My chances for a UCSD/ UCR?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I am a sophomore and my freshman grades were all As and Bs.
However, my sophomore year grades, arent so well...my GPA went down A LOT.
I was still think if I have a chance for UCSD.</p>

<p>first semester
AP EURO-C
LATIN-B
Chemistry- D ( retaking it again next year and aiming for an A)
PE-A
ENGLISH HONORS- B
ALG 2- C+</p>

<p>Second semester grades are still pending
my goal is to get all As in my classes and chemistry a D so I can take it all over again and aim for an A, and those Ds will cancel out.
I have around 50 hrs of community service and was historian for Make a Wish, publicist for Bridges, in the Golden Fleece Commitee and members for a couple of clubs.</p>

<p>This summer I am planning on doing 500 hrs of community service, and starting on my company that will be marketed in China by the help of my dads company.</p>

<p>Next year, my classes will be
Journalism( Schools newspaper)
AP English
AP US History
Latin
Pre-cal
Chemistry..again for both A's</p>

<p>President for "Bridges", ICC Rep for "Do Something Club", Historian for "MAke a Wish", Class of 2013, Key Club, Interact Club, Golden Fleece Comittee, Flipipino Club probably, join CSF and NHS</p>

<p>My plan for next year is to get above a 4.0 both semesters, and aim for a 1700 on my SAT
Is this good enough? What should I do to get into both of those schools?</p>

<p>I’m going to say what the general populace says: “There is no magic formula!”</p>

<p>UCR probably emphasizes grades the most, so yes, the D in chemistry will detract from your overall application. UCSD is a bit tougher to get into, so remain vigilant and don’t burn yourself out in junior and senior years.</p>

<p>Also, what should you do to get into both of those schools? I would recommend taking the time to proofread.</p>

<p>What do you mean time to proofread? I mean, I will take the class again, and those D’s will cancel out if I get a C or better, my goal is an A. Im freaking out!~</p>

<p>Don’t freak out! Just do your best and get an A in chemistry. </p>

<p>And when I said “proofread,” I mean read over your initial post carefully and think about all of the errors you made. And do the same for your apps. :-)</p>
