Must Read for ALL UC Hopefuls

<p>So because they are in law school now that gives them a sort of higher level mentality than the average person of how the transfer process works? My mom's an engineer and thinks the transfer process is crap. Does that mean shes right? Just because someone is highly educated in a certain field does not mean that they are on a higher level than the rest of us... in this case about the transfer process. What I am saying about transfering to a UC is correct, you are the one who is wrong. Instead of talking to one counselor about the transfer process and TAP and believing their every word, you should have gone to a few to make sure everything you heard was correct. If I went and talked to a UCLA rep and he/she told me that a 2.0 GPA will get me into UCLA, would it be wise to just believe it? Thats essentially what you are doing. So if anything you are the one who has lost all credibility for providing false factual information about the transfer process to a UC.</p>

<p>Well in terms of ECs for Haas, the rep told me that ECs involving business and giving back to the community is big for them.</p>

<p>lostincode...what? I am perfectly calm. I am just sick of Colin spreading his condescending propaganda. No worries :)</p>

<p>"So because they are in law school now that gives them a sort of higher level mentality than the average person of how the transfer process works?"</p>

<p>No actually because they went through the transfer process they have an idea of how it works. </p>

<p>"My mom's an engineer and thinks the transfer process is crap. Does that mean shes right?"</p>

<p>Did your mom go through the transfer process? Or does she make narrow minded assumptions much like yourself. Also in the other thread you seemed to take your moms word as gold.</p>

<p>"Instead of talking to one counselor about the transfer process and TAP and believing their every word, you should have gone to a few to make sure everything you heard was correct. If I went and talked to a UCLA rep and he/she told me that a 2.0 GPA will get me into UCLA, would it be wise to just believe it?"</p>

<p>Why do you think I only spoke to one counselor one time?? Here we go with your crazy assumptions again. I have spoken to many different counselors from many different schools over the past two years. </p>

<p>"Thats essentially what you are doing. '</p>

<p>How so? So when I believe the counselors I speak to I am naive but when you believe the counselors you speak to you are correct? That is interesting.</p>

<p>"What I am saying about transfering to a UC is correct, you are the one who is wrong."</p>

<p>That is right I forgot you are on the admissions committee.</p>

<p>Honestly I feel bad for you. I will leave it at that. :)</p>

<p>For transfers to Haas, do activities you've done during your high school years count towards EC's? [Not necessarily exclusive to the school; ex: starting a company]</p>

<p>Transfers to Anderson with TAP: Can you utilize TAP to apply to Anderson and default to Bus. Econ if rejected?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Starting a company would be a good thing to mention if you are applying as a bus admin major.;)</p>

<p>Hmm maybe not because Anderson is a different school than College of L&S.</p>

<p>I never thought I would say this but I miss Gabe...</p>

<p>"That conflicts with the information from actual counselor conferences where UCLA advisors say a 3.2 with TAP is NOT enough.</p>

<p>GPA is FAR MORE important than TAP.</p>

<p>Those statistics (about 92/94 getting in, etc.) are misleading because it doesn't say what GPAs those TAP people had. There's a good chance none had below a 3.4."</p>

<p>You don't go to anderson (or apply to anderson) unless you are a grad student. Bus Econ majors are regular undergrads who apply to the college of L & S and whose decisions are made by undergrad adcoms. This whole applying to Anderson thing doesn't make sense.</p>

<p>And kids. Why are we still arguing about this?</p>

<p>GPA is v. important.</p>

<p>TAP is helpful. </p>

<p>Everything else is good, too.</p>

<p>Fin.</p>
