Do you now have to go and get specific grades in your exams for your offers to become unconditional, or are they unconditional already (ie you've got a place, you dont need to do anything else aside pay for it ?) ------------------------------------------------- I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

In fact, taking standardized tests here is an important part of the acceptance process for many college, although how big the part is inflated can depend. Some people make a bigger deal out of it than it really is, some not so much. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.

Too bad I only applied to UCD and UCSC, except for the usual states.. UCD didn't accept me, but it smells like cows up there anyways.

JQW Fish Addict Posts: 869 Kudos: 758 Registered: 09-Apr-2003	Edited by JQW Congratulations Cup_of_Lifenoodles for being offered to UC Berkeley! Too bad I'm down in Australia, I finished my Highschool last year too and I got accepted into University of Melbourne. Actually it's the only school I applied for, close to home, about a hour drive in the trafic lol. I would loved to go to UC Berkeley to study, but they offer like 2 places in the whole of australia lol. Hopefully I can get my PhD there. I'm studying Bachelor of Biomedicine Hoping to major in Pharmacology and Immunology We don't start a major until 2nd year.
