So Davis and UCSB are my top choice schools at the moment, but it seems like I probably didn’t get into Cal Poly Slo so now I’m really freaked out for UC decisions (I also applied to UCI, UCSC, UCR, UCSD, and UCLA). Let me know what you think:)
Weighted GPA: 4.2
UW GPA: 3.9 (received one B and two C’s in my math class junior year. Bad, I know. I did, however, explain in my essays how a personal struggle I faced during my junior year caused a slip in my math grades. All other grades are A’s).
UC GPA (capped): 4.1
UC GPA (uncapped): 4.17

I’ve gotten into a few safeties (Oregon State, University of Oregon, University of Minnesota, University of Arizona) but I’m really hoping for UC’s for cost reasons+location reasons+I just really like Davis and SB
