<p>oh, and my essays were pretty good, this is why: as you can tell, my stats arent at all that amazing, but i got into UCLA already, which to me means that my essays saved my butt in that application. i also got the Regents Scholarship, thanks to my essays too (regents only goes to the top 100 applicants)
but i really wanna go to UCBerkeley :'[
i got into USC already too, i know its really no comparison, but still. lol</p>

<p>Haha dudeee, chill. Just think about other stuff; I know you are DYING to know (trust me, killed me too), but enjoy your senior year while it lasts! A wonderful second semester of laziness…worry about the college stuff in a few days…=)</p>

<p>Regents scholarhip is offered to ~200 applicants (they say 100 Regents Scholars per year, but that’s only because UCLA has a ~50% yield rate)…</p>

<p>Not that it matters :)</p>

<p>Were you invited for UCB’s Regents Interview?</p>

<p>The stress is getting to me too. Second semester senior year = overrated…</p>
