Anyone got accepted at Berkeley for statistics/ math major?

<p>some of ma international student frens got rejected with 3.8 California CC GPA by UCB and UCLA for statistics major....they are saying they should have applied as math major.....</p>

<p>..since we see some int. students with 3.7 getting accepted for math major,,</p>

<p>Anyone got accepted at berkeley for statistic or math..
share your gpa and info~</p>

<p>i got in as a math major. 4.0 all prereqs completed. i will attend ucla.</p>

<p>Accepted: UCLA UCSD UC Berkeley
Rejected: none
Pending: none
GPA: 3.83 (Last 32 units 4.0)
Units: i forget
Major: Applied Math (Berkeley), Math/Econ(UCLA and UCSD)
will attend: UC Berkeley</p>

<p>statistics is in the same department as math for uc berkeley so it wouldn’t have made a difference since they admit by department.</p>

<p>then you must have had a 3.57 before finishing your last 32 units.</p>

<p>Actually, it was a 3.62</p>

<p>yeah i don’t know how you think you can determine his GPA prior unless you knew how many units he had… math major?</p>

<p>3.83 = ((32<em>4)+(k</em>x))/(32+x) or -5.44 = (k-3.83)x</p>

<p>where x = # of units previously attempted
and k = GPA of units</p>

<p>so… by my calculation you had 26 units completed, prior to your 32 unit run</p>

<p>bored… obviously … Econ major</p>

<p>i took a couple classes P/NP which is why my total unit counted toward my gpa is only 58.</p>

<p>oh i had assumed you were not counting your classes this semester. Either way, i was just practicing my “equation creation” skills, instead of studying for my business law final in the morning</p>

<p>well i calculated the average completed units a math major has that is admitted to berk, minus the average units a person takes in their last semester and got 53 semester units. with my calculation he would have had 21 units completed before the 4.0 streak which would give him a 3.57 before the 32 units. as you can see my answer was more of an educated assumption.</p>

<p>oh yeah and that too haha</p>

<p>i got in from uc with a 3.43. lol</p>

<p>my roommate chinese-international student</p>

<p>Accepted: UCLA, UCSD
Rejected: UCB
Pending:
GPA: 4.0
Units: 100
Major: Statistics
Will attend: UCLA</p>

<p>is that 100 uc units or ccc units?</p>

<p>Accepted: UCLA, UC Berkeley
Rejected: Got in everywhere
Pending: None
GPA: 3.5
Units: 74
Major: Math/Econ (UCLA), Statistics (UC Berkeley)
Will attend: Not sure yet.</p>

<p>UCLA admit Math Econ and UCB econ Major.
Idk which one, ill probably do a double major in applied math as well @ UCB.
But the Math Econ major @ UCLA is pretty promising.
This is how i calculate my GPA.
n(A)+n(B)+n(C)/x * 4.
Where x = number of Units
n(c) = Number of Units*Grade point for that grade.</p>

<p>What exactly about Math/Econ makes you feel that it’s promising?</p>

<p>Bamp. Please state Ecs as well.</p>

<p>bamp
I’m applying for fall 2010.</p>

<p>bamp? vamp? twilight? bump.</p>

<p>@Tiberus,</p>

<p>Math/Econ+a couple other non-required courses is excellent for anyone hoping to move into a graduate study of economics, development economics, or a field in which there are not yet applicable pre-defined models.</p>
