Your chances aren’t too great tbh. You could potentially get in, but I got wait listed from UCI with similar stats.
I think your SAT is light but, ECs and course rigor really strong. It could go either way.
I’m not trying to be rude but I looked at your stats @ Riverside thread and there is a .6 difference between me and your GPA while taking 8 more AP Courses as long as having ECs…?
Thanks everyone else though.
SAT is kind of light, I agree. However, it looks like a match. Feel free to look at my stats and discredit me though.
I would say your stats equal the average stats of UCI accepted students. ECs also seem pretty strong, so I guess a lot of the decision would depend on your essays! UCI acceptances also just started coming out a couple of days ago. Good luck. 
Anyone feel free to chance me for Cal Poly SLO:
