I'm new here.First I'm wondering about the Math requirements for UC

I am/I was horrible at Math:

I passed Geometry in 9th grade with C/C+
I passed Algebra II in 10th grade with a C/C
I failed Math Analysis w/Trigonometry in 1th grade D/F

My school counselor says that I can't use the Algebra I class I took in 8th grade towards the requirement?But I read you can.Can someone clarify this???

And can I complete courses in 12th grade to help satisfy the requirement?
If it does satisfy,should I retake the Math Analysis course or just go for AP Statistics and Probability.

If the Algebra I doesn't count than I'm planning on taking Statistics and Probability along with Math Analysis.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As of right now I have a 3.44 weighted GPA (I think that is close to somewhere down near 3.0 for my un-weighted)
Class rank:Top 25%
Class size:~900 students
I'm a CA resident.
I'm an Asian male.
I've taken 16 semesters of AP/Honors courses out of 38 courses.
SAT score:1980
CR-650
Writing-690
Math-640
SAT Subject:
US History-720
Biology-620

I'm doing Choir my senior year.
I'll have 2 years as a member in my school's Support for Freshman Program
I've been a 3 year member of Key Club International
I'll be in Junior States of America next year.

I've screwed up big time during High School...it was a combination of laziness and personal issues regarding family.With 3 more tries in 2008 at the SAT i'm hoping I can get 2160+ on the SAT.
