<p>Chance me for UCSB, USC, UC Davis. UC’s dont look at your freshman year, right?
I am currently a junior so I will post my grades thusfar (halfway through the year) and what they most likely will be at the end of the year.
10th:
Honors English: B+
Honors CHem: A-
Honors Algebra 2: A
Honors Latin 2: A+
Honors Global Studies: B+</p>
<p>(Our school doesn’t let students take AP’s sophomore year)
Grade right now/ what it will most likely finish as
11th:
Honors Latin: A+/A+
Honors Precalc: B+/A-
AP Chem: A-/A
Honors US History: B/B+
Honors English: A/A</p>
<p>Schedule for next year will be AP Calc BC, AP MEH, AP Latin, Honors Physics, and Honors English. Might possibly take AP Stat as well.</p>
<p>SAT: 2060
EDIT: If there are any other schools that you guys think I am a good match for or any safeties for me please post here! I really have no clue where I can to school haha. I only posted these schools because they are where I am looking at for now, but thats only because I am rather uneducated and have a lack of knowledge on this whole process. I encourage you guys to post other schools within my reach. I also go to one of Connecticut’s top public high schools, I believe it is in the top 8 for the state.</p>
<p>are they UC approved honors?
statiscally you’re a match/lowmatch at davis and SB
USC is a reach but that all depends on your ECs and essays</p>
<p>Not sure if UC approved honors. From my school, a weighted 3.69 is the avergae to get into UCSB and my weighted average for the two years is a 4.06</p>
<p>You will almost certainly get into UCSB and most likely UC Davis and Miami. I would call USC a low reach. Good luck!</p>
<p>UCSB: Low Match
USC: High Match
UC Davis: Low Match</p>
<p>I would recommend you apply to UCLA and UC Berkeley</p>
<p>google UC approved honors. I think the website is called doorways or something? just search for your school and there’s a listing of which courses at your school can be approved for honors credit. I’d link you but I’m on my phone.</p>
<p>I agree, definitely apply for UCLA. it’s worth a shot.</p>
<p>UC’s look at both semesters of 10th and 11th grade. you only posted one grade letter for 10th, unlike 11th. your gpa might be higher based on that.</p>
<p>Did not know that. Sophomore year GPA might be a bit higher because of this. Junior year GPA will most likely be higher too.</p>
<p>The website is called UC Doorways, just look up your high school.</p>
<p>Wait a second… went on the webstie… it says that i need 1 YEAR of visual and performing arts (VPA), chosen from the following: dance, drama/theater, music, or visual arts. (Year-long course must be in a single discipline). to get into UCSB. How much does this matter in my application? Also a B- is the same as a B+ to the UC’s and all of my B’s are b+s!! Ughhh… my chances are done?</p>
<p>Bump. Really anxious.</p>
<p>im glad that they require a year of performing arts because I hate it when kids just do hw throughout highschool, but then they suck at anything thats remotely artistic. That really irks me man.</p>
<p>It sucks for me. The only option i have is for my senior year to take intro to photo and then intermediate photo but those classes are both half year…</p>
<p>ive been in band since the 7th grade. Always best to start early lol.
But seriously i think that its a great rule for besides the reason i said earlier. I thought that band would be a drag but it turns out that i was actually good at something besides school. Trust me its good to be able to tell a girl that u play 6 instruments, vs saying “oh, im really good at taking notes and cramming!”. No dis to the amazing students out there, but its really worth it to do something fun ya know? <em>steps off soapbox</em></p>
<p>man i wish my school had AP calc bc :(</p>
<p>Bumping thread. Thanks.</p>
