and any other engineering or medical colleges within CA.</p>

<p>Thanks !!</p>

<p>P.S. How hard is it to get into EECS? Can any current/former EECS-ers post their GPA and SAT?</p>

<p>If you are in-state (and you appear to be), you shouldn't have any problem getting in at the UCs, but maybe not in engineering, which is their toughest major to get into. The fact that you took so many AP courses helps. Just make sure you do well in the AP tests going on this week. </p>

<p>P.S. The UCs only count the sophomore and junior grades, so your GPA as listed is way off. Also, the UCs cap the weighted GPA at 8 extra grade points tops--so your 4.44 W is way higher than how the UCs will compute the UC GPA. Also, the PE course in the sophomore year doesn't count in the computation, either.</p>

<p>Go to the pathways website for more info on how to properly compute your UC GPA. Then compare this to Berkeley's average of 4.19 UC GPA and 2009 SAT total for comparison--then compare it to 4.29 GPA and 2080 SAT for engineering majors and you'll see how you compare.</p>

<p>Here's the actual website you need for the admissions data and UC GPA calculation:
<a href="http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/freshman/state_eligibility.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/undergrad_adm/paths_to_adm/freshman/state_eligibility.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>As far as Stanford and Caltech, I'd say maybe you'd get in, but probably not, since the SAT scores are too low at this time. You might consider taking the ACT and see if you do better on that test.</p>

<p>sorry,f but you have no chance</p>

How about you say a reason why instead of spouting comments?</p>
