<p>judging from the amount of typing I had to do.. I would say Muir was the best (or at least.. has the least) but I could be wrong</p>
<p>7128!! awesome you'll get in fosho:)</p>
<p>katt8 is there any site with those GE's on it?</p>
<p>bbuumpppppp</p>
<p>!bump pmub!</p>
<p>one last bump then im givin up</p>
<p>is their a level of difficulty in gettin into different colleges at UCSD
for example is it harder to get into Muir than 6th college?
do they look at different things from you?</p>
<p>bumppppp!!!</p>
<p>is there a higher cutoff for out-of-staters? i meet the 7500 requirement by examination and GPA alone, but i'm guessing there's some catch if you're not in CA</p>
<p>wow if you made the cutoff with examination and gpa thats pretty good....thats like a 4.3 gpa and you got a 2400/800/800 can i see your stats...plus i have no idea if there is a higher cutoff for out-of-staters</p>
<p>well, i really dont have stellar stats, i have "slightly above average."</p>
<p>GPA * 1000 = 4000
new SAT = 2060
top 2 SAT II's = 770 + 710</p>
<p>all together that's a 7540, which is barely scraping, but i'd meet some of the other requirements...</p>
<p>in either case, anyone know if the standards are A LOT higher for out-of-staters?</p>
<p>you kinda got the formula wrong</p>
<p>(2400+800+800)times 0.8 =3200(they cap it at that score)</p>
<p>right now
(2060+770+710)X0.8=2832+4000=</p>
<p>6832, so you kind of need a lot more stuff not only academics, about 700 points, but you can get that through going beyond minimum for A-g courses, community service/leadership....</p>
<p>oh well, thanks for that. yeah i meet a lot of the extra requirements, so it shouldnt be toooo much of a problem.</p>
<p>also, does anyone know if Ucsd is as unbelievably large as, say, UT austin? i know there's an undergrad count at collegeboard, but maybe a smaller class size would make the population seem not so huge - if anyone gets that. now that i'm narrowing down my schools, i'm trying to decide if huge UC's are a good idea if i wanna get into med school later down the road</p>
<p>alright ppl
sry for the late reply but here is the formula
GPA x 1000
(New SAT + SATII + SATII) x 0.8
33-39 A-G courses is worth 250pts
40 A-G courses is worth 500pts
ELC worth 300pts
Educational Environment worth 300pts
Parental Income < $60k worth 150pts
under federal TRIO low-income cutoff worth 300pts
Parents: Some college = 150 HS or less = 300
Leadership: 150pts for 2 minor roles, 300pts for a major role (President or VP of class, editor-in-chief, eagle scout, girl scout gold award)
Special talents, achievements, awards : 150 single, 300 multiple
Comm. Server <200 is 150pts, >200 is 300
AVID, EAOP given some points
Single Parent household = 250pts
working 20hrs+ week = 250pts
Life altering event (death of immediate familty member etc.) = 500pts
Less severe event = 250pts</p>
<p>You guys got that?</p>
<p>last yer in state cut off was 7450ish
out of state was ~100 points higher</p>
<p>If you make 7700, you'll be pretty safe. just dont bomb your essays.</p>
<p>peace</p>
<p>squarehead: what is educational environment? what is the cut off for ucla, ucsb, and uci?</p>
