- A UC Berkeley computer science major brings you through a day of college life. Thank you Blinkist for sponsoring this video! The first 100 people to go to www.blinkist.c... are going to get unlimited access for 1 week to try it
out. You’ll also get 25% off if you want the full membership.
If you're new here - Hi! my name is Chris Jereza. I like making fun vlogs about Silicon Valley, software engineering careers, self-development, and lifestyle design. I'm a current student at Cal (as of the posting of this video) and I've recently done SWE internships at companies like Google, Facebook, Lyft, Bloomberg, and Amazon. Make sure to subscribe for more videos!
Check out Edward Sa's channel here: / ingeniousedits
And Meredith Mao's channel here: / @meredithmao
In this vlog, I talk about why Computer Science students often don't go to class (definitely not because I'm lazy right?), show you around Cal's campus, explain my homework assignment for my Combinatorics/Probability class, debate Shake Shack vs. In N Out, and use way too much copyrighted music. This video was inspired by John Fish and Elliot Choy.
My schedule for the day (in case you were wondering):
12pm - History 124A in Dwinelle Hall
2pm - Gender & Women's Studies 102 in Birge Hall
5pm - CS 174 in Soda Hall
IF YOU'RE READING THIS comment, "You didn't really answer the 'Shake Shack or In N Out' question"

Chris Jereza yesssss
Bruh I work in South SF and I don’t get off until then 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Will try and be there
I love u man...u r really cool....u really try to make ur video funny and aware us realistically at the same time....keep up bro...lov from Nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
Wr r u from?
My roommate is CS and he is literally never home always studying. Rip cs kids at Cal.
Is he Asian
I'm from India and our college starts from 9pm till 5 pm with break only at 11:00 to 11:15 and at 1:15 to 1:45 .Also we have lecture for 1:30 hours extending upto 2 hours each.This is nothing compared with our Indian student Life.Should I cry or laugh .

tom111 yep lol i don’t envy him tho ;)
Sumeeth Moolya you can make it as challenging as you want. Some students at cal just breeze through and not have to study hard, others do poorly and don’t really care about GPA, others work their asses off all night and get only a few hours of sleep. I have a feeling that is how it is at every university. School is hard af no matter where you are :)
You are a sharp personification of : “Work smart, not hard.” Your content is fire, wishing you lot of success in your life and career goals. 💪🏻
but how?
The most relatable part of this video is that toothpaste segment 👌 😅
Also, seeing those probability assignments is bringing back nightmarish memories.
clicked on this vid with low expectations and stayed for the great editing and chill personality. nice job, instant like :)
Hey! Thanks so much, I really appreciate this ☺️
Chris Jereza np dude! I’ve been binge watching your channel at 2:00 A.M because I suddenly thought about college 😂😂
Ur editing skills are too good. Keep it up,man!
Can you please make a video on how to solve a question from leet code or any other place? Like u take a question, and show us how you approach it and solve it. That would really help someone like me who is trying hard but isn't getting results. And I love your work .
Yup! I have some other things on the to do list first, but I'm definitely planning on making one of these!
quality quality video brother :) They just keep getting better and better!
Chris the kind of guy to do a full day of work, go to class, finish a project, go to the gym, go out with friends, thoroughly apply 8 facial cleansers and at the end say "I was lazy today"
Assuming this is accurate, this has really calmed by fears of attending UC Berk. Thank you
Omg are you Matt Jereza?!
Omg are you TechLead??
@@ChristopherJereza did you heart your own comment?
@@ChristopherJerezaomg are you both 🙋
@@ChristopherJereza no he is Elliot choy🤷🏻♂️ duh!🤷🏻♂️
one of the best berkeley vlogs good work dude
Always glad to see a new video came out.
Always glad to see you commenting on it!
2:00 that is true at my uni as well. could see way too many people attending CS courses at the very beginning but later... nobody at lecture...
Did not think I would enjoy this video for whatever reason but I was pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong. Looking forward to more of your stuff.
I'm smashing the like button for sure !!
Shout out from Switzerland, I love your content bro !
0:52 I always hear apple alarms but this is the first time I'm hearing the google pixel alarm I use and I'm getting flashbacks of waking up to it
I enjoy watching your videos, it's very interesting to see the lives of other Comp Sci TH-camr people here in the Bay. Keep up the great work man 👍
intro: student walks over berkeley seal
chris: gO BeArS
The vibe of your videos is so nice and chill. I'm a fan :)
I love how Edward was your personal cameraman LOL what a homie
Edward swaggin in the Sac Hacks Hackathon t-shirt.
Great production quality & content as typical Chris. And I dig the sponsor, it's actually valuable. Everything on point.
You're such a very disciplined and extremely talented human being!
Hey Chris i want to learn CS and i want to study at UC Berkeley and the only applying method i know is only through common app and UC Berkeley don’t use common app and i’m not in US and anything you can help me through
2 years later, how that internship went buddy??(I’m actually downloading that app from the ad lol the video was great), rn I’m in community college and planning to transfer to Berkeley, meanwhile I do english papers about why is a better idea to invest the next years truly learning useful stuff about my career through internet than putting myself in 10 year debt for that nice fancy paper👍🏻🦔
me: how many a day in the life he's going to do next, at this rate he might actually do a year-
chris: *vlogs furiously*
This comment is 10/10 😂😂😂
Im an IT student, My college has an attendance policy where if you miss more than 6 classes youre cut from the program.
This video was super high quality
thank you, i appreciate it
So good man! And lol how they didn't let you film in class 😂
Carrying a Facebook handbag and wearing a Lyft backpack -- straight up flexing
I'm in community college rn. UC Berkeley is one of my reeeaaachhhh schools. If not then I would just go to SJSU then study on my own. :)
I love your day in the life vids!
Thank you - I love your comments!
omg ur blowing up!!! ily
Hi Camilla!!! ILY
Hahahaha "and try to look like John Fish" XDDDDD that part killed me XD
So, it sounds like he is in a 2nd year CS discrete math course or something similar, which is one of my favorite courses. Especially when you're learning stuff like dijkstra's algorithm.
That sponsor plug was so clean
great video chris. However, i am very disappointed that you didn’t link your spotify
Smoothest plug I've ever seen
nice video! what camera do you use for vlogging?
dude, do you film on 120fps and editing on a 24fps sequence or smth? it's just coz i notice the frames are a little bit choppier than usual if that makes any sense haha
Woah this was such a good catch - what should I be doing instead? You actually win "most helpful TH-cam commenter" :O
@@ChristopherJereza not sure if you're being sarcastic or not HAHAHA but in case you aren't, this video might help, it's by PotatoJet and I just saw it a few days ago th-cam.com/video/e6HZPmSlS5c/w-d-xo.html
but I think the "choppy" frames you're getting is a sacrifice to make for having those sick slow motion clips
see y'all in the *Day in a life of a Google Intern 😞✌🏻*
HAHAHA thank u for your comments, they're what's getting me through all this cringe
thank you for actually talking about your day!
youtube grind is really paying off nice work
What is the model of your LG monitor?
I understood everything you said about your homework class. I took discrete structures I and II and for the coin one, just use the binomial theorem probability formula.
What’s the social life like at Berkeley? Interested in comparing it to UCLA, as if i’m fortunate enough to get into either, that’d be good to know
wish me luck my 61a midterm is in literally an hour lmao
F. How'd it go?
Damn bro. You’re no shortage energy, nice edit 👌
Hey bro i want to know that how much maths is required for ms in computer science....plz bro tell me ...
Berkeley doesn’t have BSCS...what do you major in???
How often do you clean your room?
Not often enough
looking forward to your video that talks about your 12 weeks intern in Google~ is it the "STEP" program? I'm a 2024 who may also major in math/CS/DS
Hey! You're doing a great job! Keep up
9:00 I believe the answer is 0.3635. Anyone know if that's right?
Ya that's approx
Yay Chris! I really liked this one c:
Thanks hana! Ilyyy
You didn't really answer the 'Shake Shack or In N Out' question
EXPOSED
“you are actually going to die and you are right” 😂😂😂 12:38 had me deceased
Please help me understand... why do a History , Women studies for a CS degree? Confused 🤷♂️
Really great videos man love ur videos keep it up 👍
Quick, maybe dumb question: Can you become a software engineer with a CS degree? Bc there are SE majors out there, and I’m leaning towards wanting to become a SE, but I also want to be broad with my skillset and am choosing to major in CS. Is that alright?
Yup! Actually CS is the most popular major by far for software engineers and is usually the recommended path.
Chris Jereza Awesome! I can’t even begin to tell you how relieving that is to hear. Thank you so much :D
What kind of laptop do you recommend for computer science???
Do you have "actual classes" (like 20 or so students) at Berkeley or just lectures?
How is the social scene effected by people not going to class?
Love the music choice😍
Thank you!!!
love your content, man!!
Thank you!
I am so confused, I literally just saw a video saying you dropped out
Great Video Chris, just want to ask if you are a Filipino? Thanks,
Hope the combinatorics is going well. It's definitely a notorious class here at Virginia Tech
drop the playlist tho
How is uc Berkeley eecs if compared with ivy league schools
What kind of camera do you use??
Sony A6400! Check out the link in the description
where did your soundbud curve go??
I wish I knew - I lost them LOL send help
Great vid my friend
hi crist, i really love uc berkeley, next year i will graduated as a bachelor of computer science, i hope i can be master student of computer science on berkeley heheh.... btw i really enjoy on your vlog, keep spirit
What year are you at Berkeley and how many classes are you taking this year?
Great Video !
Thank you!!!
Is CS harder than Industrial engineering?
0:31 yeah Chris is a man...
Very informative..
How to think like a programmer and also data scientist?
Can you make a video on how you started trading stocks? I think a lot of college students would be interested in how you got into investment.
"thats when everyone does their vlogs" LOL
Legit vid! Would love to see a workout routine vid you do, cause your abs are killer
thanks for sharing you really got the point
My classes started at 9 o'clock in the morning.I just came back from Electrical Engineering lab .it's 6:20 o'clock in the evening..tommorow is my Calculas exam ..i am gonna die :)
computer science and Engineering (CSE) makes me dumb :3
Where at? I'm trying to do CSE too but they dont have it here at indiana tech. I'm doing cs. What's the difference?
we used to go hang out in the 2nd Floor Evan's building pretty much everyday to play internet games against students at other universities. also in soda hall (CSUA lounge, computers) . no one studied at home or in the dorms. we did our homework there then head out to eat chinese food at 1am on shattuck.
Can u make a video about how u got into Berkeley and like ur stats and stuff?
Sure!
Love your content haha, you’re going to be big !!!
I appreciate the support! Working on it 😁 stay tuned for more
Big what ? Big channel, subscribers or viewers ? When you write comment or something like this you must write it out specifically.
I like this. I'm subscribing!
Welcome to the channel Cindy!
what's the title of the bgm at 1:00?
Yessss the Bryson Tiller intro!! 🥰
your content and edition is amazing ;)
Thank you so much!!!
Damn, as a 3rd year engineering student myself I find your day more lively than my entire week. wtf
Everything just becomes more lively when you know you're gonna add jump cuts, color grading, transitions, and background music LOL
@@ChristopherJereza Fair enough! May have to counter this video with a dull, geeky and straightforward video of my own!
Love your content , so coool
Do you have a music playlist ?
Yup! I made this one: open.spotify.com/user/chris7624/playlist/6T5DwwPuxVY16Lw0IYUgFw?si=k7SE_PUyRV-GXYwoi5krbA
Lmk what u think!
these are hella fun bro. big s/o
Dude you'r sooo cool like coolest tech guy i've ever seen.
Video suggestion: Apple v. PC for coding, essential tools/software, and of course with the "UC Berkeley CS" or "Lyft, Bloomberg, Facebook" click bait
Thanks for keeping it real
What computer do you recommend for a Comp Sci Major?
MacBook pro
Keep posting man. College can be alittle busy I run a channel as well and I give you props to have a balanced life.
What's good Bmartin Gaming 😂 nice to see you here. Every. Single. Time. Yeah it's definitely rough but I'll try my best!!
@@ChristopherJereza yeah I love the content and happy to know you reply to me all the time.
can't wait for the day I see you on campus dude
Yo we're doing a meetup tomorrow! 4pm on the glade
