<p>...because I totally screwed up first semester of junior year (3.2 weighted w/2 AP's omg!). I had some personal issues that really messed me up, but with some determination, I salvaged a 3.8 (weighted) GPA 2nd semester. </p>
<p>Some specs:
Sophomore yr: 3.5/3.3 GPA
Junior yr: 3.2/3.8 GPA</p>
<p>-Asian male, competitive public school in CA. Low income family.
-2000 on the SAT.
- Story of overcoming adversity (and no, I didn't write a sob story in my p. statement lol).
- 100 hrs of service, junior/senior years in Key Club & Track team.</p>

<p>And a quick question: would you rather go to UCR or take your chances at DeAnza (in hopes of transferring to a higher tier UC)?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
