How heavily do UC's look at Senior classes?

I don’t know how much UCs really pay attention to the senior year, but all I can say that if you’re borderline, senior classes count!

How do I know?

During the winter (or around there), UCLA emailed me asking about my senior classes and grades up to that point. (They also wanted an optional essay but I didn’t do it.) Schools almost never email you like this unless they’re borderline about you.

[In case you’re wondering, I got in.]
