I hope I didn’t fuck it up on my app then lol

[regal grove]

[calm atlas]

[regal grove]

i thought max is 4.33

[grave lodge]

i have no idea?

[regal grove]

for capped

[grave lodge]

it just is

[calm atlas]

probably grade inflation or smth

our admit rates last yr for la

keep in mind pretty much everyone shoots their shot at la at our school cuz its just a check

[grave lodge]

wtf are these stats?

[dusky pollen]

Ooh I want to find my school’s now

[limber magnet]

[calm atlas]

no those numbers are not possible

@grave lodge

idk why it shows that

[grave lodge]

idk?

[regal grove]

max is 4.33 right

[grave lodge]

it doesn't look possible but it just is?

[calm atlas]

unless you have like 8 semester classes

[regal grove]

for capped

[grave lodge]

it is the admissions by source school rit?

[calm atlas]

yeah

4.33

[regal grove]

then maybe its uncapped

if its uncapped

[calm atlas]

i don't think so

[grave lodge]

ifs it uncapped then im way over

its its capped im way under

[regal grove]

yea

[calm atlas]

my school def does not have a fucking 4.27 average uncapped ucla admit 💀

[grave lodge]

its this website rit

https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/about-us/information-center/admissions-source-school

[calm atlas]

yeah

[grave lodge]

?

[young onyx]

0 people have applied from my school to riverside since 1994

[calm atlas]

168 class size 😿

[grave lodge]

thats just what it shows for my school then

[calm atlas]

wait so are the gpas on the site weighted?

[grave lodge]

might be seeing my schools stats being mostly over 4.33

[calm atlas]

damn my school sucks more than I thought

💀 look at the jump from 2021 to 2022 (ucsd) 💀

what are uncapped and capped gpas????

[dusky pollen]

Under what tab are you guys finding this stuff?? I just keep seeing ethnicity?

[calm atlas]

idk

capped means you can only add 8 extra honors points, uncapped is unlimited

i gave up looking

[dusky pollen]

Think it’s like only a certain number of classes are actually weighted

[grave lodge]

fr gpa by hs

[dusky pollen]

Yeah what eversoda said

[young onyx]

same for me

[calm atlas]

ohhhhhh

[lethal quarry]

absolutely what u said. encouragement after someone is rejected is fine imo, but discouraging thinking abt decisions is too far

[worthy tangle]

is this a bad thing?

[grave lodge]

i thinks it upcapped bc my numbers r impossible with capped

[calm atlas]

56/74 is crazy

i mean tbf 121/257 is like 50% almost

[calm atlas]

wdym bad thing

aight i think its best if we stop looking at this

[regal grove]

a good thing

[young onyx]

youll find out once you get a decision

[calm atlas]

cuz all we are doing rn is comparing ourself to shitty numbers

which is js gonna stress ourselves out

over nothing

our life is all based on numbers

true

we are just a number

nothing more

putting that in perspective

ur right

time to look at the website more

[limber magnet]

💀

[calm atlas]

the duality of a2c

https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/about-us/information-center/admissions-source-school

heres the link

💀

[dusky pollen]

Wait I still can’t find the right tab lmao

[calm atlas]

average a2c epiphany

[grave lodge]

wait wtf ucsd for my school is literally impossible

its ucla/berk lvl

[dusky pollen]

How are you guys getting the numbers by uc to format so neatly?

[young onyx]

[young onyx]

[grave lodge]

lmaoo

[vestal plume]

i'm from the peninsula but not sv

[dusky pollen]

I have the data but it shows all the years from like 1998-2022

It doesn’t format as neatly as some of the screenshots I saw

Unless you guys just moved it to a spreadsheet later?

[calm atlas]

wait do you guys also use naviance?

or is it js me

[regal grove]

i mean it has an overall 90% acceptance rate

[grave lodge]

yes

[dusky pollen]

We don’t at my school

[grave lodge]

[dusky pollen]

I emailed him because he was my letter of rec

[calm atlas]

That's wild

[vestal plume]

ohh

[dusky pollen]

And he emailed me back like a minute ago

[calm atlas]

lmfaooo yeild rate for riverside is terrible for my school

they probably hate us now

[dusky pollen]

So many people get into riverside at my school that we just call it UC “my hs’s name”

[calm atlas]

onggg

people dont even bother applying

cuz they think its a waste

they have the "prestige" logic

that if

[dusky pollen]

We had someone from my school get rejected from Merced last year

[calm atlas]

other people from the school get into the college then the college sucks

[calm atlas]

that is next level impossible or they really were way too overqualified

[dusky pollen]

I checked the UC data

16 applied 15 got in

[calm atlas]

Why UCI so low

UCI bettah than UCSB

[dusky pollen]

UCSB by the aquarium though 😍

[pallid ermine]

UCSB is beautiful apaprently

is it not

[violet hemlock]

i have been summoned

[calm atlas]

the UCSB goblin has been summoned

UCSB or UCI

[violet hemlock]

sb ranked higher than uci on us news

[calm atlas]

yall sleeping on merced cmon

[dusky pollen]

if we all go to ucsb I’ll inadvertently dox myself just by being that one ucsb student at the aquarium every single day. that’s how you’ll know it’s me lol

[calm atlas]

Merced gon be t50 in 8 yrs

UCM >UCLA>=UCB>UCSD>UCSB>=UCI>UCD>UCSC>UCR

Ain't no one looks at usnews

[dusky pollen]

Yeah but I’m gonna need a job in 4

/j though you make a good point

[calm atlas]

usnews had washu as a t20

[calm atlas]

actually i do 🙋🏾‍♂️

[limber magnet]

I feel like most of a2c does 💀

[gaunt oasis]

(ucr simp here) ucr will get competitive within the next decade as well theyre climbing ranks and got new facilities n shit

[calm atlas]

and if we go off usnews it says UCSB is better than UCSD

Which is not true

[violet hemlock]

oop

[calm atlas]

grr UCI grrr

[dusky pollen]

anteater > gaucho though

[calm atlas]

on god

Compare the mascots

Which one winning

[rare carbon]

its cs better at uci tho

[calm atlas]

All the UCs

ong

Banana slug out first

All you gotta do is breathe on it

imma look at mascots when deciding colleges

who the hell wants to be an anteater

or a banana slug

[dusky pollen]

lowkey i really like the banana slug

it’s cute

but then again I’ve never seen a banana slug

[calm atlas]

facts my acceptance package has the banana slug crown

[violet hemlock]

our honorary mascot is a mapachee because no one likes gauchos

[dusky pollen]

I just imagine a banana with eyes

[calm atlas]

which mascot winning in hand to hand visceral combat

first image

disgusting

[dusky pollen]

awww

[calm atlas]

im not repping that

oml

[dusky pollen]

It really is a banana with eyes

[calm atlas]

bro what kinda bananas are you eating

[grave lodge]

ayyy i remmeber kissing a banana slig

bc science camp

[dusky pollen]

I feel like UCLA

[serene nymph]

i remember kids in my elementary school class did that during a field trip LOL

[grave lodge]

cute but slimy

[calm atlas]

yeah proba

Bruin vs bear?

[dusky pollen]

WAIT I FORGOT ABOUT BEARS LOL

[calm atlas]

idk

[dusky pollen]

okay bear > bruin

[calm atlas]

What's the diff

Between a bruin and a bear

[limber magnet]

real

[dusky pollen]

Dictionary says a bruin is a bear found in children’s fables

So I imagine like a really cuddly bear

Cuddly bear << bear in combat tbh

Wait ucsd is literally king triton

I feel like he beats a bear

[calm atlas]

cuddly one the out side but deep down it sticks to its primal instincts of ripping and tearing your face to shreds

Oh facts

Forgot about that

What is Davis mascot

Cow

[dusky pollen]

Formerly a mustang

[limber magnet]

i thought merced was the cow school

[dusky pollen]

Merced is the golden bobcat

[calm atlas]

golden bobcat

yeah

[dusky pollen]

His name is “boomer”

I kid you not he’s the Merced boomer

[calm atlas]

is that their attempt at being trendy or smth

[dusky pollen]

Let me read up on the uc Merced website lmao

It was named after a bobcat cub given anonymously to Merced’s zoo in 2005

But then in 2011 they also introduced a new bobcat named “Rufus” so there’s two bobcats

Also according to the director of admissions, they added the word ‘golden’ to bobcat to make it unique lmao

[calm atlas]

hmm

interesting

so two mascots?

or like two

representations

of one mascot

[dusky pollen]

So the golden bobcat is the mascot but they have two specific bobcats which represent the overall school mascot

There’s Boomer (2005) and Rufus (2011) and it looks like Rufus shows up more frequently now, or at least that’s what I’m getting from their page

Which makes sense because post-2011 you start getting a lot more boomer jokes lol

[dusky pollen]

Idk it’s confusing. I think it’s like the students are golden bobcats? But the mascot which goes to games and gets in photos and stuff are these specific two

It’s like Oski the bear for Cal

[sterile horizon]

When does sdsu come out

[calm atlas]

did it not come out already?

idk

my friends said it came out

some got in

some didnt

might be rolling then

[violet hemlock]

i got my sdsu acceptance before everything else so i think it's rolling dont take my word for it though

[calm atlas]

i got wl/rej from cal poly 💀 but its cal poly

[static citrus]

ikr

their decisions are probably randomized

[dusky pollen]

Certain programs are more selective though in comparison to the overall acceptance rate

[calm atlas]

they look at income too

[dusky pollen]

Yeah idk then but I know people in ib who got rejected from my school

Their overall stats weren’t awesome though so could be that

[sterile horizon]

Not my friend

[static citrus]

bruh ik rich ppl with 3.7 gpas getting in over me (max CSU gpa)

[calm atlas]

💀

[static citrus]

idk how they make decisions

[dusky pollen]

Wait the max is a 3.7??

[calm atlas]

maybe they applied to food science

or underwater basketry

[dusky pollen]

What do you do if you have a 4.0 unweighted then?? It just gets capped at 3.7?

[calm atlas]

nah the rich ppl had 3.7s

the max is higher

than 4

[dusky pollen]

Ohhhh lmao

My reading comprehension is not great

[static citrus]

max is 4.4 or smtg

[dusky pollen]

Rng 😍

[static citrus]

anyhow im happy someone else getting my spot

cuz i wasnt rly considering that school

[calm atlas]

idk. overqualified probably

[dusky pollen]

Do CSUs yield protect?

[rotund socket]

im praying that happened to me with ucsc

[calm atlas]

off the books everyone does

[static citrus]

idts

[rotund socket]

mfers with 4.0 weighted got in for same major

with less ecs

[static citrus]

ik someone who also had the max csu gpa and got in

[dusky pollen]

Oh interesting

[static citrus]

so its basically random

[rotund socket]

what is max csu gpa

[static citrus]

4.4

[rotund socket]

how do csus calculate gpa

[static citrus]

its a rly goofy system

[rotund socket]

wtf

[static citrus]

i dont even understand it

they max the number of honors

or aps

[rotund socket]

idk if they count freshman honors and ap

cuz leigh doesnt

[dusky pollen]

I think it’s to combat grade inflation

[rotund socket]

so my two B+s freshman year

mean my 9-12 gpa is a 4.3

which is what it says on csu portal

but my 10-12 is 4.48

so idk

[snow creek]

same

[dusky pollen]

They don’t count any of the honors at my school as weighted for UC’s either. Don’t know about CSUs but probably the same

[snow creek]

25%

[rotund socket]

bellarmine counted the honors freshman year

[eager violet]

at my school they counted precalc and chem as honors for uc

[rotund socket]

which is where i took them

but leigh didnt

[calm atlas]

damn

[rotund socket]

its wack

[static citrus]

aint that a high school

[rotund socket]

yeah

bellarmine counts their honors classes as weighted

[static citrus]

lol nicee

[rotund socket]

for hs gpa

but leigh didnt count it

[static citrus]

thats scuffed man

[rotund socket]

for the ovr gpa calculation

[snow creek]

out of like 200 only 50 💀

got acccepted to ucsd

[flat storm]

just got accepted to UCSC earlier today!

[eager violet]

congrats

[vestal plume]

idk if anyone checked the uc megathread on reddit but some intl kid said ucsd office confirmed decisions will begin rolling out this friday

i don't like the word rolling

[rotund socket]

Yee

[vestal plume]

[vestal plume]

alibi has a notes app where they update everyone's decisions

i remember asdfqwerty from cornelled

oh idk what that is

if they acc log decisions i should probably stop saying my decisions 💀

oh i see

[rotund socket]

I forgot to apply to uiuc

To be fair tho

[vestal plume]

[rotund socket]

I had a cap on how much I could spend on applications

I went 160 bucks over

Yeah

1m

1k*

[eager violet]

1m

[hardy edge]

1m

[eager violet]

1k

[dusky pollen]

Small loan of 1m

[calm atlas]

1k is like 12 colleges

which is p good

[rotund socket]

Yeah

[eager violet]

damn

[calm atlas]

[gilded scroll]

BELLARMINE

[rotund socket]

[rotund socket]

[sterile horizon]

[calm atlas]

whats bell

[young onyx]

im good with remembering things abt people

[regal grove]

omg i forgot about that

fire would def benefit from this school

[gilded scroll]

No

But I was thinking about it

Glad I did not

[lusty igloo]

Why is cse for uci 100% acceptance

[dusky pollen]

because 100% of the people who applied got in

I’m sorry, that was a dumb answer

[grizzled stirrup]

cheat code?

[lusty igloo]

Maybe cause no one wants it

[grizzled stirrup]

I want it 💀

[dusky pollen]

You’d think it’d be super popular though

I mean like cs and engineering are both huge

[grizzled stirrup]

It's my alternate major

[dusky pollen]

Tons of people apply for those

[dusky pollen]

100% admit rate 👀

[grizzled stirrup]

I hope so

Feels like a catch

[vivid shell]

are you sure thats for undergrads?

it could be for higher studies

[grizzled stirrup]

seeing numbers in other majors

I think it is undergrad

[regal torrent]

damn, as a ce major 20% isn't horrible

[lusty igloo]

No it says undergrad at the top

[vivid shell]

so i should've just applied cse 💀

[rotund socket]

im fucked guys

[regal grove]

The stars have not aligned for you today.

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

Used 26 times.

[eager violet]

mine is 12/09

i forgor what this was though

[rotund socket]

is it bad that i wrote a piq abt being biracial

[zealous sinew]

some ppl have march 16 as the date

[rotund socket]

and taking ap span to connect with my spanish heritage

[eager violet]

what

that is interesting

[calm atlas]

literally wrote about being gay for one of mine

davis supports #pride

[rotund socket]

davis hates hispanics

i got waitlisted

davis racist confirmed!!!!!

[eager violet]

how do they even read the piq's in time

[rotund socket]

omg 😱 😱 😱 😱 😱 😱

[eager violet]

thats like 400-500k+ essays per campus

[rotund socket]

u have to catch their attention

if it generic

they just skip it

[dusky pollen]

Tbh if you skim, you can read all of them in less than 5 mins

[rotund socket]

or so ive heard

[calm atlas]

i heard uc's are diff compared to privates in the sense that they like straight forward essays

My piqs were about:

• gardening
• unorthodox leadership in boy scouts
• problem solving skills I learned in basketball and how I connected it to academics
• kind of why UC? But talked about passion project

[eager violet]

thats what i was thinkking

[calm atlas]

which makes sense bc its only 350 words

bro don't post ur essay

[eager violet]

i knew they would probably skim since ucla probably gets like 600k

so i just wrote really straight forward ones

[calm atlas]

it's gonna get robbed

[dusky pollen]

Mine were about

• debate
• digital art
• ib
• ib 💀

[calm atlas]

💀

[whole musk]

where'd you get this

[calm atlas]

my gardening essay is so good I used it everywhere

[whole musk]

like your ib class or

[eager violet]

search up like uci acceptancce by major

they have a database

[rotund socket]

mines were space exploration, unorthodox leadership as a lead altar server, biracial one, skill at building campfires which i connected to talents of courange and perserverance

[eager violet]

itll probably be the first result

[calm atlas]

someone above this message sent a link i believe

[calm atlas]

W

[rotund socket]

i felt like my biracial one was good

but it rly only fit uc prompt

[dusky pollen]

like why I decided to do ib dp + what I got out of it by being able to pursue my own research papers via IAs and my EE

[rotund socket]

space exploration i reused

[whole musk]

ah icic

[calm atlas]

my piq's couldn't have been more lgbtq

[eager violet]

i wrote mine about
-interest in science/humanities > premed
-expereince with shadowing/interning for a colorectal surgeon
-tennis tutoring org i did over the summer

• i forgor 💀

[whole musk]

i wrote mine about
i don't fucking even remember

[calm atlas]

I forgor

[eager violet]

real

oh the last one i wrote about was keyboards

[whole musk]

tossed all my essays out and never looked back

[rotund socket]

i had originally written one abt keyboards

but i scrapped it

[dusky pollen]

Lowkey wrote two of mine a day before the deadline

[limber magnet]

fr

[eager violet]

my keyboard one was my least straight forward since i felt like all my other ones were like painfully so

[dusky pollen]

Better than all my other colleges though since I did their supps like 30 mins prior to the deadline

[rotund socket]

everyone at my school said the biracial one was nice af

but idk anymore

[limber magnet]

u showed ur essay to everyone at ur schol?

[rotund socket]

2 waitlists

[rotund socket]

other high stat kids cuz i had them peer review essays

well high stat friends

that i could trust

[gaunt oasis]

i got a high stat peer tutor to look over one of my piqs, bro was so helpful

[dusky pollen]

Do you have good ecs? maybe it’s not the piqs that are the problem, or maybe the decisions process really is just random and sometimes even the most qualified applicants get waitlisted

[rotund socket]

i made my stanford admit friend reread mine like 15 times

[calm atlas]

didn't get to have anyone review mine bc by the time i finished it was 1 day before the deadline and i wanted to be done

i left it to the universe

[whole musk]

i think i just had my counselor read over and help me with it

[gaunt oasis]

oh yeah and i got my counselor to look over one of my other piqs

[whole musk]

most of my piqs were pretty much all my essays for other schools but stretched, twisted, shortened and polished

[dusky pollen]

Other way around for me

[gaunt oasis]

dude has 5 older brothers and all of them went to berkeley and he probably is too 😭 it’s intimidating how on top of things he is

[eager violet]

wild

[limber magnet]

😳

[dusky pollen]

Dang that tuition cost though

Parents either super rich or super poor

[limber magnet]

bro being the youngest child out of 6 guys must be wack

[gaunt oasis]

not sure but ik he did smth in sedan over winter break so im guessing his parents have a lot of money? he also has a job to raise money for college tho so idk

tbh i am kinda curious to see all of yalls piqs
