<p>Planning on UCLA…how much will a B in WR 2 (second English comp) class hurt you?</p>
<p>Uhm…it would have to be evaluated in light of your other grades. What is your major and average GPA?</p>
<p>They’re not going to rescind admission over it, if that’s what you mean…</p>
<p>Oh, I thought he was thinking about applying and not yet applied (that “Writing 1” and “Planning” part threw me off). Yeah, if you’ve already been accepted, a B isn’t anything to worry about.</p>
<p>I actually haven’t applied yet. I’m only in my 2nd semester as an econ major. I have a 4.0 gpa but it’s only for 8.5 units (only did part time last semester)</p>
<p>Well for Fall '09, the average GPA of admitted econ majors was 3.86 (up .04 from the year previous and .08 from 2 years prior). Judging solely based on stats, I would say that as long as your GPA is somewhere near this figure at the time you apply, you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>Nope, doubt it’s going to hurt you. They focus more on grades from your major prereqs, plus your GPA is looking pretty good. Got a B in WR2 too from this one professor who slashed off 10 grade points out of 100 because of having the wrong format for my bibliography in my final research paper…</p>
<p>ANYWAY. Hahaha. Nothing to worry about, I’d say.</p>
