<p>APPLIED: UCLA UCB UCSD and UCD
GPA: 3.76 (I received all A in my pre-reqs class, got Bs in the GE classes :[
MAJOR: Statistics
Pre-reqs: complete by spring
EC: very little because i work 40 hours a week , will this affect me a lot since i dont have any EC other than working</p>
<p>I'm really interested in UCB AND UCLA, What are my chances for them? is statistics an impacted major at these schools? I'm really worried about my EC.</p>
<p>i dont think they really care about EC's a lot, just gpa and pre-reqs. </p>
<p>i dunno if stats is impacted, but you have a decent shot.</p>
<p>The average ADMIT GPA for UCLA Statistics last year was 3.46. You are well above that, so I'd say you have a great chance at both UCLA and Berkeley.</p>

UCLA</a> Undergrad Admissions: Profile of Admitted Transfer Students by Major, Fall 2008</p>
<p>In at UCLA unless something bizarre happens</p>
<p>In at UCSD and UCD</p>
<p>Ucla likes work experience over ECs. UCSD and UCD do not really consider ECs and work experience will be a huge plus</p>
<p>I do not know the statistics for UCB that well. They do not admit by major like UCLA.</p>
<p>According to UC statfinder, mathematics and statistics have very high admit rates...but i would imagine math majors probably drive that admit rate up because no one wants to do it.</p>
<p>but Id say that you are probably in at Cal</p>
<p>tcsgurl, </p>
<p>Responding to what you said about not really having EC's due to working...just so you know, working 40 hours per week is considered an excellent EC especially if you maintain really good grades.</p>
<p>UCLA likes work experience over EC's? Is it for this particular major or a generalized statement (applies to other majors as well)?</p>
<p>This is their personal criteria aside from grades and stuff that they look at. Work Experience is the 1st thing listed,. UCLA</a> Undergraduate Admissions and Relations with Schools: Transfer Admission</p>
<p>Personal Criteria</p>
<pre><code>* Employment while attending school
* Family responsibility
* Returning to school where early grades are not indicative of strong academic performance
* Ongoing involvement in campus organizations, student government, community service, or clubs
* Circumstances that may have prevented students from achieving their highest overall academic performance
* Military service

<p>In my essay i wrote about 4 out of the 6 things listed :)</p>
<p>Thanks for that info Malishka.</p>
<p>And kissingurami, working while attending school IS an EC. "extra" (outside) "curricular" (school).</p>
