<p>Firstly, UCs won’t ask how much volunteer hours you did on the app. They just want to know how much time and what you did in an extracurricular.</p>
<p>Example:
Years You Did
_Fresh _Soph _Junior _Senior
Track&Field
Weeks/Yr: 11 Hrs/Week: 6
I am a 400 m sprinter</p>
<p>Secondly, I’m pretty sure you can get into all UCs. I got into UCSD with a 3.7 GPA, 1830 SAT, 790 US/640 Math. Just make sure your essay is excellently written from your heart.</p>
<p>Thirdly, if you do get into all UCs. Pick your poison between the top 3 (if you want to get into any of them) because Cal being ranked #1 by news sources isn’t #1 in all fields. Each UC is best in a certain field. UCSD seen as 3rd best is #1 in bio sciences (or just sciences in general as my older brother (Class of 09) put it. )</p>
<p>EDIT: “I had a HUGE upward trend, so im sure that helps.” You should write something about that in your essays.</p>
<p>Thanks Alot, this really helped me feel better :D</p>
<p>I got a question about the UC GPA. UCs did not add additional points to all honors classes. In my school, only AP classes could have extra points. So, I am not sure about Chem H, Spanish 4H, and Pre-Calc H. You should check it on UC Doorway to confirm it.</p>
<p>[University</a> of California Doorways Home](<a href=“http://www.ucop.edu/doorways/]University”>http://www.ucop.edu/doorways/)</p>
<p>Also, some majors are harder to get in, especially engineering. </p>
<p>I do believe that you have fair chance to get into UCSD and UCLA. You need to write something that is impressive in your essay.</p>
<p>Uh oh, I made some major grammatical mistakes on my last post… xD</p>
<p>IMO, fair would be understatement if he wrote superb essays. I believe he has great chances because I was accepted into UCSD with much lower test scores. Berkeley, probably fair, but that will depend on the quality of his essays. </p>
<p>Bobby, your essays are very crucial to your application, especially for the top 3 UCs. They are what separates you from the other applicants, the ones who have the same or better records.</p>
<p>EDIT: BTW, UCs do not count PE. Don’t ever put it on your application.</p>
<p>Ok SO. that makes my 10th grade average as 3.1 … 
So Capped average is 3.8
and uncapped is 3.885.
Does anyone know what UC is uncapped? besides UCLA and UCB.
I want to get into the medical field.
Will i still have a chance with my “new” gpa?</p>
<p>Only UCLA and UCB is uncapped. All other UC’s are capped.</p>
<p>I think you have a chance, but you need to write a good essay (personal statement).</p>
<p>You have already finished SAT I and II. You can start to write it in this summer. You have more advantages than the others like me. I still need to catch up with those scores.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot “ipajoneskk” 
:D:D:D Yea i am going to start next week.</p>
<p>I also know how to perform First Aid and CPR.</p>
