Chance me at UC Davis + other low tier UC's

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I just want to get this over with and have people give me an hones prediction of my chances. I'm currently a junior who was hoping for higher tier UC's, but I know now that it's impossible.</p>

<p>Ethnicity: Hispanic</p>

<p>Projected UW: 3.62 GPA (all 4 years)
Projected W: 4.05 GPA (all 4 years)</p>

<p>What killed me was my second semester of my sophomore year. I was going through some problems in my family and we even had to end up going to a family counselor. Basically, I ended up with 1 A, and the rest B's. I've taken the hardest classes available to me. I took 4 APs this year and ended up with a 4.23, since I got two Bs both semesters. </p>

<p>Projected Senior Schedule
AP Bio
AP Calc
AP Gov
AP Civics and Econ
AP Spanish Language
AP Lit</p>

<p>I'm taking all APs senior year to help boost my GPA, but apparently, colleges won't look at those grades, so I'm pretty disappointed. I plan to get all A's next year, I'll make sure to completely apply myself. I also heard that UCs only calculate your GPA using grades from 10th and 11th so I think I'm screwed.</p>

<p>UC UW: 3.48 (current)
UC W: 3.78 (current)</p>

<p>SAT: 1900 (going to retake)
ACT: 30 (also going to retake)</p>

<p>ECs:
Lifetime CSF member
FBLA for 3 years, projected secondary officer, participated every year
Science Olympiad 3 years, I've participated every year and done relatively well
Planning on establish NHS since our school doesn't have it.
Editor and writer for the school newspaper.
Part of organization that specializes in community service projects for local preserves and whatnot.
Varsity cross-country 1 year, planning to do track and CC next year.
300+ hours at local hospital, planning for internship.
Planning to get a job over the summer.
Spanish Honor Society, projected officer</p>

<p>AP Test scores: Dunno yet, but I think I did decent.</p>

<p>Also, I'm pretty sure I left some things out; I just can't remember everything.</p>

<p>I just want someone to be blunt with me. Don't even bother chancing for UCB, UCLA, or UCSD since I'm not getting into those. Am I basically screwed for UC's? If I write a good essay and improve EC's, will I have a remote chance at UC Davis? Would they even care if I took 10 AP classes in total because of my mediocre GPA?</p>

<p>Oops, forgot to say that I’m also in ELC as well since I’m in Cali. I don’t know if that helps.</p>

<p>Bro I screwed up Junior year, did 2 varsity sports and got all C’s in AP Chem and AP Calc and didnt pass the AP tests. My senior year I took 5 AP’s and did well in them and raised my gpa up to a 3.98 and got into Davis, although I was waitlisted I still got accepted.
Use this as an outline for yourself and dont be so hopeless, you have a very good shot at Davis:)</p>
