Next year--low gpa/high SAT?

<p>If you read through the posts of those that got in this year, you’ll have a better feel for what Cal is looking for. Cal seems to put more emphasis on GPA than SAT. However, it appears to me that Cal is also looking for those who have overcome adversity. First generation college is also a plus. College admissions at this level is a crap-shoot so I’m not sure why you wouldn’t apply. Good luck.</p>
