My SAT scores weren’t the best and I still got into UCLA this year. I think my PIQS helped me a lot and they also requested supplements so I think that helped too. I had a pretty good gpa and my extracurricular activities were also pretty good. This year, UCLA was even more competitive than ever before and I’m very grateful to have gotten in.

[@jordingodinez6521]

I know some kids who didn’t get in and they had a really high SAT score so it’s not all about the scores. Yes, these scores are important but they do not determine whether you’ll get in or not. Remember these admission officers review applications holistically.

[@CloroxBeachLLC]

J congrats fam, I got in too! I would stress the same about grades, admission officers will place more emphasis on PIQs. With so many applicants offering their academics as ways of getting in, PIQs really make an applicant stand out. I’m not afraid to shows stats lol, I feel like my essay and story really spoke more than grades ( I got into Berkeley as well) . I had a 1120 SAT and had 4.1 GPA, I also took subject tests such as bio (got 600) and Spanish (800). Similarly, I was also given supplemental questions ahaa.

I’m a year ahead in math. Grade level is algebra, I took algebra last year and am now taking geometry. It’s not geometry honors, but does it still count as an advanced class?

[@KevinWeiTV]

You will only get an extra +1 gpa point for certain honors/AP/IB classes. Since this is not an honors class, you won't get that extra GPA point. Good job challenging yourself though and being a year ahead in math!

I kinda messed up my 10th year and I'll be going to 11th next year, what do i do?

[@caseyhagedorn7960]

Rogue toxin just try your best to get the A in AP classes, it will bring you Gpa up,

[@roguetoxin5397]

@@caseyhagedorn7960 thanks I'll bring my best, and even if it doesn't work out I'll try community college

[@ummarsaleh1255]

So is the GPA calculated for only 10th and 11th grade?

[@KevinWeiTV]

The UC GPA used for evaluating high school students is yes, only 10th and 11th

Bro.. I already know I won't be able to get in 😭😭😭 I havent taken any AP classes and Im a junior

[@kubraben5995]

just take some next year. I came to this country last year about this time and I needed to get some credits in order to graduate high school so I was not able to take the classes I wanted but next year I get to choose the classes I want to take and so far I have 4 in mind which 3 of them social studies and one of them is English. Just give it a shot and if you don't like it or started to struggle it just drop it there is no harm at doing so.

Hi if I get C/D in my A levels and get good score in sats like 1200/1400 will they select me?

[@haley335]

[@Drippy_JDj]

Please tell the living cost in los angeles

[@KevinWeiTV]

Average monthly rent for off-campus apartment in the area: $900-$1.3k UCLA estimates ~$1.5k for personal expenses. This depends on how often you'll eat out and what you'll do in your free time (eg. concerts, events). There's definitely cheaper/frugal ways to pass time and hang out with your friends on campus and around LA: admission.ucla.edu/tuition-aid/tuition-fees
