well my brother/sister…i was in your shoes last year.
your options now are as follows:
appeal
accept admission to a CSU or Private school (if you haven’t)
apply again to the UC system for Fall 2011

i appealed but it failed
i didnt want to go to a CSU and i didnt apply to private schools
i decided to apply again

Here’s a Little Ditty about Jane:

i applied for Fall 2009 admission to the UC system.
i applied to Berkeley,UCLA,UCSD and UCSB.
i got rejected from Berkley.
i got accepted to UCLA,UCSD and UCSB for Fall 2009
i SIRed to UCLA.
i failed my IGETC math transferable course.
i got rescinded from UCLA.

my only option was to take the math class i bombed…in the Fall of 2009… and apply in November for Fall 2010 with the hopes i’d get in again…so i applied again…

i applied in November 2009 to Berkeley,UCLA,UCSD and UCSB
i got accepted to Berkeley Spring 2011,UCLA,UCSD & UCSB Fall 2010
i got rejected from none.
i SIRed to Berkeley
i am IGETC certified and meeting all my conditions for admission.
i will eventually transfer…spring 2011…hey i am a pro at this waiting thing…i can wait…i enjoy waiting…i do my best work while waiting…i live while waiting…

what i did during the year after i got rescinded and what you can do is make yourself a stronger applicant.

this is what i did:
i joined student government
i volunteered more
i tutored kids more
i Aced my failed course
i cleaned up my essays that got me in the year before
i enjoyed my time at CCC knowing that i got into UCLA i would definitely get in again.
don’t get me wrong it was the longest year of my life. and i was definitely doubting…but thanks to College Confidential…i had an outlet for my stress.

i have lots more to tell you if you want to know anything PM me.
and sorry if this post isn’t coherent…lol…
