<p>Don’t worry, since you’re AA immigrant (fairly unique case), you will have a good chance at all of these schools, as long as you present yourself competently.</p>
<p>I think your in at UCSD UCI … UCB UCLA Low reach</p>

<p>Applying to: UCLA UCB (I know these 2 are so unlikely but i thought why not) UCSD UCSB UCD and UCSC</p>
<p>Goreh I’m Muslim too. Mashallah great extracurriculars. I think you’re in at all except for Berkeley and La. la is a low reach and Berkeley is low-mid reach. Each year it tends to fluctuate. Some years ucla is easier to get into, other years it’s Berkeley. iA khair.</p>
<p>oh Salam
Yeah I agree about UCLA and UCB, I feel like you will have a higher chance at UCB due to your personal situation, ethnicity etc. I know someone who was in a similar personal situation as you African American immigrant with similar stats and they were in at UCLA. UCSD though your in for sure a long with the slew of other UC’s. iA :)</p>
