<p>Thanks in advance and I will chance back</p>

<p>I’m also an incoming senior in CA. Your GPA is a little low, it would help if your weighted was higher, like above 3.9. Your SAT is in range for some of these schools.</p>

<p>NYU - low reach
USC - low reach
Cornell - reach
Pepperdine - match/high match
UCI - match
UCLA - low reach
UCB - low reach
UCSD - high match
UCD - high match
U of Penn - reach
Penn State - low match/match</p>

<p>The rest I’m not too familiar with to chance you on. Good luck! :)</p>
