<p>Misc:
First generation student. </p>

<p>Frankly, I do know I will most likely get into UCLA, but what would be my chances for the UCLA regents scholarship?</p>

<p>I do not understand some of you kids. How is it higher to get above a 4.33 if UC’s only count 8 Semesters for 5’s if you have A’s. The max UC GPA is 4.33 because they only count 8 Semesters, meaning 2 honors/ap classes as 5’s per year for 10 and 11 grade.</p>

<p>^thats UC capped gpa, futurexreject. You can go above 4.33 on FULLY weighted gpa which all UCs consider. My 4.64 is a fully weighted gpa.</p>
