10/30 For those of you unfortunate enough to have selected UC Berkeley
for your undergraduate CS *cough* education, you will want to
check out: http://aduni.org
"Our goal is to offer the world's best computer science education,
at an undergraduate level, to people who are currently unable to
obtain it." (Berkeley undergrads match this criterion)
\_ I got my medical degree that way. I can now legally perform over
137 operations in this country, Haiti, and seven other islands.
\_ shut up paolo
\_ heh heh. heh.
\_ I think that its 4700. It was 4500 when I applied (93).
\_ may not have anything to do with the original post but,
4850 (he had 4870).
what's the current academic index needed to get into
EECS? What GPA do you need to get into L&S, CS?
\_ I think that its 7700. It was 7500 when I applied (93).
From what my brother tells me BioE had the highest at
7850 (he had 7870).
\_ I thought index = GPA*1000 + SAT Verbal + SAT Math +
Achievement Test English + 2 other Achievement Tests?
That's around 8000 or so in the old days...
\_ Oops, I wrote 4 instead of 7. Fixed.
\_ It's GPA*1000 + SAT I + 3 SAT II's (formally called Achievements)
math and English comprising two of the SAT II tests. ~7340 was
required for automatic admission back in '96, but I think they got
rid of automatic admission two years go.
\_ The problem with the concept is it suposedly gives it to
people otherwise "unable to obtain it".
The most common factor for this is money. But if you need
money, you probably will NOT be able to dedicated an entire
year of your life solely to this program, and not to making
money keeping yourself in rent and foot. Which is what
presumably would be neccessary for this "one intense year." |
