From what I heard they have this thing called a priority waitlist and people off that list have a decent chance...so just gotta wait for the mail and see if they give us a priority waitlist option :\ | ||

For SCS or CIT, it's effectively zero. Even with that said I know I'm going to pay the deposit/whatever. I'm just not expecting anything. It feels terrible to not live up to the standards of other Intel STS Semifinalists. | ||

The former is hardware and the latter is software, so even though the departments are usually the same, the two fields are still very different from each other...right? Which are you? EE/CS are grouped into one major at Berkeley (at least in the College of Engineering; Letters and Science only has pure CS and the courseload is slightly different), as well as a number of other institutions. In a practical sense, the two are closely related, but in general people choose to focus on one discipline or the other. I have a basic understanding of circuits, but my major focus is CS. I do know people who are definitely jack-of-all-trades-ish in the sense that they are very well learned in both EE and CS, but those people tend to be among the most brilliant (and hard working) and are fairly rare (at least in undergrad). | ||

That happened to my salutatorian last year, of 14 schools 11 wait listed her probably because she had steller stats and nothing else. As I far as I can tell, no one knows where she goes now | ||

Wow I'm really sorry you didn't get into cmu, I don't have the intel award and you have higher test scores =\ I remember my brother was an intel semifinalist and a siemens semifinalist as well and he eventually went to MIT... | ||
