ED: would be 50% (or more), I would like to think.
But CMU is always worried that a California resident getting into UCB EECS may not come (location and cost), so chance of acceptance would be higher if from other states with the same stats.
Do they have strong CS or just well rounded education with stren
I heard many HM graduates continue to study in graduate schools (I suspect this is the case for most Ivies and LACs ). Is it because undergraduates education from these schools are more academic and not preparing the kid for top industrial positions?
好像只有UBC 不太容易选课，其他的学校又没人管你进去后读哪个系。这个年纪的孩子系科都是换来换去，很自然。AO也要平衡各系的新生数目，都填大家想去的系当然进不去。并不是说撒谎，而是每个学生本来就可以double majors, triple majors, a major and a minor, two majors and a minor, etc. etc.
My son's GPA is higher than 3.9/4.0 UWGPA, 4.55WGPA, OOS, lots of great ECs and leaderships, he did not get into UCB/EECS this year.
Or does UBC focuses more on GPAs/Standard tests than ECs/Competition results?
我上面不是写了吗？
田园孩子unweighted GPA 4.0. 田园的孩子文科非常强。修了本校最难的AP文科且都拿A,写作超强 标准考试轻松满分
別告訴我只中了UCB
我是羊妈，只知道管好吃喝，加上接送。孩子提出的所有要求都答应。所有活动都是他自己跟着高年级同学学着安排的。
我希望他以后能有个easy life,不要象父母这么辛苦。所以才会想让他平????些。
My son did get an offer from UT Austin turing scholar, we are OOS for texas too. UT offered 20 spots for out of state students this year.
尽管cal有世界上一流的AI Lab无奈不怎么对本科生开放。听说mit牛娃太多，进AI Lab并不容易。还是S最好，supply多需求相对少。caltech要上至少一学期没用的必修课，有用的课有些开不出。research 机会相对又少。
感觉现在的CS专业和十年前都不一样了。市场需求变了。个人觉得还是应该学点真本事。尤其是你娃这样可走技术这条路的。
EECS waitlisted, then got in - class of 2021
Good catch!
CMU SCS RD ~5%.
This candidate: 30% due to the awards.
ED: would be 50% (or more), I would like to think.
But CMU is always worried that a California resident getting into UCB EECS may not come (location and cost), so chance of acceptance would be higher if from other states with the same stats.
even for admission purpose.
CS专业不能保证。这么好的Stats,申请EECS，进不去不费神。进了UCB L&S CS，不保证专业，反而徒增烦恼。
非常感谢您的建议！平时管得少，害怕耽误了孩子。我会把您的建议告诉他。

只读本科，没读研的毕业生：
https://www.payscale.com/college-salary-report/bachelors
1. Harvey Mudd
2. Princeton
3. MIT
所有毕业生（包括读研和不读研的）：
https://www.payscale.com/college-salary-report/all-bachelors
1. Stanford
2. Harvey Mudd
3. Caltech
当然，这样的排名对工程学校有利。Harvey Mudd is an unusual combination of a LAC with an engineering school.
Can try on MIT, Caltech and Columbia, but These three are hard to get in regardless of majors.
