<p>@science say WHAT?! I’m really scratching my head right now</p>
<p>Yea exactly, I see people with 3.3 GPA getting in and THEY WOULD REJECT ME. I got into UCSB and I am waiting on DAVIS/BERK/UCLA now. *sigh</p>
<p>Can you think of ANY reasons as to why they would reject you though…?</p>
<p>Perhaps because he doesn’t/won’t have his pre-reqs completed on time in a very competitive major.</p>
<p>Yeah, because Bio is one of the few impacted majors at SD. It says it clearly on the website that you have to finish all the prereqs.</p>
<p>Missing prerequisites + impacted major</p>
<p>biology is insanely impacted at ucsd</p>
