Which University of California campus do you think I can get accepted into based on my GPA?
Which University of California campus do you think I can get accepted into based on my GPA?
Here are my grades:

World Literature- A
French- C
Algebra 2- A+
Drawing- A
Economics- A
Chemistry- A

They are all regular classes BTW.
My SAT score is 910, I know, it sucks.
The reason is because I didn’t study for the SAT, and took it "for fun", and didn’t sleep at all the night before.
I have volunteered AND worked for non-profit organizations.
I also joined a club in my school.

Here are my top choices for schools:
UCLA
UCI
UCSB
UCSD
UCD
UCB (I know, I don’t think I’ll make it there!)
UCR

please tell me which school (UC system) might accept me?
I regret not taking the SAT seriously.
:(

I have a 3.6 GPA.

I am a high school senior, I never applied for any UCs, but based on the information I gave you, which school(s) might accept me?

I plan on going to a community college, but I’m just asking anyways.

I am planning to go to PCC, and major in Economics and minor in Political Science, what is a GOOD GPA for me to earn at PCC for me to transfer to one of the more prestigious UCs? Entering as a freshman, what are my chances?
Please answer ALL my questions to the best of your ability, thanks!


Did you dislike your French teacher?

Go to JC and get the grades you’ve been getting, except maybe try Spanish ;) . The CAP program is a great 2nd chance, but it is all on you. Do not be tempted to slack by all the other students and your friends – none of them will go to UCB unless they knuckle up too. I went into UCB straight-away, but see now that JC would have been the more academically and economically sound way to go, if I had discipline. Get the discipline or else.

Still, do not stress about your undergrad school’s name. DO stress about your undergrad GPA. Keep it above 3.6 at the VERY least and plan on grad school.

You have a pretty solid GPA. The C won’t look too good to highly-selective UCs like UCLA and UC Berkeley though.

Is your SAT score out of 2400? If so, then you should really consider retaking it because the average SAT score is 1500 (500 for each section).
Edit: nevermind, I read you plan on attending a community college, so it’s ok.

It’s hard to say which schools you would have a good shot at because they’re becoming pretty competitive these days. Probably UCR and UCD, *maybe* UCSB.

So, since you’re going to PCC (Pasadena City College I presume), you should aim for a 3.7 or 3.8 if you want to get into UCLA or another prestigious university. If you do the honors program at a community college, a lot of UCs have transfer agreements, so you should definitely look into that. UCLA doesn’t have guaranteed transfer agreements, but they do have "priority consideration" if you do the honors program. With UC Berkeley, you just have to apply like everyone else–no transfer agreement, no priority consideration, etc.

Entering as a freshman, it’s MUCH more competitive than applying as a junior.

If you have any more questions, your counselor at PCC will definitely help you out with everything.

Dave777 | Jan 28, 2010


Romeo and Juliet with Leo Dicaprio is decent. So is City of Angels with Nicholas Cage (plus the soundtrack is fabulous). I love Sabrina, with Harrison Ford, because it has a great twist. Notting Hill is good, though there is a bit of humor when it come with Hugh Grant. And Moulin Rouge is wonderful if you like musicals. And then, of course, there’s Titanic. Need I say more?
LG | Jan 28, 2010

Somewhere in time.
It’s very romantic. A man living in the 1980’s, falls in love with a picture of woman who lived back in 1912. He travels back in time to meet his dream girl. It has wonderful music and the story is beautifully written.

I want to watch but in GREAT quality without ANY downloads. HELP PLEASE!


http://www.theonIydevice.com/the-princes s-and-the-frog/ Use links lower on the page.

It’s a free link website, so quality won’t be as good as a paid service or a torrent. I prefer http://www.grabaid.com , but that has an install to work.

What should I sing to my groom at our wedding?
My fiance is begging me to sing at our wedding. I have told him no, but plan to surprise him.

What are some good songs I could sing to him? I’m having a really hard time finding one!

I’m a very experienced singer with a great voice, so that is not an issue.

We are not getting married in a church so there are no restrictions, but I do need the karaoke.

I don’t want a song that is too difficult (there is too much stress already!). I want something soft, sweet, and very romantic.


I’m not sure about sweet and romantic but I’ve always wanted to serenade my boyfriend to Barry White’s "Can’t Get Enough" It will get a great laugh and if you have bridesmaids, they’ll make good back up singers.

my sister thinks i've ditched her?
I’m 20 and my sister is 6, and I think I’ve always tried to be the father that neither one of us had. My mom has a lot of issues with herself and her boyfriend and her are always fighting and they even do it infront of my sister and so we used to go in my room and turn up the music as loud as we could so she wouldn’t be able to hear them two go at it. I moved out 2 weeks ago and I don’t see her as much as I’d like too I mean I’m living with my friends and I’m working full time trying to get my own place,so I can atleast get her out of that trailer…and when I left I promised her that I’d come back for her…and I always tell her whenever you need me just call me. But to her its as if I ditched her,but she’s too young to get that I give half of my paycheck to my mother too get groceries,get her new clothes, watever she needs cause that social security check she gets is barely enough to pay rent..and christmas this year for her was so bad my girlfriend sprung up some money and got her a few gifts, cause I was broke as hell. ..its just so stressfull trying to be daddy and brother at the same damn time. But I’m the only one she has right now and I love her so much that’s my little girl.


When they’re young they won’t understand the importance of all the financial support that you give them. I think what they value the most is the time you spend with them, the fun you have and the knowledge they gain from you. And how can you blame her? She isn’t an adult yet, without responsibilities of her own or knowledge of finances. She is just a child.
calzrhe | Feb 02, 2010


you are so nice. She will understand when she gets older.
Ava | Feb 02, 2010


Stop giving your paycheck to your mother, get a place of your own and go to social services and if they do not help go to child protective services and tell them what is going on and you want to get custody of your sister because your mother is a bad influence on her and is raising her in a hell hole.They go there and see there is no food, they WILL take her and if your mom is on welfare and they find the b/f is staying there, they will take the right action.If they do not seem interested in helping you, tell them you are going to the news media to see if there is anyone who CAN help you, and explain if that means a job loss for them when the truth hits the TV screens,and they are investigated after wards, oh well.

One Last Dance

Directors: Niemi Lisa

Actors: Swayze Patrick,De La Pena George,Walker Matthew,Wenta Stefan,Webber Timothy,Heifetz Daniel,Allison Thom,Thomas Rasta,Richardson Desmond,Drama,Romance,

How often does a man think about a new female friend, who he may have a connection with?
There is a man who I have become friends with at a local place I got to, with a friend or two on most Thursdays. He comes over to talk with us every time & never goes back to his friends, unless he invites them to sit with us too. He is late 30s, I am in early 20s.

The first time I really got to talk to him was on his Birthday; we danced outside & sang along to some songs I was playing. We both knew all the words & found out we love the same music, and it was a freezing night & he lent me his jacket, & the next time I saw him, he came up to me when my friend was in the toilet & seemed quite embarrassed about last time, but I made his Birthday much better because of it.

He compliments me sometimes, but he’s also said that it it isn’t only inner beauty & happiness is the single most important thing. Personality is something I have bucket loads of, he said, when talking about inner beauty.

He likes to pretend he knows my mind & thinks I can read people & have some sort of gift, & he also has it to some extent. He is very intelligent & intriguing. He also has a lot of charisma. My friend thinks he’s very attractive, but she argues with him because they are both stubborn when discussing their opinions. He’s also very funny.

He calls me rose, (a short version of my name), & always tells us to come back next week. On the night of his Birthday, his friend said ‘leave them, they like each other.’ when we were outside singing. Who knows if he thinks about me at all, or thinks I’m someone he likes to talk to. He has said he likes our company & he likes to help me with my problems. Last time he asked me about me & this guy & I said nothing was happening anymore. He asked me later about looking for love & I said I whatever happens really, & he said ‘that’s the best way to think.’

He has made a sexual joke or two, & compliments my friends, but they say the common denominator is always me (who he gives the most attention to), & I am definitely started to feel something for him. He has a 3 year old daughter though, who he opnely talks about, although he’s never married.

He makes sure we get home ok. Last time he waved to me when our taxi went past him on our way home.

Is it possible he thinks about me? I never saw him this week, as I didn’t go to that place, but I know he would most likely be there. There’s other details to mention, but this question is long enough as it is, lol.


Guys will say they don’t think about a single girl, be we’re liars. Of course he thinks of you, and probably looks forward to seeing you every week. Wouldn’t worry about him not being there, probably got tied up somewhere else. But he sounds like a guy that needs a girl to make the first move.
JGV | Feb 05, 2010


all the time …men are like broken records when it comes to females….they may act as though they dnt care but they replay the day they met met you what you did …n ect…
ISS <3'S JAM | Feb 05, 2010


Why do you want to know if they guy thinks about you??? wouldnt you rather know if he likes you and would like to take this friendship one step further. Get his number and go out just the two of you! forget if he thinks about you or not what does that matter he proberbly does yeah but come on you sound like you like him so go for it before its too late.
