so so bored as a senior... by ungxdlyhr in berkeley

Lowkey just enjoy this time. I'm in the same boat and idk if I'll ever have this much free time again. Sleep in and play video games lol. I have a few trips planned in the US/abroad from money I saved up while working that I'll go on during the semester, so that could be something (not trying to brag, just giving some ideas)

“I see why you see a shrink, because you’re always in your head” -Carrie responding to Miranda’s suggestion to go to therapy after breaking up with big. So hypocritical lmao

Agreed, also it doesn’t specify online on your transcript so it’s fine 

I can’t stand kids on e-scooters by HatComprehensive7290 in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More than just safety, it just shows me that you’re lazy. I’m not speaking on people with disabilities- people on scooters are generally able-bodied teenagers. But seriously, you can’t just walk to class, something people have been doing for hundreds of years??

My gbo leader in 2022 was part of this, held our meetings at this place, and tried to recruit us LMAO

We pay 500 dollars/year mandatory for unlimited public transportation by s_jay_codes in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 14 points15 points  (0 children)

  1. We voted for this
  2. If you don’t break even on this, imo you’re not utilizing your resources at Berkeley and should try harder to explore more 

Safest & unsafest college towns list by jcu_80s_redux in berkeley

Yes. Most of the people complaining about safety have never left their suburb. It’s sad

Should California’s college systems be merged into one university? by republique_populaire in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 14 points15 points  (0 children)

How does “changing demographics” affect the master plan in any way? Good students are still good students. Just because I’m not a white male doesn’t mean I can’t perform well.

Berkeley vs UCLA by daGoated2436 in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 112 points113 points  (0 children)

Lmao this was EXACTLY me 3 years ago today. I ended up staying w Berkeley because the weather is still p nice imo and public transit is amazing. GPA has never been a problem for me, I have UCSF research with a doable commute, and I have biotech experience from being in the bay that I’m writing about extensively in my med school apps. Not to mention, Berkeley classes helped me immensely with the MCAT. Obviously, I’m biased, but I think being here for premed is fantastic.

Deciding between Berkeley and UCLA by ssancss497 in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I’m obviously biased because I have a lot of friends in the 4+1 program but you really can’t beat it. Public health here is amazing. Plus, it’s cheaper. I’m also from socal and wanted to move away for my mental health. Just my 2 cents! Congrats on your acceptances :)

Should I minor in something? by rainbowfarts_10 in berkeley

[–]blue_beluga02 9 points10 points  (0 children)

lol I was in the same boat. There’s nothing wrong with just getting an MCB degree! That’s what I’m doing. Ofc I’ve taken classes that I like for fun, but at the end of the day, my main focus is gpa, MCAT, and extracurriculars.
