<p>Your GPA is absolutely atrocious. I think you're in everywhere except UCLA.</p>

3

<p>it's def. the killer. hopefully my essays will help smooth stuff out at cal/ucla/others. </p>

<p>oh btw, low income fam.</p>

4

<p>bump.......</p>

5

<p>Match for all but UCLA, BC and Cal. You should probably get into most of them, but UCLA, BC, and Cal are high reach, high fit/low reach, and high reach, respectively.</p>

6

<p>bump....</p>

<p>in the meantime, i'll go eat lunch. i'm starved</p>
