Am I on the right track for UCLA?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Los Angeles

<p>I'm in the second semester of my sophomore year.
9th grade first semester:
French1-A
PE-A
H English-A
H Geometry-A
H Biology-A
H World History-A
(second semester was basically the same thing except I received a B in Geometry)</p>

<p>I switched schools for my sophomore year.
Instruments-A
Music Tech-A
French2-A
PE-A
H English-A
Yearbook-A
H Chem-A
Algebra 2 (regular :[)-A
So far I think I have 50+ community service hours and I am taking AP Biology as a self study.
I really want to go to UCLA but I'm concerned because my new school doesn't have an AP system as strong as my previous school. And I don't want colleges that I apply to to think that I'm lazy or not "dedicated" since I switched to a school that doesn't offer an academic system as rigorous as my previous school. Also, I don't want colleges to think I'm lazy for only taking 3 academic classes (I took World History in 9th grade and if I stayed at my old school, I would've taken AP Euro, but my new school doesn't offer that and will not let me take a higher AP History class since I'm a sophomore)</p>

<p>Do you live in California or not? Its’ a little bit easier for CA residents to get in that non-CA residents, though the admission statistics are about the same. And I think you could redeem yourself your junior year if you take pretty rigorous classes.</p>

<p>It is common for students to start taking SATs beginning fall and spring of their junior year. Then retakes if necessary, fall of senior year. You can strategize when you will take them and begin studying accordingly.</p>

<p>Yes, you should consider taking all 5 academic, core subjects each semester, so make sure you add history next year.</p>

<p>If your school offers a crappy AP program, you may want to self-study some more APs or take classes at a local community college.</p>

<p>Also, the rigor of your courseload can be a bit stronger, but the grades of course are good.</p>
