<p>I just got back my ACT scores, and I'm having a panic attack.
I'd really like to go to UCSD... but their average ACT score is 30, and I got a 29 (That darn science section :) )
I am hoping that the admissions team will be really nice... but if you could be honest about my chances and what I need to do, that would be greatly appreciated! </p>
<p>Here are my "stats", I'll only mention my Honors and AP courses, because everything else is a regular required course.</p>
<p>-Freshman year: English I H, Algebra 2 H, Global Studies H.
-Sophomore Year: English II H, Trig/Precalc H (I got a B+ first semester, and an A of some sort second), Chemistry H
-Junior Year: English 3 AP, Biology AP, French III H, Calculus AB AP (B first semester, second semester: TBD)
-Senior Year (Which is obviously to be completed, but here are the courses I'm planning to take): Calculus BC AP, English IV AP, French IV AP, and possibly Physics H or AP (I want to take regular physics, but rumor has it that students taking calculus BC are "convinced" to take AP). </p>
<p>I should mention that I'd like to study Biology (and French, if that makes any difference).</p>
<p>*I hope I don't come off as hoity-toity about my score and classes... I would just really like to know what my chances are and what I can do to improve them. Thank You!</p>
