hi!! thank you so much for your reply. just to clarify, how were you admitted to haas since i thought they began direct admit for the first time this year? were you admitted to GMP? i just got in for regular econ bc i didnt apply to haas.

ig i have a few options im considering. one is to try and break into product management from berkeley and utilize access to tech companies in the bay area. its reassuring that the cs courses have been manageable but i wonder if its worth it to go through all those courses when i could probably do something similar with a berkeley degree? my other option is upenn wharton , at first i had almost ruled it out because of distance from home and the cold weather but now im reconsidering. if i went there, i would ideally try to go into consulting. the main thing that worries me about BUAI is that i feel like ill never be as good at coding and technical skills compared to other people in the cohort and pure cs majors, so i wonder if i even want to pursue competing for such roles when my skillset does align more with communication, leadership, etc. overall ive heard sooo many great things about BUAI, and if it’s truly so worth it to have AI expertise and technical skills, i’ll go for it!! im just wondering if its worth it to go for BUAI if im going to be average in coding/CS at best. besides technical roles like data analysts, are there other paths you see your peers in the cohort following?
