<p>I'm in my Senior year now, and really want to go to UCI for its community and bio program. Please read over my stats and perhaps give a few pointers. Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>WGPA: 3.36 (yeah looking back I was really stupid, I'm actually having a hard time sleeping because I think about this number every night)
SAT reasoning: 2150 (should I retake it and go for 2200+)?
SAT II: Biology:720 Math(lv 2):750 (will take literature in November
Activities: French Club president, will start working as lifeguard when school year starts, Internship at a children's hospital (I would say this is really hard to get into), swim team all four years</p>

<p>*would it be helpful if I explain about the problems I faced in school that result in such a low gpa, such as english is my third language, and I came to the U.S. 6-7 years ago?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance</p>

<p>if you write good essays about why ur gpa sucks, yeah you got a good shot</p>

<p>good sat score, horrible GPA but you can mask that with your essays</p>

<p>thanks for the advice
oh and is it really true that checking "undeclared" is better than stating my interested major right on?</p>

<p>just check your wanted major.</p>

<p>it's gonna waste ur time if u are undeclared.</p>
