<p>Honestly, there is data from all majors that being .25 off doesn’t mean your out. For example, I just checked and last year a 3.54 got into pre-econ at UCLA which proves anything is possible. </p>
<p>I hope he makes it over the fence, lets be hopeful. I didn’t make this thread to tell people they won’t get in, it’s here to relax people before the big decisions come in.</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
<p>@OP thank you for this thread :)</p>
<p>Major: American Lit and Culture (70% acceptance rate from last year, 3.47 average admit GPA)

Missing one pre-req :[ Finishing IGETC this semester</p>
<p>In at SD.</p>
<p>Scared ****less and just want this to be over with and hear back!!! </p>
<p>Good luck to all of you!</p>
<p>lol I’m in an interesting situation because I applied to UCB and UCLA as different majors :). </p>
<p>UC GPA: 3.74
Major: UCB - Phil UCLA - Psych
upward trend
essays: 8/10
EC’s: 150 hours comm service.
NO TAP; yes IGETC
prereqs all done for both…but UCB doesn’t have any prereqs that articulate from my CCC to UCB. Thus, none done for UCB. However, I have taken 2 phil courses with A’s in both.</p>
<p>IN: UCSC, UCD, UCSD.</p>
<p>I’m also scared lol and wish you the best as well mshaddal!</p>
<p>^bump </p>
<p>because everyday I bump is one day closer to UCLA acceptance/rejection thread post. </p>
<p>sadly…this is true</p>
<p>@flick–Like I said, best of luck. That would be so great if you got in.</p>
<p>@lintij–Believe it or not, I don’t want to go to UCLA. Berkeley on the other hand would have been great–but the acceptance for Anthro majors is below 20%. My GPA would not have cut it.</p>
<p>I don’t feel like I’ve been left out, I got into my number one choice and I’m happy.</p>
<p>Both UCLA & Berkeley</p>
<p>Major: Economics
GPA: 3.85
TAP: No
EC: average
Prereqs: All my CC offered
IGETC: One art class short
Essays: 11/10 ****ing amazing</p>
<p>Accepted: UCSD, UCI
Rejected: SDSU lol</p>
<p>Will you finish IGETC by the end of spring because I think it’s a must unless you did another gen Ed articulation.</p>
<p>Do you guys know what gpa would be on the fence for UCB L&S, social science in particular?</p>
<p>like anywhere in the 3.75 range to 3.84</p>
<p>that is my guesstimation</p>
<p>but as the berkeley people told me</p>
<p>“You have the chance to ask the best girl at your school out, whether she accepts or declines, at least you asked, no regrets”</p>
<p>but I think that range is pretty fence worthy</p>
<p>i know we can never predict 100% who Berkeley will take for sure…just wondering if i would be a borderline according to the past year stats… hehe</p>
<p>anyway, Berkeley admissions rep told me that social science is one of the most competitive in the L&S…makes me kinda nervous!!</p>
<p>Waiting for another 17 days is too long for meee</p>
<p>ya econ, poli sci, pysch, ect are very competitive, but they always select gpa from across the board…as in 3.6 up.</p>
<p>Just what ive noticed.</p>
<p>I feel like i shouldnt have been involved in the fight between those competitive majors…
I am a linguistics major lol…</p>
<p>Do you guys know what the ave. Admit gpa for media studies in berkeley? All i know is that it’s 3.93 (communication studies) in UCLA. How about for Cal?</p>
<p>[University</a> of California: StatFinder](<a href=“http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx]University”>http://statfinder.ucop.edu/statfinder/default.aspx)</p>
<p>I am on the fence… chance anyone!!!</p>

Major: Asian American Studies
EC: a lot of ec… founder of clubs… work 40 hr/week 200+ hr community service… marketing director @ a well-known company
IGETC complete…</p>
<p>i am sooo scaredd…</p>
<p>If not for your major, Eager, I’d say not good, but AFAIK the various " X studies" have high admit rates, so maybe 50/50?</p>
<p>50/50 humm thanksss!!! i am really anxious though…</p>
<p>well I chose my major because I wish to go to ASIA after graduate :)</p>
<p>@ eager</p>
<p>I’d say 65-70% because the GPA acceptance for those kind of majors, like Hadrian said, is usually lower than other majors in general. I am bumping the 50/50 to 65-75% because you have good ECs…All the Best…wanna chance me??</p>
