How good do we have to maintain our grades after the update?

<p>So we've sent in the upgrade for last fall. How well should we maintain our grade for the current quarters/semesters before transfer?</p>

<p>For instance, if I had mostly A's and some B's and after the update I got all B's and C's, is that a problem?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>it depends on your contract really. That of course is determined by the classes you are taking in the spring.</p>

<p>What would it usually be like? A specific GPA (2.0, 3.0, 3.5) or what?</p>

<p>I believe they tell you what grade you should get for each class. Or a specific GPA.</p>

<p>Well, I am not positive but I TAGged w/ UCD and UCSC and was told that I must maintain higher that a 2.5, I would expect that UCB or UCLA require that one remain above a 3.0 for the spring 2010 semester.</p>

<p>i hope its 3.0, thatd be greattt</p>

<p>depends on your prereqs too. Someone last year had a 4.0 but took like half of the prereqs for UCLA bizecon in the spring so they had to maintain a 4.0.</p>

<p>I doubt it’s that big of a deal. As long as you get the C or better why would they make you overachieve when your GPA gets wiped out in mere months? In other words, whats the point in making you get a 4.0 when it wont count toward UC GPA? It’s like making you train extra hours for an event that you know will never take place.</p>

<p>your cumulative gpa is what counts for grad school. If you want to get research or an internship during your first semester you will have nothing to go off of other than your cumulative gpa since you won’t have a UC gpa. Also, they want to make sure you can actually get A’s in the prereqs. Otherwise everyone who wants to get into an impacted major would just get 4.0 in the easy classes and save all the prereqs for the spring and get B’s and C’s.</p>

<p>hmm : |
I’ve completed some preq’s and I’m taking the last math class, and two english classes in Winter and Spring 10.
I hope they don’t ask much.</p>

<p>i am in the same boat as you zillac. none of them go towards my major, but 18 units go towards my LS reqs. one of them is a stats class i know i won’t get an A in, can’t count on a b really either.
so #1, lets get in </p>

<h1>2 lets hope for a nice contract.</h1>

<p>So lets say you do #1 and get in, can you compromise with the admission department if you didn’t meet the requirement? For example, let’s say you are getting a C or something, and your thinking you should get in no problem and you do, but they ask that you get an A in the class your getting a C in for spring. There MUST be some sort of dialog that can take place with the school to bypass this, or make up for it in summer or something right?</p>
