@SDGoldenBear “Since your review will primarily be based on your grades from (what sounds like) only 6 or 7 total classes, I recommend completing as many of the major prereqs and related courses (Micro, Macro, Stats, and Calc II for UCSB with Calc III and Linear Algebra additionally factoring for UCD) in the Fall and Winter to help establish your economics potential.”

Yeah, I’m taking Macro and Calc II this fall semester and Micro next semester. I passed the AP Stats exam but I don’t know how if that counts. I don’t think I can get it in my schedule without messing up requirements anyway. If I get As in all these classes will they see that as an upward trend or will they only care that I got a 3.4?
