<p>Hypophora: Your stats are very impressive tho your GPA is a bit low, then again, son got in with almost identical stats and has the same major. If you really want to go to UCLA, you may appeal, but make sure to send in new stuffs( teachers' and counselor's rec., awards, scholarships etc). One thing I notice is that SAT Math 2 is not listed; did you take the test? I thought one must take the Math 2c and another SAT subject science test for any science, math or engineering major.</p>
