Berkeley waitlist

<p>@parkreation do you mind sharing your stats?</p>

<p>Is anyone here waitlisted as a Bio major?</p>

<p>@cbj950613‌ Not at all, here they are:</p>

<p>UW GPA: 4.0, W GPA: 4.6 ish
SAT I: 2290 (math 800, CR 760, writing 730)
SAT II: math II 800, bioM 760, chem 730
ACT: n/a
APs: took like 8, mostly 5s, a couple 4s
Extracurriculars: I don’t want to rattle these off, but I think I’m pretty active in both my school and community. Leadership in nearly all my activities.
Essays: ehh okay, first one was kind of weak</p>

<p>Overall, I don’t think there’s one thing that stands out about me, I’m pretty well-rounded. When it comes to the waitlist, I believe it’s going to be a bit more subjective. They’re looking for people to fill certain “roles,” rather than boost their stats. I guess they just liked what I had to offer as my academics are pretty average in the CoE.</p>

<p>@MyPizzaHut‌ I am. I’m also OOS.</p>

<p>hey just found this forum! waitlisted as well for ucb and ucla and really hoping to go to ucb but :confused: chances seem kinda narrow… since im international lol does anyone know how many they are going to accept from the waitlist?</p>

<p>Friend accepted yesterday for CS, max gpa/sat.</p>

<p>@violet1996 I wish you the best…especially with the fact that they want OOS students. It seems however that there is a good chance for more people to get off the waitlist</p>

<p>@MyPizzaHut‌ thanks! Good luck to you too!</p>

<p>JUST GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!!
international student at L&S :D</p>

<p>I was seriously freaking out yesterday while reading this thread
and this morning I got an email from Berkeley!
So have hope guys!! Good luck to everybody!! </p>

<p>My daughter was admitted off the wait list today. </p>

<p>Major - chemical engineering
California resident
GPA 3.95 (uw), 4.4 (w)
SAT 1 - 2110
ACT - 32
SAT 2 - math 760, chem 800, history 800
EC’s - a fair amount, but not more than what I have seen from others.</p>

<p>Accepted to - Minnesota, Wisconsin, UICU, Colorado School of Mines, UC Santa Barbara, UC Davis, Purdue, and Case Western.</p>

<p>Denied - UCLA</p>

<p>SIR - Purdue (Honors College)</p>

<p>She has to decide which school she wants. Her plan is to visit Berkeley again on Monday to help her decide. Her visit to Purdue was very impressive.</p>

<p>i think the email reads we will be releasing the decisions to students on the wait list through out may. and all decisions will be finalized no later than june1…did anybody get a email like this…means we wait and all is not over as yet.</p>

<p>@Lef101‌ I SIR’d to UCSD prior to Berkeley; still trying to figure out how to cancel the UCSD one lol. Thanks and good luck!</p>

<p>AH2005 what time did u receive the email?</p>

<p>^ The general email was sent at 2:31 pm. The status change email for admitted students at 6:01, even though decisions were up in the portal earlier.</p>

<p>just got in off the wait list! 5 days to make a huge decision…</p>

<p>@howaboutno‌ did u get the email at 6pm too?</p>

<p>I got it at 9 AM (China), which I think is 6 PM in California. </p>

<p>@cbj950613 I got the email at around 6 PM California time. </p>

<p>i see a lot of waitlisted applicants have been accepted!</p>

<p>YEAH EXCEPT FOR ME <em>sobs</em></p>
