"Major is Neuroscience...."

You and I are now sworn enemies... or friends, I forget how this works.

I assume you're also a Neuroscience major. I'll buy you lunch if we both get in--if you applied to Davis that is.

Friends it is.

Physiology major actually. Listed as "Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior" on assist, and yes I applied to Davis (1st choice).

Oh, and I may hold you to that offer.

Good, that means there will be another person crossing their fingers for me.

On a related note, are there any other things that need to be done for the 3 UCs that I mentioned besides the Fall update? I ask because I know that Berkeley requires additional information.

As far as I know, only Berkeley requires additional info.

I know you can setup a login/pass at Davis and San Diego already, but you can't do much with it yet.

Aside from that, double and triple check your Application Update info (Jan 31 is coming) and get to work on the FAFSA if you need to.

good luck!

I don't know what community colleges you guys go to but the Davis rep told me with my gpa of 3.4 at DeAnza, I am basically in for UCSD and Davis (90% sure), only depending on how heavy this term's flux is; He said Fall 07, people averaged 2.8 for Davis, around 3.0 for UCSD. I'm a Sociology Major by the way, so that may also make it easier on my entry. Good luck.
Applied to:
Davis, San Diego, LA and Berkeley (these two just for the hell of it)

It might be a little tougher for us due to the competitive nature of our major.

On my end:
3.79 (UC transferable)
3.69 (Cumulative)

Missing Calc and O-Chem pre-req but everything else will be completed by Spring.

Counselor at school told me that anything above a 3.0 is basically in for UCSD. I don't know how true that is. Hard to believe right?

anchor · 01-29-2008, 07:00 PM

very much so.

My friend got into UCSD with around a 3.2, but he had a lot of strong extracurriculars backing him.
