Thanks Gumbymom:) 3.9 is my unweighted GPA. I used to be top 10 in california, top 20 in US in tennis, and won a national tournament, but I got injured so all that is useless now for college:(( l I hope that I get in cuz I know I definitely have what it takes. When I really set my mind to stuff I am awesome lol. I got over 100% in calc a, b and over 100% overall in multivariable calc which I did pass/fail. I just wish I took more APs… . And the two B’s I got were 89’s that the teacher didn’t round.
-Should I have put undeclared as my major then for the UCs? Maybe it would have been better if I put my major as math and then later after I got into the college, try to switch into comp sci.
-Do your percentages factor in that my major is comp sci
-Is electrical engineering more impacted or cs
-I am also applying to HARVEY MUDD and GEORGIA TECH. water my chances for these plz?
Your chances are good to get into SDSU, and the lower UC. There is also a chance to get into both UCLA or Berkeley or just get into one. If your major is stem Georgia Tech would be low 60s most top schools want you to be in the top 1% at your school. Good Luck!!
If CS is your first choice, select that major. Switching majors later can be problematic, require a very high GPA in pre-req courses and is not guaranteed depending on schools.
