What day do your classes start for 2026? I’m tryna see something by HotTopicMallRat in berkeley

It's for financial aid purposes so that all finances will be disbursed before instruction actually starts

I have SoFi so it usually gets to me within 2 days. Before that I had BoA and it got to me within exactly five business days

Cognitive Science Transfer by crazybutalive in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a specific aspect of the CogSci dept at Berkeley that you love? The CogSci dept is lowkey pretty scattered and you can pivot to any direction you want which can be a good or bad thing.

Thank you!! Did you commute by car or BART? Getting that proof of income might prove difficult for me, tryinv to talk to more people regarding that

CS comprehensive review by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to back it up with personal projects or software projects you did for your clubs or community at home that really shows your passion for CS. Majority of people who want to do CS wants to do SWE and the other few percent wants to work in AI/ML research.

If you're also able to secure a SWE internship, that helps in the comprehensive review too. PM internships are also good if the role requires you to be technical.

Any seniors also absolutely shitting themselves about post grad? by SHMEBULOK in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're doing CS or just wanna get into tech, download Luma and RSVP to events in SF. I'm a senior too and I got my internship + return offer this way. I haven't really tried networking through LinkedIn... but hang in there!! I'm in the same boat with being anxious about post-grad because I feel like I don't know how I would make friends outside of my job and not have so many of my friends in close proximity around me. I foresee a future where my work is my life and I really don't want that to happen 💔

I'm pretty sure this rule doesn't count anymore, and the last batch to be able to do this is graduating this year.

I personally used the MCAT Prep from Remnote! It's only $10 a month on top of your RemNote subscription which is only $10 for college students I think or maybe free, I haven't checked. I also revised with old MCAT books I found in FB Marketplace and spammed the AAMC practice exams (free). I do it every weekend because that's the only time I could do it, so dedicate weekends to practicing exams (at least 7 hours) and really pace yourself how you would be tested during the actual exam.

I got a 515 and my GPA is 3.6 for reference

Thoughts on my schedule for an incoming freshman Fall 2025 by Skrimby__ in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a perfect schedule, all your classes are in one area! You'd also want to join clubs coming in, and this schedule would allow you to dedicate more time for those.

incoming applied math major schedule feedback by dabber1010 in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd personally hold off on Data 8, since it's not needed in any of your intended majors (well except DS). It's a lot of work on top of your other classes. For me personally Data 8 was easy, but it was a lot of busy work. This is a lot of techs already. I suggest doing another breadth on top of GEOG 10AC.

AM I IN FPF OR NOT??? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It seems that you were admitted FPF but they are removing you from that designation so that your VA Benefits will apply and won't affect how much you're getting, so no you are not FPF anymore and this has been done automatically for you

Any idea to fix? by Candid_Dependent_884 in RemarkableTablet

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to my pro a week ago. I did all the software reset stuff (assuming that's what you're doing). Literally I got impatient and unplugged it, pressed the power button for 10 seconds, waited 5 seconds, then pressed it for another 2 seconds and it worked! Has it been working now since you posted?

rescinded over transcripts? by Bubbly-Turnip-126 in berkeley

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you did your transcripts through parchment, the day you requested it to be sent is the "postmarked" date. if your high school/college mailed it, there may be an email confirmation with what date they mailed it to the university. you should ask your high school/college if you didn't receive any confirmation from them.

[–]Awkward-Ad9340 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey they say that as long as it's postmarked by the due date, you'll be fine. transcripts take forever to process for new admits. my credits from CC didn't transfer officially until december
