If I didn’t do too well my grade 10 year but do well In grade 11 would I still have a chance being accepted into Ucla?

Hi @hxoqa, thanks for asking this question.

The average GPA at UCLA is 3.92 for the Common Data Set 2021-22. About 55.4% of applicants had 4.0 GPAs, and 36.4% had GPAs between 3.75 and 3.99.

So yes there still is a good chance of you getting accepted at UCLA. Just keep in mind that UCLA is the most competitive public university in the United States with a 10% acceptance rate. 90% of applicants get rejected and many of them do have perfect GPAs and great course rigor and ECs.

If I were not the strongest applicant at UCLA, I might pick a few majors from the most under-subscribed majors. I would not pick for example anything Pre-Med like Biology, Math or Engineering or Social Sciences like Economics or Political Science. Maybe something like a language, history, journalism, or linguistics.

Good luck.
