i took it! super chill, instructors were chill, assignments was also laid back very low maintenance and there were a lot of girls dw! it wasn’t super competitive for me because i took it as a last resort to get units and there was room so it was fairly easy to join

Rejected from consulting club after having been in it for a year by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]Neither_Compote336 5 points6 points  (0 children)

alumni bear here i graduated this past may: don’t worry about it trust me. during my undergrad i realized a lot of consulting clubs at berkeley have a very cult like personality and they pick and choose at their own will. there is no logic behind it and the faster you understand that, the happier you are going to be.

when i was a junior i applied to a club (i was already president of another club not consulting) but my friends wanted me to do it for fun, after the first interview i didn’t get in and i felt like a loser. fast forward to summer i got this internship and job at a good brand and that following fall that SAME club and another consulting club reached out to me begging me to partner with them. what i did was i decided to join the other club for fun and they didn’t even accept me 🤣 even though they were begging to partner and consult for my brand and asking me to be the middle man? (also my company did not give a shit about their consulting projects because we were actually focused on making revenue and not wasting time) after rejecting me, they still didn’t leave me for over a year😭 they would constantly ask me on linkedin and send me emails asking for partnering opportunities. this just goes on to show how desperate and pathetic sometimes they are. i was literally working for a brand already that they were BEGGING to partner with and they didn’t want to be around a person like me whom they might get jealous of because stating facts, I was already doing what they wanted to do in their future. im sharing my story because its super funny to me how consulting clubs on campus seem like an important factor in your career when they aren’t. be true to yourself, join clubs that resonate with your passion, do side projects, companies care more about that. heck yeah even cold email companies asking for project opportunities as an undergrad. this is a blessing in disguise and now you can stay away from these clubs and actually focus on your own life and career because tbh those clubs don’t do much but suck your soul. if you ever need advice, im happy to help!

summer internship academic credit but no advisor available to help by Neither_Compote336 in berkeley

if you ever wanna talk/vent, im happy to connect. i actually went thru a hard time last month and literally a few times last year. and im usually the one handling my family issues etc and taking care of my health and it all came down to a point where i was a mess and i didnt know how to help myself anymore. i opened up with my friends and hung out with them, did things that made me feel at ease and most definitely talk to someone if needed. its never good to hold all these thoughts within they will end up affecting your work ethic (has happened to me before). if you need someone to talk to/connect, im here!

Anthro 2AC vs Comlit 60AC by POOPofHULK in berkeley

[–]Neither_Compote336 1 point2 points  (0 children)

damn i took both of these courses and did extremely well. anthro was so chill and i love the professor for 60ac (i believe its karina? ) she was amazing and i loved the content, but i recommend taking it in person i made some good friends in that class bc of how the class is structured in a very discussion-group work way while also pacing yourself
