<p>UCI2011, so Irvine is/was your top choice?</p>
<p>The truth is, UCLA has been my dream school since I was in the 7th grade. However, I think I ruined my chances with my sophomore year. It wasn't that I didn't try- I just made some stupid academic decisions. However, during my junior year I got over a 4.2. So with my GPA and 2000ish SAT scores, my chances for UCLA are slim. </p>
<p>Therefore, I am/was trying to make myself feel better by telling myself that UCI is/was awesome. It's a good school, but now that decision letters I coming out, I realize I still TRULY want to go to UCLA.</p>
<p>=(</p>
<p>I think I'm really emotional about this college thing right now.</p>
<p>UCI2011, i feel exactly the same way, except my stats are way lower than yours =[</p>
<p>^ Hey, well it's nice to have someone in the same boat. Are you looking to go to UCI too?</p>
<p>Your honesty is refreshing, and I think we are all thinking and feeling the same way. I'm just a few minutes from UCLA and my parents went there, and I love just going up there and hanging out. But I know that more than half the people on CC and more than half the seniors living in CA who applied to UCLA would have to literally fall off a cliff before I would get in. But I'm not looking at the other UCs as second rate. They all have their special quality, and I will be proud to go to any one of them.</p>
<p>^That's kind of the way I feel. Which UCs would you consider besides UCLA? I'm feeling alot better about this whole scenario. I think UCI, in some ways, fit me better. UCLA is a pretty big party school, and I really don't find drunkeness and mindless partying attractive. </p>
<p>Now, I and everyone else can just continue this wait.</p>
<p>I hope they post more admission decisions for Friday! </p>
<p>Cuz I doubt notifications will get updated over the weekend.</p>
<p>You guys think its worth staying up til 12 again?</p>
<p>are they updating the decision thingy everyday or once a week, anybody know?</p>
<p>I don't think the updates are going to be once a week... probably more than that.</p>
<p>I'm not staying up until 12:00. I need sleep tonight =O.</p>
<p>since everyone's talking about preferences, i'm in the same boat as you guys.</p>
<p>ucla is pretty much a dream for me and so i think my second choice is a tie between UCSD and UCI.</p>
<p>also, i think they will post decisions more frequently than once a week; perhaps almost daily.</p>
<p>USC is actually more of a dream school to me than UCLA </p>
<p>(don't shoot me!)</p>
<p>I'm really digging Marshall's School of Business and Annenberg Communication.</p>
<p>Also, because I'm an OOS student, financial issues' about the same.</p>
<p>hell ya ima stay up, i dont have school on fridays. UCI2011, not to contribute to the cliche but i also feel the same way as you. I wish i could go to UCLA but my stats arent that great either. But UCI is a great school, its rank is very good and I know many people that go there who are very satisfied. Your college experience is what you make it. If you participate in clubs for your major or on intermural sports teams, etc. youll have a great time. But as for other UCs, Im also looking for UCR, or UCSB, UCSD, i know thats about half, haha. I doubt ill get into UCSB, but the rest it will be a tough decision.</p>
<p>amen! especially to uci2011 and the brian. i hate people asking "what's your first choice?" becuase i really want to say "ucla" but i know that i'm not getting in with my stats. so i have to say "1st choice UCLA. But realistic 1st choice is UCI or UCSD"</p>
<p>^^ i agree. college life is what you make of it.</p>
<p>and if i'm up, i might as well stay up ;]</p>
<p>4 minutes...anyone on?</p>
<p>^^^I ment i prolly wont get in UCSD as for SB ill prolly get in...I hope. JUst to fix my mistake</p>
<p>hooray uci for night 2 of wasted hopes. lame!!! POST THE DECISIONS ALREADY.</p>
<p>yeah, nothing changed for me</p>
<p>same thing for me.........</p>
<p>Roger that me too, lame ****, guess i gotta check at 9.</p>
