<p>I think this is the 2nd chances type post I've made and I apologize, but a lot of my stats have changed.</p>

<p>Could people chime in on what my chances look like for UCLA -- Economics (just regular economics, not Busecon or Econ w/ Math)</p>

<p>Here are my stats:</p>

<p>Applied with approximately a 3.72 - 3.73; average admit GPA for econ at UCLA last year was a 3.78.</p>

<p>Positive aspects of my application:</p>

<ul>
<li>I finished all my major Prereq's and IGETC at the end of fall 07.</li>
<li>I will be UCLA T.A.P. certified by Spring 08
- I'm in three Honors courses this quarter and two next quarter</li>
<li>A lot of unique work experience</li>
<li>Decent essay 1 and pretty strong essay 2
(Please PM Me if you want to read and critique them! I really need feedback because I want to know if I should use the same subject /themes for my other apps)</li>
<li>Got an A+ in accounting. BAM! lol.</li>
</ul>

<p>Negative aspects of my application:</p>

<p>The problem with my Prereq's is that my grades break down as follows:
Microecon: A
Macroecon: B
Calculus 1A: B
Calculus 1B: B
EWRT 2: A-</p>

<ul>
<li><p>I submitted on the VERY last extended day, Dec 1st, but I checked with the application services and they said it was received as "on time".</p></li>
<li><p>I reported my chemistry AP score of -1-, yes a 1 out of 5 rofl, and I only briefly said that it was a fluke in my academic record in the additional space area of the application. I also said that I didn't use the test score for any credits or to fulfill any prerequisites. </p></li>
<li><p>If it matters my family income was waay inflated over what it really should be to be safe (parents are divorced and I included fathers income)</p></li>
</ul>

<hr>

<p>Actually I know I said UCLA but if you guys could chime in on my chances for UCB, UCSD, and UCI too that would be awesome.</p>

<p>Keep in mind you have to update the Application with new grades. You are pretty much insanely close to the admitted GPA which will be of interest to the admissions committee. I think you're in. TAP is also very advantageous to people on the verge i.e., 3.5-3.6 Don't worry too much about it! & Good Luck!</p>

<p>^^ I don't know!! </p>

<p>I felt like such an idiot for it after I submitted lol. I think I was fatigued enough at the point of submission that I overlooked the fact that submitting that score was a terrible idea lol.</p>

<p>UCLA your in!!!!! cuz of TAP! SD,UCI no problem!

<p>The B's in your major prerequisites might harm you but with TAP I think you have a really good shot.</p>
