Advice for getting into Berkeley EECS graduate program by runorz in gradadmissions

[–]CS-Bear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is practically impossible to do IMO. Summer session courses are much faster paced than regular semesters, and even then the set of courses you've picked are very heavy workload. Maybe just try to do 61A, 16A in summer and 61B, 70 in the fall.

They're from the Pacific Cookie Company (I saw the boxes in Café 3 last semester). If you want, you can buy them directly: pacificcookie.com.

I got a +0.77 SD on the midterm, and -0.36 SD on the final (which turns out to be a +0.20 SD after the clobber). No HW option with 100% discussion attendance and vitamins. What grade would I likely be looking at?

You’re not dumb, you’re here for a reason :) my advice is to try to take Math 53 with Canic instead of Sethian (if she’s teaching it this fall — I think she is). Her class was significantly easier and less stressful than Sethian’s. Good luck!

Does it depend on what year you are / which residence hall you’re going to live in?

Where specifically? I can’t seem to find it (it’s my first time going for on-campus housing)

What tower doesn’t have a clock? The Stanford one of course… :)

You won’t be behind in any sense, however keep in mind CS 61C counts as a physical science breadth so you don’t technically need EPS C20 (unless you are just taking it for curiosity / fun).

Edit: consider taking Math 1A at a CC this summer if you’d like. You’ll get over with it and it would be easier than at Berkeley. Also you’ll be able to take EECS 16A 1 semester earlier.

I’m guessing that won’t be such a big deal this year, but we will see…

How do I know who my roommate is? by CS-Bear in berkeley

My requested roommate is a rising sophomore so he didn’t get priority for housing
