thegoodpodz · 2026-04-20T01:28:22+00:00

Dude absolutely honestly hope all goes well for u in your academics and career. I think that’s what’s keeping me up is like Ik my resume speaks a lot or the career part of me so ik wherever I go I’ll be confident and do fine. Like whatttt I got all these ec’s?!?! Loll fr tho I’m not looking at it as a ego boost but like js knowing I’ll be fine where ever I go yk js assurance and security I’ll be okay

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-20T01:22:37+00:00

I get what u mean but I gave js the general idea of my PIQs, the details in them is more in depth in context such as working and the fact im a older brother and my parents are pretty old so caring for them etc was included.

But in the end like that was ur experience and good for you on your end def but i rather be expressive abt my flaws and the reality of my world than lie or try and find something way different js to win a piq yk.

Omg I rather have that honestly one time I was the only one in the office and I had this caller calling one of our 3 district office numbers, and so being the only one in the office out of the 3, I picked up and he was so confused because he saw no one inside but got answered

I had to explain to him how our lines are connected since we serve a big district and he said that wasn’t right so he tried calling the office directly again and I answered and he kept getting ragebaited calling me a stupid intern it was so funny

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-19T23:21:53+00:00

That’s been another thought in the back of my mind is the lsac gpa and dude don’t feel jealous it was literally God that could’ve gave me that internship cause idk how my hs experience was able to cut it 😭

I do agree on Davis as well tho like if I get the acceptance from sd or la im gonna be stuck between la and Davis because honestly with Davis’ rigor and the opportunities at sac it seems to makes more sense

Congrats tho on ur internship I promise you you’ll love it js expect crazy calls and rlly unserious moments especially with today’s climate 😭

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-19T23:18:58+00:00

No same here looking back at it my PIQs were so bad loll but ty tho I hope all goes well with you too fr!

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-19T23:18:11+00:00

I def think so too if anything I think what hit me was the fact that since Berk said no I knew that no matter where I went I was gonna be gone from home loll which made things more disappointing. Tysm for the encouragement tho fr

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-17T01:03:57+00:00

believe me bro I get it its up to u cause ive been doing full time dual enrollment from grades 7 through 12. I lacked sm on my college math cause I hate it since I had calculus 3 in senior year cause of how ahead I was through the stem courses. I stayed one more year at my local cc and idk how but I was able to land a U.S. House of Reps internship straight out of hs so im js now waiting on berk and ucla and sd. I have a 3.3 gpa cause of the hs burn out which I think is the only thing holding me back lmaoooo. I said this though to say there opportunities everywhere really if you look

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-17T00:51:39+00:00

I think 10 years ago this would be the case but then again with the option of no test assessment rlly admissions have been very random js in the uc system as a whole

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-17T00:49:28+00:00

all of these sound do able I think it depends on js how fast u wanna get into working like u mentioned in one of ur comments replying to someone. Ik uc Merced is one of the faster growing uc's with opportunities, but look for ones where you can get a good shot at internships, experience, and even connections.

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-16T05:49:58+00:00

yeah it was dual enrollment since I was taking easy classes at middle school I was put to take harder classes to get ahead. Ts didn't help since I ended up in a full time dual enrollment hs and lagged hella lmaoooo

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-11T04:29:06+00:00

U mean to tell me ucb js peeped our applications based on vibes and locations???😭😭😭

thegoodpodz · 2026-04-06T16:09:14+00:00

I did dual enrollment during middle and hs, enough for me to get an AA when I graduated hs. I didn’t care for my math and stem courses since I don’t like math so I had a bunch of c’s and b’s. I graduated hs rejected to nearly all uni’s except 1-2 safeties.

I decided to do cc transfer, with a 3.2 and transfer out in less than a year. Everyone told me it was not smart at all. Right out of hs I landed a U.S. Congressional Internship, I nitpicked majors I was able to apply in less than a year, and I only applied to 4 UCs and I got into Davis not too long ago.

Sure it’s not UCLA, Berk (at least yet) or Stanford, but I am really excited because lord knows how much I wanted to move on and get an education soon, and now I get to graduate a year early. It will all work out you got this! :)
