yeah u got this
I bet half of the people who go to ucsd didn't even wanna go there in the beginning
i truly love all of u OOS folks but leave some crumbs for me so i can afford in state tuition 
abgs are a legitimate consideration in my decision between irvine and ucsd
Cuz they got rejected from ucla or sum
lol some people in my school got in for ucsd cs and they have u mich accepted alr
but like im not cs
so idrc
Bro
ucsd
i'm sure you'll get off the WL :)
Irv
yeah thats pretty common
ucsd has good abgs too
bet
toronto is alright i dont wanna downgrade π
Every day i manifest
Pls someone get it
i don't rlly want to go to UCSC since they don't have civil/environmental engineering so UCI waitlist is my best hope π
u got this
prayin for u
Did u get cal poly
Almost certainly no bc i still have "awaiting decision" π
Oh rip
Cal pply is weird
I got in but my friends with better stats haven't gotten anything
Real
i got into UW for engineering but i can't pay oos tuition π
Dude
I would commit yo uw in a heartbeat
well abgs also include ibgs
If it wasn't so expensive
Ok fair
But indian bb or bgs are weird (source: I am indian)
well
i got mogged by an ibg at my summer camp and im never recovering
im indian too
π
committing rn
if my username didnt give it away yet
it's such a pretty campus, and i know a lot of people who go, but unfortunately it would put me in like. $300k of debt π
LMAO WHAT
more defined cheekbones better jawline hunter eyes n shit bro
it was over
i was on tiktok and i saw this 6'3 brown girl...
like how bro
whered u get those genes from π
Do we know when ucla and UC Berkeley coming out. Im defo rejected but still
berk 27th
UCLA this friday
ucla likely 21st
Thanks
I'm notttt getting into samueli at ucla but i have a smidge of hope for CED at berkeley
ced?
college of environmental design
ohh
hey at least its not engineering! π
If ucla doesn't clutch up I'm stuck with uw, scu, or ucd
thats my second choice!
and technically my first!
oh
oh wait ur right lmao
Yo I'll take uw off ur hands
i thought coc was more selective
as of right now i think my best bet is UCD or UCI waitlist π«
LOL thank you π«‘
Yeah too expensive for me anyways
i'll trade you UW lmao
oos?
ucs r so money hungry
its not even funny
π
Tf u got wl ucd uci and got into uw
like cali has the most taxes too and yet ucs
Crazy work
i think UC engineering is more competitive than UW engineering tbh
take more oos
nah
idt
ucsc engineering vs uw engineering
Uw > ucd at least right
yeah
And uci?
Damn so ucs are just a toss up
yeah
If I was in state cali I'd go to uci/ucd in a heartbeat
I didn't even apply engineering to UCSC bc they don't have civil/enviro π i got in for enviro science
nAH THATS SO REAL BRO
WHY DOES UCSC not have any eng majors
its so limited
like even merced has a lot of eng majors
ucsd pls uncap bio π
W
u got wl?
UCI would be nice if i got off the wl but i live in OC so the campus isn't very exciting. But i know a lot of engineering profs there and the programs r great
i got rej
yeah aero is so good
they have some program w nasa
no but they put me on as undeclared
Cali campuses mog any other school tbh
yeah gonna have to do biochem
ucsd campus
same LOL
ucsd campus vs uci abgs
Looking forward to cali for grad school perhaps
yeah but uci actually gave me the program i wanted
ucsd campus π₯
im tryna go gtech for grad
gtech ut or ucsd for aero grad
i kinda wait davis or berk so i can experience some semblance of seasons
dw lol I got ucsb regents and got wl at ucsd and uci too πππ
π
ucs are so random
thats insane
yeah cuz of grade deflation
ill genuinely start an of if ucla takes me
yield protection maybe?
nah uc decisions are just random asf
naw i like ucsd campus a lot
Also Iβd say if youβre premed ucla, ucsd, ucd, and UCI are all fantastic choices
gtech is very good for aero
Alright kokoro.nashi, I'll remind you in 6 days about:
mav of
maybe but i feel like irvine is competitive enough to not yield protect
BRO PUT UW AS TARGET
It is for me
i feel like ucsd wouldnt be socially dead if half of the students werent bitter ucla rejects
what major?
I'm not cs
Is that not normal
Stats
nuh uh
Cope
idek what school that is
Uh huh
OHHH
not if your doing cs or engineering π
Bro hasnβt texted back on our gc
Yeah I feel like most people who have it as a target arenβt those majors
yeah or those people are just ivy league material type shit
lOL
Lowkey regret going stem
check insta bae
I coulda done smth easier
I got in for ee and it was a target so idk
Never too late to change
Ok
Same π
You can switch your major in college
god damn
you said ok but r texting on discord
u cracked
this is truly rock bottom for you
Are you and ruby face to face rn π
Not really I have a 4.0 uw but I have shit ecs, but Iβm fgli though
weβre sitting at a candlelit dinner rn
Wowee
she just ordered so much
Enjoy the dinner and hop off discord
My card abt to take a hit
Ggs
Insta was downloading chill
I like life without it
No itβs bad for you
Do you want to talk in person or should we continue to talk on discord
Stop being a screenager
Weβre literally on a dinner date rn
Iβm just shy i feel most comfortable on discord
Iβm stepping out of my comfort zone
and talking to her
Ruby mute him
jw what are my chances to get off waitlist for uci cs
Picking engineering was the worst mistake ive probably ever made lol
π
lmao
can a mod pin this
what school is that
ucla
where did yyou get that?
thanks
@sweet citrus
can u pin
if possible
last year
hopefully gon up this year
ty uc moo student
yea
Appeal rate is brutal
is this overall gpa or uc gpa
normal uw probably
i got waitlisted for both too dw
Is this last year
yo same
Lmao i may be cooked i have like a 3.79 UW bc i was in the hospital for part of freshman year π hopefully they pity my additional info section
woah
I thought ucs only count sophomore and junior year
Ucs only count sophomore and junior!
Yeah that's why i asked if it was uc gpa or total gpa on the slideshow bc idk
But it doesn't rlly matter lol my sophomore and junior grades r good π
what is the estimated admit rate this yr for UC davis
mf behavior bro. im going to touch them so badly
holy shit is that last cycle
like 30?
slr slr
yo?
Just realized I reported a 3 in ap bio to the ucs (as a heavy humanities major) am I cooked for berk, la and sb?
sb didnt come out yet?
God thatβs a relief I hope ur right π
Nah they come out on the 18
26 people πππ??
They 100% do
The admissions officer that came to my school said sending a 3 looks better than leaving it off
Having a passing score is all that matters p sure
yeah mine said the same
Theyβve placed far more emphasis on it recently. Without the SAT ap scores are their only objective measure
Teachers were complaining about the quality of recent incoming classes
Ig
has anyone heard of someone getting into ucla with a 3.75 UC GPA?
or like low gpa's
Yes
For sure
wtf what major
where would scholarships show up for uci?
it was either some easy major or his ecs and essays are were on top
In your letter itself
oh lol
yeah it will have a short little descrip saying a scholarship
Was it the cost?
I'm sorry to hear that either way
π
Bro really held that for a whole day
Had to let it fester
yes they both gave me nothing
Damm
i might be cooked
Is ucsc out yet
some ppl got chancellors otherwise its on monday
or tues
i forgot
cuz i didnt apply
Aight thanks big guy
im short
it's the 18th
Not in spirit big dawg
so tuesday
Should have screenshotted that when I had a chance I Hve no idea what major I applied to at Berkeley
Business economics
you can log back in and check
u still can check bru
Girl I must be dumb asf cuz idek where to see it on that portal
on the uc app site
Why was this me π did u get into ucd
Forgot that existed ty!!
ngl i was stupid with my alt major choices
idk if easier ones would have helped though
i have easier ones and still an lowk flopping
i think its worth just applying what you want to apply for
yeah fs
i had random niche humanities majors as my alts and switched them to math bc of my friend right before submitting
waitlisted π
oh i read that as ucsd
i got into ucd
direct admission is so real i did uop too
lmao
thought i was gonna get rejected everywhere for no reason
i mean i lowkey did but still
Damn nice
i did pacific cuz why tf not
cc > uop
ye
dude uop keeps sending me emails
oh my god ucla nursing wtf
and texts too
and google keeps putting them in the promotions tab
yea its impossible basically
i just block colleges now
lmao
a girl i volunteered with got wailisted and committed to nyu then got off the waitlist and is there rn
dude updating things on your spreadsheet is the best part of college apps
i love my spreadhseet
i love my spreadsheet until it reminds me where i got waitlisted π
i just drag those schools to the bottom
god damn
so i dont have to look at them π€
i couldnt care less about the neu wl or the gtech rejection
she was an mlk scholar at nyu too
gtech is a bumass school anyway emory solos
hashtag lol
jfc
moment
yes
off the waitlist but yes
yeah idgaf about neu either
people with super super low stats get in
how many schools did u guys apply to?
like 30 π bc i had a fee waiver
holy shit
theres hope ππππππ
ngl i am coping tho i went to sc today
how's does financial aid work if u get off a waitlist
yeah me too
are you in state
but im getting myself to love it just in case
i think they still process
yes
i have davis so im chilling
this makes me feel so much better ty for sending
but ucsd would be nice
adding on to this if you get off you'd most likely get your major (3 of my friends did)
there are cows on thw way π₯
but this was last year keep in mind
oo
dw about it lol i applied chem e/mech e for almost all of mine
davis has better cows icl
lmao
it only gets better every year!!!! I say as they drag me to the asluym
asluym
thats a new word
is berkeley actually that holistic
LOLLLL
i feel like my grades were what got me wl everywhere
me too
not to be that person but waitlists are always a little bit rough. berkeley had a 24% waitlist acceptance rate in 2023 but it dropped to <1 in 2024. it really just depends on that school's institutional priorities for that specific year. not saying you shouldn't get your hopes up but don't not commit (and fall in love w) another school just bc of a previous year's waitlist acceptance rate.
idk tbh we donβt know
yes
omg ucsd womens basketball is going to march madness
me too π
either that or straight up rejected
what even is institutional priorities
bunch of people here who got wl or rejected at other UCs
i never get it
go tritons go!
im praying thats gonna be me
so mant stories of wl everywhere but cal
i'm at a point rn with ucsd i'll take my primary major, my alt, or my secondary alt like plz just take me
on every bodies soul i will be the only person to get uc berkeley and ucla
i've seen this metaphor that's like. let's say on the band every tuba player is a senior and they're graduating this year so if you as a tuba player apply they're gonna want you more. but if you're a bass player and everyone playing bass is a sophomore they alr have too many bass players.
that's a really broad generalization
yeah fr
ah ic
but something along the lines of what does their incoming class look like and what are they lacking that you could fill
so many of my intl friends have been getting into ucsd πππ
they like money
it will trust thats so niche
i know someone who applied to all the UCs and only got in to riverside and berkeley
praying ucsd is in desperate need for humanities majors to fill up spots on waitlist LET ME IN UCSD
tbh vibes at uci are the best imo but it kinda sucks how car dependent the campus is
you got this
OC in general is really bad with this
it's not just about major but yeah gl
yeah fr and a lot of them have college counselor manufactured ecs and essays
yea
i mean octa is actually pretty good
for a suburban bus system
but like
most walkable town in california is probably davis or san rafael
oc shouldnβt be ts suburban π
maybe berkeley
berkeley is pretty good
they have bart which is cool
@midnight vine how smelly are the stem classes at berkeley
metrolink is p good too
they have this student adventure pass thing: https://metrolinktrains.com/ticketsOverview/discounts/student-adventure-pass/
The Student Adventure Pass pilot program offers free Metrolink rides to K-12, technical school, college, and university students in Southern California with a valid student ID.
FUCK METROLINK CALTRAIN ON TOP
berkeley balding is an actual term so likely very
BEST COMMUTER RAIL IN THE USA
damm is ucla > berk?
is caltrain free?
metro north and lirr:
caltrain has more aura bro
lirr has aura
the new haven line
metro north is e
i don't go to them bc i'm not about to sit in a lecture hall w 800 smelly cs bros
LAMO
LMAO
ok i'm kidding but at least for me the smelliest classes have been the ones pretty early in the morning
yes
if no thats not aura
it uses japanese trains
bc you can tell half the people just woke up
train, sw*ss
train, japan π
i have been ignored at the bus stop by OCTA three times but i think that's a me problem π
like i had a rhetoric class at 9:30 in the morning where every mf smelled like shit
but my cs lecture smelled like HELL during the heat wave last semester
so it just depends on the class
new haven line uses overhead
wtf π
i've been ignroed like twice here
aw hell nah
i think suburban bus systems just do that'
berkeley is very walkable !!
Every day I pray for OC commuter rail...
like as a treat
i've just never used it
everybody was sweating
my physics honors class smells so bad no one showers or brushes
itβs actually unbearable
js suburban bus routes in general
it's hazing
but for stem studnets
lwk js go back 4 years and get covid and lose ur smell
ok chat what has more aura
almost no one takes the bus in suburban OC so i think the drivers just skip me on autopilot π
fym cherry picked
ok now which one is free π
lame
metrolink is not free for the average person
bucko
insane take
blah blah blah
i did bro its so bad
bombed my phys final bc the guy next to me smelled so bad
enrolling in a CC is free iirc
The Student Adventure Pass pilot program offers free Metrolink rides to K-12, technical school, college, and university students in Southern California with a valid student ID.
I had covid three times over the course of high school and i can still smell and taste π―
ok but metrolink coaches never look alike
ok but its free
LOL
I know its a little late but this is a special video of a compilation using old footage and new footage of Metrolink since they started services on October 26, 1992
Trains
will be added later on...
bucko the train seems to have crashed
nah but
caltrain is new gen aura
it has aura but like
metro north has aura for like 10 years now
ok what commuter rail has the least aura
A short video compilation of several Metro-North New Canaan Branch trains running along the 8.2-mile long route between Stamford, CT and New Canaan, CT. Locations include Glenbrook, Springdale, and New Canaan stations, along with Camp Avenue in Darien, CT.
Enjoy the video! Clips recorded on August 2, 2018 with an Apple iPhone 6S. Rendered and...
for me its WES
they truly donβt gaf
also MARC has no aura
marc has some aura
texrail has aura
all they shit looks so ugly im ngl
Bless up Ty bro
bro metra has literally zero aura
honestly replacing metra with a 5 lane highway wouldn't be too bad of an idea
every metra route
no
aside from electric π
ACE in the bay area it's so ugly and it doesn't even connect to BART afaik
nah their electric stuff is ugly af
fym ace has no aura
ace has hella aura
ace doesn't have aura im ngl
no aura at all bro
-1000 aura points
+10000 aura
ts moreso a criticism of societies perceptions of perfection
what are these trains
OH
altamont π corridor π₯Ί express π
coaster has insane aura
agreed
njt has some aura
but it's like
all the aura is from amtrak
and the arrows are pretty
whats the name of that one line that goes from chicago to south bend
not anymore
oh yeah
would have more aura if the railcars werent so ugly π
idk the single deckers look nice
i mean old but nice
the double deckers are so fucking ugly tho
ts image
EW
too low quality
highliners look so ugly
the coast starlight has aura Like even the name is such aura
It's a little ugly but in a rugged PNW way β€οΈ
chat does septa have aura
ts is aura tho
lirr
instead of ranking trains by aura you should rank buildings at different uc campuses to stay on topic!π€βοΈ
what if we rank
no
the aura of uc train stations
berkeley number last
βΉοΈβΉοΈβΉοΈ
you gotta take the bart from berkeley to sf and then caltrain to literally anywehre else thats relevant
Preach
the beef is wild
Bart is interesting
zero aura
santa cruz has nothing
bart station has aura tho
all my 18 years i've been in cali i've never seen anyone use public transit
just combine the train systems fr
ye
what really
bro lives in oc π
people caltrain all the time
oh i thought you meant bart station
i live in the bay
is slo out for any cs majors
you'll use it ALL THE TIME as a college student
everyone has their own car or smt or gets driven around
my dad caltrains all the time and he has a car
Crazy
#1268286173848010962
ik ppl at berkeley that take transit
ainnoway
same with ppl in sf proper
bro what dont you use it to gwt to sf
don't live near berkeley i live in the very south bay
it just depends on what area of bay u are in im ngl
oh dude vta is shut down
yea that's why π
ppl are pissed
san jose π no one uses public transit
car
vta is so ass tho
bay area core
maybe i should be glad UCI waitlisted me bc not having a driver's license here is the trenches π
teslas in school parking lots type shit
is this not aura
Get it
Actually Santa Cruz has a train into the forest
auraless station im ngl
yeah but its overpriced and not public transit
auraless train too wtf
why are the liveries not consistent
True, the public transit train isn't finished yet
not finished?
Next month, I swear (I've been saying this for 2 years now)
when tf was it going to be made
They are building a train to Watsonville
Get on it otherwise you will be embarrassed in college
tbh decent aura
LOL i appreciate the motivation thanks π
you mean 2008 versas π
used ofc
sd has aura im ngl
yes
but that's just cuz new
since when
Since like 2020
the right of way is there they can just slap a stadler flirt dmu
eh
i've been here
but it's fighting for its life
its alr
oh π i assumed bc san jose
if bart was in the mix ucb would be with uci
we're not all rich
only undergrad for now
UCSF medical school or UCSF hastings
taraval has aura too i guess
i wosh ucsf had undergrad too sf is such a goated city
ew
but photos are just ass π
yeah man its really goated when a homeless dude breaks into my car
well that area of san francisco is goated idk bout the other places π
SF has sm public transit aura tho
last time i've parked near the golden gate bridge i saw broken glass on the parking lot
dude the embarcadero streetcar has SO MUCH AURA
yeah i dont wanna go to uc tenderloin
INFINITE AURA
ucsb not entirely auraless
idk i thought most of cali doesn't rely on public transit
too many tourists im ngl
maybe cause i hang around san benito and monterey county as well but yk
dont go in the red circles
forgot about sb
sb has aura
fum not auraless
colonnade = instant aura
or arcade is prob more accurate
for entire state
it's like 3% uses public transportation
sf higher tho
so i'm not the weird one
there's other places in cali like monterey and salinas valley π
literally no good public transport there
only good public transport i've seen is BART in the bay
the entirety of the bay area is act pretty high tho
maybe amtrak
60% driving is very good for an entire msa
is san jose just not part of the bay or what
that one's just accounting for san francisco and the east bay
20% wfh and pay bay area rent π΅
if i lived in nyc i'd definitely use the subway no doubt
newsom can you speed up the high speed trains
construct more public transit anywhere please
san jose is considered it's own msa
because it has alot of employers
i forgot the exact metric the census uses but it's like lwk sorta vibes based
fremont π
look up oklahoma 
here is
san jose sf oakland combined statistical area
and san jose by itself on right
like san jose metro area
i'm talking about the whole bay area not the MSA
one on the left is pretty much entire bay area
i get that there's differences but i want to know about the bay in its entirety
tri valley is cooked
yeah 2.8% where i'm from
i thnk
one on left should cover
entire bay area
idk it doesn't mention exact borders for it
Holy I have a chance. I applied the same thing
bay area spans farther i thought
what even is this map too san jose sunnyvale santa clara area goes down into hollister and includes san benito county π
itβs based off of like centers of employment
so if ppl in one county still commute same way as another then itβs considered the same for census purposes
i'm just talking about the general san francisco bay area not whatever that is π
the san francisco bay area that includes santa clara county
Why?
idk itβs probably just somewhere within 60-70% usage of automobile
santa clara county goes down into the whole gilroy area
actually crazy why is it so big
don't even ask
gilroy deserves to be in san benito county
and morgan hill
cuz ppl in gilroy commute to san jose
data science
Whyβd you apply data science everywhere but then oceanic sciences at ucla lol
is tjat also in l&s
i wanna do something related to weather forecast modeling
ucla has a cool major that can very well suit my interest
might change later tho
u have a higher chance of getting in w oceanic sciences than data science as well
^^
lowkey
extend caltrain to salinas and send the sc train to salinas
do uc waitlists take any sort of written continued interest? (davis, irvine, sd?)
This is the proposed line
please π
where is all of our taxpayer dollars going to
besides public transport
wondering as well
i cant find anything about it online :( and theres nothing about it in the letters so idk
ill ask in waitlist warriors
is that a channel
yeah
i like dont have all the channels in this server for some reason
like it doesnt show all of them idk
yes!
ty ty
connecting to amtrak isnt enough
I just was giving more context
yea
I know for ucla at least they asked my friend to write a super long thing
U can write something for ucla
I know for ucla they do
Thatβs how I got in
josh allen i love you
u carried my fantasy team all year
i mixed mac and cheese to your 50 point game against the rams
Might commit to davis if not udub
Yeah
Thinker also is
He may be better to ask stuff to bc he actually had the freshman experience
Iβm a transfer
But it is also 1am for him
Hi hi
So basically my physics teacher is a bitch
And without any proof he gave me a 0 on a test cu he THOUGHT I was teaching
My school handled it horribly
And without any proof I got a 0
My grade dropped to a 57
And Iβm scared if I canβt bring it up to a C
Would I get deferred
This is a question for admissions
Have yβall heard any stories abt it?
Alr
What do you think?
I just want like something other than admissions
Hm
He thought you were cheating?
YES
heβs old and cranky
And our school is absolute shit with dealing with this typa stuff
They always base it off the tecaher
I got into Davis
And I donβt want to get deferred
But on the possibility I wonβt be able to bring my grade up
What would happen
Call UC Davis on Monday
Alright
Call from a trap phone
Okay
Yea
Ok
Donβt tell name
Thanks
Alr
I wonβt
Ughβ¦
This is so ass
I hate this
Now I canβt enjoy my senior year.
Nah ur good bro
No for real
Itβs not that deep
aauughhhhh
it is
Iβve seen horror stories abt being deferred
Itβs genuinely terrible if that happens to me
I would actually Kms
π₯π₯
UCβs less so tho
R u sure tho
The horror stories are real
Iβve seen Reddit posts
But mainly private
Wym private
Private schools
NO ITS NOT π
My roomate volunteered that
My dumbass school tries to make their stuff harder cu of all the Asian kids
Yeah I will try my best
Genueinly
Or think of ways to improve the grade even with the 0
Donβt go in aggressive
I need to bring it to a 70
Not gonna help u
5 more tests
50% test avg and I need a 66%
Tell him u got into your dream school
My teacher would try to which me
Touch
Not even kdiding
Heβs tried to before
Heβs old and heβs 60
Rubbed my shoulder once and I freaked out
Yet the principal is his wife so itβs even more buns
Damn thatβs a crazy dynamic
Bias
Our superintended follows insta OF models and got outed for it
Call skeeter Jean too
Do u wanna see the reel we did on him
Itβs hella funnt wanna see
Ok
Omg I canβt find itβ¦
Bro this shit insane
