<p>The reason I wasn’t able to enroll into the TAG program is because I was completing an IGETC requirement during the Fall semester. I’m keeping my fingers crossed but I know I need to be realistic, thanks for the rating; much appreciated.</p>
<p>uhhhhhhhhhhhhh</p>
<p>theDK, i still don’t understand why you didn’t sign a TAG…IGETC only needs to be completed by the spring prior to transfer, you could have still signed a TAG (am i mistaken?)</p>
<p>652316541, I was told by the counselors at my CC that I could not sign up for TAG unless my MATH 10 (Statistics) course had been completed prior the fall semester. That course was in progress for me at the time therefore I didn’t have the opportunity. Was I misinformed by my campus counselors?</p>
<p>[UC</a> Irvine Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) Fall 2009](<a href=“http://www.admissions.uci.edu/admissions_info/transfer_admission/tag.html]UC”>http://www.admissions.uci.edu/admissions_info/transfer_admission/tag.html)</p>
<p>In that case, they were correct. If you were taking your first uc transferable math class in the f08 semester, you would have been denied a TAG.</p>
<p>If you had taken a UCtrans math class or had an AP Calc exam of 3 or higher, I’m pretty sure you could have gotten a TAG.</p>
<p>probably the former though…i’m guessing that the Math 10 class was your first math class at cc</p>
<p>652316541, it was in fact my first transferable math course. Trust me, I know how counselors are prone to mistakes, I must have walked in and out of their offices at least 3 times a week revising forms, courses, credits, and GPAs with them seemingly getting different numbers from the various counselors every time. You had me worried, I wish I could have been a TAG student. 
What about you? What are your plans?</p>
<p>academically, well I plan on transferring to UC <em><a href=“fill%20in%20the%20blank”>U</a></em> with a major of psychology. But I’m thinking about changing my major to Biology/Chemistry for 2 reasons.
- I just took both and with my new found motivation and study skills I got A’s in both series and I found them really interesting
- I’m thinking about going into a health related field (not medicine, I can’t stand death, urine, stool, hospitals, or sick people that i don’t know)…so if anyone knows of a good health related field that isn’t in medicine, where you get money, respect, and you get to help ppl… let me know </p>
<p>but yeah…if that’s not what you ment by "What about you? What are your plans?…sorry to have bored you ;)</p>
<p>yeah, and counselors suck don’t they…there is like 1 good one at each school and it takes a semester to get an appointment with them.
I had to go to like 7 different counselors until I found one that knew what the hell he was talking about.</p>

<p>Chance me?</p>
<p>Your GPA might not dazzle, but if you get in, your EC’s will be the thing that put you over the top.</p>
<p>UCLA Av admit GPA was 3.65 for PolSci. But if your essay is as good as you say, i think you have a 7/10 chance at B and an 8/10 chance at LA.</p>
<p>chance me back</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>OOOH. Thank you!! 
But I was a bit scared because I took all easy(?) classes, according to my sister.</p>
<p>^ 9/10 UCB, 9/10 UCLA</p>
<p>BTW, I have all prereqs done for both schools ! :-D</p>
<p>edit:
Chance for either of us to get into both is limited probably to 2/10 each.</p>
<p>Also, I think for me, UCB us more likely than UCLA, as UCLA is VERY impacted, and will consider GPA over essays, while UCB will take wildcards based on connections and essays…</p>
<p>Wow, you guys have awesome stats! [: Good luck to all of you! </p>
<p>@ pinker …hahaha. You’re awesome! P.S.-I’m sorry, I thought you were a girl for the longest time…xDDDDD. >__<;;;</p>
<p>haha well he does have “pink” in his name, it brings out his feminine side</p>
<p>I guess no one listens to Pink Floyd? </p>
<p>btw Pinker, the rising GPA trend and 2 C’s are so similar to my story. The main difference I guess is .03 higher rofl. The strong attributes of my application are: Came back after quitting CC, work + school, finished UCLA + IGETC + UCLA/Cal Pre-reqs as of Fall 08, and the rising trend in GPA.</p>
<p>Major: Biology…3.95
Applied to UCLA, CAL, UCSD, UCI
All four still pending :(…lots of extracurriculars/cultural experiences
Good essays (or so I think)
What are my chances of getting in???</p>
<p>I have heard of the band, but that wasn’t the reason why. LOL. </p>
<p>@ saba, relax. [: UCSD (and I’m sure UCI) don’t want another “glitch” if you know what I mean. I would rather wait then get some glitch e-mail…that would be sooo terrifying. >__<;;</p>
<p>UCLA (Global Studies,) CAL (Peace and Conflict Studies)</p>
<p>GPA: 3.71

prereqs: done except for one at UCLA
TAP Certified for UCLA
Honors Program completion @ OCC
Essays: 8/10, edited by a lit prof.
EC: Tons of work, poll site manager, studied in Paris, etc., etc.
Upward Trend as far as GPA </p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>PACS is such an interesting field. I’m definitely considering it as a minor or possible double major if I get into Cal.</p>
<p>I agree! Now let us just hope we have that option!</p>
<p>Fa sho. Best of luck to your jdecker, I hope the only trouble you have with your admissions is deciding between UCLA and Cal.</p>
