Hello everybody,
I am planning to apply to transfer this Fall 2017. My major is Biochemistry or Molecular Cell Developmental Biology and I currently have a GPA of 3.51. I have 12 units this summer which I am sure will boost my GPA to hopefully at least a 3.60. I have approximately 20 more units these next two semesters, which will boost my GPA significantly, but I am aware that the university will not see those grades until my application has been accepted. I have no idea if I still have a chance of getting into UCLA so any feedback is helpful. UCSD is my second choice and I have TAG to UCI. I am also an Honor’s student which I believe is supposed to elevate my priority during admissions for UCLA. As for extracurriculars, I have volunteered as a 4th grade teaching assistant at my church every Sunday for 2 years. I have been a private tutor for the past 4 years. I currently am in the interview process for an teaching assistant position at my community college. I am hoping to be admitted into the COPE Scholars Program this Fall (November 1) which will allow me to put it on my application and I am applying this week to begin volunteering at my local hospital.
Please and thank you all for your time!

Are you on track to finish at least 60 UC transferable units before Spring 2018? How much of your prereqs will you be able to complete?
Will you complete the Honors program by the end of Fall?
If you’re not doing IGETC will you be able to complete the GE breadth?
