<p>hah no i actually did not think i’d get in at all. i was kinda siked about checking my portal but i really thought i wouldn’t get in. im still kinda shocked. it’s unbelievable. I got denied from NYU which was my dream school and USC…i’m waiting on. but this kinda made my life a little bit better.</p>
<p>lol actually, surprisingly i thought people wouldn’t be so nice on this thread. i thought theyd be like thats ridiculous u got in!! hah but i guess not. : ] it does suck for ppl who didn’t get in but then again, i didn’t get into my first choice…NYU. i guess berkeley is ranked higher…thats a plus? </p>
<p>Yeah, Berkeley is just… ;_; I would never dream of getting there.</p>
<p>I didn’t sign up for Berkeley. Might as well save some money and stress than pay $60 just to (probably) see a rejection letter. Anyway, I’m content with what I got into.</p>
<p>good job! your essays probably did it for you. Cal does a lot of the surprise admissions–I think that’s why they release admissions last. Quite a few people don’t get into any other UC, but get into Cal. You probably demonstrated a willingness of sorts to work on your own and try to improve yourself. I noticed you have quite a few extra-currics and 7 college classes.</p>
<p>yeah UCs don’t superscore. but as the flagship, Cal is probably the least numbers-based. numbers help, but Cal is known for admitting those with lower scores but who demonstrated some improvement or ability to think for him or herself.</p>
<p>And ignore KerpalSingh. he’s just on a sore loser track.</p>
<p>Berkeley does comprehensive admission. So for those with perfect scores/superhigh GPAs, that’s not ALL that matters. As you see from this topic, grades are important, but they want well-rounded individuals, too. Congrats!!! GO BEARS!!!</p>
<p>how do you know. have you even read her essay?</p>
<p>And just based on how you’re acting and your facebook, even I would reject you. again though, based on how you’re acting and your facebook, stanfurd would accept you.</p>
