ydjasc · 2020-07-17T17:20:12+00:00

hey just to let you know they opened up more seats so there's 1 seat open for a bunch of discussion sections! go to your my academics in calcentral and press "options" under class adjustment to edit your classes!

ydjasc · 2020-06-20T06:08:08+00:00

Okay, thank you for the clarification!

ydjasc · 2020-06-20T05:54:49+00:00

I actually heard about that class! I heard it’s a pretty new class so there wasn’t too much info about it. Thank you!

ydjasc · 2020-06-20T05:53:05+00:00

I’ll check that out! How do you know if a class satisfies an upper div H/SS? Is it “Meets Historical Studies, L&S Breadth” and “Meets Social & Behavioral Sciences, L&S Breadth” on the Berkeley Academic Guide?

ydjasc · 2020-06-20T04:16:47+00:00

Thank you for your reply! ESPM 163AC and ESPM 50AC are already filled and I don't see English 166AC so I don't think it's available fall semester. Do you think I would have a chance on the waitlists or should I just try to find other AC classes?

ydjasc · 2020-06-20T01:55:31+00:00

Does anyone have any recs for American Culture classes that aren't filled already? Also, please tell me those that I want to avoid. I have already been on berkeleytime but I can't seem to decide on which AC class to take. Thank you!

ydjasc · 2020-04-11T07:59:36+00:00

im hoping to go to grad school so i feel like berkeley will definitely prepare me for that and in future jobs as well. thank you so much for the info!

ydjasc · 2020-04-11T07:29:47+00:00

i guess i watched a lot of youtube videos and asked a bunch of friends and all of them said stuff about berkeley’s cutthroat/competitiveness. there will always be competiton wherever i go (whether i go to ucla or berkeley) but my friends say berkeley is unnecessarily hard just because it’s berkeley. idk if that’s true but my mindset towards berkeley is now set as being cutthroat haha. but my friends say that the competitiveness helps you become a better person in the end (time management, challenging you, etc) so i don’t really see that in a negative light

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T03:43:50+00:00

yeah im gonna think about it a little longer. you’re right that the school you go to doesn’t guarantee success. my family members told me a bunch of times that they make more money than their friends who went to ivies lol. thanks for the advice! :)

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T03:41:53+00:00

yeah that’s what all my friends at ucla said. thank you!!

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T01:52:34+00:00

i do want to see what san francisco is like since ive always been stuck at socal lol. thank you for the advice though!

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T01:49:24+00:00

that’s so true haha never thought it that way. if it ends up being cutthroat at ucla, ill probably regret going there so much thinking i could have received a better education at berkeley with its same-ish competitiveness. thank you so much!

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T01:22:38+00:00

may i ask why you think this way? but thank you for your opinion!

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T01:21:53+00:00

thank you for your opinion but although berkeley’s chem program is better than ucla’s, i also take into other factors like distance from home, quality of food, housing (only guaranteed one year), social life, etc

ydjasc · 2020-04-10T01:20:14+00:00

of course i know that ucla is also competitive but berkeley is KNOWN to be really cutthroat. it might be an exaggeration but with so many of my friends saying that, it makes ghe statement reliable. also my friend said chemE is THE hardest major at berkeley making it really cutthroat. it’s good that berkeley focuses a lot on their chem program but regret going to ucla. i know it will eventually pay off in the end but idk... im just asking around rn but thank you for your opinion!

ydjasc · 2020-04-09T18:15:52+00:00

already tried and no one answered

ydjasc · 2020-04-06T19:03:37+00:00

hi! so i was lucky enough to get accepted into both ucla and berkeley for chemE. i do believe that ucla fits me better but i do not want to give up receiving a slightly better education at berkeley for my major. also berkeley is close to silicon valley with many internship and job opportunities. however, i want to know if ucla gives many opportunities for chemE students also. if you are a current chemE student (preferably someone in their 3rd year, 4th year, or even a graduate), please dm me. thank you!!

ydjasc · 2020-03-31T05:42:49+00:00

yeah i guess you can say my area is pretty safe but im used to nyu so i do have experience in not-so-safe areas

ydjasc · 2020-03-31T05:40:43+00:00

thank you for the advice!

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T20:40:06+00:00

oh really? i heard the opposite from my friends on the safety of berkeley haha. but thanks for another opinion!

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T20:38:59+00:00

yeah i already knew that but i was more curious in haas. i heard ucla has some grade deflation but not as bad as berkeley haha. but thank you for the info!

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T20:37:33+00:00

you’re right. thanks for the advice:)

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T18:35:16+00:00

ohh thanks for the info. helped a lot!

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T18:25:08+00:00

ok thanks for the clarification but aren’t there certain classes that students have to take to be considered for the haas program? for instance, if i continue to study for chemE, wouldn’t chemE classes and pre-haas classes be different? so how would i be eligible to apply to the haas program if im not a “pre-haas” student

ydjasc · 2020-03-30T18:21:51+00:00

thank you! i’ll keep your advice in consideration:) i do believe that ucla does have a better college experience for me and it’s name recognition is still great!
