<p>For Haas applicants: how many units have you taken each semester and can you please post your stats?</p>

2

<p>are units the same as credit hours? I'm from PA and we have credits, each class is usually 3-4 credit hours...</p>

<p>I took 15 - 5 classes (Spring), 15 - 5 classes (Summer), 19- 6 classes (Fall), 20-6 classes (Spring)</p>

3

<p>Yes they are,</p>

<p>how much they are worth depends on wether your system is quarter or semester</p>

<p>because haas is semester and it looks like yours is too, 3 credit hours for you = 3 units at haas (provided they transfer)
however IF you are on the quarter system you would have to divide by 1.5 to get the number of units a class would be worth in terms of semester (haas)
as in 6 quarter units= 6/1.5 = 4 semester units</p>

<p>Wow, I wouldn't be surprised if a strong hanful of the Haas applicants on here make the grade! It seems to me that the most manically motivated would be on here. I'll post my stats since that's what everyone on here is pouring through the threads for.</p>

<p>I'm going a little crazy waiting as a matter of fact.</p>

<p>GPA 4.0

<p>I think we should all stay positive assume that there's a correlation between going insane together on these threads and getting in :-)</p>

19

<p>+/- is so bizarre, ccc's need to standardize grading in my opinion. </p>

<p>I think the people willing to post their stats here are more self-selective than Haas in general ;-) Based on my experience with great studets blowing off ec's, at my school at least, I think these are possible examples of what makes the difference. I'm trying to be positive!</p>

20

<p>I know a person 10 times better than me, but still got rejected.(just a little bit exaggerating). I really don't know what are they looking for......do you think there is a correlation between the level of "hottness" and acceptance rate?</p>
