<p>If 3.75 is fully-weighted (rather than UC GPA, which is partially-weighted), then I'll say "match to very, very slight reach" only on condition that you raise your SAT score. It'd be nice to know how many CS hours you got too.</p>

<p>i dont understand what your saying about gpa...</p>

<p>Three types of GPA: Weighted takes in account all AP, Honors extra GPA points. Unweighted does not take in account extra GPA points at all. UC GPA takes in account only UC accepted courses A-G (not including crap like Physical Education) and only takes into account extra points from 8 Honors/AP classes.</p>

<p>yeah my gpa is uc gpa..i excluded pe and health and that sorts of crap...
and i dont have any honor class and have only 5APs...(chem,bio,stats,euro,gov)</p>

<p>and thanks for reply...i really want to go to ucsd!!!</p>

<p>I'll say match if you raise your SAT to about 2000. And what about community service??!?</p>

<p>whats cs...?</p>

<p>not much...too be honest...about 20hours...</p>

<p>hmm, slight reach IMO.</p>

<p>But I have a question about UC GPA.
dnduswo says he has 5 APs
so would that be 10 (-2) extra points? Since the AP Class is two semesters?
Or is it still just 5 extra points?</p>

<p>i thought it can be up to 16semesters..</p>

<p>If thats the case, then my UC GPA is higher then I thought.
Hmm...</p>

<p>Oh, that's true. Haha it's only been months and I forgot already. (8 semesters only) After the revealing of the community service hours, I'll say slight reach too.</p>

<p>So hockeydemon, by you refering your own UC GPA, I take it that your still in HS. Why are you chancing dnduswo?</p>

<p>Ok, thanks Filabusta. UC GPA is the same :(
Try and get some community service hours.
Good Luck dnduswo</p>

<p>so my gpa is even lower than 3.75??</p>

<p>Based on what others said, I thought I may give my input and opinion.
Then again its true I don't really know. But yea, CS hours wouldn't hurt.</p>

<p>thanks...i thought ucsd is very good school for pre-dentistry other than ucla, but since ucla is too tough for me...ucsd is my first choice...</p>

<p>Your SAT needs to go up (like everyone else said...) Any community service??? Without any, I sure hope your SAT score goes up a whole lot. </p>

<p>Reach. Come back when your SAT score gets higher...</p>

<p>Yep everything at UCSD admissions is point-based. They assign numbers to frickin' everything. I'm surprised they don't just call us by our PID's there. </p>

<p>"How's it going A02827435? Oh, I'm great A293727432!!!! How's your girlfriend, A01984783?"</p>

<p>It's not like UCLA or Cal where 3 sob-story...ahem....heartfelt, sentimental essays can save the day.</p>

<p>A sob-story could you get you 300 points...</p>

<p>i didnt even know what kind of test sat was..</p>
