The Unfortunate W

<p>^same to you (sarcasm implied)</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>Lets all be friends! :)</p>

<p>the moment you take random_monkey seriously, the terrorists win.</p>

<p>I have heard that Ws look really bad for graduate school(same as an F) though… then again I’ve also heard that they’re OK as long as they’re kept to a minimum same as with transferring. I don’t know and i’ll have to look more into the matter myself. In general less is more though. For the record though, I don’t have A TON of experience. I’m not the guru on college transfers unfortunately(all I wanted was into UCI which is 5 miles from where I live and UCI is easy to get into even without TAG). I do know a bit, but it’s mostly just what’s regurgitated from around here and I very well could be a victim of group think. What I’ve heard though is that for undergraduate transfers 3 or 4 Ws is OK as long as they’re infrequent and scattered around, or they’re clustered in at one time and you can explain them(EG: you were in a coma).</p>

<p>Xelink, that is basically exactly what I’ve heard, with 1 exception. Graduates schools strongly dislike W’s, but, just to make things clear, they don’t factor into your GPA as a F. If you just have a few doubles you don’t need to worry about it for either graduate or transfer.</p>

<p>^ says an epic failure</p>

<p>The flame war going on surprises me. I said something along the lines of “ew asians” a few weeks back and almost got perma banned, but you guys are just straight up insulting each other. Silly CC.</p>

<p>Just out of curiosity, how do you “almost” get perm banned? Seems like a kinda black or white thing…</p>

<p>@theduck- I think vintij got perma-banned for his “I should rape your post” comment. I just loved his rants, though! He would get category 5 butt-hurt over EVERYTHING. Seriously entertaining @ 2 am.</p>

<p>For the OP, look what you started! :stuck_out_tongue: and I don’t know what I would do in your shoes but I hope it all works out for you. I didn’t apply to Haas so I don’t know their crazy special rules.</p>

<p>i got a one week ban too for saying that the girls at berkeley are ugly. of course, some ugly girl on the berkeley forums reported me. </p>

<p>as for vintij, his original account is porbably banned bc he came back with a new username and i think that one got deleted or something.</p>

<p>Update: De Anza admissions didn’t let me drop because I don’t have cancer. It’s ok, I may still pull off an A if I ace the final. :|</p>

<p>I have 26 W’s. :(</p>

<p>^ your boned</p>

<p>^ what does that mean?</p>

<p>^ your screwed, but seriously if you actually have 26 W’s your not in good shape. especially if you want to do grad school. although, i guess that just depends on where you apply.</p>

<p>I don’t think your application is very strong overall if 1-2 W’s is what makes or breaks you.</p>
