Am I Good?

<p>Okay I'm a California Resident.</p>

<p>I'm going into my junior year and I'm taking a super hard course load next year. With the uc cap, my gpa drops. But I'm wondering if it is significant enough to really hurt my chances.</p>

<p>Junior Year Classes: AP Calculus, AP US History, AP English, HL Chemistry, HL Spanish, and Journalism</p>

<p>I know I will get A's in spanish, calculus, and journalism, but if i get b's in all of the others my uc gpa is 3.83.</p>

<p>If I dropped 2 down to college prep I will most likely get a 4.0 uc gpa.</p>

<p>I want to just take my chances and go for the tough schedule, but i'm worried I will get rejected from my favorite schools.</p>

<p>I love UCSB and I really want to go there. I also plan to apply at UCLA, UCSD, UCD, and UCI.</p>

<p>Now according to my psat i should get a 1880 on the sat, so if that were to happen what would be my chances with an 1880 and a 3.83?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>not good. your SAT should be around 2000-2100 especially for UCSD. (i know from accepted friends and staff members from those colleges--got connections u know ;) you have to have an o.k amount of extra-curriculars (a.k.a sports, various clubs, and ofcourse community service hours). You have to have good teacher reccomendations and a good application essay. Then you are in totally!</p>

<p>UC's Get Hyphy:</p>

<p>UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Match</p>

<p>What is HL class?</p>
