]

I’ll have to wait 4 more days

Ughh

[sterile horizon]

La doesn’t drop Friday I’m going to die

The waiting shall be over

[gaunt void]

I’ll withdraw application if they don’t

[sterile horizon]

So that’s y I’m hoping it’s this Friday

Probably read through all the application by this point

[calm atlas]

no portal astrology 👹👹👹 grrr

[whole musk]

Power to return on Friday, perfectly in time for my decision

[soft beacon]

Confidence shattered after Davis waitlist 😀🔫

[calm atlas]

Davis waitlisted hella people dw

[whole musk]

UC decisions are really all over the place so dw

[kind kestrel]

i’m nervous af

[limber magnet]

ur power is out for days dang

[limber magnet]

fr not looking forward to rest of uc decisions lmao

[whole musk]

Want to get this over with

[kind kestrel]

wait so it’s confirmed this friday?

for sd, la, and irvine

[ancient raven]

No just speculation based off of historical decision dates

[gaunt void]

I think we take it as conformed

Confirmed

[ancient raven]

Yeah that’s how I’m taking it

[whole musk]

LA and Irvine imo are like confirmed

[ancient raven]

Do any of the remaining ucs send email updates before portal updates

[whole musk]

There’s enough evidence

[whole musk]

SD sends one asking you to check

So does Irvine

Not sure on LA

[calm atlas]

sd is more backed up than irvine rn

[ancient raven]

Like at the time they are released or like 2 hrs after

[calm atlas]

they posted something on their admissions instagram

irvine has been silent

[snow creek]

nah fr that’s what ppl sound like

[whole musk]

But unlike Davis they don’t sent your decision through email

[snow creek]

my uncles dogs cousins wife’s husband who is an AO

[whole musk]

Lmao

[ancient raven]

Is there like any like email astrology

[whole musk]

Wdym

[kind kestrel]

we waiting for this decision just to get slaped with a rejection letter

[ancient raven]

Like Davis had different subjects in their emails for admits/rejects

Idk if that made sense

[ancient raven]

Or from what I heard from pervious years when they announced portal updates

[snow creek]

does anyone know what the acceptance rate for davis bioeng even was?

[ancient raven]

But this year Idt they did that

[manic lance]

The stars have not aligned for you today.

Instead of doing portal astrology, why don't you astrologize your chances of going outside?

Used 24 times.

[snow creek]

💀

Damn

Who said smth about portal astrology

[ancient raven]

Man I was talking abt email subjects but said astrology on accident 😭

[tender elm]

u summoned the bot

[whole musk]

Wdym by email subjects

[ancient raven]

Like I think I heard it from Benz

Like how wl or rejects had different email subjects than admits

From previous years

Nvm LMAO

[whole musk]

Ah

Wait lemme check

[tender elm]

i would never say something like that

[ancient raven]

Idk it was from someone who got wl from Davis I think

[tender elm]

oh

that

thats not astrology

[ancient raven]

Yea I didn’t know how to say it

[tender elm]

thats just them emailing u the decision

[ancient raven]

Oh well

Is there any speculation on what time sd Irvine and la come out

Assuming it’s Friday

[gilded scroll]

Do we know what times

Oh nvm

[whole musk]

Apparently UCI split decisions based on times

Which is actually depressing

[vestal plume]

i fear

[calm atlas]

oh now i'm scared

when half the discord is saying they got in while the other half saying theres no update yet

[haughty kiln]

does anyone know how I can see what majors I put for each campus

I can't find it on my portal site

[calm atlas]

sign into uc app

it should show both main and alt majors

[haughty kiln]

Ohhhhh gotcha

I was trying to look on the campus portals lol some disappeared

[whole musk]

Did you guys apply to the same major for all UCs or diversify a bit

[eager violet]

philosophy for sd la ucb

chem for irvine biochem for ucd

[tender elm]

Inch resting

[eager violet]

i love philosophy very much

[tender elm]

Do u like logic

[grave lodge]

basically all same major (cog sci or neuro/psych if they didnt have it), except ucsd which was joint major cbn

[eager violet]

yes

[sacred osprey]

lol i applied bioengineering at all

im so screwed

except for ucsb actually i applied electrical eng

[calm atlas]
