<p>UCB: high reach
UCLA: reach
UCSD: low reach</p>

<p>scores and gpa are too low, sorry</p>

<p>Hi, I’m a UC applicant as well. </p>

<p>UCB: reach
UCLA: low reach
UCSD: low reach</p>

<p>I feel like UCSD would be your best match though. And don’t be down about your scores. There are other strong aspects to your app :]</p>

<p>actually…</p>

<p>I think that UCSD does give points for ELC, but doesn’t guarantee admission…so you have the best chance at UCSD.</p>

<p>^look into what i just said to make sure it’s correct.</p>

<p>You’ve already posted this chance thread three times. Stop already.
You’ll find out in March. But my honest opinion? Your SAT scores are too low to get into any.</p>

<p>let’s be a happy family y’all :]</p>

<p>… Another “bad test taker”
Your stats are good, your test scores suck. Reaches all of them.</p>

<p>“1750 on my sats (i know low) 580 on math II, 530 on Bio”</p>

<p>If that line wasn’t there, I would’ve said that you’re in at all the schools in mentioned. But your test scores are wayyyyyyy too low to be competitive. So unfortunately, I don’t think you can get in. With your ELC, I’m sure you can get into Davis though.</p>

<p>uclagirl-what are your ACT scores?</p>

<p>I also come from an disadvantaged school/city, so I completely know how you feel regarding the high GPA/low test scores.
If it makes you feel any better, a student from the same city got into Berkeley with 1500’s on the SAT. 1540 or 1560 to be exact? I’m not sure, but it was in the local news, so I was surprised.</p>

<p>I recently got a 27 on my acts which is equivalent to a 1820-1860 on the SATs. Hopefully that’ll increase my chances.</p>

<p>Honestly, it’s really random. My friend got a 1760 on his SAT I, got a 3.02 GPA, only did soccer as an extracurricular activity. He got into UCLA and UC Berkeley as a Mechanical Engineer, but he got rejected from UCI, and UCSD. How? I don’t know. So you will still have a chance at UCLA and UC Berkeley but not guaranteed at all.</p>
