Chance at UCSD?

<p>UCSD: Reach</p>

<p>What UC's do you think i'll get accepted into if my Jr and Sr year I get all A's in the classes I listed, SAT eng and bio scores of at least 700, and a kinda crappy sat score, like 1900 or so?</p>

<p>For UCSD, Third time I've posted this:</p>

<p><a href="http://admissions.ucsd.edu/dev3/info/comreview.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://admissions.ucsd.edu/dev3/info/comreview.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Link to UCSD's criterion for the admissions to the class of 2011. You'll know your chances a lot better from estimating points from that sheet and asking UCSD what the class of 2010's average point total was.</p>

<p>Sorry about the double post.</p>

<p>Anyway, take the ACT, who knows you'll quite possibly do much better on the ACT than the SAT I, as I did.</p>

<p>I heard SAT looks better than ACT on your college application</p>

<p>Not for the UCs, they have a conversion of the ACTs to the SATs, as they are considered the same.</p>

<p>Great link there, Golden Bear--the best explanation I've ever seen for what is and is not considered for admission to a particular UC.</p>

<p>Should I take both the SAT and the ACT and just send in the better score? But how would I know which is better because they are graded on a diffrent point scale.</p>

<p>Maybe I should take another AP net year(physics) and aim for all A's...it will be alot of work, about 8 hours of hw a night plus studying stuff from AP classes afterwards...I start hw about 3 in the afternoon so I probably wont be going to sleep till like 12 PM, and waking up again at 6 AM. Or do you think I should go to USF first and then just transfer to UCSF who has the best pharmacy school in America (As you can see, I want to go into pharmacy) What do you guys think I should do?</p>

<p>You cannot transfer into UCSF. UCSF is a graduate only school. They will only accept applicants that have graduated a 4-year institution. </p>

<p>So, since it is impossible to transfer into UCSF, you can either go to USF, graduate with good grades and then apply to UCSF. Or you can apply to a good Pre-Pharmacy Program at UoP (University of the Pacific) which has a guarateed program into its top Pharmacy School if you stay in the program.</p>

<p>Yea, I know UCSF is a grad school, what I meant was going to USF and then afterwards going to UCSF, but I dont think im gonna do that now, i've heard its extremly hard. Either I will go to UoP or a UCSD tag school than to UCSD.</p>

<p>But when you say guranteed program at UoP, does that mean even if you dont have a great PCAT score you will still get in?</p>

<p>And how hard is it to get accepted into UoP? Do you think I will be able to get in if I take the classes I stated in my first post and get all A's?</p>

<p>Also, do you think with the stats I stated in my first post, will I be able to get into University of Michigian (is not a Michigian resident)</p>

<p>i would shoot for UCSD. i dont know about USF or U of P, but i do not think they is held in near as high regard as UCSD. I would also imagine a good GPA out of UCSD would count for a lot more in graduate admissions to UCSF than a USF or U of P degree. But either way, it is important to maintain a high GPA to be considered for UCSF graduate school.</p>
