<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>I have heard of this site from one of my buddies saying it's really helpful. And I would like to wish everybody good luck on their UC apps before I get into my question.</p>
<p>I am currently at a CCC and I had just submitted my app last night. I applied as an Econ major to UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCI, and UCD (the fee waiver was sweet). I am setting my heart on Berkeley so I would like to ask for you guys to chance me on that? THANKS!</p>
<p>GPA:
3.89 (1 B in US History?!?!?!?!?). I am taking 19 units right now including Calculus, Econ and English, etc. Aiming to get a 4.0 this semester and I think that'd get me to a 3.92?</p>
<p>ECs:
- Treasurer for Alpha Gamma Sigma (Honor Society): accounting works
- Member in College Budget Advisory Committee: help with the budget distribution and program reviews for academic departments during this budget cut crisis
- President/Founder for Student Business Association (SBA): provides networking opportunities by having guest speakers from Google, Yahoo and Cisco Systems come in and speak on their experiences. We are also working to form a book exchange forum for students to save money on textbooks
- Senator in Student Government (ASB): student rep. at diff. committees and meetings and I held several activities on campus</p>
<p>Community Service:
- Math Tutor
- Assistance at a Chinese School</p>
<p>That's pretty much it. I am not getting into my work experience because I am sure you guys are having fun right now reading my BLAHS! Let me know what you guys think! Thanks and GOOD LUCK!</p>
<p>Your chance is this good:</p>

<p>SIK,</p>
<p>Seriously though, your app looks pretty good. Did you complete all your pre-reqs from assist.org? Sorry if I overlooked that, I just got home from my 2nd Thanksgiving dinner (in laws) and I'm not in a normal state of mind (sugar coma?).</p>
<p>If you have indeed completed all the pre-reqs your school offers, and you write a great personal statement you have a very good chance of being accepted. Hopefully you're already done with it and got a lot of feedback on it. Good luck</p>
<p>Yup!! 2 Econs + 2 Calcs + IGETC. I am not an awesome writer so I had several people looked it over for me (including a CAL admission officer). I'm crossing my fingers! Are you in CAL Edward04?</p>
<p>SIK_DOULA, for the application fee waiver did you have to apply for EOPS?</p>
<p>I'm not sure if that's how you apply for the fee waiver (i checked 'yes' for that box btw)? But I have asked the same question to a UC rep once and she told me the system will ask you if you want to apply for a fee waiver at the "very end." It's based on ur family income (which you already have filled out I assume). </p>
<p>Once again, I know it looks very confusing at first. But if you go to the very end right before you submit it, you'll see everything!</p>
<p>Yes, I'm at Cal. One semester almost down, three to go.</p>
<p>Sik, I graduated Cal last spring and I think what got me in is extracurricular and student involvement. My GPA was 3.86. From what you list, you seem very involved and I would say you have a great chance of getting in. In the personal statement it helped me to mention specific programs/opportunities at Cal that I wanted to get involve in such as The Daily Cal newspaper. I really believe the gpa is great but involvement is just as good and you demonstrate that. Hope you get into Cal because it was the BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!</p>
<p>Thanks alot jerwood84. And what's ur major Edward04??</p>
