finishing more pre-req before applying = more competitive?

I’ve never seen anyone apply to a noncompetitive major with complete prereqs and a 3.6 get rejected though.

Me too, I’ve been studying these patterns. I’m really worried given that the applicant pool will be bigger this year, and there is a good chance of the average GPA rising.

I checked the Cal average transfer GPA, last year it was around a 3.75-3.78, now it’s 3.7X - 3.80.
