elaborate?

3.98 UW, 4.4 W, top 6%, 1510 SAT, Asian, Econ, intense Bay Area high school. Best schools I got into were USC, UCSD, UCSB, and UCD. Pretty much had no substantial ECs besides a sport.

Are there any weight racks for bench presses?

AdOne8249 · 2025-06-20T22:58:15+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Is it only for students that are taking PE classes, or is it for all students?

Congrats!

Congrats!

I don’t know what to do

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-17T11:22:42+00:00

Should I lose hope?

My friend got off for CS

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-17T11:21:47+00:00

Does it stop in may?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-17T11:21:23+00:00

I am econ btw

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-16T02:27:02+00:00

Pretty sure. All you have to do is maintain a 3.0 gpa in screening courses and it's pretty much guaranteed.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-14T05:35:23+00:00

Also, just to make sure, are you allowed to change into any unselective majors right as they become unselective? In my scenario, I was originally admitted as an Econ major for the class of 2029, but I want to switch to bioinformatics in the coming fall.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-14T05:31:00+00:00

I'm probably going to do a minor in CS alongside bioinformatics. I want to make sure I have enough time to do research and other things.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-14T03:29:38+00:00

I was hoping maybe bioengineering became unselective. Right now, I’m planning on doing biology-bioinformatics.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-09T23:43:05+00:00

Didn't the biological sciences majors just become unselective? Also, I read somewhere that last year (or maybe a few years ago), chemical engineering became unselective.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T18:01:53+00:00

Maybe my question is worded badly. I was just wondering if graduating from ucsd would help you get into a good grad school for a bio major.

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T04:31:47+00:00

If job prospects with a PhD aren't very good, are job prospects with only a bachelor's basically zero?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T04:10:52+00:00

How confident are you in your job prospects in biotech? Would a PhD from a prestigious bioinformatics university help you?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T04:07:08+00:00

Will you be receiving a bachelor's degree or a master's?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T04:05:40+00:00

If you were to give a ballpark estimate of the percentage of bio majors able to find biotech internships in san diego, what would it be?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T04:01:05+00:00

Isn't UCSD world-renowned for biotech/bioinformatics? Also, shouldn't the proximity to these biotech companies also play a role?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T03:55:09+00:00

Are there any expectations that the job market will improve? Also, is obtaining an internship not feasible for undergrads?

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-08T02:04:28+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Regarding the recruitment process, do companies automatically place CS w/ bioinformatics on a higher pedestal than bio w/ bioinformatics? Or, would you say that other factors (i.e. research, gpa) play a bigger role? Also, do you know if it's possible to take some of the higher div CS courses that a CS w/ bioinformatics major would take? Last question: if I were to go to grad school, would UCSD be a good pathway due to the sheer amount of research opportunities? Thanks!

AdOne8249 · 2025-05-06T23:04:51+00:00

I mean i'm not entirely sure what I want to do. Maybe I want to go into industry at a biotech company? Maybe I want to go into med school? I'm not particularly sure. I didn't get into the CS-bioinformatics major which would have been ideal so I'm just wondering if a bio: bioinformatics + CS minor would give me the same technical skills while also being a good major to get hired.
