<p>hahah @emilsinclair9 i know man i remember coming on here last year just reading everyone elses acceptances jealously waiting for my moment, and its 7 weeks away…</p>

<p>If you get into berkeley and I dont im gonna be *<strong><em>ed!!! and you should be *</em></strong>ed if i get in and you dont because I am Phil major for Berk with a 3.75 with pretty much the same stats and units as you</p>

<p>Whoah man, that’s crazy! haha yeah, I remember in another thread a while back that you said we had really similar stats for UCB philosophy. It would be amazing if we both got in, but absolutely terrible if we both didn’t. From everyone I’ve talked to (including UCB reps and counselors) they all say I have a really good chance. That would probably mean that you have an equal or even better chance haha 3.75 > 3.74 :p.</p>

<p>God I can’t believe you’ve had to wait this long. You seriously deserve it. I just joined in September and didn’t even have UCB on my list of schools until late November. I had no clue I even had a chance there. I can’t wait for those decisions to come out.</p>

<p>Lol yeah, that would be weird if one of us got in and the other rejected. haha appeal time!! I hope that doesn’t have to happen though. </p>

<p>If you get in are you going to do summer school at UCB? </p>

<p>Anyway, I wish ya the best man!</p>

<p>I live in LA and I havent been up to the Bay Area since i was a kid, so UCLA is my number 1 right now until I go visit Berkeley in the next couple months. Yeah I didnt know i had a chance at UCLA or Berkeley until i saw this site because everyone at my CCC assume you need a 4.0 to get in. </p>

<p>I would like to take summer courses wherever i end up deciding to go. Of all the advice my friends have given me from UCLA, the biggest advice was to do summer school. Since were gonna be on summer break from the End of May to the End of Sept. to jump right into a 10 week class is impossible to jumpstart ur brain to be able to do all the work and reading without doing a lot of reading or summer school before your first semester. </p>

<p>but then again…i might want to just relax the summer before we jump into the hardest semester we have ever had. lol</p>

<p>Yeah im .01 GPA better than you NA NA NA NA NA haha</p>

<p>I hope we both get in. My goal going into CCC was to go to San Diego State but my grades just kept getting better and better and then here I am waiting on UCLA and Berkeley. Never would have thought this day would come…not to jinx it lol knock on wood</p>

<p>@ Eshug1: “Never would have thought this day would come”</p>

<p>lol you’re telling me. I always wanted to go to UCB, but figured I wouldn’t ever have a rat’s chance in hell. I failed out of high school when I was 16. That wasn’t for lack of knowledge, but I was just extremely lazy and had some emotional issues as many do when growing up.</p>

<p>Yeah, I also figured I’d be going to a state school until I found College Confidential. One of the greatest things to ever help me lol. </p>

<p>Well anyway, if you do decide to go to Berkeley, I’ll be doing summer school there if I get in. Hit me up haha. I’ll be living in one of the coops around campus. Of course, I have to get in first. God, April 30 seems so far away.</p>

<p>hahaha i dont know how people have the maturity in 9th grade to care enough to try hard in school…and having to wake up at 7 didnt really work for me. My junior year i stopped going for 2 months lol Oh teenagers. </p>

<p>Yeah this site is pretty much a lifesaver. Once we are admitted to schools, we have everyone on here to remind us of deadlines of when to send transcripts and igetc so we dont forget.</p>

<p>Seriously, its gonna be FOREVER… I just want to hear from someee schools so I know that im officially transferring somewheree so UCSD and SB hurry the F*** UP</p>

<p>its almost april…BRuins and bears are comin’ soon</p>
