<p>I'm white and I come from a rich community. I will not be applying for financial aid. My essay is about being obsessive-compulsive and how it's made me good at math. both my teachers giving me recommendations adore me.</p>

<p>Help anyone? I'm freaking out!</p>

<p>I can only speak for the UC’s and over there you are looking great. I would be surprised if you didnt get into berkeley and ucla</p>

3

<p>so you think the low gpa freshman/sophmore year won’t hurt me much? since i got my act together eventually…</p>

4

<p>is the 3.9 weighted or unweighted?</p>

<p>and uc’s do not look at freshman grades at all. So that should help you out a lot</p>

5

<p>weighted… yeah i got like a 3.3 freshman year so even getting well over a 4.0 last year didnt bring me over a 4.0 overall. it sucks. my weighted gpa for just 10-12 is a 4.1 though</p>

<p>the UC’s for sure!!! But keep in mind, freshman and sophomore year ARE important. Maybe not as important as junior and senior year, but they are still defintely important!</p>
