<p>dnduswo:</p>

<p>Are your 3.5 and 3.8 GPAs weighted or unweighted? Also, when you say "average SAT score and average ECs", do you mean they are average with respect to UCLA applicants or UCI applicants or with respect to the rest of your high school?</p>

<p>oh i m sorry..

<p>UCSD: Slight Reach</p>

7

<p>thank yo very much flopsy!!
if i get into ucla......................</p>

<p>I wouldn't worry now if you're only a sophomore. Just relax and enjoy the rest of high school.</p>

9

<p>If you have a 3.8 unweighted GPA, then I think you have a good chance at all the UC's :)</p>

10

<p>thanks every one...</p>

11

<p>in or out of state</p>

12

<p>i m in state</p>

13

<p>and gpa is unweighted..
i don have and honor and ap yet but i'm gonna take losts of them in junior and senior.....</p>

<p>Don't underestimate UCI... last 2004, my friend who got around 4.0+ got into UCB, UCLA, UCSD but rejected by UCI. We all make fun of him because of that but fortunately, he is attending UCB now... :D so yeah, we still don't know why UCI rejected him.</p>

15

<p>Because UCI knows that he would not want to go there, therefore, they gave his spot to someone who would most likely go there.</p>

16

<p>I dunno if UCs work like that, UCI usually offers kids with higher stats their campus-wide honors thing.</p>

17

<p>dnduswo: you cannot PREDICT a SAT score....</p>

18

<p>well, i think nobody can predict the socre
i guess what i meant was assume, or expect..not predict!!
predict: verb[T] to say that sth will happen in the future
expect: verb[T] to think or "believe" that sb/sth will come or that sth will happen</p>

19

<p>sorry if that came off harsh... its just basically.. i wouldn't include that in your "chances" post because the truth is... you don't know... and you don't want to have false expectations. (although i don't doubt that you're smart)</p>

<p>If you took the PSAT, that could be used (somewhat) as an indication of how well you'll do on the SAT.</p>
