UCLA Fall 2021 Transfers

3.82… got one B for calc II lolll

Just curious, I thought you already had taken AP Calculus BC with score 4, then how come you still took Calculus II in the college? Doesn’t AP Calculus BC is equivalent of Calculus I & II ?

Yeah but for econ major, UCLA only accepts calc BC wt score 5 to be transferable for math 152F

Oh I see. Hopefully, with just one B will not affect that much in the admission. Wish you all the best and luck!

Yesss me too with Poli Sci. It lowkey made all those AP classes from high school worth it haha saved me a year of CC.

hey ya’ll! Is it impossible to get into LA with a 3.7 gpa): I feel so discouraged but I had a huge upward trend in grades so I’m extremely anxious for decisions

Here’s my full intro:

Overall GPA: 3.88
Major GPA: 4.00
Current school: UC Santa Barbara, but I have also taken classes at my local community college
Intended major: Math/Econ (It’s a single major)

ECs: Not too much from UCSB yet, but I have an accounting job and I have some sales experience. I also included some high school ECs because those are far stronger.

Essays: 9/10. I had a current UCLA student read them and she liked them. I provided specific examples for my leadership capabilities.

Strengths: I will have completed both the recommended and required courses for my major, including the C++ course which I had to take at my community college, which I also got an A in. I am also at around the average GPA for admits from UCSB and for my major.

Weaknesses: I got a B+ in a writing class at UCSB :(. I’m also a one-year transfer applicant with a ton of APs, and although I’m pretty sure my 5 in Calc BC will count toward my major, I’m not totally sure. If it’s not, I will get rejected. Also, my lack of ECs from UCSB worries me.

Yours too! I might see you around if we both get admitted. Especially since my alternate is philosophy

Oh wow really?! Good luck to the both of us! :grinning: what is your intended major?
I had such a difficult trying to make sure I took classes that matched with the UCs prereqs since Asssist does work for CSUs to UCs but I hope I did enough. :sweat_smile:

Anyone hear from regents today? Otherwise we can rule out next Wednesday :grimacing:
