[royal steppe]

O

[midnight quail]

Not regent, just got in early

[unkempt drift]

Which major tho

[honest vine]

holyy u def got yield protected

[royal steppe]

ngl i dont think anywhere yield protected me

[wheat field]

great day to be class of 2024

[thorny ermine]

So I still haven't decided between UCI and UCSD but i have the option to ask for a SIR deadline. I'm still waiting for Wl's at Cal and LA will the SIR extension deadlines lead to the waitlist decisions taking longer?

[wheat field]

thank god i wont be there to experience when acceptance rates are like sub 10 everywhere

[honest vine]

me too 😔

[royal steppe]

i think u should accept one now before the WL

[midnight quail]

Nah, once Feb 9 decsion drop for UC Berkeley early admits and I was one of them, I withdrew my applications for the frest

[unkempt drift]

Northeastern for me lmao

[royal steppe]

o my friend is going NEU

[honest vine]

u shud commit, waitlists will take forever and a day to come out, so dont bank on those

[thorny ermine]

yea ik but there is the option to extend the SIR deadline will this mean the wl' decisions will take longer?

[midnight quail]

For me, if I didn't got into berkeley, I would had gone to a oos school

[honest vine]

waitlists are so opaque that noone knows

[royal steppe]

only for UCSD right

[thorny ermine]

UCI too

[royal steppe]

o

[honest vine]

for me, im going to an oos unless i get berkeley

[thorny ermine]

which might mean other uc's might also have this option for extending deadlines is what im tryna say

[unkempt drift]

Awesome! Hope he has a great time. The waitlist hurt me so bad, low on confidence then

[thorny ermine]

my bad if im not wording it great

[royal steppe]

idk how the NEU waitlist is

but i would look at previous year numbers ig

[unkempt drift]

Nah I withdrew after I got into UCLA

[royal steppe]

where are u committing rn @unkempt drift

[unkempt drift]

Georgetown for Poli Sci and Econ

[royal steppe]

oooo

[thorny ermine]

am i throwing picking UCI for econ / business cuz its rated higher than UCSD

ive been thinking about it a lot just want some reasurrance lol

[gentle wyvern]

no this is valid

uci is better for business admin compared to ucsd

im pretty sure actually

wait

[royal steppe]

bro UCSD is def giving me business econ over data science if i get off the WL

[gentle wyvern]

for ucsd wat were u admitted for

[thorny ermine]

im currently undecided social sciences at both lol

[gentle wyvern]

wdym

[steel matrix]

sir is not extending

[royal steppe]

data sci my main major

[gentle wyvern]

uhhh then id choose the school that is easiest to switch

[royal steppe]

business econ is my alt

[steel matrix]

at least not at ucla

[thorny ermine]

should be easy for both

[thorny ermine]

yo wsg bro

[steel matrix]

Someone called ucla asking abt sir extension the person on the phone was like hell nah

[thorny ermine]

irvine and san diego i have the option to lol

[steel matrix]

what up g

oh fr

[thorny ermine]

thats good for me tho

[steel matrix]

good for us gang

[gentle wyvern]

ucsd is more known for being less lean with switching majors from my understanding

[thorny ermine]

very true

[steel matrix]

finally tmrw is the deadline

shit felt like it took forever

[thorny ermine]

yea im still not sure which to pick dude

been leaning irvine tho lol

[steel matrix]

Bro atp idk do u have any questions abt the area i can help that w uci

if u have questions abt things to do / see i can help w that

[limber cipher]

come to irvine🐜🧑‍🍳‼️‼️

[thorny ermine]

i mean my biggest concern is just internships and being able to get into IB or finance

[gentle wyvern]

go irvine

[steel matrix]

ucsd gotchu w internships def but i bet uci would be fine

[wheat field]

ucsd sucks when it comes to switching majors

[thorny ermine]

yeah idk

[gentle wyvern]

well internships and all these kinda stuff u need to get out of ur own way to get

[thorny ermine]

cuz UCI has their own business grad program which supports the undergrad but UCSD doesnt have that

[royal steppe]

if ur leaning one way go irvine

[wheat field]

ur best bet is to flip a coin with ucsd as heads and uci as tails

[gentle wyvern]

ya

[thorny ermine]

yea i appreciate that there are external factors as well lol like my school is practically a UCSD feeder so ik so many ppl going to UCSD

and also i got a work study at UCSD

[limber cipher]

you also get a discount at Disney if you go irvine so personally I think that should decide your 4 years fr

[gentle wyvern]

also keep in mind ur switching from one college to another

[thorny ermine]

but i lwky see myself being miserable there

[wheat field]

which college did u get into ucsd for

[royal steppe]

does this mean if im admitted as business econ (my alt major) im locked into that basically? like i cant go to data sci

[thorny ermine]

lol, are you going to irvine?

[limber cipher]

yeah

[thorny ermine]

OMG thats another thing LMAO i put revelle as my first choice

[wheat field]

data sci is gonna be a tough ass beast to switch into...

[thorny ermine]

rip :(

[royal steppe]

RIP

[thorny ermine]

what year?

[wheat field]

even the AO over there said its impossible

[limber cipher]

28

[wheat field]

when i was there for UC cosmos

[royal steppe]

Oh L me

giving up on the UCSD WL ig

cuz idk if i wanna major just pure business

[unkempt drift]

Tbf they were generous keeping it at 15th

[thorny ermine]

gotcha

[wheat field]

do not go...

bro

its only worth going there in terms of quality of life if u get into sixth or eighth (seventh if ur a foodie who likes sushi)

[thorny ermine]

I mean i can also test out of Chemistry, biology, and language reqs

but still leaves me with HUM physics and some other social science req i think

[thorny ermine]

how bad do u think it would be if im testing out of those 3?

[steel matrix]

bro deadass flipping a coin might be the move atp if ur so torn

[thorny ermine]

yea 😭

[unkempt drift]

Hey I did that

[gentle wyvern]

yes

pretty much

[royal steppe]

RIP ME

[unkempt drift]

Did not feel like I got a good answer

[wheat field]

that means u desire the other choice

ez

[gentle wyvern]

maybe switching into structural chemical or nano engineering is possible for ucsd

ucsd is moving those 3 engineering majors from capped to uncapped

[thorny ermine]

@steel matrix

whats ur major again?

[wheat field]

still pretty bad

revelle and erc are notorious

their GEs just suck ass overall

[thorny ermine]

yea i mean im a IBDP student so im used to academic rigor. how do u think it would match up?

or it moreso just doing classes that ur not interested in

[wheat field]

ehh im not too sure since every IBDP is taught differently per school

[thorny ermine]

congrats on berk btw

[wheat field]

thanks

[thorny ermine]

im at berkeley high lmao

so lmk if u have any questions about the are

area*

[wheat field]

i put my venmo for piq 1, cashapp for piq 2, zelle for piq 3, and paypal for piq 4

[thorny ermine]

what does that mean

[wheat field]

nvm dont worry about it

i will say that given ucsds demographics, its probably more rigorous than what ur being taught

for revelle

[thorny ermine]

gotcha

[wheat field]

since u have these 4.5+ gpa ppl complaining how revelle sucks

[thorny ermine]

yea i mean gpa doesnt mean much

i got a 4.5+

really depends on the school

[wheat field]

so ig relatively summed up it just sucks

did u get into revelle first choice/

?

[thorny ermine]

yup

[wheat field]

yeah theres a reason why u were able to get in there first choice if u think about it

[thorny ermine]

😭

[wheat field]

dw ucsd overall is still a good school

get that education

idk how revelle food is tho

[thorny ermine]

its ASS

atleast what ive tried

but u can go anywhere 🤷‍♂️

irvine food was suprisingly good

and all u can eat

[wheat field]

yeah its in a pretty fair location within campus

[thorny ermine]

me n atry

just gotta pray for UCLA lol

i dont even think i would go to cal if i got in

[wheat field]

i feel bad for the ppl who gotta dorm at thurgood marshall or warren college

and erc

[queen stirrup]

went up to an admissions officer and talked to her about it and shes like go to another school cuz you wont be able to switch to cs if you get off undeclared

[steel matrix]
