Calc is my enemy xD so I definitely feel you on that one!
Anyone tagging to UCI?
I did for psychological science! @sadstemstudent wby?
@tinymango the thing for me is that since Iām in Northern California, I have never been to the campus. I know itās crazy to say itās my dream school considering I havenāt stepped foot on campus. Ive been to disneyland more times than I can count does that mean anything? Ha! Something about UCI just drew me in from all of the UCs esp the psychological science major. I was supposed to go this week because it was my spring break but the whole corona virus situation said nopeeee
@tinymango yah I tagged for Biomedical Engineering. Iām barely hanging on to a 3.48 GPA so Iāve been lowkey stressed out about my math and physics HAHAHA but as long as itās above a 3.4 we are chill xD
Hellloo I wanna be a part of this and have my stats!
Major: Psychological Science (tagged UCI)
GPA: 3.85
Major Prep GPA: 4.0
IGETC: Completed by Spring
Pre-Reqs: finished by winter
In the honors program, work in retail, and a part of an internship.
Applying to: UCI, UCLA, UCSB, and UCSD
That was me last semester. Thankfully I rose up to a 3.56 from my 3.47
@hoshizora at this point im just trying to maintain above a 3.4, trying to raise my GPA with Linear Algebra and Physics is kinda impossible xD
@sadstemstudent linear algebra is a risky classā¦ Good luck!
Also wanted to share my stats!
Major: Mechanical Engineering (tagged UCI)
GPA: 3.54
Major Prep: completed by Spring 2020
ECās: Physics and chem tutor, student mentor, 2 internships
Applied: UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCSD, UCD
So far, got into pomona and long beach but hoping to attend UC Irvine! Good luck everyone!
@tmhacts Aww! And hey thatās not crazy at all! I decided it was my #1 before I saw it. Also, itās great to hear someone else is from Northern California too!
And I was the same with the major! It seems so unique and cool.
And the corona is messing everything upā¦ I hope that when we get our acceptances (keeping good thoughts!!) we can at least get the cool events before the school year starts
I was finally gonna make my University debut dyeing my hair and everythingā¦ Kinda disappointed since school is probably going to start off online
@sadstemstudent youāve got this! I know with classes moving online due to the coronavirus it must be rough. But hey sending good vibes your way
@tinymango hey! I appreciate the support HAHAH. Iām currently on spring break right now so I donāt have to worry too much about my spring quarter classes xD but Iāve been sooo anxious about UCI because I feel like Iām missing something from the TAG requirement list although Iām pretty sure I finished everything HAHAH. Good luck to you too!
Iām gonna be honest, I think Iām going to have another mental breakdown if classes start online, I was so excited to go to college and be in a dorm with roommates and finally make friends and just be away from home and I honestly canāt handle another disappointment. Itās hard to say that I can feel my third hospital trip like a premonition. Praying that things go back to normal.
idk why i felt nervous to do this but here this goes:
Major: English (tagged UCI)
GPA: 3.61
IGETC: complete
Major Prep: 2/3 complete since I switched from Psych to English after my first year at CC, then only had one year to get as many English major preps done as possible
ECās: English tutor, French tutor, French Club President, studied French abroad in Paris for the Summer semester, in 11 Honor Societies, Starbucks barista
Applied: UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCSB, SDSU, Cal Poly SLO
So far Iāve been rejected from SDSU and accepted to Cal Poly SLO
Top choices: UCLA or UCI
Major: Drama, TAG, hoping to audition into the BFA if I attend
GPA: 3.86
Major Prep: completed by Spring 2020
ECās: worked fast food for a year + @ a movie theatre for two months before miss corona, ushered for a bunch of shows at our PAC, a cappella group, crying
Applied: UCLA, UCI, CSUN, CSULB, + a couple out of states
iām probably going to be the only person going for drama here but ah well, UCIās personally my favorite in-state option :^)
who else was here on the freshman thread 2 years ago? anyone having flashback to the absolute f*cking panic attacks? cause I AM!
Not sure if anyone can answer this, but I have a question regarding TAG. From what I know, are we suppose to get a tag approval before a tag decision? I called UCI admissions a while back regarding this and they said along the lines of tag approval will come out a month before actual tag admissions as well as regular transfer applicants admissions. I checked through TAP and it still says that UCI has received your tag but nothing that indicates an approval of TAG itself. anyone have an idea?
@brandonrt2000 Literally me too!
