<p>My freshman year was okay, but sophomore was bad. I really brought up my grades junior year though. I have a personal reason for my sophomore year that I mentioned in my essay</p>

<p>Freshman: 3.67/3.67 (two B's)</p>

<p>Sophomore: 3.42/3.42 (four B's unweighted) 3.57/3.57 (four B's, weighted)</p>

<p>Junior: 3.83/3.83 (one B, unweighted) 4.3/4.3 (one B, weighted)</p>

<p>Soph and Junior combined GPA: 3.58 unweighted/ 3.92 weighted</p>

<p>I got straight A's my first semester of Senior year (4.64!)</p>

<p>SAT: 1970 (I know I know, I'm not retaking.)</p>

<p>by Senior Year I'll have taken these AP/Honors classes</p>

<p>Honors Chem
Honors Physics
Honors English III
Honors Pre Calc
AP Bio
AP Gov/Econ
AP English Literature
AP Caluclus AB</p>

<p>My school doesn't have very many AP's, and I wasn't offered an AP my sophomore year. So the only AP I took a test for was AP Bio, and sadly I got a 2 :/ How will that affect me?</p>

<p>EXTRA CURRICULARS</p>

<p>I play Varsity Lacrosse (4 years)
President of UNICEF club
Chairperson of CSF(California Scholarship Federation)
President of Multi Cultural Club

<p>I want to major in Neuroscience and do PreMed</p>

<p>Chance me at: UCSD, UCLA, UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara.
UC Davis is the goal</p>

<p>I live in California, I'm first gen, and I'm 100% Afghan</p>

<p>I think my EC's are great (correct me if I'm wrong). I had personal issues that I'll explain in my essay for sophomore year, but the upper trend will improve my chances right??</p>

<p>bump omg i need help</p>

3

<p>Omg I’m half afghan :slight_smile: your ec’s are great! What was your test scores?</p>

4

<p>@mockingjay0714 Thank you! That’s what I’m riding on haha, and all I have is a 1970 on the SAT</p>

5

<p>I think you have a chance for Davis. LA is going to be a reach. Btw, by first gen, do you mean first gen college student or first gen american?</p>

6

<p>@classof2018app I’m both haha</p>

7

<p>oh ok that will help. I’m not sure how race or first generation American plays a role in UC’s (I’m also from Iran, moved here when I was 13), since Affirmative Action got struck down. However, first generation college student is a solid hook and will help your case.</p>

8

<p>bumppppppppp</p>

9

<p>I think you have a good chance granted that your essays were good.</p>

<p>UCSD: High Match
UCLA: Reach
UC Davis: High Match
UC Irvine: Match
UC Santa Barbara: Match</p>

<p>Why is UC Davis your goal? UCSD has the #1 Behavioral Neuroscience program in the country with UCLA not too far behind.</p>

<p>Chance me back please!
