Hi all,

I will be applying to the UCs this year and I was wondering how much do UC’s consider upward trend? It says on their website that they look at it, but will my 3.96 UC weighted capped GPA look better if it was broken into 3.6 sophmore year vs 4.33 junior year?

Also, a chance me for UCSC, UCSB, UCD, and UCI with these stats?

UC GPA: 3.96, big uptrend from 3.6 to 4.33
SAT: 1580
SAT Subject: Math 2 760
Asian Male

Edit: I don’t know if this is relevant but I will be applying econ/letters and sciences- is this an impacted major like engineering?
