Chance me for the UC schools.

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey, UC Davis and Irvine are my top choices.</p>

<p>I'm currently a junior.
Average GPA: 3.65 weighted (Not including the first semester of junior year, but will likely be a 3.8. I plan on getting at least a 4.3 second semester because it's one of my last chances to impress.) You may think my GPA is low for unweighted but I took 2 honors classes last year.</p>

<p>My junior year classes are:
Honors American Lit
Honors Spanish 3
AP chemistry
AP US History
Algebra 2/Trig
Comparative Religion</p>

<p>Probable Senior year classes:
AP English
AP Comp Sci
AP Physics
AP Macro Econ
AP Gov
AP Calc
Religion</p>

<p>EC's: Travel team basketball, Varsity Volleyball, Yearbook (Editor), Robotics (President),
Filipino Club, Key Club, Food
Club, Dance team, CSF, NHS, Altar Serving, Hospital Volunteer</p>

<p>I have about 250 service hours within the past year.
I got a 2000 on my PSAT.
Hopefully I can match that score on the Jan SAT. I'll be taking Subject tests in match 2
and chemistry. I'll also be applying to University of Washington, Penn State,
Boston College, and Stanford (that's a reach, I know, but I'll try). Some others I'll also be
trying: USF, USD, and Cal Poly. Some extra facts: I've taken part in a couple of these schools' engineering outreach programs as well because ive heard they help on college apps. I believe ive risen from adversity in my life since I was a child. Could you guys give me some ideas about these
schools along with the UC schools.</p>

<p>Jpballer87, I have not heard of UC Berkeley accepting high school sophomores in the past - are you in some special program???</p>

<p>Hey, That is not my essay. It is my brothers and he told me to put it up because his computer is not working. I applied for class of 2010. I got in with 32 ACT, 1950 SATI, Many EC’s, Honors/AP, Stellar essay, and good interview.</p>

<p>

An interview at Berkeley? Hmmmm… there are no admissions interviews at Berkeley, only scholarship interviews. </p>

<p>Please note that the College Confidential terms of service prohibit you from posing as different people. As you can see, once you do, everything you post is suspect.</p>

<p>How kind you are to follow your brother’s command without question, and how unfortunate he could not use your computer to log into his own account. As a Berkeley student, I would think you could have offered your brother some advice on that essay before posting it as it was… especially since your own essays were “stellar.”</p>

<p>People these days. You need to realize that everything doesn’t have to be complicated. I just put up the THREAD for him cause he doesn’t have an account. He asked me to proofread his essay so I put it on here. Calm down, I had an interview because of scholarships. Lay off “LameMom”. Gosh!</p>

<p>If you are going to continue to claim to be a Berkeley student, you might want to adjust the age on your profile. You currently have yourself listed as 15 years old…</p>

<p>

Of course you did…</p>
