<p>Weighted GPA isn’t really helpful, since we don’t know how your school weights. Do you know your UW GPA or class rank?</p>

<p>my school weighs for honors and APs. my unweighted is 3.0</p>

<p>oh and my school doesn’t rank</p>

<p>The 3 UCs are reaches, here is about what you’ll need for each UC, though you will get into M or R:</p>

<p>[UC</a> Admissions Statistics](<a href=“http://www.ophs.opusd.k12.ca.us/uc_admissions_statistics.htm]UC”>http://www.ophs.opusd.k12.ca.us/uc_admissions_statistics.htm)</p>

<p>WashU is not within reach. For Cal Poly, you would have a chance at some majors, but not business, engineering or architecture.</p>

<p>oh i recalculated my uw gpa and it’s a 3.2.</p>

<p>but thanks :)</p>

<p>If you’re a cali native, maybe UCD also University of Oregon… those would be matches. otherwise the test scores don’t match up. I know a lot of schools dont have clear cut-offs, but I dont see JV water polo for 3 years being that hook you would need. is there anything else we should know that college officials might take into consideration?</p>
