<p>What 'new information' do you think you would include? Or do you guys not want to even thinking about this because you're afraid you'd only jinx your admissions decision? Go post crazy here.</p>

2

<p>Therse no point to appeal. Unless something mindbogglingly awesome happened to you int he span of 4 months. Like you won the Nobel Prize.</p>

3

<p>nope.. not worth it. i don't deserve to get in and if i do get in then its a miracle. </p>

<p>I just hope LA and USC accepts me... i really want to go there.</p>

4

<p>no there's no point...it's near impossible</p>

5

<p>Seems to be really lively around here for sunday night, people are getting antsy...</p>

<p>I am definitely going to appeal. They really try to discourage you, but thats because they don't want 8 million people appeal. </p>

<p>I am going to have all of my profs sign a thing that says I have an 'A' in their class this semester, add a some community service that I started during the app filing period and have continued to do, and letters of rec.</p>

6

<p>****ing aye...</p>

<p>even if i get like bomb ass recommendations from several professors, one of whom went to Cal?</p>

<p>OMG, I am trully ****ed.</p>

7

<p>I think I saw somewhere that 10% of appeals get in, I will take those odds...</p>

8

<p>I have a great opertunity waiting for me at UCSD. I will repsect the decision the adcoms make (then secretly plot to make them sorry for rejecting me by being the greatest lawyer the world has ever seen, or go to Boalt Hall, whichever comes first).</p>

9

<p>If Cal rejects me it would make the whole "shoud I go to UCLA" thing a lot easier for me.</p>

10

<p>thats true...maybe we can take cal rejections as blessings in disguise.</p>

11

<p>im hoping that when cal rejects me, they'll accept more qualified people and they in turn will turn in their SIR's freeing spots up at UCLA for me.. mUHAHAHA</p>

<p>"At the transfer level Berkeley received about 500 appeals and granted fall admission to 10 students and spring admission to 46 students."</p>

<p>Thats from 2k3...</p>

13

14

<p>2%? That more like 10%</p>

15

<p>omg... i must be drunk</p>

16

<p>I could go for a couple of drinks...</p>

17

<p>i am so nervous today and i am drinking already..</p>

<p>indeed, i didn't see that there are 500 cases</p>

18

<p>wow, i should prolly drink too. but i have a ****ing aye midterm.</p>

19

<p>matt, did you get into ucla?</p>

20

<p>I got accepted by UCD, UCI, UCSD</p>

<p>but I also got rejected by Wash U in st. louis and U Mich...</p>

<p>Tomorrow is the biggest day for me</p>

<p>Waiting for UCLA and UCB.. if they don't accept me, my life is over</p>
