EECS CS CE EE Applicants to UC - Join

<p>Well, I didn't apply to UCSD so it no longer matters, but I wouldn't consider going there anyway. I love LA and SF too much. (Sure Berkeley isn't SF but it's close enough, heh) I visited the UCSD area, and it's not for me. Too sleepy and not enough of a real city. Downtown SD isn't bad, but it still doesn't come close to LA or SF for me.</p>

<p>I still haven't heard from UCI! I hope I don't have to wait until May....</p>

<p>I will be rejected from every UCs I applied with CS major. (For example UCLA, UCD) UCSD will be next. 3.9, 3.8 (WIP). They said I had only 57 units by the end of Spring 05!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>"They said I had only 57 units by the end of Spring 05!!!!!!!!!!"</p>

<p>and did you? How did they count differently than you? why would you apply if you wouldnt have enough units done?</p>

<p>I sure that I had around 60 because I took a philosophy class in winter intersession 05. On the other hands, I summitted my application 2 days due to deadline so I don't really count my units or eventually, I could miss to report a class in one of semesters somewhere. Anyway, I will go to Cal poly for Software engineering</p>

<p>I got into UCI this morning for ICS. 3.70 GPA</p>

<p>Omg...ICS has not notified me...ohh well, I am missing 4-5 UCI equivalent classes...ahh screw it...</p>

<p>Go UCLA Computer Science Department :) !!</p>

<p>Rejected from UC Berkeley EECS. The reason was most likely because I applied as an intercampus transfer.</p>

<p>GPA: ~3.85
Major: EECS</p>

<p>From UCSB.</p>

<p>phpguru</p>

<p>Rejected - UC BERKELEY</p>

<p>MAJOR EECS - less than 14% acceptance rate.
GPA - 3.91
Major GPA - 4.0
All prereq classes - All math, all physics, all CS, 3 qtrs of English, few GEs. With tons of extra CS classes.</p>

<p>No worries. Only UCB has the right to reject me. After all, EECS is tied #1 with MIT and Stanford</p>

<p>There's always grad school! (Crossing my fingers for MIT PhD EECS)</p>

<p>phpguru, same here....We will force them to accept us for Grad school esp MIT...i need to pick up my GRE books now :)</p>

<p>MIT doesn't take GREs! heh its all grades and research</p>

<p>phpguru</p>

<p>no way dude...are you serious? cuz i have the Usnews premium edition Engineering ranking which lists the avg GRE score for engineering for MIT...</p>

<p>Yep they don't use them at all in determining your admission. Take the GREs anyway since I'm sure MIT will not be the only school you apply to.</p>

<p>ya...by the way, where will you go UCLA Vs. UCSD ?</p>

<p>I'm at UCSB right now so I'm leaning towards staying here. UCSD/UCLA/UCSB are all neck and neck for Electrical Engineering. I haven't heard back from SD anyway.</p>

<p>phpguru</p>

<p>ohh ic...but since you will be trying for MIT...you might need a school like SD and LA which have a slight edge in undergraduate studies.</p>

<p>Yeah I was wondering about that. I was wondering if anyone from MIT knows about their graduate admissions. From what I remember, they only accept <2 people on average per school. 100 total. Would be easier from here, no?</p>

<p>phpguru</p>

<p>dang...<2...MIT EECS is hardcore...</p>

<p>100 nationwide. And on top of that, after two years, due to the PhD qualifying exam, they cut out 40. So only 60/100 will make it to a PhD. INSANE!</p>
