<p>Anything else I'm missing?</p>

<p>I'm pretty much set on Cal, and yes i know i posted this before but i had to make some changes and this forum wouldnt let me change after having posted for a certain time. </p>

<p>I'm looking around and i'm not detecting any trend in acceptance... Looking at one persons, it would seem that i could get in for sure... but then i saw someone else who got rejected from Cal for not much worse grades... all in all, im worried.</p>

<p>Looking at your scores and involvement I would say you have a decent chance. Nothing leftto do now but apply. If you can, try working on EC's a bit. Nobody cares about attendence for schools, I think.</p>

3

<p>You have a good shot at Berkeley. Test scores are above par, though your class rank might hurt you a little.</p>

4

<p>You should easily get into Berkeley, if you don't then that school has idiotic admissions policies because I know kids with SAT's of 1920 who have got in. But beware, there is stiff competition and course load is very intense. SO study hard at Cal-Berkeley</p>

5

<p>Class rank might hurt?</p>

<p>Cal doesn't ask for class rank.</p>

6

<p>decent chance. there's not much else for you to do.. so work on the essays.</p>

7

<p>3.92 UC GPA. If your fully weighted is 4.1 or lower, I would say it is a big reach.</p>

8

<p>fully weighted? If i weight all the APs from sophmore and Junior year, then i'd have around a 4.1, if thats wut u mean</p>
