<p>I'm going to be a senior this fall and I was really inteterested in UCI. I was wondering, from those of you who are either attending, or got admitted, what your SAT/ACT scores were. I'd like to compare them to mine to see what I should work on since I'm still taking a few more tests before I apply. Thanks! :)</p>

<p>I got a 2000, but high SAT =/= admission.</p>

<p>I went on a UCI tour this spring and the tour guide told us the average SAT scores for the incoming freshmen class of 07-08 was 1850ish. Of the people going to UCI this year from my high school, the majority of them had SAT scores of 1850-2000ish.</p>

<p>I had a 1720, but I had a high GPA, took Honors and AP classes, and had good e.c.</p>

5

<p>1950, 4.0 uc gpa</p>

6

<p>My SAT score was 1910</p>

7

<p>SAT was 1860. ACT score was 30.</p>

<p>Here is a link that gives the statistics for 2009: <a href=“http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/pdf/uci_chart.pdf[/url]”>http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/pdf/uci_chart.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Okay thanks a lot, this is quite reassuring. I’ve taken the SAT three times and my highest is a 1770. I really seem to struggle with the SAT and my parents want me to take it one more time senior year in the fall. I might be able to pull it up to a 1800 but I’m still iffy about taking it so many times. I’m aiming for a 29/30 on the ACT because I tend to do better on that. And my GPA as of junior year is about a 3.875.</p>

<p>lnsmith: Yeah my SATs are similar. What was your GPA?</p>

12

<p>I got rejected but got in by appeal/waitlist later…</p>

<p>my sat1 was 1700 and my gpa weighted was 4.13 with many ec’s and ap/honors.
If i could go back i’d improve that sat score :frowning: really kinda ruined my admissions process for irvine since i only got in a week or two ago</p>

<p>1810 sat, 28 act, 3.81 uc gpa</p>

14

<p>alkaalice: I had a 4.2 for my sophomore and junior year. I hadn’t done so great my senior year (which was a 3.6)</p>

15

<p>That’s the SAT score I’m aiming for. However if I do better on my ACT (like a 28/29) and don’t retake my SAT, would that look better? Because isn’t a 28 higher than a 1770 SAT score? </p>

<p>I just feel like I have a big shot at doing better on the ACT than the SAT</p>

16

<p>2240 but im an outlier</p>

<p>1900 would be a good benchmark given decent EC/GPA/essay</p>

17

<p>2280 3.1 gpa -__- typical smart but lazy kid syndrome</p>

18

<p>I had a 4.5 uc gpa with a 2050</p>
