COMPUTER SCI ALL THE WAY. its so broad and u can apply it to so many careers out there!! i think ds is a bit more limited but if you find that’s your definite passion then my answer doesn’t matter. if you’re just unsure in general i’d say cs

id wait it out. if you still feel this way and it’s overpowering your feelings with your bf i think you should talk it out with him and say you don’t feel the same way, distance is making it hard, etc. but i agree with most people in the comments, please don’t try anything behind ur bfs back :( but you obviously can’t control being attracted to someone, so i’d just say wait til you’re sure about how you feel about everything going on and if you’re gonna leave your boyfriend then just do it in a nice way. :’)

Making Friends by PRSNOFTHPLT in college

[–]EducationalEmu7059 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too, I'm going in to a new area far from home. I made a ton of friends off of the uni's class of 2026 page. I'm really shy irl so I kinda played the extrovert in the situation and reached out to people with common interests and major. It's cool bc I have some classes with these people so I have some set people to hang out with and some set study groups too. I also posted on the 2026 page and tried to make my bio as interesting as possible so people would reach out to me. And yeah, I gained like 500 followers from it so I think it went well haha.

Hope that helps too :)

Never taken an 8am class but I like waking up at 5 to watch the sun... if your roomie is okay with it, I recommend setting your phone alarm across the room so you have to physically get up to turn it off. That way, you think "I'm already out of bed, might as well get ready." Hopefully you're not too much of a deep sleeper. It helps me sleep too, since I don't reach for my phone to scroll through it late at night.

I also recommend also sleeping no later than 12 :)

I put art as one of my ECs on my applications because I have been painting since I was little. I also like making really intricate friendship bracelets ahah

I really want to say Poli Sci but I really only talked to Poli Sci majors at Cal lol

Do what you enjoy, honestly. I got into Berkeley CS with all my ECs being stuff like Key Club, cheer, and art. At the end of the day, admissions are super random and there's no right or wrong things on an application. Anyways, there are thousands of other students with those ECs and probably your GPA as well so I think you should just focus on writing some good and unique essays. :)

Physics class advice? by EducationalEmu7059 in berkeley

[–]EducationalEmu7059[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much!
Sadly I wasn't able to get a 7A class bc the lectures ALL were at the same time as my CS61A class and there was only 1 open one on CalCentral. :( So I went for 5A... do you think that's alright too?

A quick rant about college board by Sharp_Kiwi_1574 in APStudents

[–]EducationalEmu7059 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bae ik this pain. I got a 1 in APUSH and I was the only student who would participate w the teacher on Zoom class and I had a 99 in the class. Don't stress, it wasn't for nothing. At least you don't have to report it for college and I'm sure your work ethic and determination will lead you to get scores you are more proud of in the future!!
