i have a 0% chance of getting into berkeley

<p>i looked on statfinder for berkeley for math/stats major. 0/3 people got in last year who didn't apply from cc (i go to ucsd) with a gpa of 3.4-3.6 (my gpa was 3.43 at time of update, 3.50 now).</p>

<p>i know its nowhere near a valid sample, but it sure is depressing. </p>

<p>so if you are feeling bad about your chances to berk, just remember the guy who has a 0% chance ;)</p>

<p>i wouldn’t say zero, try to keep your hopes up… did you apply to ucla?</p>

<p>yes, so i think i have around a 50% chance to ucla, seeing as math/econ is 70% acceptance rate and the average gpa of math/econ admit is like 3.56 or something</p>

<p>If it makes you feel better, we can chill if we both get into LA. </p>

<p>I applied for Busi Econ though… and since the 31st of Jan, I realized I am more passionate about doing Math and Econ…</p>

<p>May god help us both =D</p>

<p>well if you really want to switch into math/econ i’m sure you can, it’s doing the opposite that would be challenging.</p>

<p>yeah i’ve always been good at math, but about a year ago i decided i really love econ, so i am currently doing ucsd’s joint math/econ major. and if i don’t get into berk or la, i’ll be okay.</p>

<p>only God could get me into Berk. that, or maybe some drunk admin officers that mistake my 3.43 for a 3.93</p>

<p>it is unfortunate that you applied bus econ though. you have a much tougher chance. you would be auto admit (i’m assuming) if you applied to math/econ</p>

<p>I just took Calc and D.E. for fun. I didn’t take Linear though so I was afraid to switch (not all pre-reqs completed).</p>

<p>I got into SD’s joint math/econ program though. And who knows, we may both end up at Berk. Though I personally am leaning more towards LA.</p>

<p>not all hope is lost man…</p>

<p>less than 2 wks for UCLA, less than 3 for Cal</p>

<p>supa, you apply to haas or econ or math at berk?</p>

<p>I am Math Econ major.
Oh i wished that Cal offered that major as well…
I too took calc3 and de.
And i am left with Linear Algebra.
I spoke to the UCLA tap consellor and she told me that its fine for non-impacted majors to be missin out on a couple pre reqs. cos it dont matter much to them</p>

<p>i think there’s still a chance.</p>

<p>i apply to cal for stat as well. thou i am transfering from cc. </p>

<p>loopinc, agree w/ you. i wish cal have the math/ econ major as well</p>

<p>I think you still have a chance, please don’t worry. There are always exceptions…and it might be you this year! [: </p>

<p>April 30th…X__X;;</p>
