I just found out that I've been accepted to UCSD by exception. I was also admitted to UCSC by exception. The reason?

I'm a home study applicant who didn't have an SAT score of 1400 +. =( Thus, because of this, I don't meet UC's Minimum Eligibility Requirements..... =(

But UCSD accepted me..... now I'm waiting on Berkeley.....place your bets, if you please! =) And thanx!!!!

I've received only two B's in two college classes (one in a summer calculus class on quarter system, one in organic chemistry with a shortened semester due to budget cuts) due to some emotional circumstances i.e. hardship.
