- USC</p>

<p>The Sats are sorta low but I think you do have a shot at UCLA UC Berkeley and USC. I know the UC schools do take a look at community and background so that might help in your favor. </p>

<p>UCLA - High Reach
UCB - High Reach
USC - Mid Reach
I would apply to more schools, I have similar SATs with a 83/100.</p>
