Hello, my UC GPA is 4.1, my Sat
Scores were around 2200, Act was 30, 31 and 29. I’m planning on majoring
In computer science. I’m new to this
Site, so excuse me if I left anything out or posted in the wrong forum. As for
APs I had
Junior year: ap physics , ap calculus Ap English, Ap history and
Ap programming.
Sophomore year: ap physics
I’m not sure about senior year but I’ll probably take 5-6 APs.
UCI Computer Science I heard is super competitive. Your SAT is very strong, GPA is alright. Do you have any other test scores like AP scores, SAT 2 etc.
Do you have any EC’s? Do you have any EC’s related specifically to CS?
UCI: Match
UCI seems like a pretty good match. What was your weighted and unweighted GPA?
@ayyyyyyy Isn’t UC GPA the official “weighted gpa” that is capped at +8 extra points?
@LomoKuan Correct, but depending on if your school does this or not, you should have a W GPA and UW GPA as well. So if the UC GPA max is a 4.5, a W GPA max would be a 5.0, so basically you don’t cap it at 8 points for your weighted.
I may have calculated my UC GPA wrong. My UW GPA is 3.9. For ECs, I had a summer computing job, camp counselor, president of a club and tutored kids at a library.
You are a strong candidate but, much of the UC application is subjective. Be sure to apply elsewhere too.
Considering you only need like an 1800 SAT for UCI, you’re golden
