<p>hey college confidential
hoping you guys could chance me for those schools above.
i have a 3.41 w gpa and a 1970 sat score (1860 first try) 580r 690m 700w and am hoping to get a 4.4 my first semester senior year
i already know that ucsb and uci are reaches but i have some decent extracurriculars and hoping maybe if i write a strong essay theres a chance? otherwise id really love to go to sdsu. my only concern is my gpa is lower than the mean accepted gpa for sdsu and they dont include writing for admissions (my best score) so im not sure ill get in.
Do you think these colleges will look at grade trends, what high school you went to and course rigor? my 10th and 11th grade year i took AP Bio, APUSH, Ap euro, honors precalc and regular english but i go to a very highly ranked public school.
be honest guys, i can take it</p>
<p>SDSU is getting pretty selective these days, but your SAT score should make up for the low GPA. Would call it a high match
Pomona - low match
CSULB - safety
UCR - match
UCI - reach
UCSB - reach</p>
<p>thanks bubbles, is there any chance they will look at a grade trend? also, if i am borderline on acceptance, they look at your first semester senior year but otherwise not?
thanks</p>
<p>anyone else?</p>
<p>anyoneee???</p>
<p>I think with your gpa Pomona could be a reach,</p>
