Berkeley EECS?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>But, EECS=impossible to get into. Or so I'm told.</p>

<p>Hopefully, we'll both get in, then this entire discussion will be rendered nill.</p>

<p>I was rejected from Berkeley EECS (out of state) in 2000 with a 4.4/1510/800/800/780/10 AP 5's, National Merit Finalist, National AP Scholar, Top 50 in National Chemistry Olympiad, etc.</p>

23

<p>Oh wow, I'm screwed. </p>

<p>This is why I should've applied in Women's studies.</p>

24

<p>What's EECS again? electrical engineering computer science?</p>

25

<p>Yes, it's the most selective major at Berkeley.</p>

26

<p>oh... is that a double major or something? cuz i never heard of EE and CS together..</p>

27

<p>EECS is impossible, thats why I applied to Mechanical, but im out of state, bummer for me. </p>

<p>Desbravo....that 3.75 weighted GPA is killing you</p>

28

<p>EECS is just the name of the department. You can choose to concentrate in either EE or CS or a general option in between the two.</p>

29

<p>Somebody tell me I'm not screwed. Please?</p>

30

<p>you're screwed.</p>

31

<p>I don't think you're screwed. Admission to UCLA and UCB is nothing less than a tossup; they have so many (over)qualified applicants that it is hard to say if you'll get in for sure, but I think you have just as good a chance as anybody else.</p>

<p>Good luck :)</p>

32

<p>In 8 days, I plan on logging onto MyBerkeley App, and seeing something to the extent of:</p>

<p>Howdy Cal Applicant! Considering how much you rock, and how much we like you, its a no brainer that you've been admitted to UC BERKELEY BYATCH!!!</p>

<p>Wakakakakkakakakakka!</p>

<p>Hopefully, I'll get in, and so will everyone else who applied and desperately needs to get in to ensure their respective sanities.</p>

<p><33 Much loves! ^_^</p>

<p>That's the spirit!</p>

33

<p>I applied to ME instead of EECS. I think its like a 39% acceptance vs 11%, so ill take my chances with the better odds.</p>

34

<p>Berkeley has on an average 24% acceptance rate.</p>

35

<p>yea i think certain majors are harder than others (like EECS). though when combined, it gives an average of 24% acceptance rate.</p>
