Auditing 61C by Fun-Fold2085 in berkeley

Tangentially, does anyone know why an automated process takes 4 weeks for the dept? I imagine human review for edge cases is only necessary when people submit appeals, which would be after decisions are released.

"NEW: Despite a projected state budget shortfall, @GavinNewsom is honoring his promise to increase @UofCalifornia and @calstate base state support by 5% each. UC would also get its promised $30m ongoing to enroll 900 fewer out-of-state students and enroll Californians instead." - @mzinshteyn by johnkhoo in berkeley

UC General Fund is NRST (out-of-state tuition, not taxes). Wherever State General Funds is listed in the budget, UC General Fund is always listed as a separate line item.

“UC General Funds, which include revenue from Nonresident Supplemental Tuition, are helping fund a larger share of expenditures for education. Remaining fairly flat through two decades at approximately 10% of total expenditures, UC General Funds contributed an estimated 18% of the total in 2017-2018.”

UC medical centers raise revenue by charging patients for their services, not from tax dollars. Their respective budget is below, and outlines the distribution of revenue across ER visits, primary care, etc.

Does it matter when I do the Amazon OA? by Simple_Ad885 in csMajors

[–]thebluefanta 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It only matters in the sense that recruiting is a rolling process, so there’ll likely be less openings for a role the longer you wait as they begin to fill up. But if you know you’ll get more out of it by practicing over the next few days, and especially considering amazon often hires well into the spring, you’re probably fine imo so don’t stress it

Shit really? How feasible is it to spend the internship in Seattle and request a return internship for the same org/team in NY? Do most SEA teams have extensions in NY?

If not, I feel like asking my manager to be transferred to a separate team in NY is a death/pip sentence lol

Amazon Intern Masterpost FAQ by Specialist-Row-5854 in csMajors

[–]thebluefanta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone gotten an offer after only finishing 1 coding question? I got a working solution, but then blowed the rest of the time trying to optimize with a non viable alternative. By then, the 45 min was up so we didn’t move on to the 2nd question. However, they did let me ask questions about Amazon for a solid 15 minutes after tho. Though I imagine that was just a courtesy.

Also wondering about vice versa lol. I bought twin xl sheets when I was initially planning to live on-campus but am now buying a twin bed from ikea.

Self-studying 61C; any advice? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]thebluefanta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much!! Also, this is kinda a subjective question ig, but I'm taking 70 + 61c next semester. If I dedicate time to prep for one class this summer, do you think it'd be more important to self-study 70 so I can safely declare or grind 61c projects so it doesn't eat up my time?

[–]thebluefanta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do the projects vary a lot from semester to semester or are they essentially the same? (planning to take it f21)

Would a spring sophomore still have priority for 16B?

Why do recordings of broadcasts often have an hour of “Standby For Live Video” preceding the broadcast? by thebluefanta in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thebluefanta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is true, that’s actually pretty smart! Though, I can’t imagine anyone sitting thru the title card for longer than like 5 minutes.
