<p>even with the low gpa, you should be in</p>

6

<p>I got in with very similar stats so you should have a good chance</p>

7

<p>I would say ur in :)</p>

8

<p>welcome :)</p>

9

<p>thanks so much guys! do you know if essays matter a lot to ucsd? because I keep hearing mixed opinions</p>

10

<p>and also does anyone know whether you have to report all AP scores on the UC app? Because I did really bad on one ap, and I really don’t want to put it on my app.</p>

<p>ucsd23,
i think you do report all AP scores. you don’t want to hide anything, and i don’t think administrators will look down at you for doing badly on one ap exam. be honest and send them all in, you don’t want to risk anything</p>

<p>as for chances, i think you will make it! your uc gpa is same as mine (mine’s a 3.72), but you have really good chances with that great SAT score! your ecs and awards are similar to mine, lol! music, science research, a president of a club… You will be fine!</p>

<p>chance me back, a fellow ucsd hopeful? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-san-diego/1040456-ucsd-vs-boston-college-pretty-please-please-chance-me-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-san-diego/1040456-ucsd-vs-boston-college-pretty-please-please-chance-me-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>ucsd is also my first choice! do you live near the campus? i really suggest you to visit! good luck!</p>

<p>^ Yes, visit!
You’re in, I’d say. I know many friends of mine had similar stats and they are doing fine here.
You DO report all AP scores since CollegeBoard sends them in officially as well. The admissions council will in no way look down upon you, AP scores are mostly helpful when you register for classes, because they give you units which give you an earlier enrollment time. I know many people here who got 1s or 2s on AP tests.</p>

<p>shoot i only saw this after i sent it in, and I didn’t report one of my ap scores, but i sent in all my scores.
will that hurt me?
and thanks guys for the kind replies!</p>

<p>what major are you applying for?</p>

<p>I would say you’re in. Your ECs look pretty amazing.
I had a 3.71 and a 2150 on the SATs,
so your SATs make up for the pretty low GPA</p>

<p>you’re totally in. dont even worry. i say u should have taken a chance at ucb or ucla</p>
