<p>In the main UC chance thread someone said I might not be even eligible because of my D and F in precalc junior year(I thought that it only meant you couldnt get credit for that class).There is no way that I can make that class up now but I meet every requirement including the math section (I have Alg 1(8th grade),Geometry Alg2, and AP stats:</p>

<p>I got in to a bunch of UCs with only Algebra II as my highest math. I had a D in the second semester of it my sophomore year and had to retake it second semester senior year. I got an A the second time around and UCs still let me in. I'm at Davis now. As far as I know, the precalc grade shouldn't matter as long as you've completed the other math requirements.</p>
<p>yeah thats what I was thinking because based on that guys logic if I had straight A's 9th-12thgrade (hypothetically) but I screwed up and got one F in a class that makes me ineligible?!?!?!</p>
<p>"Courses used to satisfy the "a-g" requirements in which the student earns D or F grades must be repeated with grades of C or higher. In a small number of instances, as described below, the D or F may be cleared through other means than repeating the course. The repeated grades are used in calculating the Scholarship Requirement GPA. Each course in which a grade of D or F has been received may be repeated only once. If a student repeats a course used to satisfy the "a-g" requirements in which he or she originally earned a grade of C or higher, the repeated grade will not be used in calculating the Scholarship Requirement GPA."</p>
<p>based off of their website i only wont get credit but no where does it say a D and/or F will make me ineligible.</p>
<p>You still have a good chance at UC admission. You can call the schools you are interested in applying to and ask them if you are eligible, they will be happy to tell you. Good luck. BTW, admissions people do not expect 14 and 15 year old kids to be perfect. Bad grades can happen to good students and the rest of your record shows you are a good student.</p>
<p>It doesn't make sense though because I know people who only had Algebra II and got into the UC.I basically have Algebra II but went on into Precalc after that and failed.I still have the 3 years of required math:</p>
<p>Algebra I (8th Grade)
Geometry (9th Grade)
Algebra II (10th Grade)</p>
<p>That's three math classes right there.</p>
<p>I'm taking AP Stats right now and it's a piece of cake,only reason why I have a C right now is because of a 0 on a test I still need to make up because I was absent that day.Can my stat class be used to fulfill the requirements???</p>
<p>I'm not looking at the higher or mid UC's...just Santa Cruz,Riverside, and Merced</p>
<p>UC faculty has also changed a rule regarding validation of lower level mathematics courses by the successful completion of statistics. Under the new rule, which will be implemented for students entering the University in the fall of 2007, successful completion of a statistics course will continue to validate Algebra 1 and Algebra 2, but will no longer validate geometry.</p>
