below average student seeking out help!!!

<p>Hi i am currently applying to these uc schools

2. UC irvine (my #1 choice, i hope i get in)
3. UC riverside
4. UCSB
5. UC Davis</p>

<p>GPA: 3.3</p>

<p>My sat is score is: 1860 (not very good, 2nd time taking it)
- taking sat 2's in Dec. sigh</p>

<p>i took a total of 7 ap classes and have gotten fairly ok grades on all of them. at least i passed them all lol.</p>

<p>-AP bio
-AP chem (3 on ap test lol)
-AP calc (4 on ap test)
-AP calc BC (4 on ap test)
-AP european history</p>

<p>currently taking in senior year
AP Gov
AP Environmental Science</p>

<p>hmm ec

<p>Guys i know it looks like i have no chance (and its probably true), im just making an attempt anyway. I just want some honest feedback because honestly i doubt i can get into any UC, but yea at least i know the truth instead of walking into this system blindly.</p>

<p>thank you for your advice.</p>

<p>Yeah, the GPA is definitely going to hurt you. I think SD is a reach and the other middle tier UCs are slight reaches. Oh and riverside is a match. </p>

<p>Well, don't lose hope, I think you might get into one of the middle UCs (Irvine, SB or Davis).</p>

<p>sullivan, I've seen tons of people get in with your kind of stats, though it might seem like a stretch, but at least I can guarantee that you can get into UC riverside.</p>
