<p>I don’t know about the others, but UCSD uses a points system -</p>

<p>[UC</a> San Diego Comprehensive Review Admission Process: Freshman Selection, Fall 2010](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/prospective-students/admissions/undergraduate-admissions/freshmen/process.html#selection]UC”>http://www.ucsd.edu/prospective-students/admissions/undergraduate-admissions/freshmen/process.html#selection)</p>

<p>I don’t think you get a bonus for a tough school. I think you need somewhere around 7800 or 7900 but I’m not 100% sure. It varies from year to year.</p>

<p>Thanks guys for the honest advice.
Collegebound thanks for your realistic input.</p>

8

<p>^nvm i didnt notice you said private. since its private you should look at naviance or talk to other students because its a lot different when you go to a private and how they do gpa and such</p>

9

<p>Oh. But still. I was thinking more along your lines because that’s how it is looking at the numbers. And having just been rejected from NYU Stern I’m starting to think that private school applicants don’t get that big a boost or boost that can help me.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>

<p>Yes. Msyazdanie. Reach=Reach, Match = 50/50, In = Safety
Anyone else?
How much will my Senior Year (3 APs) UW GPA: 4.0 help?</p>

<p>Anyone else please?</p>

<p>Hey! I’m a senior whose getting ready for college. Can you guys evaluate me and tell me your opinions on whether you think i can get into Stern or not? I’m debating over whether I should be doing Early Decision or not… would my chances be higher if I did?</p>

<p>Cumulative GPA: 3.45 (unweighted)
I take the IB diploma program, so I’m pretty sure my GPA would get weighted depending on the schools. I know my GPA isn’t the best, and this is my GPA so far from Junior year. If I go early, then this is what they would be seeing. If I apply normally, my GPA this semester I know would be higher, but then again the acceptance rate would go down if I apply with everyone else… right?</p>

<p>My GPA for Junior Year was 3.57 and 3.625</p>

<p>Extra-Cirriculars

-President of SBC (School government)

-Varsity basketball
-Lucidus Pulpa Head Designer (Lucidus Pulpa is our school magazine)
-Service hours
-Honors orchestra festival participant (three years)</p>

<p>SAT scores</p>

<p>SAT I
Math - 750
Critical Reading - 700
Writing - 800
Total: 2250
(Best sittings combined)</p>

<p>SAT II
American History - 760
Math IIC - 710</p>

<p>Are my chances okay? Do you think I will be able to get in? I’m hoping my admission essay, other activities and SAT scores make up for my GPA. I also attend an international school in Japan. Thanks for the help!</p>
