I have a 3.182 Gpa and a 1090 SAT(610M, 490 V). I have NEVER taken an AP class in my entire life until my senior year (Calc AB, Physics AB). My SAT II scores were (620Math IIC, 590 Physics, 490 Writing). My grades sucked ass and I’ve failed a class before. I’ve gotten suspended twice and arrested once… and I’m getting into colleges that I would have NEVER thought possible!!! How the hell does that work???
COLLEGES APPLIED:
<li>CSU Fullerton - Accepted</li>
<li>CSU Long Beach - Accepted</li>
<li>CSU North Ridge - Accepted</li>
<li>CSU Chico - Accepted</li>
<li>San Diego State - Accepted</li>
<li>UC Riverside - Accepted</li>
<li>UC Santa Cruz - Accepted</li>
<li>UC Irvine - Not confirmed</li>
<li>UC Davis - Not confirmed</li>
<li>UC San Diego - Not confirmed</li>
I’m REALLY surprised cause I was thinking of going to a community college… lol… what a turn of events… haha The only good thing about myself is that I improved my Gpa quite abit my junior year (perfect 4.0 from a 2.2 gpa) and my college essay was awesome!! so what are some other schools that I can possibly get into, of the ones listed above?
<p>Hmm not sure but my brother had a 3.2 and around the same SAT score. He was also in a gang and wrote about that and his turning around point. He was accepted to UC Davis.</p>
<p>Hey man congrats! You've turned your life around and you are given great opportunities. Use them to your fullest and you will succeed! Congrats!!</p>
<p>I hate to be the realist here, but I think your chances are probably less then 1% for ucsd; Keep in mind that ucsd is a top 10 public university and its a top tier UC school. UCI and UCD seem like a big reach but possible; I'd say my chances for ucsd are slim to none and I had a 1220 and 3.9 gpa(out of state);</p>

<p>I agree... I've heard that Davis lets in jackasses like myself on the count of my improving GPA. but, thats probably not enough to get me in... but thanx 4 the input. :)</p>
<p>"yea.. but y go to a CSU when you could go to a UC!!!! lol"</p>
<p>If you get into Irivne, Davis, or SD, then that's a good statment...but I'd choose almost any of those CSUs over Riverside or Santa Cruz...and Davis actually too, but that's just cuz I hate it there.</p>
<p>intresting... i kinda like santa cruz, but I too am afraid that I'll loose contact with my girlfriend who i love so dearly in San Diego... shes a junior... we'll see what happens...</p>
<p>ah, the junior girlfriend...I was her last year. He went 8 hours away, but we pretty much new that was going to happen from the beginning, so it was always the plan to break up. We still talk almost every single day though...the internet is a great thing. When you're both online procrastinating, it's easy to keep in touch. But I totally understand...especially if you're planning on staying together.</p>
<p>meggs121, thats intresting... hopefully, she'll go to the same college as me.. but shes a classic AP student... the ones that spend their lives devoting to school... so she could probably go to a much better college...:(</p>
