<p>As an out of stater, the a-g requirements have confused me immensely. Now, after submitting my app, I have discovered that I have not fulfilled the f requirement: visual art. I have taken 2 separate (1 semester each) art courses, but neither is year long and they do not build off each other. However, in total, I have taken 3 semesters/ 3 different art courses throughout the duration of high school. My school does not offer any year long art courses except for AP studio art, which you actually have to be an artist to take. My school does not offer AP Music theory, art history, etc. either. If I explain this, do you think they would not care because I am an out of stater with a unique situation? </p>
<p>My other option would be to send the 610 spanish and 680 math II (low scores and even lower percentiles), because with those and my ACT score (33) I would have achieved the minimum score to be excused from the requirements. I feel like these subject tests would hurt me, though, so I would rather them not see it.</p>
<p>My last option would be to say I am self-studying for AP music theory... which I would probably get a 1 on. But nonetheless, I could say that and try the exam. (What would happen if I did get a 1? Could I send in my subject test scores after admitted or something and then they count?) </p>
<p>So what it comes down to: would UCLA (and Cal) be more likely to accept me without the completely fulfilled f requirement, with low subject tests, or with me saying I'll take the AP music theory (which I am willing to try)? What would you do in my situation? Thank you!</p>
