True, I asked the UCB admission officer, they told me there was a discussion on campus whether L&S should also do direct admit by major. but so far, it remains at the proposal and discussion level. there is no official policy to implement the proposed changes yet, as they are still discussing. So it remains the same for 2022. They told me that they want to change L&S CS to direct major admit is because, with the existing policy of getting 3.3 on prerequisite classes, the L&S CS student body is very bad in terms of diversity. Mostly Asian, white males. 健康平安 发表于 2021-09-22 22:21

这就是我奇怪的地方,都说这么出色。为什么本科毕业出来的学生反而显得基础那么差。我感觉大部分写作,数学都不能用。就是刚才说的,基本运算弄不清楚。 我没接触过在校本科生和高中生。或许他们读了四年倒退了。 我手下现在就有一几年前拿到过Berkeley under offer的。高中本科都是4.0。除了给documentation改改语法什么都干不了,deliver不了活
明确规定最好。其实学校可以curve gpa, 也可以限制人数。如果两年后不能declare ,受伤害的孩子自己。我觉得别的uc 似乎都改了。至少ucsd 应该是这一两年改的。公校没有那么多资源,就应该面对现实。 今年报考的只要在报名的时候没改政策,就应该不会进了学校变。但是现实上可以通过curve gpa 来限制人数。 All L&S freshmen are admitted as undeclared https://eecs.berkeley.edu/academics/undergraduate/cs-ba Freshman applicants interested in the Computer Science major can apply to the College of Letters and Science (L&S) , indicating their intended major as CS. All L&S freshmen are admitted as undeclared and encouraged to satisfy the principal prerequisites for their major during their first two years at Berkeley. Undeclared students should apply to declare their majors by the end of their sophomore year or during the first semester of their junior year.
这个政策可能还是为统计用,因为规定没变,anyone got 3.3+ on the 3 courses can declare CS major. it does not matter what major interest you mention in your application, you can say you want to major in History, but if you get 3.3+ on the 3 prerequisite courses, you can become CS major.

准备广撒网T20,加 UC T6 campuses
求申请策略,专业方向,其它学校选项及注意事项。
中秋快乐!拜谢轻拍!
🔥 最新回帖
这个靠谱,
小中男,太难了:(
这个prerequisite 其实是很大的concern UCB很多热门课很难选上…
谢谢信息。没想到学校改规则的用心竟然是这个。我还以为就是为孩子有个明确的目标
白金这种spike不够MIT,可以统计一下白金里面有多少进了MIT
🛋️ 沙发板凳
sjsu
这点哪儿够
也太夸张下嫁,去掉两头夸张的就行
讲真?
我的判断是:难。
请教这份简历哪儿比较欠缺啊?小娃父母看不出来觉得看着好像还可以
re.去康奈尔的可能性还大一点
不是孩子差而是别人更强,内卷是也
和UC比,性价比好像不高 名气又是藤校垫底,没什么意思?
是,小姨子现在可谓惶惶不可终日 大扰四方 随着ED/EA截止日逼近 搞得我们也一起有些焦虑
七分公校不能算亮点吧,华人应该是减分项,除非是黑墨这种。
他们学校听说零零散散进T5的也有 但好像基本通过QuestBridge路径
中产小中男,空悲切…
基本上就是这样打算的 难在上看的机会,EA/ED选项
这孩子见血会吐 对businesss方向也有兴趣
进UCB EECS没什么希望
如果申请UC CS, 建议考虑second tier。
lz没说CS好像。
这个profile如果申请生物呢?
没有STEM方面大奖,没戏
不好说,楼主也没提是否参加了 USABO, 有没有得奖,有没有进 USABO camp,11年级暑假 intern 有没有做和生物有关的project
是的,如果想申请CS,UC只能second tier, UCB and UCLA 都没希望,我认识进这两个学校的,高中的时候有竞赛白金奖,而且高年级有做industry level的 项目。
要不说说什么样的才能进吧。我们好早做准备。
不信都是USAMO。那种才几个人。就我接触那几个UC分校的学生来说,虽然不知道他们profile怎么样。直接用起来,基础都很一般,包括数学基础,算个指数log都经常出错。所以我不知道板上说的要求这么高到底是高在那里。
大家都是看周围录取的学生profile 来预测什么样的profile 能进UCB, UCLA 热门专业,具体什么样能进只能问AO 了。
参考去年录取情况,加州学生去州大确实结果不理想,进的也是实在很出色。
https://www.isd.pku.edu.cn/info/1174/6502.htm
SATI总分1400分(含)以上,要求参加写作;另须提供三门课程考试成绩,SAT II和AP课程均可,科目不得近似或相同。 SATII成绩应在650分(含)以上,AP成绩应在4分(含)以上(Code 7731)

不知道啊,我们暑假来做intern 还有毕业招的几个大学生都很好,有UCB,MIT,还有sjsu. 素质都很高。 有个小印已经有很多年part time 工作经验了,暑假寒假一直在工作,业余开发了好几个软件在appstore 下载量很大,真的是特别有passion。 我们老板以前很hesitate 招新人,现在看法也改变啦
这可能就是cs的好处了,容错性强, 带一堆bug也能运行。
MIT的当然强了 Mit的愿意找马工的才几个人
我们不是码code,但是会需要计算。
最多用到linear algebra ,calculus第一章吧
嗯,嗯,那是有可能基础不太好的, UCB history 专业3.5GPA 就能进,还有一些community college 读两年转UC 一些专业的。 基础确实参差不齐
UCB据说除了EECS不是很难进,你手下的这个是小中男ucb eecs的?
楼主别担心了。让孩子享受自己的学习生活吧
化学
感觉大学招生主要是本高中同学自相残杀,家长虽然一头雾水, 但娃都心里有数。 娃自己肯定知道,学校里有哪些人跟自己差不多的profile,但又比自己哪方面更强,这样数一数,再对比一下往年录取结果, 大致就知道自己的去向了。
求私信个能给essay把关的,多谢!
就是,ed 小藤比较好。 专业方向需要孩子自己说啊。比如premed, 这个成绩ed wash u ,妥妥的。
那有可能。我们村去ucb eecs的挺强的,应该不会象你说的这种情况
你朋友娃usaco白金也进不去uiuc吗?
康奈儿已经是很好的学校了,UC里面也就是Ucb和UCLA能稍微比一下。这两家UC这两年的录取很难说,去年很多package不错的亚裔学生翻车,尤其想学CS的。觉得康奈儿不够好再试试哥伦比亚吧
七分公校里面的华人亚裔肯定比10分公校里的少很多。这样的情况,同类竞争会小一些。
我也不知道呀,孩子刚Junior,学习中。你没有找counselor吗?找了就是他们的事,没找就去找专门改essay的服务,有专业的,也有名校大学生帮忙的,我邻居孩子居然就在tiktok上找的广告,说也有帮助
这个孩子想要进T5,感觉不太够。本来T5录取就是很飘渺的,他的亮点几乎都是亚裔亮点基本面,没有特色,很难把他自己跟其他优秀小中男区分开来
得奖的是哪一种乐器?以前听说过小提琴的concert master进哈佛的。
我说两个小中男data points, 一个三年前进的UCLA CS, 南加最competitive的高中之一(全是考进去的)的,Oxford Academy, 高中四年除了一门B,其他straight A, 校网球队的,没有特别拿得出手的大奖,十几门AP。另外一个去年进UCB EECS, 另一个highly competitive high school, Troy High,也是类似成绩,学校debate 队队长,也没有什么大奖。总结小中男进1st tier UC CS, 如果没有大奖,基本上学习要非常过硬,十几门AP, 极其competitive 高中的高GPA, 八九分高中,估计单靠成绩(课外活动没有特别之处,没大奖),估计得全校第一第二名了。
感觉这个属于走well rounded 路线的。GPA 和weightedGPA都很高。申cs 的话ucla 大概率UCLA可以进,ucsd regents有希望。 完全没有stem竞赛ucb eecs 比较没可能,之前ucb ls 随便申个啥专业进去declare cs 今年开始要直接申请了有点说不准。 UC的申请我感觉基本上就是看GPA, weighted GPA . 这个case孩子的weighted GPA 算很高了。当然了,每个学校不同,参考一下同学校的学长情况感觉会更准些。
T20 私校强烈建议别申cs, 随便找个文科major,进去随便改。
UIUC 对加州孩子有白金的大概率直接据。金以下进的机会大多了。大部分进的都是没做过cs 竞赛的小孩。
是什么原因?觉得那些娃overqualified?
我刚刚查了uc Berkeley 网站。至少现在还是所有的Letters and Science 学生都是undeclared 。你这个ls 今年要declared 有什么官方link 吗?我的理解是学校希望你申请的时候如果以后想学cs ,就declare cs. 但这个和你入学后最后是否可以declare cs毫无关系。
猜也许是yield protection,加州的孩子要是白金大概率能去ucb ucla,不会去uiuc
今年应该还是和往年一样。我有个朋友家娃今年去的Berkeley LS,两年后再洗牌一次。
En makes sense.
Carnegie Hall汇演资格
这个厉害吗?
很厉害, 每年就几次小孩子的专场,每次几十个, 而且还是不分年龄段的
那不稳稳的打疼吗?
你是来捣乱的吗 😄😄
可以冲一下大藤
啥意思, overqualify?
学CS人太多,明年入学改革了。想读CS申请的时候就要声明,有严格的名额限制,估计录取要向eecs看齐
对,白金的基本都让MIT录了。这种的给了offer会不来,学校就不给了,保护yield rate
请问: STEM方面大奖有哪些? 谢谢!
明确规定最好。其实学校可以curve gpa, 也可以限制人数。如果两年后不能declare ,受伤害的孩子自己。我觉得别的uc 似乎都改了。至少ucsd 应该是这一两年改的。公校没有那么多资源,就应该面对现实。
今年报考的只要在报名的时候没改政策,就应该不会进了学校变。但是现实上可以通过curve gpa 来限制人数。
All L&S freshmen are admitted as undeclared
https://eecs.berkeley.edu/academics/undergraduate/cs-ba
Freshman applicants interested in the Computer Science major can apply to the College of Letters and Science (L&S) , indicating their intended major as CS. All L&S freshmen are admitted as undeclared and encouraged to satisfy the principal prerequisites for their major during their first two years at Berkeley. Undeclared students should apply to declare their majors by the end of their sophomore year or during the first semester of their junior year.
什么?USACO platinum都没进UIUC CS。真的?太夸张了。
that makes sense! 吓我一跳
过去24小时和孩子及家长在Naviance把各学校的录取历史翻了一遍
值得安慰的是这孩子进UCSD、UCI、UCD、UCSB十拿九稳,基本无虞(当然不敢说100%) 保底的有了…
怎么game这个政策 不是还是要求indicating CS专业吗?
同吓一跳。那位层主的解释很有道理。
这个政策可能还是为统计用,因为规定没变,anyone got 3.3+ on the 3 courses can declare CS major. it does not matter what major interest you mention in your application, you can say you want to major in History, but if you get 3.3+ on the 3 prerequisite courses, you can become CS major.
换言之,先进去(数学、统计、不拘一格) 然后两年后再定
