Hi! Don’t get discouraged. Your GPA seems competitive for UCI, UCR, and UCSB. Also, I wouldn’t waste my time with USC. They average the F’s and the second grade so your calculated GPA will be lower there.

I think every situation is different. Maybe your friends didn’t get in with W’s because it wasn’t explained in their personal statement. There are others that have gotten into UCLA with more than 10 W’s. I’m not really in the position to judge, as I don’t know what school I’ve been accepted to yet. But in my opinion, you should look at the stats for those admitted to the sociology major at the UC campuses and see where you fit in. Just try your best and have realistic expectations.
