<p>chibi_loopi if your with tap and poi sci I think your in the ball park your fine. in my case however, imagine how frustrated, disappointed, and very absurd I feel of myself to have listened to my stupid counselor at my school for not taking tap and it comes from “supposedly” a very good CC, which is SMC. Look I am going to be done with all my prereqs I have a solid GPA, I wrote pretty goods essays, oright extracurriculars, and I know that with that damm TAP I am in. Oh no! if I get rejected to UCLA this will be one of the reasons since yes I ve also seen people with 3.1 and all prereqs done get in with TAP. why didn’t I get to know this site last year for god sake, all my fault, and if I do get rejected I have to move on in life. I wish you and everyone else luck.</p>
<p>^ The counselors at SMC never mentioned TAP to me at all until I brought it up myself and took the initiative to visit the scholars office. </p>
<p>Also, when I asked them if I could join the program if I was applying this November, one of the TAP counselors straight up told me no because I would have to take my 5 honors classes by this fall. It took more research and asking around on my part to find out that some people before me were able to complete (although not easily) 5 honors courses in one semester and that some honors courses were available during the summer as well. </p>

<p>amazing what can I do now, its what it is. how would you see my chances with the stats I posted? In finishing prereqs global studies and 3.75 gpa no tap though? whats your major? and your going to smc this semester?</p>
<p>that’s sad, why are counselors so ■■■■■■■■?</p>
<p>why? well because they suck, I just hope I still get in. my stats aren’t bad and I have over an average gpa admit for my major, let’s hope for the best</p>
<p>chibi poli sci is impacted but i dont think they take prereqs as seriously as for bus econ majors. you still have a %95+ chance with tap…</p>
