Cal Poly SLO: Agri/Environ. Sci vs. Business

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I’m currently a junior and I was wondering whether or not I should go into Environ. Science or Business. I don’t know where I stand on my chances into getting in percent wise.

Business has kind of been a safety major while environmental science and agriculture has been an interest (since I enjoy plants) My gpa is not that competitive (accumulative 3.87) and my ACT scores are lacking (around 25/26) Should I risk it? I’m planning on taking one or two science community college classes during the summer and interning for business related (maybe)
APS and honors classes (10-11):
AP Bio, AP Euro, AP Psych, AP English Lang, Chem Honors, English 2H
Planning on taking senior year (might not count idk):
AP Comp sci, AP Environmental Science, AP Stats(?), AP Econ

My first choice is cal poly slo and I know extracurriculars are not a major factor in deciding, but here are my extracurriculars:
3 years chamber orch, 3 years pit orchestra for musical, 1 year Activities coordinator for student leadership (SLC), 1 year club secretary for helping those in need, some work experience, and developing/selling official merchandise for an Internet podcast (this sounds weird, but trust me) There are other things I could put down but they aren’t as significant.

With these factors in mind, which one do you think I would excel in and what do you think is the definite acceptance rate for either of these majors.

@lowkeytotoro…try to get your ACT scores up if interested in Cal Poly SLO. I think the average ACTs for enrolled freshmen are hovering around 28-29 for College of Business and 26 for College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Science (and they have been going up slightly each year). See Cal Poly’s Fact Book Fall 2015 (www.ir.calpoly.edu).

@Redishwoods thanks, my math skills are weaker than the rest of them, but I think I can get it up before apps.
