Chance me for all the UCs?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

Hi, I’m a junior from Northern California. Could you please chance me for all the UCs? I don’t have a particular favorite yet, but I prefer NorCal since it’s closer to home :slight_smile:

NOTE: PLEASE BE AS BRUTAL/REALISTIC AS POSSIBLE

GPA
UW: 3.7 (top 10% of my class of about 750)
UC GPA (10 & 11): 3.95

SAT: haven’t taken yet, aiming for 2000+
ACT: composite is 29, will retake and aiming for 32+
SAT II: took World History, will take US History and Literature

Course Load (Honors and AP)
Freshman: English 1 Honors (no APs offered for freshman)
Sophomore: English 2 Honors, WHAP (only WHAP and AP Bio offered for sophomores and I don’t like science very much)
Junior: AP Lang, APUSH, AP Environmental Science
Senior: AP Government, AP Lit, AP Calc BC, AP Euro, AP Human Geography, and Physiology (which isn’t an AP but is considered one of the hardest classes at my school)

ECs
-volunteered at the summer reading program at the local library every summer since 8th grade (~300 hours)
-secretary of a local teen-run library organization for three years, will be co-pres next year, won “Heroes of District 5” award
-board member of my school’s California Scholarship Federation this year, will run for co-pres next year
-historian of Environment Club this year
-two years of Speech and Debate Club, will run for secretary next year
-one year in Odyssey of the Mind, won 2nd place in regional and top 10 in state competitions
-four years in Korean Club
-four years in Acts of Random Kindness Club

Personal Statements
Obviously, since I’m a junior, I haven’t written them yet, but I pride myself in my writing skills and believe that I can deliver enough passion to compose two pretty rocking pieces :slight_smile:

Also, I’m currently debating between majoring in Poilitical Science, History, or English Literature, but will probably end up double-majoring with a minor since I’m extremely indecisive. After undergrad, I plan on going to law school, so I seriously need help choosing a good UC :slight_smile:

Thanks so much! Have a lovely day (or night, since it’s currently 3 AM).

I forgot one thing!

Work Experience
I worked unpaid at a local tutoring center last summer and plan to again this summer.

UCB, UCLA and UCSD are probably out of reach unless you boost both your GPA and test scores significantly.

UCD, UCI and UCSB With a strong semester and your predicted test scores, you’ll probably make it.

UCSC, UCR, UCM - i think you’ll make it in easily.

Good luck

Agree with above poster^^^^
Good Luck

I disagree, I don’t think they’re “out of reach”. I actually think you have a fighting chance but It doesn’t hurt to get those grades up. (Easier said then done)

UCSD: low reach
UCD UCI UCDB: Match
UCR UCSC UCM: Low match
