My addresses changed from 2 to 4 and back to 2 today. Pretty nervous right now.
@liaaa your GPA and SAT scores are pretty low for Berkeley, but thatās not to say you have no chance.
@mayobanana I donāt think that is an indication of whether or not you got in. Last year, there was little correlation.
Someone, please provide an opinion on my stats.
International Applicant
SAT 1: 1500, R/W - 700, Math - 800, 19 Essay
SAT Subject: Math 2 - 770, Physics - 800
I applied for CS at UCSD, UCLA, and Berkeley. I got in as undeclared at UCSD and was waitlisted at UCLA. Do I have any chance at Berkeley for EECS?
Hi lia, uh I got into Berkeley with regents and my stats were
W GPA: 4.65
Class rank: 7
ACT (pretty low lol): 29
Out of State
Iām guessing my essays were good bc my act was pretty low for the school
My ECās included: Community service in Thailand
Started a club that raised menstrual products for women in homeless shelters and abroad and Girls State (I did more but I think these really were stand out factors)
Anythingās possible! When I told ppl my test scores they ruled out Berkeley for me but I ended up getting in
To those looking to evaluate their statistics, the latest common data set available for Berkeley shows that for fall 2017 enrolled freshmen:
SAT English: 25th percentile 650, 75th percentile 750; 82% 600+
SAT Math: 25th percentile 650, 75th percentile 780; 80% 600+
High school GPA (I assume this is the UC GPA): 85% 3.75+ and 11.5% 3.5-3.74
@MrMartador Looks great stats wise! (higher end for UCB IMO) Other UCās decision doesnt affect this one.
THe problem is that theres no telling given UCBās competitiveness, especially for the EECS major pool.
@gobears444 I tried the CalCentral just today and it directed me to use MAP login and then it said āUnrecognized Loginā . Rejection?? I do, however, have the 4 addressesā¦it keeps going from 2 to 4 to 2 to 4 and on and on
@TheGuy1
Thank you for your response. Iām keeping my fingers crossed.
Iāve never logged into my portal and seen 4 addresses. Should I not get my hopes up? Just got waitlisted at UCLA last night.
What are these 4 addresses about? Iām lost.
@Wintdurr I think the addresses mean less but try logging into CalCentral and tell me what it says. I got unrecognized login
Dude.
Keep in mind all evals arent done yet, and they only activate that for admits after the official date. THereās no telling rn with the tactic youāre tryinā
By HS GPA, they mean HS GPA, not UC GPA, otherwise its specified. Keep in mind the stats are skewed for different schools in UCB, not subject to disclosure, but easily subject to prediction (For example, much higher stats for EECS
Is the hs gpa the weighted gpa
Are you sure about that? My understanding (and I could be wrong) is that the UCs only post UC GPAs unless otherwise specified. In the case of UCB, their weighted GPA would be the uncapped weighted UC GPA.
for the first time EVER my address changed to 4 addresses. It has never been 4 before. God this entire process is so stressful.
sameā¦ iām back to four addresses
In all honestly I donāt think this address things means shizz but if there is proof from the previous years that it does correlate with an acceptance then I guess I am forced to believe it.
@ProfessorPlum168 Thank you and that makes sense. She is going for the biology/public health area so I can see what you are saying. There is no doubt that there are sooooo many factors to a college admitting one student over the other. I only have to go through this cycle once but I have learned so much and feel for the kids that didnāt get into their #1 choice schools and what they are going through.
No @liaaa
