If you were to simplify what anxiety is, it can best be described as your fear response not working properly. Have you ever had a smoke alarm that sounded even when no smoke was around? That's what living with anxiety is like - your body feels scared, even though there isn't anything that's supposed to be scaring it.
1 Students must complete two of the following lower division courses at UCSB and earn a 2.6 GPA average in those courses. 2  Courses must be taken for a letter grade:
I'm a UCSB engineer (computer engineering). I have a 3.5, and I'm in the top bracket. To advance from the pre-major to the major, you need to maintain I believe a 3.0 in the major classes. Some engineers are struggling to do that. But I don't know the average GPA. If I had to guess, I'd say somewhere around 3.1 or 3.2. Remember, undergraduate GPA is all relative. How good a GPA is depends on what classes you took and what program you were in.
