<p>Just an FYI, UCLA is the one that focuses on evaluating by major GPA. Not Cal.
Because you have TAP, I think you gave a good chance for UCLA.
I’m not sure on Cal though.</p>

<p>The rest you should be good for.</p>

<p>Thanks OC native. I have a 3.7 right now but I am not optimistic about getting a good grade in Spanish 2. I think I will get either a B or C, and if it is the latter, I will have a 3.6. I have never received a C before and I am worried about the impact it will have on a counselor reviewing my transcript once he sees I screwed up in a class the same semester I submitted my application. Any thoughts?</p>

<p>Bump</p>

<p>Sorry this is totally off-topic to the answers you’re seeking, but how long did it take you to finish your pre-reqs and IGETC?</p>

<p>It took me three years : 0 little longer than the traditional student.</p>

<p>Oh cool, I attend SMC as well. I’m in the scholars program too! </p>

<p>I think you have an excellent shot at UCLA with TAP. I think you’ll be fine if you receive a C in your Spanish class; your GPA would still be pretty good and you have TAP on your side, a huge advantage. Good luck!</p>
