Chance me for the UCs!

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>So, like a lot of people, I sent in my UC application in a couple of days ago, and I'm pretty anxious about my chances!</p>

<p>I applied to UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCD, UCSB, UCI
Major: Computer Science (EECS for Berkeley)</p>

<p>Quick Stats:
-SAT I: 2280 (800W 750CR 730M)
-SAT II: MathII-800(hopefully makes up for low Sat1) Chemistry-780 Physics-Expecting 770+
-Sophomore GPA: 3.3UW All honors/AP.
-Junior GPA: 4.0UW All honors/AP.
-Overall comes to a 3.9UC GPA. I am hoping the huge upward trend will help me.
-Essays: Counselor says they are excellent. </p>

<p>ECs:
-VP of a club that I am heavily involved in.
-160 community service hours
-Volunteered as a teacher for poor/impoverished children in the slums of Pakistan for two summers.
-Paid work experience for coding at a software development company. 40hours/week for 2 months. I'd say this is the highlight of my application.</p>

<p>Other things:
-Moved countries after sophomore year. Had a significant effect on my life. Talked about it in my essays.</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone who took the time to read this!</p>

<p>Your board scores and GPA seems very strong, although I’m not sure how you got a 3.3 sophomore year and pulled out a 3.9 cumulative… but I won’t ask. The SAT/SAT II are definitely above average. The only thing your app seems to be lacking are extracurriculars. Although you have some very strong ones, there are too few. If your essays and recommendations are as good as you say they are, my personal beliefs are as follows:</p>

<p>UCB: Reach
UCSB: Match-slight reach
UCLA: Slight reach
Rest: Match</p>

<p>Did you mean SD instead of SB? Since SD is much harder to get into. Anyways, thanks.</p>

<p>Anyone other opinions?</p>
