Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I am really looking into private schools such as Santa Clara and University of Southern California. I know Stanford is a VERY HIGH reach but I'll still apply. What UC schools would be a fit for me? What about UC Berkely or UC Santa Barbara? (Just by looking at my statistics)</p>

<p>Concerning my SAT score, could a 1900 or 2000 w/ my statistics get me into USC?</p>

<p>Rising senior, 16 year old male</p>

<p>SATs
June: 1820 M:620 CR:600 W:600 w/9 essay</p>

<p>I will be retaking it again. I will not be taking any SAT Subject Tests.</p>

<p>GPA and academic rigor
Unweighted 3.8
Weighted 4.2</p>

<p>Junior Year
AP English Language
AP US History
Honors Pre-Cal</p>

<p>Senior Year
AP English Literature
AP Art History
AP Calculus AB</p>

<p>My school doesn't offer that many AP classes until JUNIOR year and I took 5 out of the 7 that we offer.</p>

<p>ECs
3 years of football, 1 year varsity over 600+ hours of practicing. We were Regional Champions in our portion of the state. ( I won't be playing football senior year)</p>

<p>Chinese Club 4 years. I was also a dancer/performer for our annual fundraising dinner.</p>

<p>Tutor at Kumon Learning Center (Since April of Junior year) I tutor kids ages 5-14. Twice a week for 5 hours. Over 100+ hours.</p>

<p>Volunteer on a hospital on air force base. I will only have 56 hours by the end of the summer but I think the football and job make up for that.</p>

<p>A tutor to high school students who did not pass the CAHSEE (california high school exit exam). For 2 weeks for 1 hour a day.</p>

<p>I know the ECs kinda look weak but football was major chunk of my time. I probably some more tutoring for kids in my high school.</p>

<p>To start. UC Berkeley and Stanford are really hard to get into, but personally, I don’t think you’ll get into Stanford.</p>

<p>Your SAT is really good and competitive for Santa Barbara and Santa Clara. University of Southern California isn’t that hard to get into, so I think you’ll be fine here also. Your GPA is really good too, and competitive. The AP’s you’ve taken are really good, and if you want to get into Berkeley, your scores need to be either 3, 4, or 5 and then you’re set. Your EC’s looks really nice, but I don’t know what your focus is. Doing activities that relate to your career goals is also an important factor when applying for colleges/universities. I’m not saying your EC’s have no value so don’t think that lol. </p>

<p>Overall, I think you have a good chance for the schools you’ve listed except of Stanford unfortunately, sorry. But keep on working hard Senior year, with the SAT and good luck. :)</p>
