Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease. It causes irritation, inflammation, and ulcers in the lining of your large intestine (also called your colon). There's no cure, and people usually have symptoms off and on for life. But the right treatments can help you keep a handle on the disease.N
Unified communications (UC) products — equipment, software and services — provide and combine multiple enterprise communications channels, such as voice, video, personal and team messaging, voicemail, and content sharing. This can include control, management and integration of these channels. UC products and services can also be integrated with networks and systems, IT business applications and, in some cases, consumer applications and devices.

horse69 [#13]how tf did u get into ucla while being on vlr 24/7
well think about it like this
everyone has something they do for entertainment, other people are prob on utube 24/7 or another entertainment service, I choose vlr, vlr is just a trackable service so u feel that way
gamr [#18]ok yeah pretty much what i expected. 1560 3.85 uw 4.35 w for me. u basically need a 4.0 for UCs
people with higher stats than me got rejected, ik everyone thinks they wrote god essays but I rly think mine were good but i could be delusional idk
sheahhhh [#20]people with higher stats than me got rejected, ik everyone thinks they wrote god essays but I rly think mine were good but i could be delusional idk
yeah maybe
ash_knuckles [#23]what do these mean
SAT score out of 1600, unweighted GPA, weighted GPA
unweighted is out of a 4.0 scale, weighted is on a 5.0 scale.
gamr [#24]SAT score out of 1600, unweighted GPA, weighted GPA

well damn are the SATs that easy or are both of you just smart smart (tbf i expect half the ppl on here to be smart y'all are nerds anyways)
sheahhhh [#20]people with higher stats than me got rejected, ik everyone thinks they wrote god essays but I rly think mine were good but i could be delusional idk
Im not from the U.S but don’t your extra curricular matter more than your SAT score
ash_knuckles [#26]well damn are the SATs that easy or are both of you just smart smart (tbf i expect half the ppl on here to be smart y'all are nerds anyways)
im not smart but yeah i have a 99% percentile score i think. most people i know get in between 1300-1500
sheppy_ [#27]Im not from the U.S but don’t your extra curricular matter more than your SAT score
yeah but he asked for stats
sheppy_ [#27]Im not from the U.S but don’t your extra curricular matter more than your SAT score
depends on the college. UCs weigh GPA way more heavily than a lot of universities. but in general, extracurriculars do matter more yeah. you just kinda have to meet a baseline gpa first
gamr [#29]im not smart but yeah i have a 99% percentile score i think. most people i know get in between 1300-1500
dont sell yourself short gamr! everyone's a genius in their own way!

well im pretty damn good with science, mainly biology, but god damn im ass at math and economics and stuff.
gamr [#34]well im pretty damn good with science, mainly biology, but god damn im ass at math and economics and stuff.
i got good at math when i got out of high school lol. all of my teachers were fucking ass so i had to time out to relearn most concepts. i believe if u're really good at a subject tho u just need to apply that recipe to others and you'll be fine. math just requires extra practice n shit
sheahhhh [#19]well think about it like this
everyone has something they do for entertainment, other people are prob on utube 24/7 or another entertainment service, I choose vlr, vlr is just a trackable service so u feel that way
how do college applications work in the us? do you apply for a specific major, with separate queue, or all candidates are put in the same basket, choosing their major after acceptance?

DEATHMATCH STATS
mwzera - 86% win rate (thats the insaniest thing ive seen in a while)
cNed - stats not availiable
TenZ - 73% win rate
RANKED STATS
mwzera - 66.3% winrate (MVP of 95% of the matches) proof here https://imgur.com/StiJmpg
cNed - 53.5% winrate (MVP of 13% of the matches)
TenZ - 60.4% winrate (MVP of 15% of the matches)
can you take your time to appreciate how insane mwzera is? without a doubt the most talented player to ever touch the game
I'll try to explain briefly why I think he is the best player in the world
Despite his insane aim and movement
The best way to know if a player is a good duelist is RAZE. There is a BIG difference between a good duelist and a jett abuser
If he is a good duelist, he needs to be good with raze.
heat? not good with raze
aspas? not good with raze
xand? not good with raze
tenz? not good with raze
cned? not good with raze
scream? not good with raze
d3ffo? not good with raze
derke? not good with raze
Thats why I think he is undoubtely the best player in the world. If RIOT by any means decides to nerf jett and shift the meta we prolly not gonna even hear names like cned and tenz again :>
He is not killing 40+ per map because when he joined VK he was forced to play a different role because heat is already a main jett... and lets be honest, every single duelist nowadays gets 20+ kills per map because team and setups are basically built around you (even steel managed to get 20 kills with it https://www.vlr.gg/29398/sentinels-vs-100-thieves-champions-tour-north-america-stage-3-challengers-playoffs-gf/?game=46692&tab=overview)

LMAO i fucking feel that. all g tho. Regain time
moatz [#41]is merced or riverside considered better?
they're almost equal in terms of tradeoffs. merced is a new school but there's nothing to do since its in the middle of nowehere. ucr is more known as the reject school of uc's. but in terms of academics, neither are bad, things are just different when regarding campus life.
team_liquid_fan_v2 [#44]lmao why are all posts in this thread getting downvoted

Dear Admissions Committee,
I am writing to express my sincere interest in attending the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) as a prospective student for the upcoming academic year. As a student with a passion for learning, a 4.0 GPA, and a 1600 SAT score, I am confident that I have the academic background and drive necessary to thrive at UCLA.
In addition to my academic achievements, I am an avid gamer with a particular interest in the competitive video game, Valorant. I have dedicated many hours to practicing and honing my skills in this game, and have even competed in several online tournaments. While some may view gaming as simply a leisure activity, I see it as an opportunity to develop critical thinking skills, teamwork, and strategic planning abilities.
I am excited about the opportunity to bring my passion for gaming to UCLA, where I hope to find like-minded individuals who share my interests. I am particularly interested in exploring opportunities to collaborate with other students and faculty to develop new gaming-related initiatives and activities on campus.
In addition to my interest in gaming, I am also excited about the many academic and extracurricular opportunities available at UCLA. I am particularly interested in the computer science program and hope to pursue a degree in this field. I am also interested in exploring opportunities to participate in research projects and community service initiatives.
I believe that my academic achievements, passion for gaming, and desire to contribute to the UCLA community make me an excellent candidate for admission. I am committed to working hard, learning, and making meaningful contributions to the UCLA community. Thank you for considering my application.
Sincerely,
sheahhhh

Universities and their costs... one of the biggest scam in US. I make 6 figures at a large tech/game company with only high school and European Baccalaureat completed, since I moved to US after 21 (albeit, I didn't start with that pay, had to work my way to that for 4-5 years). There's absolutely no reason to take onto so much debt for 'higher education" (not that higher to be honest) if you're already smart. The only exception is if you wanna become a supers-pecialized employee (eg: doctor, lawyer, etc), which lets be real, only 1% of you will be.

i assume that you lived in europe before moving so you should know that in the EU university is free in some countries and in the others tuition fees are based on your income. that's why i dont think the concept of higher education is a scam it just depends on where you live

My comment was specifically for United States. Even at a low to mediocre "Community College" the course units (for less than a handful of classes) and manuals can take you up north of $25k/year, while any other "more prominent" university will be over 60k/year in tuition (not counting any other costs, such as housing, etc)
Europe is the exact opposite, indeed. Education is treated as education in Europe, not as a new racket for the rich boys.

6 figures isn't a lot in California, I know, I live here.
But guess what? It's better than having student loans of $200k+ while working miserable part-time jobs and trying to go to school in the same time.
Not everyone is lucky to get money from mommy and daddy. Some ppl actually have to work for their shit, I know, it's a weird concept for a lot of ppl here
