Forgot to mention that I am currently a junior, hence the missing information on senior year
Intended major in structural engineering
Hi @stevenk2017 ! Engineering majors might require a higher GPA but you do have quite a few AP which counts up for it.
Again what is your UC GPA?
Are you in-state CA or out of state?
UC GPA is going to be 4.2, in-state
Based on your stats, UCSD looks very promising but definitely not a guarantee. Make sure you have 1-2 safety schools and your list and apply broadly.
