[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Standardized testing in the UC admissions process would have helped in my house! [b]1600 SAT score (single attempt) and 14 scores of 5 on AP exams (14/14) [/b]didnt enter the equation, so my UC kid was extremely lucky to get in with his [b]3.7 unweighted GPA.[/b][/quote] Like California beaches at times, I see a red flag warning.[/quote] There were a couple of mitigating factors (boy, serious sports-related injuries that resulted in focus issues, irritability, photophobia, etc. as an underclassman), and I’ll also add that his GPA in those 14 AP classes was around 4.95 as his grades thankfully trended up after an imperfect start. But yes, the overall u/w GPA wasn’t pretty. Thankfully, he ended up where he wanted to be.[/quote] You needn’t defend your DC’s 3.7 (albeit I did, haha). That comment was simply rude.[/quote]
