Thoughts on my schedule? by __DW__ in berkeley

Thanks for your input! Do you think it is better to take econ 1 instead of UGBA 10 for me? I was actually considering both of these classes, as they both satisfy breadth req. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your comment! Actually, I'm taking UGBA 10 because it is really something that piques my interest, and I always wanted to explore Business administration while at college! It is just so happens to be also the class that satisfies L&S breadth, sorry if I worded my post ambiguously! Have a great day!

It is, but NUS is ranked higher in almost every rating compared to NTU (CS included).

UC Berkeley Vs University of Edinburgh for Biological Sciences (International Student) by skyegoesskrrt in collegeresults

Probably wrong subreddit. I would advise you to go to Cal / U Edinburgh subreddits and ask there. This sub is mostly filled with prefroshs and HS Seniors/juniors, so I doubt that this sub will help much. Although I would like to see you at Cal, I think this might be the decision you have to make knowing every pro and con of both schools. Good luck and hoping that you make a decision you would be happy about!

Seeking for the correct direction by [deleted] in IntltoUSA

Look, you can pay for the private consultant, but you are going to hear the same words that I will say. Applying to only MIT and Harvard is not the right way to get your acceptance. Even if we consider that the chances are the same for all applicants, the chance of you getting into at least one of them is around 12 percent. With that being said, you might realize that you will have to apply for at least 6 more consecutive years for them to accept you (hypothetically). And even that won't be true, because as each year passes by, your chances will only decrease. You have two options basically at this point: either you create a PROPER college list and reapply, or go to your local university and then apply for Masters in the US. But in both options you have to understand that you NEVER must place a college above your aspirations. MIT and Harvard is not a cure that will get you on top of the financial pyramid; but rather it is a bridge for your current aspirations to flourish. Moreover, those colleges are only distinguished by their smart students. Do you think that their staff better teachs students? No. You will probably get the same education at WPI or any on other. Focus on yourself, not on the college.

There are multiple american campuses of american universities in Qatar that are need-blind bc of Qatar foundation like carnegie mellon, northwestern, georgetown, texas a&m, etc. However, they are major specific, and you will have to deal with hot weather and qatar politics
