<p>Applying to EECS in Berkeley. I'm aware my EC's are weak and that EECS is extremely competitive.
I estimate myself an average or lower shot, what can you tell me?</p>

<p>match/ high match if you’re in state. if you live in cali you’re in good shape, do some volunteer hours:)</p>

<p>I do live in Cal. However, I got rejected from UCLA is why I’m so worried.</p>

<p>Those are some really good stats. I’m surprised you were rejected from UCLA, but all hope is not lost, yet… Berkeley may surprise you.</p>

<p>Do you have a back-up school that you’ll be happy with?</p>

<p>Got into carnegie mellon but I really want UCB :p</p>

<p>If UCB doesn’t come through, you can’t go wrong with CMU.</p>

<p>UCLA and UCB are weird with their admissions criteria.</p>

<p>Did you get rejected from EE at UCLA?</p>

<p>No computer eng, but EE was my alt major</p>

<p>Welp, got rejected from berkeley :frowning: there goes my first choice</p>

<p>Feel better friend :(</p>
