3/4 So far, I've gotten my rejections from ucb, cmu, and mit. Nothing
from Stanford, UW, and UT. Your turn.
\_ Okay, I reject you, too. It's nothing personal, though.
\_ CS Masters or Ph.D?
\_ what difference does it make. He/she got rejected.
\_ trying to understand the facts.
\_ As mentioned before I got into UCLA (EE Masters). Still
waiting for Cornell, UCSD, USC and Stanford.
\_ UCLA is a pretty decent school. Don't feel too bad.
State school, Missippi, Palm Beach Tech, and DVC. The DVC rejection
*really* stings but I think I'll get by. Maybe I can transfer later
on, eh? Is that possible if I get to know a prof there?
At least one of those remaining schools will say yes.
\_ Yay pretty decent :(
\_ for those of us who are too dumb to pass the
subject gre, pretty decent is great. At least
ucla is tier 1. Imagine the poor slobs whose only
option is Hayward State, SJSU or SCU. That would
suck!
\_ If you can't get in to a real school then you might
consider getting a real job instead. What's the point
in getting a degree from a place like Hayward?
\_ or UCLA?
UCLA is tier1 according to _/
us news. It may not be the
best prog. but it is much
better than state school (ie
hayward, sjsu, calpoly), most
of the other uc's and many
of the big name east coast
private schools for EE/CS.
\_ "First tier" == top 10.
UCLA isn't top 10 in CS
(though to be fair it is in
some things).
\_ shockingly, a degree is more than something you
put on your resume so you can get a better job.
-tom
\_ A degree from Hayward isn't.
\_ only if you are changing fields, perhaps.
\_ I'm pretty sure USC will say yes. Probably Cornell
as well since I applied to the M.Eng program (ie
the 1 yr degree factory for "professionals"). I don't
know about Stanford and UCSD. I probably won't go
to SD even if I get in so I don't care. I'm not sure
what I'd do if I got into the farm as I'd have to
keep working (I applied for honors co-op, so that
my company would foot the bill).
\_ I'm guessing you applied for Fall 2002? Or has was this
some time ago when you applied?
\_ I applied for Fall 2002 everywhere except for
the farm. I had to apply for winter 2003 at the
farm because of certain restrictions on "education
funding" at work in the 2002 calendar yr.
\_ I got into: MIT, Yale, Cal, Harvard, Princeton, CMU, Stanford,
Cornell, and my back up, Oxford. I got rejected from every Cal
State school, Mississippi, Palm Beach Tech, and DVC. The DVC
rejection *really* stings but I think I'll get by. Maybe I can
transfer later on, eh? Is that possible if I get to know a prof
there?
\_ is yale good in computer science?
\_ no. and fuck yale
\_ why are you doing this to the "poor" person.
\_ It's easy?
\_ You have a tiny little penis
\_ Yermom didn't say that.
\_ Yermom didn't want to hurt his feelings. She's sensitve
like that.
\_ As a note, many of the lower tier schools reject outstanding
students based on the idea that they know they are the backup
plan and don't want to waste their time on someone they are
fairly sure is going to go someplace else on scholarship. |
