Colleges & Universities University of California - Berkeley

<p>i was going to apply for economics major at UC but i recently got my sat 2’s and they are - lit- 670
maths 2c-660
which is really bad:(
i am regiving sat 1 in december so no chance for regiving subject tests either.</p>

<p>what i want to know is- will it be better to apply undeclared , ecause my bad maths marks will have a bad effect as economics requires maths ::(:((:(((
what do i do???</p>

<p>ps- i am an american citizen but studying in india and those were the only 2 subjects my curriculum allowed me to give.</p>

<p>You don’t really apply for a major anyway iun the College of Letters & Science, you only declare a major after you are a student and meet the prerequisites, in your sophomore or junior year. So I doubt if it would matter on your application. The math requirement at Berkeley isn’t very rigorous for the economics major, actually, so a 660 would be good enough.</p>

<p>L&S does not admit by major. Every freshman is undeclared.</p>
