@bodangles Yeah that’s what I assumed. It was a 3.31 but a few Bs at spring quarter dropped me to the high 3.2’s.

@colorado_mom Thanks! I’m hoping as I get to upper division courses it will rise up. It is unfortunate that UCLA normalizes grades in the lower division courses so a 90 does not guarantee you an A.

On a seperate note, how am I faring for grad school? I would prefer to stay in California and I’m also open to attending with tuition assistance from my employer. A 3.5 is needed to get into ucla automatically so that’s obviously the first goal and will take a lot of effort. My friend got into UCI with a 3.1 so maybe it is possible with the right extra curriculars.
