<p>Hello fellow CCers, I have a knawing question. This year I have amazing grades, except for one little thorn. Last year, I had depression, so I did not learn much in Spanish II, so I am struggling in Spanish III. my other grades are as follows. </p>

<p>APUSH A
Physics A
APCS B
English A
Trig A
Leadership A </p>

<p>I am in Academic Decathlon and Science Bowl. I taught myself C++. I also tutor kids after school in Mathematics. I may start helping children in reading soon. My desired major is Physics. Would it still be possible to get in?</p>

<p>I am also apart of Leadership, which takes up alot of afterschool time.</p>

<p>As long as you maintain a GPA of 3.0 weighted and no D’s or F’s, you should be ok.</p>

<p>I think he/she might be a junior.</p>

<p>You can get accepted to UC Davis with a C, but it will be a lot harder. I personally don’t know of anyone at Davis who had a C in their sophomore or junior years of high school, but they certainly exist. Explain your depression in your application if you feel it had an impact on you academically.</p>

<p>tzinx: I personally know two students who received a C in their sophomore year and were accepted to UC Davis for Fall 2013. It is possible.</p>

<p>Sure it is possible, you will probably need a UC GPA of 4.0 or better, solid test scores and the ECs you outline. With 2 AP courses, you can offset the one bad mark. Shoot for a B this semester.</p>
