<p>I’ve already submitted my applications to the UCs but I’m a bit worried that maybe I didn’t apply to any safeties… Can someone rate me and tell me if I should be worried? I applied to six UCs (Irvine, Davis, Santa Barbara, San Diego, Los Angeles and Berkeley).</p>

<p>[Extracurricular Activities]</p>
<p>-I am member of the Academic Decathlon team at my school. If it makes any difference, our school makes it to state almost all the time.</p>
<p>-During my nutrition and lunch periods, I tutor my peers in our school’s study center for community service hours. I’m not sure if it makes a difference but I chose to work for hours rather than payment.</p>
<p>-I am a part of an environmentalist group/community service group called the Pacific American Volunteer Association (PAVA). It’s mainly run by students and I’ve held a few leadership roles in the organization. I’ve been awarded the President’s Volunteer Service Award.</p>
<p>-I’ve been playing the traditional Korean drums for almost three years now. I’ve performed twice at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood as well as at other minor events with students from the UCLA Korean drumming club.</p>
<p>-Practiced Kendo during my sophomore and junior years. However, I had to stop since other things have been getting in the way.</p>
<p>Intended Major: Biochemistry or any biology related major. Interested in a pre-medicine program.</p>
