<p>“According to online sources, Live Oak had an API of around 730. It’s not Monta Vista but it’s above average. I think it’d be a hard sell to blame your misfortunes on your HS.”</p>
<p>Are you serious? Look, only 5 people made it to Cal from the senior class of 05.<br>
Thats ridiculously low. An above average API probably means more people are graduating instead of dropping out. The valedictorian took AP chem and got an A. Guess what he got on the AP test. An 2. Talk about de-standardization. I have many other anecdotes that show how bad this school is. </p>
<p>“Contact some profs at Stanford or SJ State and see if you can get a research position.”</p>
<p>Do med-school prefer biological research that pertains to medicine? Or is anything fine? My major is math so I will most likely end up doing a math or engineering research.</p>
