<p>You’ll want to get a 30+ on the ACT and you should be good. Bio is no longer impacted (although who knows for how long), so you should have a decent chance at getting your major. All of the people I know from my school going to UCSD are top 3-4% in the class, but I think you’ll be fine.</p>

<p>Thanks so much! And my school does the percentiles only by ten, but I am guessing I am in the top 3%</p>

<p>anymore advice???</p>

<p>Get that ACT above 30 and I would be shocked if you didn’t get in.</p>
