<p>Okay so about that.....made it up to get you to read this. sorry</p>
<p>My real question:</p>
<p>What kind of SAT score would I need to make up for my horrible GPA to get into UCI or UCR? My UC GPA is 3.5 and I want to take the SAT again. So what do I need to get into either school? I think I'm safe for UCR but what about UCI? I'm limiting myself to these schools b/c I want to stay local. UCLA is out of my range anyway.</p>
<p>2050-2100 should be fine.... but maybe i'm wrong. You should be fine though. Kids from my school get in with similar gpas and we're out of state.</p>
<p>that was lame</p>
<p>your mom is lame</p>
<p>many universities state that an oustanding GPA will overshadow a mediocre test score and that an outstanding TEST score will not overshadow a mediocre GPA</p>
<p>do the 2 universities i listed fall under that?</p>
<p>bump</p>
<p>^I'll second mayiplzgovertigo. Friend (in-state) had a 3.4 and 2170, rejected at UCI. You're fine at UCR though.</p>
<p>*** you serious? should i even bother then?</p>
<p>That's really lame.</p>
<p>I know a kid who had a sub 1400 SAT score and a 3.9 UC GPA and got in. A 1400 SAT score is like sub 500 each section. Doesn't make any sense.</p>
<p>And my friend about 3 years ago on the old SAT got like a 1080 and a 3.6 UC GPA and got in.</p>
<p>A few months ago I saw a 3.6/1910 get rejected.</p>
<p>It won't hurt to try (unless the $60 is super important or something) - just don't get your hopes too high.</p>
<p>i know a 3.5/1970 that is a sophomore this year at UCI.</p>
<p>I guess it comes down to the essay and EC's then because I made a topic a while ago and people with 3.3's and 1900's got in.</p>
