<p>I wouldn’t be saying that if they didn’t apply for engineering :p</p>
<p>Tastycles, did you apply to UCLA? ;)</p>
<p>Anyways, some of these people might have slipped through? What if I slipped through? :o</p>
<p>Thanks for the wishes people 
Chem was pretty okay!
All the best for math, CBSE-ers xD</p>
<p>Hello everyone! Long time!
Btw i read aboutthe UCLA likely letters you all got! Congrats! I got an email for an open engineering seminar but not a likely letter :(</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Will they admit more number of Internationals next year too?? :p</p>
<p>@Bist, I’m pretty sure that Open House invitation was the likely. They wouldn’t tell rejected students to plan a trip to campus on April 15th. :P</p>
<p>Cal will increasingly accept more internationals just because of their full pay status. For comparison, Cal accepted 14% internationals in 2009 and 25% internationals in 2011. This statistic accounts for the 50% increase in international applicants in 2011 by assuming that the same number of seats were available.</p>
<p>Just read this and thought I should share it with you all, purely, for reading pleasure, not sitting in judgement at all.</p>
<p>“I am not impressed by the Ivy League establishments. Of course they graduate the best - it’s all they’ll take, leaving to others the problem of educating the country. They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money - provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it. ~Peter DeVries”</p>
<p>@anialways: That quote is one of the few that me (and perhaps others as well) need to be frequently reminded of. It’s one of those truths that no one mentions.</p>
<p>Yeah, I did apply, but not to HSSEAS. I applied for liberal arts, undeclared.</p>
<p>@bist The invitation is the likely :p</p>
<p>congrats bist 
Btw, I was going through the forums about Drakes Scholarship at UCB, there were some students with low scores but good GPA getting the invitations whereas some students with great scores did not get any invitation.
Do you need to apply for the financial aid to be eligible for the scholarship?? 
</p>
<p>Congo Bist!! :)</p>
<p>Bist, congratulations on the likely :D</p>
<p>Cobalt, didn’t you apply to UCLA? :eek:</p>
<p>No UCB screwups this time?</p>
<p>None yet ;)</p>
<p>I agree with Ivy League being those schools who take in only those who have that spark within them. But we can’t blame them for doing so. MIT, Caltech and Stanford accept geniuses and those who have done more in their teens than many of us can only hope to in our lifetime. Their motive isn’t educating more and more people, its getting more geniuses, spoiltbrats and all those who’ll make it big in their lives to attend the Ivies. They truly epitomise the concept of capitalism that runs in the US…</p>
<p>It’s… Pi day.
Let the endless waiting begin.
Decisions come out in exactly 18 hours and 28 minutes.</p>
<p>Mesa gonna bake to pass time today.</p>
<p>Even though I didn’t apply to MIT, I’m nervous about whether my friends will get in.</p>
<p>Thank you for not applying. :D</p>
<p>I don’t think it would’ve mattered if I had applied. My stats aren’t competitive enough for MIT.</p>
