<p>Need to calculate your UC GPA: <a href=“GPA Calculator for the University of California – RogerHub”>http://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Your SAT is very low for UCLA. You need around a 2100 to be competitive. Your GPA looks competitive.</p>

<p>UCLA: Reach</p>

<p>What do I do with my community college classes? Do I add the letter grade in with the rest of the High School grades? And thanks!</p>

<p>First question: can u afford $60k a year?</p>

5

<p>With scholarships, yes. I’ll have about 80k or student loans afterwards though. </p>

<p>I’d encourage you to apply to UofO and Oregon State as well. UCLA is a long shot and will be absurdly expensive. $80k in debt is a big burden for a young adult with a BS/BA.</p>

<p>Thanks. I get what you mean. I know I can get into U of O. All of my friends are urging me to try to get into UCLA</p>
