Quick Stats
UC GPA: 4.1W-3.85uW
SAT I: 2090 (600 690 800)
I have been accepted to UCSB (received Chancellor’s invitation), which was one of my top choices, and plan to attend; however, I have a terrible feeling my acceptance will be revoked due to my lackluster senior transcript. Throughout high school I have maintained a 3.8+ GPA, but “senioritis” has indubitably left a notorious imprint on my senior transcript. My first semester I earned a 3.5 GPA (3.0 uW), while taking: Precalculus, Honors Spanish 4, AP Biology, AP Gov, AP Lit, AP Macroeconomics. Side note, I did not take any APs prior to my senior year, could this be a viable explanation for my terrible grades (if I am rescinded). My second semester grades are also aiming towards around a 3.0ish uW. All feedback is appreciated!
You need to maintain a 3.0 weighted GPA, no D’s or F’s and you will be fine.
Thank you so much! I also received a C+ my first semester in AP Gov. & Pol., will this be detrimental? @Gumbymom
Nothing lower than a C. UC’s do not use + or -. Just try to do your best and maintain that weighted GPA. UCLA/UCB require a 3.0 unweighted so if you are accepted there, you may run into problems.
