Sophomore Standing on Bearfacts?

Hi. I’m an incoming freshmen @ Cal, and after looking over my AP and IB exam results, I’m pretty sure I’m supposed to have “sophomore standing.” The problem is, when I check on Bearfacts, it still labels me as a Freshman. Should I be worried about this? I’ve heard that depending on your standing, your Phase II appointment will be adjusted. All my friends who are coming to Cal have theirs on July 23 whereas I have mine on the 24. (I know, not that much difference, but it’s something I want to check out).

For clarity, here are my AP exams that I’ve taken (assume 3+ score): Bio, Environmental, US, Eng Lit, Calc BC, Physics B, Chem, World, and Eng Lang. I also scored at least a 30 towards my IB diploma.

Are there any incoming Freshmen out there who have sophomore labeled in their Bearfacts? Should I contact the admissions office, or should I wait it out until August and see if it changes?

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated!
