ive heard that switching between ee and ece is easy

is this true

[stable anchor]

how is the altgeld Dairy Queen?

[distant spindle]

According to naviance last year about 84% of the people at my school were denied

[quartz plover]

EE and CE you mean?

[wet plover]

mightve

[surreal kindle]

yeah

my bad

[distant spindle]

Idk if that means they were under qualified or if I'm screwed

[quartz plover]

Tastes like asbetsos

Waiting for the Reno to fix it

[stable anchor]

damn

[surreal kindle]

crazy math kid

[quartz plover]

It’s not hard to switch between EE/CE

But I heard rumors of it being harder to switch from EE to CE starting next year

[surreal kindle]

so like even tho i wanna do ce and robotics

[stable anchor]

yes
as of now, the switch is pretty easy
a lot of people do it

[wet plover]

yea ok ik of him

[surreal kindle]

if i get admitted second choice ee i should still take it

[misty pagoda]

hinsdale

[quartz plover]

Yeah

[surreal kindle]

him and his brother got into mit

[quartz plover]

EE is better for robotics

[surreal kindle]

i wanna do robotic software

[wet plover]

i assume NOT hshs then

hisndale = hchs for me alwasys

[misty pagoda]

nahhh

[quartz plover]

Oh never mind then

[surreal kindle]

like computer vision

[twin wedge]

horns down

[surreal kindle]

for robots

[quartz plover]

I’m probably switching to EE

[wet plover]

oh i get it because devils got horns that's cringe af

[misty pagoda]

anyone know how the bio department is

[twin wedge]

shh it's school spirit 😔

[stable anchor]

nice
barely anyone transfers to EE lmao

[surreal kindle]

y

[quartz plover]

I wanna do semiconductors or power

And I just did CE cause I thought that I would be working with silicon and I’m good with programming

But I honestly don’t need to do CE

[stable anchor]

nice

I'm prolly gonna do RF

If I can bully my parents into doing a PhD i may do photonics

[quartz plover]

Holy shit wait do you do RF research?

[stable anchor]

nope

some stuff happened freshmen and sophomore year and I'm a year behind unfortunately

[quartz plover]

I understand I had family stuff last sem so I bombed 210 lol

I’m trying to do research with photonics

[stable anchor]

nice

i need to start doing research next semester lol

[quartz plover]

What year are toy then technically

Or better when are you graduating

[stable anchor]

spring 26

[quartz plover]

Ah ok so we’re basically same year

[stable anchor]

yeah

I still consider myself a junior because I am in my 3rd year of college after all

[quartz plover]

That’s valid

I almost wish I could do 5 years

What classes are you currently taking

[stable anchor]

id rather not share lol
im pretty embarrassed by it

[red halo]

bro this is insane

[quartz plover]

Ah fair enough

[stable anchor]

it's alright since I'll be able to take all the classes I want anyway

[quartz plover]

Yeah that’s good then

Was more wondering if you’re in 330 lol

[stable anchor]

im not planning on taking 330

[quartz plover]

Alr never mind then

[pure kiln]

time to apply for a second major

[quartz plover]

No reason why you would need it for RF anyways

[stable anchor]

true
i would honestly take 330 if I had more space tbh

[quartz plover]

I have professor zhang and he’s really good

[stable anchor]

nice

[quartz plover]

If you’re good at 210 power and 210 in general you might like it if you have time

Not too hard, he told me himself you can get a B minimum just by grinding problems and no concepts

[stable anchor]

nice

[wise citrus]

UIUC EA Decision Date

UIUC EA decisions come out <t:1706306400:F> in your local time
1 day, 18 hours and 26 minutes until the decision date

ApplyingToCollege

[fathom raft]

yeah the number of students they accepted/deferred/rejected was released

[dark palm]

where can i find it

[fathom raft]

one of our counselors sent a doc w it

i'll paste it here

[dawn spear]

r u instate or oos

[fathom raft]

oos

Admitted Students:

Approximately 23,800 students will receive early action admission.

About 19,500 students will be admitted to their first-choice major, while 4,300 may be admitted to an alternate major if they selected a second-choice major when applying.

Students can find their next steps to enrollment in their admitted checklist in myIllini. Explore a static version of the checklist and our admitted FAQ for more details.

Deferred Students:

Around 3,800 applicants will be deferred to the regular decision release on March 1. These students received a comprehensive review in the initial round.

Historically, we have a 50% admission rate for deferred students.

Students are deferred so we can see how their strengths fit into this year's entire first-year applicant pool.

[spring berry]

50% deferred is super good

[fathom raft]

Denied Students:

Approximately 19,000 students will receive denial decisions.

Some qualified students with strong academics, well-crafted essays, and commendable activities faced denial due to space constraints in specific majors.

Due to the competitive pool, we considered students only for their chosen programs unless they showed openness to exploring other majors, with preference given to Illinois residents.
Appeals are discouraged unless there is new and compelling information, or the student is open to a less competitive program. The deadline to appeal is April 1, and we will begin reviewing appeals starting March 15.

[spring berry]

more admitted than denied

oh wait most aren’t impacted majors

cs 2% 💀

[surreal kindle]

hi

[fathom raft]

yup

[dark palm]

damn thats a lot

[wet plover]

50% acceptance

[surreal kindle]

average cs +physics applicant

[fathom raft]

yeah LOL

[dawn spear]

where'd u get that information?

[wet plover]

Yea that’s just complete bullshit

[fathom raft]

i think someone posted a spreadsheet once

and it showed the oos cs acceptance rate to be rlly low

[last cloud]

5%*

[fathom raft]

i think it says 7.5% admit rate for cs on the uiuc site

but thats combining in-state and oos

[gusty pulsar]

it was 2.5% oos male

[wet plover]

That’s INSANE no chance

[dawn spear]

sheeshhhhh

[wet plover]

It could be real

But like damn

[dawn spear]

university of washington cs oos is 1%

[wet plover]

Tf

[gusty pulsar]

ok good news its 2.8

[last cloud]

9% for in-state is crazy

[gusty pulsar]

getting ready for that 1% this year cuz every school getting record apps

😭

[wet plover]

29 is batshit

[late oxide]

where do u see this

[late oxide]

how many total did ea?

[wet plover]

Where did you find this

[late oxide]

damn did anyone actually not put a second choice major?

i guess some people just only wanted to do cs probably right

[toxic maple]

it was an extra essay right

[late oxide]

oh true

yes it was

so i can see more people not doing it then

[toxic maple]

idk bro i saw that extra essay and couldn't be asked to make up some random interest

[late oxide]

i mean

[toxic maple]

bc my entire resume is abt one major

[late oxide]

i was doing cs + bioeng

so the first essays were focused on combo of that

so my second choice is just bioeng

[toxic maple]

oo ok

that's fire

[late oxide]

so i just emphasized that interest int aht one

um

not really bc

none of my ecs are stem related

💀

i didnt realize i liked engineering till last year

[toxic maple]

nah that's well rounded though

[late oxide]

too well rounded

i am a marble

and

my gpa sucks

but id really like to get in

my momw ent here

[toxic maple]

the kid from my school who got into cmu cs last year had his only cs experience as a fun website he made for the class list at our school

[late oxide]

actually sucks not a2c sucks

[jolly fog]

incoming 3.67 or sm

either way its okay

i believe regardless

[late oxide]

3.38 ⭐

[jolly fog]

ohh wait i tjhink i remember you

[late oxide]

yes

[jolly fog]

i still dont think its bad frmo the circumstances u said

[late oxide]

i knew it would clikc when u saw the number

yeah but like

it was just adhd and me not knowing

what if theyhre like

[toxic maple]

bro that's not bad

[late oxide]

"damn u shoulda just focused"

[toxic maple]

and you have an actual reason for the gpa

it's not like you just gave up on school

like you have a medical reason

[late oxide]

yeah

i guess

ive only gotten deferred so far tbh

from scu and cwru

and usc 💀 but that doesnt count

[toxic maple]

tbf deffered is better than rejected

[late oxide]

im assuming they wanna see my first sem grades

[toxic maple]

that means there's still a shot

[quartz plover]

This basketball game is so close

[late oxide]

to see if im still improvig

[quartz plover]

Also OOS Cs is 2%

[late oxide]

i got a 3.71 i think unweighted 4.0 weighted?

this sem

which is

obv better than my overall

[fathom raft]

based on the numbers provided, 46.6K

[dark palm]

why uiuc cs hella comp

[late oxide]

ok so abt half

basically

[late oxide]

idk its good

[fathom raft]

yeah i think some dont put a second choice

[quartz plover]

It’s a top 5 program that’s why

[toxic maple]

it's like t5 in the country dawg

[late oxide]

why did i do cs +bioe knwing i dont really like cs? we'll never know

[quartz plover]

Bruh

[late oxide]

i was gonna double major or minor in it at some point

[lilac jackal]

IM GETTING IN UIUC

[late oxide]

im joking

[quartz plover]

Why subject yourself to that

[lilac jackal]

I CLAIM

[toxic maple]

easier to transfer out of cs than into

so worst case you can just switch into smth you like more

[dawn spear]

🤑

[late oxide]

yeah and plain bioeng is my second choice anyway

and afaik they do actually consider ur second choice?

[dark palm]

isnt uiuc accounting like top 3 as well

[fathom raft]

yup just a bit over 51% admit rate

[quartz plover]

Yeah it’s high

[lilac jackal]

my decisions schedule is UMich, UIUC, GaTech, (Wisco???)

[gusty pulsar]

[gusty pulsar]

my first semester brought my gpa up 0.01

or like 0.006

[toxic maple]

ib spanish boutta send my gpa down to the dumps

[late oxide]

me when i have a 89.8 in my ap class and they don't round 🎀

[gusty pulsar]

this is where the begging starts

[late oxide]

apparently my school gives valedictorian to just anyone w a 4.0

i go to a

very infamous bay area school

[gusty pulsar]

is it the one

with the interesting transcript

[late oxide]

there are two you could possibly be talking about

theres two infamous schools in the bay area

[late oxide]

wdym

[gusty pulsar]

one sec

[toxic maple]

mine does the same thing

and it's lowk why nobody goes for valedictorian anymore

[gusty pulsar]

then wouldnt the school have like 20 valedictorians

[late oxide]

i know someone that's into brown last year recruited for softball

[toxic maple]

yup

[late oxide]

yes

[toxic maple]

graduation is kinda goofy

[late oxide]

30 last year i think

[jolly fog]

bro wants to stay in school

[toxic maple]

no like

[gusty pulsar]

cant find it

[toxic maple]

w/ our valedicotiran system

it's so weird having them name

like 25 valeidctooirna

[gusty pulsar]

interesting

[late oxide]

thats some incredible spelling

so yeah i feel

worse than usual about my gpa

for obvious reasons

[gusty pulsar]

3.4 on niche

😭

[late oxide]

yeah

no the school itself is shit

but there's 95% asian population

[late oxide]

we cant even afford naviance

[gusty pulsar]

thought the school would be in oakland or sum

[late oxide]

i know one white person in my grade

[toxic maple]

naviance lowk kills ur mental though

[pearl lantern]

oh my god 10% for me

[gusty pulsar]

dont trust, cuz statistics always lie

[pearl lantern]

why does that feel sm better than like 4%

bruh

[distant spindle]

These are some p good numbers

its like the gunn of socal but people dont kill themselves on the traintracks

[pearl lantern]

[stray vine]

this might be a dumb question but how hard is it to get into the ischool compared to engineering

[gusty pulsar]

u havent seen my school for rice

[pearl lantern]

7 applicants i only know two that applied ???

[late oxide]

bioengingeering not being on here

💀

[pearl lantern]

OMG

[late oxide]

[late oxide]

but im gonna need them to come in clutch for me

[gusty pulsar]

socal btw

[raven wave]

bro guys dont discuss your schools in a public server btw -- especially the name!

[pearl lantern]

collegevine told me i had a 20% chance of columbia ED

[gusty pulsar]

yeah screw collegevine fake statistics

[late oxide]

esp when they dont

[gusty pulsar]

really said safety

[late oxide]

ask you ur major

niche is better

[toxic maple]

jesus 238???

[late oxide]

bc you can sort by uhh

major

[willow lichen]

aint no way

[pearl lantern]

238 is crazy

[summer cobalt]

probably an illinois resident

[willow lichen]

why is collegevine fucking w me

[distant spindle]

My current class has 516 people in it so it's probably gonna be even higher

[distant spindle]

Ye

[late oxide]

so we just need to

[gusty pulsar]

we def getting in together

🙏

[late oxide]

avoid this one red dot right next to me

[toxic maple]

that's still crazy though

[willow lichen]

uiuc safety😍

[toxic maple]

[summer cobalt]

cs

[gusty pulsar]

u gotta type urself

[distant spindle]

I expect about 300 or so this year

[willow lichen]

collegevine scammed bc they said i would get 26% cmu and they deferred me

[distant spindle]

This is how the gpas are looking here

[gusty pulsar]

5.25 is crazy

[late oxide]

One sec

[late oxide]

[distant spindle]

Gotcha

[distant spindle]

Yeah definitely take that into account

[late oxide]

oh thats true

[summer cobalt]

[spring berry]

oh

i think my school took that down lol

[distant spindle]

Yeah a lot of schools stopped using it

[toxic maple]

why?

[distant spindle]

Does your school use schoolinks?

[distant spindle]

I can't say for others but mine did because we use a different system now

[toxic maple]

oo ok

[distant spindle]

It also has an admissions tracker but it doesn't seem as accurate

It claims uiuc is basically a safety for me

Which like

It really isn't 😭

[toxic maple]

tbf it isn't a safety for anyone in this world

unless ur literally nobel prize winning or smth

[pure kiln]

you eye you see

[leaden meadow]

Can you see naviance of a school you don't go to

[leaden meadow]

It might be for me

I applied to a very non competitive major

[distant spindle]

🫵🏿👁️🫵🏿🌊

[leaden meadow]

And i am a very competitive applicant

[distant spindle]

I don't believe so

[pure kiln]

FACTS bro

[leaden meadow]

😔

[willow lichen]

uh how accurate is niche

💀

[leaden meadow]

very not

[willow lichen]

niche and collgevine then seems to be the same level of scam got it

[wise citrus]

Imagine not getting into you

Uiuc

[willow lichen]

oh ur here too

[distant spindle]

My class rank has been fluctuating a lot and it's not the same as it was when I applied I'm worried about that 😭

[grizzled crater]

if your rank changes a bit after applications it wont matter

if theres a huge drop in grades then it does matter

maybe a 0.2 gpa here and there is aight 💀

[distant spindle]

Also 10 people transferred out (or dropped out but idk) so my class size is different

[distant spindle]

Alright that's good to know, my gpa has gone up but my rank went down 1

[grizzled crater]

ah, doesnt matter

they dont care unless theres a huge difference

i only took ap bio and thats it bc i didnt realize i wanted to do this until recently

[willow lichen]

i mean if u were able to articulate well enough why u like bioE in ur essays u should be fine

even if its a recent interest

[late oxide]

i didnt decide till last year

[late oxide]

yeah i went into detail

[pearl lantern]

I just found out Uiuc does proficiency and placement tests now I don’t wanna go anymore

I’m not testing as soon as I enroll like tf

[ashen schooner]

placement test what

[willow lichen]

what

[ashen schooner]

to be fair I plan on expanding my knowledge to multivariate & linear & solving physics questions with them

hopefully I will NOT fear whatever the hell that will be

[ashen schooner]

but please don't be an english proficiency test

that shit s wach

[willow lichen]

u dont need to take english if u submit sat/act

thats what the website says

[ashen schooner]

do I have to officially send the scores to them

oh my god

I didn't send scores to them and I am an EA applicant

[willow lichen]

i think only if u enroll

[ashen schooner]

that's better

to be fair my mom is cool with me using her credit card to send my scores as many times as I want

[willow lichen]

bruh idk theyre saying only math but then if i go to coe theyre saying u need to take physics and chem too tf

im so confused

[keen ether]

It's super super easy

At least the math one is super easy

[keen ether]

It's like in June you'll be fine

[keen ether]

No

[keen ether]

Yes

Math is required for everyone

ALEKS

It's super simple

[ashen schooner]

oh okay

[keen ether]

Alg 2 and pre calc stuff

[ashen schooner]

sure

[keen ether]

You just need an 80% to be able to enroll in calculus

And you get 3 tries open book

There is also language proficiency if you plan to study a foreign language here

[ashen schooner]

what if I already have a 5 in calcbc do I exempt from taking the math placement test or what

[keen ether]

No

You still need to take it

[ashen schooner]

and then I can just transfer my credits and move on or can I not transfer calc credits

[keen ether]

Transfer credits

If you can get a 5 in bc this should be super easy

It's like sat math

It just determines if you are calculus ready

[keen ether]

Should be ok they just don't consider SAT if you don't submit

[keen ether]

Yea uiuc has schools they are good with

cough imsa cough

[distant spindle]

Naviance should have a way to see who applies by major

[spring berry]

so, i was just checking my srar and I made a mistake. as i am doing the full ib diploma we have 6 subjects + tok. In my srar I reported my grade 11 tok class (pass/fail), however forgot to do the same for my senior year.

how fucked am i?

[neat galleon]

Not an IB student so cant comment on severity but contact the admissions office ASAP if you haven’t already

[neat galleon]

EA or RD?

[spring berry]

ea 😭

[neat galleon]

damn

😭

Contact AO and pray

[spring berry]

tok is like a filler class, an annoying requirement a student needs to complete (its only a pass or a fail). would you say its bad that I didn't report a class, although we only had tok for 1 semester of senior year

[willow lichen]

nah what tok is pass/fail

u get graded on it

its part of the 3 points

[spring berry]

yeah but in my transcript it is listen down as "pass/fail"

[willow lichen]

but ur good i remember uiuc had a sample IB srar and it didn't even report tok/ee so its fine

[spring berry]

yeah just checked that, thank god

can i transfer from ee to cs?

[wary beacon]

i really dont wanna check results at 3:30 a.m.(local time) but im not sure either if ill be able to sleep soo

idk should i pull an all nighter for uiuc at 3:30 and gatech at 5:30 or check them both together in the morning?

[distant spindle]

You can transfer into engineering undeclared after your first semester I've just heard it's really difficult

[dawn spear]

no

u can ee to ce tho

[stable anchor]

transferring grainger cs is blocked

By the way, I don't recommend doing ECE if you aren't interested in it.

[surreal kindle]

Is ece good if your torn between like software and data and stuff but also like physics and electricity

[stable anchor]

CompE is in between EE (hardware) and CS (software)

so the answer is yes

[surreal kindle]

Like career wise I wanna do software and I’m passionate abt it

But like interest wise

Electricity is cool

Who doing stat/math?

[stable anchor]

incorrect

[fathom raft]

i applied stats as 2nd choice major

[arctic mortar]

Whats your first choice?

[untold dragon]

guys what are the chances for brain and cognitive science?

[arctic mortar]

Is that LAS?

[untold dragon]

yes

[arctic mortar]

According to last years data, 21 people majored in it so you probably have good chances

Doesnt seem like a popular/competitive major

[untold dragon]

thats my second-choice

so fingers crossed for that

[arctic mortar]

Youll be good for that then

[untold dragon]

bet

[arctic mortar]

If youre in the gpa sat range too youre chilling

[untold dragon]

sat yea

gpa nah

[arctic mortar]

Assuming decent essays as well

Yeah my gpa kinda bad

[untold dragon]

essay decent

[arctic mortar]

I also doing LAS

[untold dragon]

mines 3.46 with 1370 sat

ecs good aswell

[arctic mortar]

Honestly anything above a 3.4 is pretty good for LAS

[untold dragon]

word

[arctic mortar]

I have a 3.65 1420 sat

So not a lot better

Are you out of state?
