<p>Thanks for the advice. I calculated it and if I can pull a B+ in this writing class -- I got a B and an A- on the first two papers-- I can hit 3.803. HOLLA!</p>
<p>do we ever send in transcripts?</p>
<p>my counselor told me that i only need to send in my transcripts after the schools accept me. In between that time it's all self-report grades.</p>
<p>I wonder if they'll extend the deadline like they did the past few years.</p>
<p>server isn't down, so prob. not</p>
<p>Time's UP EVERYONE!!!</p>
<p>Whew, finished my essays at 11:55. Submitted right on time or maybe even at 12:00. I think I should've qualified for the fee waiver but it was 11:59 as I was frantically clicking 'next' and typing in my credit card information, or I probably did something wrong. Or maybe I just didn't qualify. Oh well.</p>
<p>LMAO!!</p>
<p>That's so crazy hw323!
how about if the server down?
U wouldn't make it.</p>
<p>Anyways, good luck with ur application. Hopefully, we all can get in.
which college do u apply to?</p>
<p>I apply to Cal.
Hopefully, I can get it.</p>
<p>Did anyone else get e-mails and phone calls from the University of California encouraging to submit the application?</p>
<p>whew apps are done. good luck everybody! i hope you all end up at your dream schools.
should we start postin our stats?</p>
<p>what for lol :D</p>
<p>i looked at all the average unit completion for the admitted at ucla and saw that they are around 90 and 100. does that mean that if u have minimum unit completion (60), ur chances are low?
i meet the bare minimum of 60 units because i am transferring in only one year. they should consider this.</p>
<p>i heard that too much units can prevent u from graduating in uc's. is this true?</p>
<p>i refuse to accept the fact that personal essays have no play in ur admission to ucla or berkeley. i wrote essays that will utterly blow their minds. how can they not react emotionally when i discuss my divine experience with learning about Alexander the Great?</p>
<p>will uc's be less impressed with a 4.0 from one semestre? i'm transferring in one year, u see.</p>
<p>sauron, I think thats cuz they r counting it as uc units, so if you do their conversion thing then you will be at those units.</p>
<p>UCLA uses quarter system.
The 60 minimum unit requirement applies to Semester System schools.
For CCCs that use quarter systems, they must complete 90 units.</p>
<p>Conversion from Semester units to Quarter Units:</p>
<p>Semester Unit x1.5 = Quarter Unit</p>
<p>ex.
60 Semester Unit x1.5 = 90 Quarter Units.</p>
<p>mehhh 2 more weeks till break</p>
<p>"react emotionally when i discuss my divine experience with learning about Alexander the Great?" </p>
<p>i'm not sure if that's sarcasm...but if it's not, in all seriousness, adcom's have seen almost everything. It takes alot to get them..."emotional"...</p>
<p>no offense sauronvaldemont but I had the same reaction to your post as johnnzen......</p>
<p>But yes, just like yourself, I wrote personal statements that were very personal and emotionally charged.</p>
<p>*Greatest Misconception of College Applicants #1: *</p>
<p>The best kind of essay is the one that's emotionally touching/moving.</p>
<p>i can't believe i failed to notice that my school was in semestre system and the uc's in quarter system. u guys are pretty knowledgable in these things.</p>
<p>actually, my essays were just clever. it was just TO THE POINT. it seems to say "i am a genius and am a person not to be messed with or fooled with triflings; so consider my geniusness and coolnesss seriously"</p>
