<p>You'll probably get into UCSB, UCD, and UCSD. </p>

<p>UCB and UCLA are reaches, but tangible. Don't have your heart set on those two, but I'd say (considering you're a California resident) that if you wrote good enough essays, you stand a decent chance. </p>

<p>However, engineering kind of skews things. So I really wouldn't know.</p>

<p>Since your SAT is a bit low and you're applying to a competitive major, I'd say:</p>

<p>Berkeley: big reach
UCLA: reach
UCSD: slight reach
UCSB/UCD/Cal Poly: match</p>

<p>You have a good chance at UCSB, UCD, and UCSD. Don't count on LA/B though... it's possible but not probable.</p>

<p>im okay with ucla/ucb being reaches becuase i really want to go to cal poly</p>
