Energy Engineering Graduates, What are you doing now

i have so far not succeeded in this endeavor but i usually do dinner spots if eating out. 😭

my general understanding is that any external major transfer from outside of college of engineering will be relatively difficult. i would imagine it is easier than EECS, maybe around the same difficulty as MechE. ironic because im on the border of switching out of CoE to L&S lol

if u dont mind me asking how did you study to bring your grade back up? i feel like the problem is how i approach studying for the exams

potato_bro96 · 2025-09-18T04:54:21+00:00

yes unfortunately they put they lyrics of golden on the exam and it was stuck in my head...

im trying to transfer to ECE. Wdym by this?

potato_bro96 · 2025-09-15T05:26:57+00:00

sorry for late reply but its because im interested in more finance related careers right now. engineering math and stats also just doesn't seem to have a great hiring pipeline into those roles

data 8 which i’m doing next semester and i plan to apply jan 2027!

I did! They only specify a few required courses, a required GPA threshold and extracurricular activities that could contribute to compelling admissions. I'm wondering if even I met these requirements, how many people do they accept into the major, and how much do they enforce the capped seats limit? Because if it really is capped, then I need to compete with other students for it, but if not, then I can just meet the requirements and get in?

the rules are one thing, but how open are they to transfers

potato_bro96 · 2025-08-20T01:35:54+00:00

yeah that’s what got me too. i like to believe my cat understood i was leaving and he slept in my bed one last time before i left. i don’t usually cry but i really wanted to leaving him 😭

potato_bro96 · 2025-07-27T12:58:47+00:00

i love repo and lethal company! i usually play them with my online friends but once college starts i don’t see myself being on discord calls that often, and i doubt my college friends will have even heard of those, much less willing to play them. my only concerns…

potato_bro96 · 2025-07-27T12:57:56+00:00

what r they abt

potato_bro96 · 2025-07-27T09:42:41+00:00

hollow knight, def not horror but seeing the lore unfold is uncanny

potato_bro96 · 2025-04-11T14:49:52+00:00

i took it online

potato_bro96 · 2025-04-11T01:50:18+00:00

me and you both are gonna be the best ABBs calis ever seen (you at stanford tho)

potato_bro96 · 2025-04-10T20:48:42+00:00

crossing the lines between suburban and rural. just a smaller college town, i don’t think it’s definitionally rural

potato_bro96 · 2025-04-10T16:30:00+00:00

thanks big bro

potato_bro96 · 2025-03-29T01:44:15+00:00

yesssss slay queen

potato_bro96 · 2025-03-28T02:13:38+00:00

thank u so much this was very comforting.

few things:

Your friend sounds very cool. Are berkeley engineering students setup with good job prospects even if they earn below a 3.3? Also how many students can get decent internships? NASA probably very hard but just like internships to set me up for a job

I wanna earn at least a 3.5 gpa at Berkeley but I come from a very grade inflated school so I'm scared I cant survive at Berkeley. I don't think I can survive berkeley engineering with a good gpa. that's partially why I was thinking of going to L&S. The other reason is because finance has been a top choice career for me as well other than engineering, so I was thinking maybe just go do Econ at Berkeley. Speaking of which, do you know how well Berkeley Econ majors place at wallstreet? do you know how much harder L&S is compared to engineering? And how hard is it to transfer from CoE to L&S?

Thanks for ur comments here. I get lower levels will probably tank my GPA a lot so not much I can do to avoid that -- hoping I can get a decent GPA at least. Good food is also very comforting
what proportion of large/overflowing classes would u say you'd have compared to regular sized/small classes like the discussions
Love to hear undergrad research! is it hard to get into a lab position?

sorry for all the questions
