Bravo to you, young man! You are not only smart but with a passion to service in the community. You will have a great future no matter which school you go or a profession you choose to be in!
tell him to look for a major or broad field he might like and start his extracurriculars now. Its a lot easier to spend an hour a week freshman year instead of cramming everything junior year
Hey, for your research paper, did you have a mentor in that specific area of study or was it completely independent? I am curious because I want to do something similar but do not know if I need a mentor or not.
I would love to know how you published your research. I’m a freshman and this whole year I have been working on a couple teen psych and mental health papers/research. I truly want to help the community beyond college APS and share my work with my community
Hey, if you're still thinking about this, I've done some research on mental health/psychology right now as a sophomore in hs. I can give you some advice if you shoot me a dm somewhere if you're still interested^^. It's nice to see someone else interested in mental health research.
Are research papers difficult to make? I'm above average in my school when it comes to writing essays but compiling studies sounds difficult and draining
@@nuriyah79 Well, if you're doing research you actually care or like, it'll be fine, since that'll motivate you. Personally, yeah I sometimes get stuck when citing sources. I have a doc that might help for certain research paper writing tips if you want.
@@parvdeepdeswal9407 Yeah, or Berkeley just doesn't fit him. For instance, I don't like MIT, even though I'm an international student, and everyone in my country loves it, and the fact that it is top 1. I just wrote my comment to get his point, but he didn't respond
@@anitm5313 Yeah im an indian student, born and raised in california but i lived in india for 10 years, came back last year for 11th grade and now going to 12th grade in 1 week, aiming for any of the UCs preferably ucla but well see how it goes
Im a junior in high school, an out of state student and don’t have AP/Honors classes on my transcript, however I do have a 3.81 gpa, and would like to go to UCLA to study political science (which supposedly is 25% easier to get into) according to admissions data, and my extracurriculars include Model UN, Mock Trial, Students demand Action, Best Buddies, director of fundraising in the current events club, volunteering with school, and Student Council (where I might become secretary) Can I Still get in to UCLA given my strong Extracurricular activities?
Note UCLA College of Letters and Sciences does not admit by major. This means you are applying for the college and the majors within that college is not impacted. You can expect CAS to be around 11 percent acceptance rate which is still very doable.
I would like to join VEX Robotics and was wondering how u would go about such a thing? Did your highschool have it available as a club or did you join outside of your highschool?
For extracurricular do would they want more with leadership involvement like I'm the programming lead for my school's vex robotics next year will that count?
They would for sure like to see leadership experiences, it’s always good to see your increased involvement in something that you have been doing for a long time. But I think UCs also have some emphasis on applying your knowledge towards helping others through volunteering or other activities
How many schools in total did you apply to? also did you have to apply to UC schools separately or did you apply through the common application, 'm asking because on the common app there is only 10 extracurriculars but you had more.
@@DanielDD4889 Now, this is a pack of crap you have said. I know a black boy with a nearly similar profile, plus a math publication. He got rejected from IVYs. Stop peddling assumptions you know nothing about
Yeah ofc! In my town, I think they hold CERT at least twice a year - once in the fall and once in the spring, and all you need to do is sign up through your city or country website. While you completely the 6 weekly trainings, you’ll also need to finish its online course. Usually you’ll have firefighters and policemen teaching the in-person classes, and there will be a final exam given at the end. It was such a unique and fun experience, you def should try it
So you went to high school in CA which is why you got into UC's. The schools that rejected you lost out. I think there is an anti Asian bias at a lot of private schools because so many that apply are super qualified and the student body would be majority Asian. UC's are not able to consider race but they have to give priority to CA residents so the most competitive UC's are majority Asian. People like you are what make the University of California the greatest university system in the world.
Actually they give priority to out of state students and that’s why CA residents have called them out on it. They do that since they can more tuition $ from out of state applicants
@@CLaFong that's not really a fair comparison/argument because many college students want to stay closer to home + in state tuition is a lot less than out of state hence the vast amount of CA students in UC's
Take a speed reading course it makes you not only realize how easy reading comp is compared to computational subjects (the answers are right in front of you) but also helps time management and teaches how to enter a state of almost perfect focus.
Bravo to you, young man! You are not only smart but with a passion to service in the community. You will have a great future no matter which school you go or a profession you choose to be in!
Congratulations to UCLA! My son is going to start HS in the fall. This video is very helpful.

@@spektriye yeah im a soph and am starting the cramming right now, still have a bit of hope for some of the UCs
@@spektriye this is so true! I really wish I saw this tip earlier on! (coming from a rising senior that had to cram everything last min)
Thank you for such a great and detailed video. Your video is super helpful.
You are so smart, you doing so great, i dont know how i can even get into UCLA
Awesome! I got accepted to Berk but rejected by UCLA
Congrats! Yeah I feel like a lot of people get into one of them but often not the other
I have 8.23 cgpa.Can I get admission into UC Berkeley for masters in computer science
very inspirational!

Bro, Berkeley is top 10 university of the world, how can you choose UCLA over Berkeley?
Congrats with UCLA btw!!!
they even the same ranking now
Everything depends, berkley maybe could not offer the courses and materials that he wanted for his career.
@@parvdeepdeswal9407 Yeah, or Berkeley just doesn't fit him. For instance, I don't like MIT, even though I'm an international student, and everyone in my country loves it, and the fact that it is top 1. I just wrote my comment to get his point, but he didn't respond

9:30 yessir we were allianced at vcoe 😭😭
How/where did you find Chem Honors as a summer course?! I wanted to take it but I couldn’t find it anywhere 😭
ok... if this stats got rejected from northwestern....I dont think I can get in....

@@PeterJWang yea I also have that- math tutoring for algebra 1- 2 somphmore year and next year it’ll be pre calc and calc at Mathnasium
did you apply to any ivy leagues?
You did good
How many schools in total did you apply to? also did you have to apply to UC schools separately or did you apply through the common application, 'm asking because on the common app there is only 10 extracurriculars but you had more.
The applications are same for all UC which means you only have to write the 4 essays once and submit transcript once
UC application has its own website, and aside from the amounts of ECs and awards you can put down, it is pretty similar to the common app
This boy is wonderful. How did he get rejected from all IVYs?
claudine gay and her followers
If he is balck or hispantic/latino, he can go to any school he wants.
@@DanielDD4889 Now, this is a pack of crap you have said. I know a black boy with a nearly similar profile, plus a math publication. He got rejected from IVYs. Stop peddling assumptions you know nothing about
being international is also increasingly more difficult
so prooo
Hi can you give more info on CERT how to get the training or how to join the CERT

UC do consider race
do u have any studying tips for sat reading and while taking it
Take a speed reading course it makes you not only realize how easy reading comp is compared to computational subjects (the answers are right in front of you) but also helps time management and teaches how to enter a state of almost perfect focus.
All that and you didnt get into berkeley?
There’s no spot to submit SAT?
Not for UC schools. It’s ridiculous
how to make friends
Oh cool we're both from Simi
are you studying in the U.S on a student visa or are you a citizen?
