Hey Guys!
As a junior in high school, the questions pertaining to college have only increased and I wanted to know my chances at UCLA!
Major: I literally have no idea. Although all my stuff is STEM-oriented, I’m definitely a fan of business, econ, finance… and would like to find a way to fuse STEM and my other interests together!
Stats:
SAT: 1520/1600
Unweighted GPA: 3.93

Weighted and Capped GPA: 4.36 ** I live in Virginia, so I got this information from the RogerHub Calculator
Regarding my actual grades, I have gotten a majority of A’s, few A-'s and few B+'s. I do not know if this GPA is reflective of my real GPA, but I just put them into the software lol.
