Integrated Science counts as a lab science for UC purposes.

The minimum requirement for UC eligibility is 3.0 gpa on College Prep classes, not honors. Moreover, just because one takes Alg II and earns a A may not mean much in a HS where the average SAT-M score is a ~400.

And yes, I understand that we are discussing UCLA where the UNHOOKED require a high gpa, but again UC purposely admits a lot of underprepared, hooked candidates, many of whom are from single parent, poor households.
