For me it was a science olympiad invitational

#

I couldnt medal in a single event meltingsob

#

Meanwhile my schools a team got first by an insanely high margin

#

Bullshit 1-2 places off from a medal for two events

#

Nah they only sent their like fourth team or some shit

#

Im not on the a team youll never find me

#

Dont do that salute

#

On god

#

Fuck chem lab

#

Too much bs

#

I couldve had two medals with like two more questions right

#

I got a singular medal from regionals

#

Whitney hs had us pressed holy shit

#

This year

#

Ye

#

Im done

#

Team b dont get to go to states

#

Though if we were a separate school we wouldve qualified lmfao

#

Then either walnut or diamond bar couldnt go

#

But then you cant swap around members

#

For team a and b

#

The mandatory studying tanked my grades

#

I didnt try hard so i wouldnt get moved up to team a

#

Light work

#

Now i can study for my failing classes

#

They have us physically in a room studying on computers for 9 hours a week

#

Ts pmo

#

Team a gets like top 5 in state so it works

#

Less resources in kansas

#

I think my school used to have to compete against arcadia and troy

#

So we didnt do all that well until 5 years ago

#

Troy and monte vista the biggest opps

#

I have no idea

#

Theyre like no 1 tho

#

Theyre too sigma

#

I need to steal their brains or some shit

#

Thank god they only send their team b-d to invitationals

#

With my school in them

#

Otherwise we couldnt have clutched a place in any of em

If they roll out some after April 15

tranquil jay

probably second trimester grades?

#

if they extend out into the summer third trimester grades maybe

dawn remnant
#

oh

#

I’ve heard chances of

#

Getting of waitlist is high tho?

tranquil jay
#

idk abt uc specifically but most schools when u get waitlisted its highly recommended to send second tri seinor grades

tranquil jay
#

It was 41% admit rate in 2023 and in 2022 it was 19% and 2021 was 0%

dawn remnant
#

My school only works semester worse

#

Wise

tranquil jay
#

oh ok u prob dont have to send anything else then since they dont accept LOCI's

tulip relic
tranquil jay
#

i will personally go to the admission office and threaten them

tulip relic
#

LMAO

#

then again i’ve never seen my mom so happy

#

like she was expecting me to be rejected bc of my gpa

#

😭

#

the davis average is like 4

tranquil jay
#

yes!! waitlists are a W bcuz it means you are qualified

tulip relic
#

or some prestigious research program

yes ik bc ucla/ucsd are dropping soon and they have the most applicants

tranquil jay
#

(i apologize if this sounds braggy) but u still have hope! like i dont have a 4.0 and had a good amount of B's in hs and i got accepted

#

bro irvine needs to come out

tulip relic
#

DAMN

#

at my school only 3 people applied to the ucs

#

ik a girl who applied to berkeley, san diego, irvine and riverside

#

at my school

#

yes though i plan to relocate to cali this summer

#

if i’m accepted

#

then again my dad is already in cali

#

i get to see my dad and cousins

#

if i do end up at davis it means i go out every weekend with my dad to eat out

#

it is

#

i’m still not over the fact i cannot go to my brother’s berkeley graduation bc i have finals, my 18th birthday and high school graduation 😭

NOT CHANCE ME

#

😭

#

chance me is such a sad place

#

like do what you want to do don’t listen to others if you don’t like it

#

which is what i learned when i was filling out the activities section of my uc app

#

and part of why i only have 5 of the 20 given slots filled 🤷

tranquil jay
#

thats not a bad thing at all

#

bcuz quality matters more than quantity

tulip relic
#

yes

tranquil jay
#

and also theyll prob go ballistic reading 100k apps with 20 slots over and over

#

are you in state

tulip relic
#

no lol

#

but i somehow got 3 acceptances and waitlisted at davis 😭

#

then again the activities i listed i’ve been doing since at least my freshman year of high school and i do them just about every day

#

also i grinded my ass off for my essays

#

i like to think my essays saved me

#

also don’t listen to admissions influencers

all they do is spew out ways of making your application sound more generic

#

also they promote paranoia and false info

tranquil jay
#

congrats!!!

#

yea they can tell which activities mean a lot to u and which ones ur just putting down for college

tranquil jay
#

like elise pham massive respect for her but shes kind of shady with her business and advcie ngl

tulip relic
#

also limmy and harvardhoney

#

limmy is the definition of a fearmongerer

tranquil jay

why are intl students applying to uc's and asking for finaid 💀

tropic minnow
#

Well some UCs offer aid and free money is money

#

Some are intls don’t realize the UCs give very little aid for intls overall so they just ask thinking they’ll get some

#

And some are desperate to leave their country so they try to get as much money

oak bough
#

is it worth applying to scholarships as an international

tropic minnow
#

I mean you can try, you might get some money

worthy axle
#

is ucsb actually a good uc though

#

compared to ucsd, uci

jaunty void
worthy axle
#

is it ucsd > ucsb > uci?

#

i heard uci's engineering is mid

jaunty void
#

i got no clue about engineering tbh 😭

#

i think UCSD is the best for engineering

worthy axle
#

yeah for sure

jaunty void
#

UCI isn't as well regarded as UCSB imo

tropic minnow
jaunty void
#

i'd be weary about UCSB since they're well known for being a party school

worthy axle
#

i got regents there though but ^ im worried about that too lol

tropic minnow
#

Like always, research the individual UCs and their programs, but simply going to a UC will give you a good education and set you up for a success no matter which one

jaunty void

# tropic minnow In general or UCSB?

just in general, my friend at ucsd is saying that, most of his basic reqs all have sophomores in them since he couldnt get the classes he want

I think it might also depend on the major

#

And the school

yea all my pre-med friends are shafted trying to get pre-req courses

like bio and chem

I think in the long run it breaks t30

Because it has the land

People don’t want merced cuz 1. shit location (ok valid) 2. 90+ acceptance rate screams shit school to them when merced cs is pretty damn good i heard

Which is something other UCs are gonna run out of

wet carbon

yea location is 😬

runic grail

they see riverside merced as high ar = shit school which is not the case at all

tropic minnow

I will say though as a humanities/social science guy it's not impressive imo

Riverside is an incredibly solid premed option

But give it a decade and it might be better

if you get admitted to a school bc you applied to a major you thought you had a better chance in would it really be worth it or would you just wonder if you would still get in if you applied to the program you wanted in the first place

@dry pollen I was surprised because I hear things about LA

I don't think any are worth oos, but if you do want to do oos UC, then what matters isn't the UC itself its the program

If you can pay that much just go to a private school

especially when you consider that ca residents get two free years of community college

but like. $4k tuition/quarter is very low

What state school?

Not me just a bunch of people who don't know the difference between the two Ofc

they’re all R1 universities

#

and rankings aren’t everything but ucsb is like T15 for public schools

tawdry swift
#

and most provide similar level of education

so honestly only difference is networking and location

The UCs are some of the best universities in the world. You’re splitting hairs. In 20 years, it won’t make a huge difference.

And combined with other stuff UCSC gave me

I'm saving a lot

shy kiln
tawdry swift
tropic minnow
#

Yeah

#

Plus I want to do law school or grad school so ever dollar saved is great

tawdry swift
#

like so many privateu universities be charging like 60-70k off tuition alone.

tropic minnow
#

True

#

The thing about high tuition is that schools give a lot of aid, so really only a small cohort is paying full price, helping to subsidize everyone else.

The thing is, even after financial aid, privates are generally most expensive than publics, so even with financial aid, sometimes a full pay public makes more sense than a private that gives some aid.

But like everything, it depends on a case by case basis

tawdry swift
tropic minnow
#

Are they private?

#

Either way unfortunate

tawdry swift
#

He got into santa clara but they be charging him like full price. which is kinda crazy cause its like all of his family's income

tropic minnow
#

Oh yeah Santa Clara is expensive

tacit merlin
#

any ucsc second wave admits get their financial aid stuff yet?

#

cant figure out if i got none or that they havent released yet

tawdry swift
#

Honestly man I'm just praying my UC decisions end up well cause I've been hella anxious waiting.

#

Everyone else be getting their decisions early too

desert escarp
tacit merlin
#

ah okay

#

hopefully they will not be giving me 0

tropic minnow
#

Yeah I'd be patient for UC aid

tawdry swift
tropic minnow
#

You probably want to do that

#

That's how schools give aid

#

Otherwise they might not give any

tawdry swift
#

I'm trying to get it done but I just hope my parents actually remember to make one. Cause I can't get nothing without their info.

hey so i got waitlisted from uc davis, even though i felt pretty confident that i would get in. i'm in state, 4.3 gpa, and have a good amount of extracurriculars. since davis has one of the higher acceptance ratings, are my chances for the other schools (ucberkeley, ucsd, uci, ucla) really low?

sweet citrus

#

but like in general if i cant get into davis it would be harder for the others right?

No theyre not related

then you dont have any right (nor qualifications) to judge....

also for those who got WL have hope bcuz Davis has a 40% waitlist acceptance rate historically

tulip relic

and the inevitable fact that some of davis folks are probably to choose berkeley/sd/la instead or even the ivies lmao

should i get a ucsd pfp
