Getting into UCSB with 1 D.

<p>Hey guys! So my dream is to get into UC Santa Barbra. I visited and loved everything about it! No joke. My only concern is that this semester, I'm afraid I'm going to pass my AP Biology class with a D. It's extremely sad. I'm doing everything I can, but the topic is just frustratingly difficult. Our teacher is amazing at what he does, but I just can't seem to grasp the subject. I passed my first semester with a C, but I'm afraid it isn't going to be possible this semester. I don't know if it makes a difference, but I've already completed my A-G requirements for Science. Plus, I'm going to take AP Environmental next year to make up for my D since it's WAY easier. I feel like I'm an excellent, well rounded student, and I do not want a letter to affect my chances at my dream school... All my other grades are good:</p>

<p>APUSH: B
English H: B
Pre-Calc: A
AP Bio: D
Orchestra: A
Marching Band: A</p>

<p>Can you guys please tell me if I still have a chance? Please be brutally truthful!</p>

<p>It’s impossible to tell without an SAT score.
But for reference, the average accepted student at my school had an SAT of 2000 and a GPA for 4.0 W</p>
