Discus: What Are My Chances?: October 2002 Archive: Lack of APs and Berkeley

Here's another one of my problems...I know most CA schools offer many AP classes in many different subjects, so a school like Berkeley would expect a canidate to take as many as possible, right? So where does that leave someone like myself, who's taken all but 1 AP class his school offers, but still only has 2 on their transcript? (I'm in a pretty good public school in Washington state, and I took AP US history last year, finishing with an A, and I am currently taking AP Senior English, and currently am getting an A) I know other schools that I am applying to, Lewis and Clark for instance, checks to see how difficult your class load is in comparison to what the school offers, but they're a small liberal arts school. Does a university with 30,000+ applicants bother with something like this?

Yes they do, as long as your gpa is high, and your sat scores are solid, you should have no problem,they do take into consideration your plight. Dont worry.
