People would keep saying “it’s the past, it’s too late” @confusedcontent
No apology needed, I should’ve just said what my intention was in those threads. What are my chances though @confusedcontent
anyone else
It really just depends on what you can afford. Are you willing to pay full price? Are you in state or out of state?
I’m in state @lhd512
Well then you can more than likely get into these schools.
Anyone else have chances? Btw, if I take less classes junior year, my UC GPA will increase due to the capped system, but my cumulative would decrease.
I though about that last year and my counselor said take more classes so I did and my stats went down (UC GPA) But what schools are safeties for me or low matches, that are reasonably good considering a suspension of such child immaturity
YOULL GET IN EVERYWHERE! GO YOU!!!
im going to be short and sweet
UCSB - automatic acceptance
UCLA - almost automatic acceptance
suspension 2 days does not sound toooo bad, but if it were actually serious (which i doubt since you threw yogurt at someone wtf?) thenn maybe like 70% accpetance
you are all match. Maybe not for Berkeley but good chance.
chance me back?

@theofrelord Colleges will see bullying, but I will explain the yogurt thing, feeling very sorry, and how my family life changed, having to become more independent and given a lot of chores with phone restrictions, and how this grew my discipline as a person. I am good friends with the kid anyways, so it would just be an act of maturity. Would they even consider reading what my take was on the bullying(even since it was yogurt)
ok i think your founding of an anti bullying club and your explanation will definitely make it seem like a growth of immaturity to maturity so i think colleges might even appreciate your change
@gumbymom can you chance me and ALSO tell me which ones are safeties/low match?(if possible, thanks) I’ve seemed to trust your judgments a lot
I’m sorry but I don’t get it.
It doesn’t matter that it was yogurt. You can’t really justify it to the colleges, which is what it sounds like you want to do. How will you or can you explain it?
I have personal experience in this. My sister was the recipient of a soda can that was “accidentally” thrown at her head. She had to go to the ER and was in significant pain and had to be monitored constantly to check if she would develop brain damage. Her injury was more severe than what you caused, but there was really no reason for any person to throw anything at another person. These girls were in elementary school! What’s your excuse? You were in high school? No amount of apologies could rectify what that girl did to my sister. Sister “forgave” the girl, but we didn’t. My sister had to get counseling because she developed a life-long fear of sudden movements. She has an awful scar and memory of hospitalizations.
Definitely not on your part because this sounds so callous and doesn’t sound like you are remorseful. That girl may act like it doesn’t bother her, but you can bet her parents are furious towards you, as mine were towards the other girl. Parents care about their kids that way.
I think your posting as a “sophomore”, and your yogurt incident demonstrates a truly nefarious personality. Creating an anti-bullying club is ineffective if the leader doesn’t really have remorse or belief in it, but is using it to try to justify her violent tendencies. Were you even required to seek counseling? This is just sad on so many levels.
@persia5 i think you miscalculated your UC GPA
@aunt bea Jesus christ he threw yogurt at another kid. Kids at my school do stuff like that all the time. Its not like he’s a psychopathic bully bent on destroying the lives of all his peers. I doubt colleges will care at all. Seriously, its not a big deal at all… chill…
She was suspended.
If it’s not a big deal, then she shouldn’t have a problem, but colleges do care.
You have a very good chance at all the schools, but UCLA/UCB can always be tough to determine.
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Solid Match
USC/UCLA/UCB: Match
I think it will come down to your EC’s and essays if you are accepted/waitlisted/rejected at UCB.
Good Luck.
All are “low match” to “match” range, but I agree with Gumbymom that your essay will determine your result at UCB. Good luck.
