<p>Aside from GPA and SAT, your stats are pretty good.
Not sure how much the 1790 will affect you.</p>
<p>& how is your UC gpa higher than your weighted gpa?</p>
<p>i guess u only take the 10 and 11 grade courses into consideration. i checked and its the same as the grade posted on my transcript. i had a ****ty 1st semester sophomore year, but i improved later on. hopefully the admissions people will like that into consideration… I will try to improve on the SAT. im raising money to take classes at elite so i can get some help…</p>
<p>[UCLA</a> Undergrad Admissions: Profile of Admitted Freshmen, Fall 2008](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/adm_fr/Frosh_Prof08.htm]UCLA”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/adm_fr/Frosh_Prof08.htm)
I’m not sure if this is helpful or not but this is the profile of freshmen that got in for 2008. You might want to boost your SAT score up to 2000 at least. Elite’s pretty good SAT place, so try your best there. For your SAT II scores, you might want to bump them up to at least 700 or more. Study hard for them and buy books or borrow from a local library. Your ECs are pretty good, but are you an officer in any of them? You might want to try running for board if you’re not. Sorry if my information doesn’t help, but I think I have a small idea of UCLA because my brother goes there xD.</p>
<p>im jealous of your brother then hahaha! no im not an officer. problem is that, i dont really have the time to be a leader with the limited amount of time i have. i can go for a spot in csf and nhs, but i doubt that looks good…</p>
<p>It wouldn’t hurt to try. But if you don’t have time for it then you shouldn’t do it. Senior year you’re taking all AP classes? That’s like 6 APs? O.o. Don’t forget, don’t bite off more than you can chew. There’s something else [Congressional</a> Award](<a href=“http://congressionalaward.org/]Congressional”>http://congressionalaward.org/) since you’re already doing all that community service, you can get this. If you are going through with it, you might want to aim for a lower award because it still takes time to do it. You might want to research it a little before deciding to go through with it though. Awards look good for college; however, I think it might be a little late for it. Maybe not. <em>shrugs</em></p>
<p>ill chance you as well!</p>
