Don’t do just the minimumhttp://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/freshman/how-applications-reviewed/index.html As we consider each individual application - and rest assured, we do consider each one - we look beyond grades and test scores. We spend time evaluating your academic achievements in light of the opportunities available to you and your demonstrated capacity to contribute to the intellectual life at UC. The 14 factors we weigh are: • Number of, content of and performance in academic courses beyond the minimum "a-g" requirements. • Quality of your academic performance relative to the educational opportunities available in your high school.
