It seems that the general gist of people on this forum are overly worried about their college careers. It also seems to be a general trend of people in college, that once you’re in, you really don’t care at all, and you tell people who are still doing their applications not to worry, just apply and throw caution into the wind. I thought it’d be fun to share who has the lowest scores, and still got in. Kind of a change of pace if you will. Might want to include the year you left hs b/c admissions changes, as well as the sat point system…

My scores from hs (i graduated hs in 04):
UC gpa: about 3.3-3.4
SAT I: 1310
SAT II: Math IIc: 680 Writing: 640 Chem: 650
Extras: played lacrosse 4 years, Varsity lacrosse 2 years, w/ all-leauge first team
And yes, i still got into college :)

I had a friend in hs who got into cal w/ aprox. these numbers:
UC gpa: 2.8
SAT I: around 1200
SAT II: all around 600
He also managed staright C’s his second semester senior year. He’s still there now… not failing out…

College isn’t all about numbers…
