<p>is it true that schools like UCLA are putting putting more weight on your SAT?</p>
<p>hmm? I thought UCLA is all based on your EC and essays and stuff...all the nonacademic stuff</p>
<p>no i read it's mostly based on academic stuff. unless your really good at sports. But my GPA isn't as high as the average and im hoping that my SAT will make up for it.</p>
<p>UCLA is still very number based but it's not going to be for a long time, since UCLA's admission staff is trying its best to use a much more holistic approach in admissions (like that of Berkeley). UCLA does put emphasis on Essays and Personal Statements (yes, they're important) but more than anything else, the numbers are still very important.</p>
