<p>I’m pretty sure u wont get into stanford/berkeley but yes to SF state. idk about wisconsin. I would look at mills before you apply - I did and glad I saved myself the trouble of filling out the application. it was EXTREMELY quiet, way too small, etc.</p>

<p>Definitely in at SF State, probably in at Mills, unlikely at Berkeley unless SATs are quite high, very unlikely at Stanford with your grades unless your SATs are above 2100…</p>
