Hi all. Was admitted to UCSD last week and I'm ecstatic since I have terrible stats. To give you an idea... Undergrad Institution: Top liberal arts college Major(s): Chemistry GPA in Major: ~3.1 Overall GPA: ~3.1 Position in Class: for chemistry majors, at the bottom Type of Student: Female, low-income, US citizen but not a CA resident GRE Scores (revised/old version): Q: 153 V: 157 W: 4.0 Chemistry: 29th percentile Research Experience: 3 labs: one for half a year (1 presentation); one for a summer REU (2 presentations); two years at currently lab for senior thesis. No publications. I only applied to schools in California (I'm in the northeast and am tired of the cold winter months): UCLA, UCSB, USC, Berkeley, Stanford, and of course UCSD. I started this process telling myself that all I need is one acceptance so I'm satisfied and will most likely be attending UCSD
