Is that time of the year? Man I remember that ...can't believe it's been 4 years. It was a pretty stressful and ****ty time since I got rejected to most places.. Luckily I'm at UC Davis right now and ..well i can't say I'm happy since I've been studying my *** off for finals. But good luck to you man, where did you apply?

well I was just there, last year.
College admissions were tough dude, its not a great time to be a white male lol. (diversity :/ )
I had an 1860 on sat's, 27 on act, 3.3 unweighted gpa, 3.9 weighted (colleges didnt care)
I applied as a Mech. Engineer to:
UC Davis
Cal Poly
University of Washington
University of Colorado, Boulder
Oregon State
I got into to UC Boulder and Oregon State. Set to go to CU Boulder in August
I petitioned my app. to UW, it made it all they way to the board, but the school was filled. UC Davis had 40,000 applications last year and they accepted 5,000.
times are tough. Good luck dude.
What schools did you apply to?

Dang congrats on irvine and sd those are two good schools.
I am business too, did you apply for the irvine business management program?
Haas is definitely a awesome school. I have 3 cousins that have graduated from there and 1 more thats graduating this year. I don't get why a lot of bay area ppl hate Berkley. I personally think its pretty awesome but i guess that's a college kids view point.
well gl again for everyone still waiting.
