<p>Good Essays
Good Recs</p>

<p>Any input will be appreciated</p>

<p>forgot to mention that I'm out of state</p>

<p>I think that for out of state applicants...that you at least need a 3.4 GPA to even qualify. Your SAT scores look very decent, but I still think you're missing a SAT II Subject test (you need two).</p>

<p>I'm going to agree with what greensam88 says, it all looks wonderful but for your GPA, and you do in fact need another SAT II test.</p>

<p>What is your cumulative GPA from just the "a-g courses"? Because if you took a regular elective and got a poor grade, and thats what is bringing your GPA down, your GPA might in fact be above a 3.4. If you do not know what a-g courses are, the list is also on that page. Basically: At least a C in 2 history classes, 4 english classes, 3 math, two lab science, 2 foreign language, 1 visual/performing arts, and 1 college prep elective. Out of those classes, if your GPA is at least a 3.4, you are eligible. If not, it's time to look elsewhere =/</p>

<p>Please, skim through this and you'll get a better answer than anyone can give here: <a href="http://www.admissions.ucsb.edu/SelectionProcess.asp?section=selectionprocess&subsection=eligibility&selectiontype=prospective_freshman%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.admissions.ucsb.edu/SelectionProcess.asp?section=selectionprocess&subsection=eligibility&selectiontype=prospective_freshman&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>There is a eligibility calculator at the bottom of the page, use it, and let us know =)</p>

<p>First of all thanks for the replies</p>

<p>I checked out the eligibility calculator and my UC Score total was 424, because luckily my GPA will be 3.4 in only the a-g courses. I'm not really sure how my eligibility score matches up with other UCSB applicants, so if someone could enlighten me that would be much appreciated.</p>

<p>Eligibility Calculator results:
"A-G" GPA: 3.40<br>
UC Score Total: 424<br>
UC Score for SAT: 249
UC Score for Subject Tests: 175 </p>

<p>Preliminary Eligibility Status
Eligible</p>

<p>where did you find this calculator?? thanks.</p>
