[quote=Coronita]its weird though because the kids in question has a 3.2 and 1050 sat when SATs were still being used at UC schools.
that just seems unusually low for a sought after premed major at UCI. unless it’s really easy to get into UCI premed programs (I doubt it)
Or unless his parents are lying and he didn’t get into a premed program.
Just really trying to understand this huge discrepancy that some people are saying happens with higher achievments.[/quote]
I dont think uci has a premed program. Judt individ. Majors. I just checked website, theres a post bacc premed program, but i dont see a “pre med” major
My kid did get into uci. We visited. He did not like it. Prob. Cause no friends going there?
I have a feeling sdsu is going to be the elite school now,
Due to being half price and in gorgeous location.
Cal state says its just numbers…i dont think the calstate app has an essay. Just uc.
