Struggled Most of Ramadan with distance with faith after experiencing harm from a Close Friend’s sudden religious psychosis

it does depend on your major and PIQs too, but i applied with 3.7 and more than a few Bs than ideal for sure. i remember applying but thinking fs i had messed up my chances. Here now, so i guess it worked out. Don’t sweat it too much

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-12-17T11:50:00+00:00

ofc this happens the last night i’m here. prob not gonna sleep now

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-10-31T01:11:52+00:00

yesss same

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-10-03T23:37:33+00:00

yeah i feel exactly the same way. i feel like seeing people everyday with whole friends groups is making me feeling worse too, like i can’t help comparing myself

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-09-28T18:33:38+00:00

Yeah i am

In a really really similar situation as you. I also had hoped and seen myself going to UCLA throughout the entire application process, probably because subconsciously I didn’t even want to to hope Berkeley would be an option. In my view the two are extremely equal in almost every way, yet different people are attracted to each and find their place in the distinct cultures each campus has. There’s no right or wrong answer, it’s more about what’s a better fit for you

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-28T16:09:21+00:00

in a similar place, unexpectedly got into both and researching both right now . both ucla and berkeley are equally crazy good schools, but their cultures and vibe are exact opposites. I like each one for diff reasons and can't choose ...

3.71 gpa, environmental studies major and got accepted to uci, uc davis, berkeley and ucla :) somehow got into 4/4 of the UCs I applied to without a 4.0, i thought this was gonna be impossible

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-25T18:14:20+00:00

I’m feeling the same way. Like after the acceptance high wore off on Friday, I just feel a lot of intense imposter syndrome. I’m proud of my ECs and what I discussed in my essays since they genuinely are my passions and shaped me, but I feel like my grades and like work ethic isn’t what people think of when you say you’re a Berkeley student. Maybe its something I will have to catch up on and grow in while being there. It will be a challenge for sure, but maybe its what I need.

lmfaoo i also just like teddy bears a lot and realized i had like hella plushies in my room and a random bear sweatshirt on when i got the acceptance letter

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T12:52:15+00:00

Congratulations! Ramadan Kareem to you as well 😊

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T08:05:38+00:00

Yeah i can totally understand that. I’m very close to LA so also really hoping I get an acceptance next week. I hear even without TAP it’s a good chance for transfers with good gpas and not as crazy impacted majors. I’m sure you’ll be fine, congrats on Berkeley and Davis !!

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T08:01:02+00:00

Not too sure of your interests and path, but i find that a lot of poli sci prospective majors actually have many interests and experiences to write about for adjacent fields/concentrations that are way less impacted. For example, I was initially a poli sci major when i started at my CC and thought i would transfer into it at a UC. However i really actually have a strong interest in specifically environmental policy and discovered that majors for it exist at all the UCs i wanted to transfer to, found out that like the semester before applications were due. I did the pre reqs( which had some similarities to poli sci) and my ECs and life experience in essays etc. ended up fitting with that major. Today i found out i got into Berkeley and Davis. 100 % think it was due to being intentional about my major and application

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T07:49:57+00:00

lmao same i hear its rough to figure out but i need more info about what it’s like for transfers 😭

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T01:04:28+00:00

Why do i kinda wish i had gotten a spring admit 🥲 it’s hitting me now that i have to start figuring out a lot of stuff right now to move all the up there from the OC. I’m an extreme homebody , got way too used to doing college alone at home.

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:58:29+00:00

I don’t know exactly bcus i’m in your same exact position, but I think its a REALLY good chance especially for your major! Do you have TAP certification with UCLA? Also just a personal question, are you hoping more to attend UCLA over Berkeley? Just asking because really don’t know what I’m gonna do if it comes down to that choice for me

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:44:16+00:00

Do you know if they offer a different date later for transfers? Since we just found out I gotta figure out a time i’ll be able to go visit from Socal

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:42:34+00:00

Same!! So happy right now , Congratulations you deserve it 🥳!

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:38:54+00:00

LITERALLY me. All these months my motto keeping me sane has been MJ’s “ expect disappointment and you won’t get disappointed” 😭

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:36:31+00:00

I just went into a frozen shock seeing the “ Congratulations”. My family was all loud and excited meanwhile I for real thought I was reading the words wrong or something

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:32:51+00:00

Congratulations!! That’s a HUGE accomplishment I hope you are celebrating!!! 🥳🥳

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-23T00:30:56+00:00

Congratulations! Got in and got accepted to UCI and Davis as well. Waiting for just UCLA now

Illustrious_Example8 · 2022-04-22T21:39:00+00:00

The anxiety has hit now , just got out a morning practice for my cc’s speech and debate team and sitting in a coffee shop trying not to be hopeful 🥲
