Applying to Multiple UCs with low SAT high GPA

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>So I am applying to several colleges in California and planning to major in either biochemistry or computer science
My top colleges are UCLA/UCD but I am also applying to UCB,UCI,UCSD and Cal Poly</p>

<p>My stats are:
4.5 W College GPA 3.9 UW
1690 SAT (retaking tomorrow but might not be big improvement)
Decent Statement</p>

<p>EC:
STEM Computer Strand 4 years
JV track and field 1 year
250 Hours Community Service</p>

<p>What are my chances?</p>

<p>UCLA, UCB, UCSD : Reach.
UCD, UCI, (SLO or CPP?): Low reach. I’d say 1900+ could make it high match. CPP is a match though.</p>

<p>Calculate UCGPA with 8 semesters weighted capped. 4.1+ is competitive. Also, are you a resident of California and can you afford these UC’s? </p>

<p>Your EC’s are weak for LA and Berkeley and a computer science major is tough all around. </p>

<p>wow. Did you try the ACT?</p>

Great GPA and hopefully you can raise that SAT. </p>

<p>UCLA/UCB/UCSD: Reach
UCD/SLO: Low Reach
UCI: High Match (UCI favors GPA over test scores but still need at least 1900+)</p>

<p>CS is very competitive. Good Luck.</p>
