<p>So I went from a 3.4 gpa in the spring 2011, to a 4.0 in the summer, to a 3.3 in the fall. My gpa average is still a 3.5 however by the end of this fall. I have all the prerequisites done for my major and this major is Unimpacted. I am also on TAP for UCLA, which I hear is a pretty much guarantee for non impacted majors. This is for UCLA!!</p>
<p>Can you specifically point to which major you are going for? Did you check out the UCLA admission stat of the last few years?</p>
<p>its Anthropology, the average gpa is a 3.5. and it says its a 60 percent admit rate. I finished the prerequisites, and Im in TAP. My counselors say that I should be in. But im just worried if the slight downward trend is bad this fall (3.3)? my gpa is still a 3.5 tho cumulative .</p>
<p>yes you would seem to be slightly disadvantaged if you’re directly compared to someone with the same 3.5 GPA but upward trend</p>
<p>maybe im over thinking this. My counselors tell me they look at the final gpa. And this is not business/economics at UCLA lol I think I should be fine.</p>
<p>I had a 4.0 last spring but through this last summer and this fall my gpa dropped to 3.7. I had to take 16 units in the fall and the classes were very rigorous. but my winter and spring schedules are much easier. I hope that downward trend doesn’t hurt my chances for Berkeley. I’ll have all my pre reqs done and IGETC certified. Psychology major</p>
