LOL...I would look your mother straight in the eyes and say, "Look....do you want me to get into college or what? If you don't pay for these stupid applications then that means I have to work more. I don't have time to work. I have to study for my SATs! So stop being cheap and fork over the bread."

She'd tell me to go do my homework so I can get into college.

LOL. my mom may be old, but she can still kick my ***.... scary asian moms...they'll be all sick in bed one moment, and like throwing clocks/high heeled shoes/pighair brushes/coffee frenchpress thingies/potted plants/anything in their reach at you with all their strength the next moment.

You won't get into any CSUs, much less a UC with just 1 year at a comminity college.

It depends how bad your GPA is in high school. There are sveral options for you. For one, you can attend a loacl community college then transfer after you finished the required courses to schools you want to attend. That gives you a really good chance, if not better than just going right after high school. Try your local community colleges or try Norcal Comm Colleges. There are several here in the bay area, but I will list the more recognized institutions. 1.)De Anza College,2.) West Valley, and 3.) Mission College. These are very well known community colleges with very good transfer ratios, especially De Anza. I personally prefer De Anza because its a fairly nice campus, and accessible to many restaurants within matter of minutes. If you are into Asian food, you are in luck...

yeah.... it's crazy. my ex got into ucla with a 4.something and 2320 on his SAT (SAT's are out of 2400 now because of an added writing section) and someone I know got rejected from riverside with a 1350 (old SAT scale) and a 3.6....

Expensiver? ...lol. I hope that's not a SAT word. Take it from a person who's got a BS and MS, where you do your undergrad work is not as important as your graduate level work.

Edit: For 50k/year you better be going to an Ivy League University. There's nothing wrong with a good California state school.

Take a pic if you do that!

lol. Anyway, that's hella expensive. Um, like the last guy said, state schools are alright. I dunno, I just decided 2 go to a cc first year, im goin 2 transfer to SCU after I finish my major prereqs. the good thing is that it's hella cheap and there's nothing like the smell of a 4.00
