btw, REALLY important if you didn't know: You can choose to send the same application to every UC school. So if you simply fill out one UC application, there's really no harm in sending it to all. Tiny can help with any additional information since I'm not sure if there's extra fees for sending it to all UCs rather than a couple that you select.

another question for the panel: should i have written a couple starter essays already?

guidance said its a good idea to have a couple "event that has shaped your life" or "important quote to you" type essays because those kinds of questions come up a lot, but i feel like i should just wait until i get the prompt from the school and see what they want me to write about.

a 3.6 unweighted is a good but 32+ is normally 3.8-4.0

Thats why I asked if he was just lazy

yeah i study on average 3 or 4 times a year and do all my homework the day before it's due, but at least i'm not a walking ball of stress like a lot of the kids who are thoroughly invested in their 3.8+ GPAs

I deal with the stress because I want to get into UNC and become an opthamologist lol.

For now, it's worth it.

GPA and Standardized testing scores do not have great correlation at all.


Luckily though that wasn't the case for me



@Fire what is your GPA (core classes only) if you don't mind saying

but all of my core classes are also 5.0 on a weighted scale, so you can add a point to that

my electives are what drag down my weighted GPA to a 4.2 range

if i took more stuff like comp sci AP or a double math i would have a much higher weighted

university of arizona is a great business school actually, and its not that hard to get into. its undergrad program is ranked 22nd, with management information systems and entrepreneurship ranking in the top 10.

JUST PLEASE DON'T GO TO ASU

I did not send mine to all the UCs Jimbo. I only chose the ones I would actually attend (Davis, Irvine, Santa Barbara, UCLA, San Diego, Berkeley) so I dunno how it works.
