During the summer of 2025, I had the privilege of experiencing authentic college life at Berkeley as a pre-college scholar. I studied and lived alongside peers from across the United States and around the world, successfully completing two Berkeley undergraduate courses and earning valuable college credits.

 

Outside of class, I actively participated in various campus activities and weekend excursions, which gave me a more comprehensive understanding of university life.

 

The two undergraduate courses I selected were Environmental Earth Science and Global Environmental Change. These courses not only satisfied my thirst for knowledge but also challenged my academic abilities, allowing me to explore potential majors. I earned grades of A+ and A. This experience proved immensely rewarding and provided greater clarity about my future academic path.
