Looking to transfer Fall 17
Schools applied to: Every UC except Merced.
Major: Philosophy
UC GPA: 3.7
Major GPA: 4.0(If that means just philosophy classes then yeah all A’s)
IGETC: Finished by end of spring
Major Prep: Done in Spring
EC’s:
-Lots of volunteer hours(2 hours a week for 52 weeks if that is considered a lot)
-Full time deans honor roll
-Tennis training(basically helping kids prep for tournaments in my off time. only put 25 hours)
But thats basically it, I have some work experience and thats a small amount(summer job, and part time job for a few days before my mother forced me to quit). However I do take care of my grandparents after school and i wrote about that in my essay but didn’t put it into work experience cause its not.
My essay was eh, but one or two may have been sympathetic and heartwarming I think. But overall not spectacular working in the coal mines with a peg leg and black lung levels of tragedy, suffering, and achievement.
But the biggest thing I’m worried about is I got a D in my intermediate algebra for the fall semester, it isn’t uc transferable tho but its on my record because i was told to put it. However Im in stats and I’m gonna have that finished by the end of winter with I hope atleast an B maybe an A but they won’t see it anyways all they will know its in progress right now. Anyways I’m wondering what my chances are because I really think Im not going to get in. I hope I do, but your opinions would mean a lot. And I will update as I get my admissions.
