Neither do I, a lot of people don’t but I’ve heard people say to just put just about anything down to fill it up, like if it comes down to it - “babysitted junior year” or something
Can you put high school stuff on there?
can’t tell if sarcasm or
Haha not sarcasm just hearsay, I would ask a counselor at your school
Hey guys! I’m new to this post, but can any of you tell me my chances? I’m so unsure 
Major: Anthropology
GPA: 3.72-7.8
Major GPA: 4.0
IGETC: completed
EC: philosophy club, sociology club, social chair of law club, Honors program, speech & debate club
Workload: 40-55 hours per week with 2 jobs while taking 15+ units this year
I’m just finishing up honors credit and 2 major requirements this fall
Extra:
- first generation American & college student
- volunteered 15-20 hours a week with elderly
- upward trend (bad first year GPA, then doubled up my work load and course load with straight As second year)
I waited one more year so I could apply with a better GPA
I got really good ones, but they are just 2-3 activities…
@kitkatt611 I think you’ll get in.
There’s a church here in San Mateo which gives you volunteer hours… My friend paid the priest there $40 for 2500 volunteer hours, pro letter of rec, and credit for making the church a better place. Might have to do that if worst comes to worst lol…
@EECSProdigy that’s some shady stuff, I’d be careful about that because the admission people might catch on and that would look pretty bad
@goldencub shoot, you’re supposed to report everything?? wait, this won’t affect my admission right? i’ve been nothing but a 4.0 student in CC. will a few bad AP scores from when i didn’t care in high school really affect this? 
@EECSProdigy Then you would be committing fraud. Lets not even consider how disgustingly immoral that would be. Focus on your academics, don’t worry about filling up EC spaces with vacuous BS.
@themightybicycle You will be fine. They won’t hold some bad AP scores against you, especially if you have straight A’s in CC. What’s your major again?
@EECSProdigy just get through the semester, work hard, and don’t BS because they’ll see through that. If you’re as great as you think you are, you should get in on merit instead of dishonesty.
@EECSProdigy lol where did you go to high school?
mission san jose
@EECSProdigy ah nevermind
Where did you go? You’re at Berkeley city right?
@EECSProdigy yep. I went to a school in Oakland
Yo I’m Laney man… give it up for oakland
@EECSProdigy lol nah, not tech
anyway, bottom line, don’t put fake EC’s on your app. it’s not at all worth it.
okay… hopefully I get in…
