<p>Your EC’s are excellent and your SAT’s and ACT’s are good enough. GPA is ok. I’d say Berkeley would be an overall reach and UCLA a reach because of your major, otherwise your in at every other UC!</p>

3

<p>Decent ACT, excellent SAT IIs, decent GPA, rigorous courseload, impressive extracurriculars
Berkeley: reach
LA: reach
SB: low match (pretty much in)
SD: match</p>

4

<p>How can he be matched for SD but not SB?</p>

<p>I say UCSB, UCSD match and UCLA and UCB slight reaches.</p>

<p>Chance me back!</p>

<p>bump please :]</p>

<p>I don’t really know too much about UCs, but you seem like you’d have a great shot at all of them. Perhaps Berkeley and UCLA would be a bit of a reach?</p>
