I hope to go there im currently in high school in England (Cambridge) and hope to go here. But how do i apply because in England we dont have SAT or AST we have GCSE and A-level. Someone help :)
@KrimzonFX I got in 2 years ago (not attending though) with a 2240 SAT, 800 in maths and physics subject tests, 10 A* at GCSE and 45 IB. People get rejected with better stats, others get in with lower. Make sure you put lots of thought into your essays. The whole application process is online so it's quite efficient and you have complete control over it. Good luck!
@missprisss if you tell your self you won't get in you won't cause you don't have the right mind set believe in your self and you may be surprised in what you discover
Moving in two days. I am going to miss home but I'm glad that I'm living in one the residence hall. :) Berkeley will be my home for 2 years and I hope my two years will be full of fun and memories. :)
I got admitted into both Cal and UCLA and I choose UCLA. I had the opportunity to visit Cal and it was a beautiful school but just wasn't the place for me. If your dream is to come to Cal work hard and be optimistic!!! Good luck to all future applicants!!!
She prefers american schools to german schools?What a stupid move,maybe she isnt inteligent enough to be accepted here...BTW really nice enviorment you have there in the campus :-)
I saw this video my 2 years ago, when i was a high school sophomore, never in my dreams did I think id see this video again, only this time, as a newly admitted student :D
Man this just makes me want to do better each & everyday, ta put my all into school. Kuz UC Berkely i think itz the best for me. Man & im only a sophtmore in highschool so i still can do what i need to make things better. Im most definatley striving to get in !
So are all of the kids at this school products of helicopter parents? I'd like to know because I applied to transfer there from a California community college
Contrary to belief rbd510, the school is really not that liberal compared to others like Oregon state in Eugene. The community is ultra liberal, but the a lot of the students don't give a shit about being liberal.
you mean too many people who are smarted than you...
well your right these people arent the typical cool kids in high school ... damn they are nerdy lookin but later on they get the money and cars.. thats what matters!
Hey punks! This is Rolando! I love you all you guys... They pretty much recorded my whole dormitory people... Lainey, Ashish, Sarah, Tracy, Margret, and some guys name i forgot! I love CAL and all its people. I am an engineering student. IT was between MIT and CAL... I LOVE CAL way much more for my civil major! GO BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh. i cant WAIT.this is soo EXCITING seriously and sad.. I visited it last yr with my academy. Me and my friend has already decided to come here.. For me, its either here or down south. i seriously need to raise my grade up.. iwant a CHANGE. and this is it.
I just had 2 APs my junior year and 4 my senior year. I have a 4.13 GPA and a 1750 SAT. They look at a lot more than academics! (my SAT was sad. lol.) Don't kill yourself with too many APs!
Oh my gosh! I went to Mitty and Berkeley, too. Good luck getting into Cal! I actually had a really high gpa at Mitty, but I think you should be able to get in with that. If not, and if you are still set on Cal, you can always try transferring. I hope you get in! Compared to MItty, I found Berkeley very challenging, but it sounds like you've taken enough AP/Honors courses to enjoy the challenge. Good luck!!!!
But i know that it's extremely expensive to study in Berkeley, I know that you will pay $46,708 a year, so... But Berkeley is one of the best in California, ther are 7 proffeser teaching who received a Nobel prize :)
Berkeley is not expensive at all for in-state tuition, although Out-of-staters do have to pay a pretty penny. But, it is an amazing institution situated within an urban region, mountainous country hills, several suburban sections. It is also very close to Lawrence Berkeley National Labs, Richmond Field Station, and fairy close to San Francisco.
Not too many yuppies at Berkeley. Haha, Berkeley's got a mix of everything. Some yuppies by North Shattuck (near safeway/the cheeseboard), and other yuppies on South College (by Icee) , but immediately south of campus is Telegraph (very NON yuppy) and immediately north of Campus is a residential hillside section. Climb up the hills behind Berkeley for beautiful views of San Francisco.
Great campus, excellent town--just be aware that on moving day many of the profs are lying in wait to turn your bright curious mind into Socialist mush. Be strong!
I was just the same as the girl in 4:22 , I had to choose between UCLA and UCB. But the difference is, I actually chose UCLA [b/c I lived in LA and I hated long driving] and up until now, I still have my regrets. Not because UCLA sucked or something. I actually loved UCLA... it's just that, I'd been wanting to go to Berkeley ever since I was 12.
You know, I understand what it feels like to make such a permanent decision, but I think you could've persevere with the long distance if you really wanted to go to Berkeley.
Oh what a nice ved!!! i am from argentina, south america and i hope that in 1 year i will be moving onto Berkeley! What a nice and emotional video you did!
Her shirt changes color because it's tradition to not wear red on school function days (like the first day for instance). Probably a weird joke by the editor.
Congratulations from an alumnus. Is there any better place to study engineering? No, I think not. Just remember to stay sane, organize your time, and not get cynical. This place will push you very very hard and you will run into your fair share of neurotic weirdos in the CoE, but it all forces you do dig deep within yourself and show them what you are made of. This sense of never letting anything stop you will stick you forever. It is a great time to be an engineer. Congrats again and Go Bears!
