<p>I'm a junior looking to apply to Cal Poly SLO, UWash, Purdue, UCB, UCI, UCSD, and USC.
SAT: 1980 (680 Writing, 670 Math, 620 Critical Reading)
GPA: 9th cumm: 3.5 (3.0 first semester, 4.0 second semester)
10th Cum: 3.9 (3.8 first semester, 4.0 second semester)
11th(projected weighted): 4.0 first, 4.0 second
(unweighted): worst case : 3.6 both semesters
AP: AP Calc AB
AP Phys B
EC'S: Kids Coach for martial arts, and I've won a few tournamnets.
Also, any OTHER colleges you might have in mind, I'm really unsure about college right now. The ones posted above are just recomendations I've had from other people. Thanks!</p>
<p>Which major? Where are you from?</p>
<p>Comp Sci, California</p>
<p>Cal Poly SLO: high match
UWash: high match
Purdue: match
UCB: reach
UCI: low reach
UCSD: low reach
USC: reach</p>
<p>You may want to consider adding a couple more solid matches and a safety to your list of schools. Even UCI would have to be considered a mid-match and not a slam-dunk. Apply to a couple more mid-tier UCs and SDSU. If OOS tuition is not a problem you might want to look at a school like Arizona State.</p>
<p>Cal Poly engineering:</p>
<p>Avg GPA: 4.08
Avg SAT: 1388 (out of 1600)
Avg ACT: 31</p>
<p>Cal Poly will be a reach, given your GPA and test score
Purdue : Reach (similar to Cal Poly)
UCI engineering: High match
UCB: High Reach
USC: High Reach
UCSD: Reach
UW: not sure</p>
<p>UCSD is solidly more challenging to get into than Cal Poly, followed by UCI,. And UCB is obviously harder to get into than UCSD.</p>
<p>What about for a place like UC Davis?</p>
