Hi Seneca, which high school classes do you recommend for a pre-medical degree?

Nice page. Seems like yesterday that I graduated from Cal. Grade deflation is real thing especially at Cal. Pretty sure for my year, my major’s (Nutritional Science M&P) average GPA was ~3.3 or something absurd like that. Rest assured, med schools will respect Cal’s name. That being said, if I can go back, I’d never pick Cal for premed. NEVER lol. But yeah, currently in med school.

Did you get a freshman edge email sent to you before acceptance letter?

Your super pale skin color is soooo beautiful!

People with multiple majors and minors are absolutely insane

So informative, thanks Seneca!!

Riley Gaines ROCKS!!!!!

Damm you’re beautiful

Hi ALANA, I am interested in MCB , for this major how many math courses required?

I just want to know why my ps4 doesn’t work on Blackwell

How difficult is your workload? I’m nervous that I could be spending all of my time on homework.

Do you have advice for courses like Bio1b and chem 3a?

Berkeley truly has grade deflation. Bio has the worst on average, at B- but I once had an Econ professor that curved to C+. Also, there are 35,000+ students but only one gym. Also also, there is no housing post-freshman unless you can afford to pay $2,000 for a shoebox. Also also also, there is a lot of crime, mostly homeless.

Super helpful! Just subscribed 😊

I want to like to say that you are very sweet girl

Hello, my daughter is waiting for an acceptance, how is the schools surrounding area? Is it safe? Or is their a homelessness problem? This is something that I’m worried about. 😔

Excellent Videos!! Thank you!! 😊🌞🌴

I just committed! Also planning to do MCB :)

Hi! By freshman u mean what age? Can I apply here to study for grade 9? Loved your vid btw

Hi, can you please make a video on the admission requirements and process please cause your videos are quite simple and easy to understand. Thank you

When I lived in the dorms at Sacramento State, the annual rate for the dorms was close to the annual rate for a one bedroom apartment. I always thought that cost of dorms was overrated since most students go home during breaks, leaving an apartment on a lease vacant.

I want to switch to CNR but Im not sure what major 😩 I’m between toxicology and nut sci ahhh

omg no way i also joined a lab with incredible people!!!!

hey, i heard that it's like really hard? especially if you apply undeclared, apparently its extremely competitive (like ultra, ultra competitive) to be honest though, i go to a high school that is apparently "super competitive" but i literally do not feel that way at all, tbh it seems like most of my classmates either are 1) allergic to work 2) have no capability to simply make their lives better themselves and see it through a better perspective 3) have no drive to learn, so it's weird? all i want is a school that constantly pushes me to be better, like always. and people who will NOT rain down on my growth-mindset, because everyone at my school is so negative, i just want to be around people who will push me to be a truly better person

just got admitted! my biggest concern is if the course work is gonna kill me

Hi! Thanks for the videos :) Where do the graduate students usually live? Sororities/Fraternities or off-campus?

cheeky nandos...americans u r missing out... going to the east coast for grad school..they have a more european sensibility ...

My daughter just finished her first semester at Cal in Biology and I can’t lie- it was rough and she got a bit demoralized by a weeder class. One of the things we do get hung up on a lot is what career path she will take. This was a very timely video for me to hear your thoughts on your future as I’ve been following you since my daughter was admitted last year. I know you will be great at whatever you choose.

Excited for you and your future! What cool experiences to have! I always used to see you after one of my classes, but bc I was rushing around (and bc it was weird, lol) I didn't say hi. I'm looking forward to joining more extracurriculars, hopefully participating in COB for a sorority I really clicked with, and just generally getting out of my shell more - which I just honestly haven't done since the pandemic; I feel so socially lost now. All the best!

Hi friends! Comment down below something you're looking forward to this upcoming year! So excited to get back more consistently on here!

Bring an electric kettle or hot water dispenser for tea, coffee & instant ramen.

Clark Kerr is also very expensive.

Ha ha, our all -girls 7th floor in Cunningham Hall, unit 2 was definitely not less social than the other floors. In fact, it was the opposite. We had guys from the other floors coming to hang out often. We had to ask them not to use our bathroom. Back in the ‘90s, Units 1 & 2 had their own dining halls. Unit 3 is NOT older. It’s just that Units 1 & 2 have been renovated. IIRC, Unit 4 was Manville Hall (closed down in the mid ‘90s). Unit 5 is Bowles/Stern. Unit 6 is Foothill. Unit 7 is Clark Kerr. I don’t know if they’ve changed this numbering.

Good luck on finals!

❤️❤️😍😍

Love the video out of all videos I related most to this because I rewatch lectures, wasted too much time drawing diagrams and write down everything the Professor says in order to fully understand. You taught me a lot! Keep it up!!

This is such a great way to represent the various divisions of biology :)!!

Oh my gosh, wait! This is gonna sound weird, but I’ve been subbed for a little while (I’m a new transfer and liked seeing other Cal students talk abt their time here), and I think I saw you on campus today. I was like “she looks super familiar”, but I didn’t know from where. Then I saw this vid and it all clicked! Anyway, this is probably super odd from a stranger, but I like your vids! Thanks for sharing! :)

every videos you make are spot on!!! very informative, straight to the point, and full of passion 💞💞💞 keep shining!!

Are going to get a phd in the field that you’ve chosen? I am really interested in molecular and cell biology with a focus in genetics but I am scared that there might not be much work available for me at the bachelor lvl or even at masteral lvl!!

Currently thinking of switching my major with a bio major!!! this was very helpful. love this segment ❤️ i’ll be applying at berkeley too but for transfer. Nonetheless, this was realllyyyy informative!!!

It's honestly wild that this was my last college move-in! It still feels very surreal 😅 Comment down below your favorite part about moving into a new place!

super helpful ty<3

Where do you have to go to get the free bus transportation ??

Thank you Seneca for a very informative video. I would like to ask if you can provide any info on Berkeley's single suite housing. My youngest daughter is joining UC Berkeley as a Junior, I am exploring my options including off campus one bedroom apartments and or Berkeley's single suits housing units. I appreciate your advice and feedback.

This is super helpful, thank you! I'm an incoming freshman moving into a Stern double next month, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my housing haha (first choice). I am a little annoyed that Stern is pretty far away from most things like grocery stores and boba shops, and it's pretty far from where my classes will be in the fall but that's alright! Taking the bus won't be so bad. Do you know how big Stern's rooms are? I've seen a few Stern tour videos but they don't really show the size of the rooms even though I heard that they're some of the biggest dorm rooms in the housing units overall. I have a big pc setup I'm bringing with me so wanna make sure I'll have room for it, lol.

What was the sorority recruitment process like? How does greek life at Berkeley differ from other schools?

ahskw your channel is so underrated!

Did you find that you needed a raincoat/umbrella/rain-boots at UC Berkeley? Did it rain a lot?

i’m transferring into berkeley this fall and i’m forming in clark kerr in a apartment unit!!
