<p>go2007, this is what I think, provided you’ve finished most of the prerequisites:
UCSD ( CE Major) 90%
UCLA ( CSE major) 50%
UCB ( EECS) 25%
UCI ( CE major) 99%</p>

<p>^ wow. didn’t we do this stuff like last year? i’d rather talk about pets than this “chances” game.</p>

5246

<p>Have any of you applied to UCSD with the Transfer Guarantee Program? I just realized that it requires 2 semesters of a foreign language which will be hard to fit into my schedule next year. What are my chances without TAG if I have all the other UC requirements (including TAP)? I did have 2 years of hs spanish but it sounds like they want college level. Any input?</p>

5247

<p>you will be fine orange</p>

5248

<p>sauronvoldemort: if you’d rather talk about pets go to some cat and dog page; this is a UC forum so people will be asking UC questions</p>

5249

<p>so does anyone feel like chancing me? i’m booooored</p>

5250

<p>silent777,</p>

<p>Thanks for your thought. I’ve finished all the prerequisites by this semester. I’ve never thought getting to UCLA is that hard ( only 50% chance:( as you said ) …</p>

5251

<p>Pets? UC? How about this:</p>

<p>Does any UC housing accept pets?</p>

5252

<p>usually goldfishes are fine. if you have small harmless reptiles, i wouldn’t even bother reporting them.</p>

5253

<p>^You kiddin me? pets? don’t make me kick your arse!</p>

5254

<p>In dorms I will be the regulator, you undrestand me? The whole floor better respect the regulator.</p>

5258

<p>cumulative…</p>

5259

<p>Thanks for the encouraging words Brownfx, lets hope so!</p>

5260

<p>Ok, so here’s what it comes down to for me…</p>

<p>Major - Political Science
Overall UC GPA - 3.4
Major GPA - 3.5
Pre-Reqs - 5/5
IGETC - Done
Essays - good at the very least, possibly great. I’m not sure what the standard is.
Accepted at UCSD, UCSB, and UCI, but still waiting on #1 UCLA.</p>

<p>Was (TAP) certified, but had to drop one of my honors classes last month due to the passing of my mom, therefore I will not be finishing my planned courses for this semester. I notified UCLA about the situation, and they replied with “the changes have been added to your file.”</p>

<p>What do you guys think? I’m not even positive they are still going to look at my app. anymore (though they probably are as a normal applicant). </p>

<p>This is a really nervewracking time for me! Here’s to good luck with getting in…</p>
