Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Well, I slacked off when I was young and it hurt real bad. Basically I am looking at a 2.9 GPA with 8 semesters weighted. Is there any way to bump up my GPA Prior to Admission? I am going into my senior year. </p>

<p>Regardless of the answer; Id also like to make this a what are my chances thread assuming I had a 3.0 GPA. I took the most rigorous course work avaible to me in my entire city as well as attended the most competitive school in the area. Tell me what you guys think.</p>

<p>I would like to make an amendment to my GPA listings:</p>

<p>3.0 UW (Not really; read the top of the post), 3.94 WGPA</p>

<p>all you can do now is raise your SAT I and study a lot for the SAT IIs. are u in state? and which UCs do you want to apply to? that makes a difference I would say. good luck and never lose hope! we’ve all heard about the horror stories and the miracles… admissions are weird these days… STUDY!</p>

<p>Im sorry there is no way you have a 3.0 UW and a 3.94 W in the UC System…thats not right. OK odds at UCR, UCM.</p>

<p>Budget cuts and greater number of students vying for UC spots= very tough with a 3.0 gpa. Please apply to some CSUs as well as your desired UCs. Good luck, you need to rock those SATIIs.</p>
