Chance me for UC/CSU average student

<p>Hi, I'm an average asian student in 12th grade of high school</p>

<p>23 ACT
1570 SAT
4th decile (711 students)
3.45 weighted 10-12
3.35 unweighted 10-12
3.53 weighted total
3.47 unweighted total</p>

<p>Major selected: Computer Science/Computer Engineer</p>

<p>UC irvine?
UC santa barbra?
UC santa cruz?
cal poly san luis obispo?
san jose state?</p>

<p>Your unweighted without freshman year being lower than overall is definitely not a point in your favor, neither is the ever so slight difference between your unweighted and weighted, which suggests a lack of AP classes.</p>

<p>UC Irvine - Reach
UCSB - Reach
UCSC - Match
Cal Poly - Low Reach
San Jose State - Safety</p>

<p>You’ll need to kill the rest of the application, as well as a little luck to get into UCI, UCSB, or Cal Poly.</p>

<p>Do you mind if you read my personal statement to give me an idea of how much of a reach those UC’s will be for me? Because i believe my personal statement might secure my position into this UC’s but I’m not 100% sure… Also, i realized my school grades were bad that’s why I didn’t apply to the other UC’s.</p>

<p>UCI: Reach
UCSB: Reach
UCSC: Match
Cal Poly: Reach
SJSU: Low match</p>

<p>Are you sure SJSU is my low match??? i also got denied for early admission by Cal Poly</p>

<p>Bump 10000</p>

<p>UC irvine: reach
UC santa barbra: reach
UC santa cruz: high match
cal poly san luis obispo: high match
san jose state: match</p>

<p>Chance back?

<p>BUmp 100000</p>

<p>UC irvine: reach
UC santa barbra: low reach
UC santa cruz: reach (Really good engineering school)
cal poly san luis obispo: high match
san jose state: match</p>

<p>I am sorry but engineering schools are very competitive. UCs dont really look at majors except the engineering schools, which means it is very hard to get in. If you applied as differnet majors, you could have a little better chance. Sorry, but your ACT/GPA are low for the colleges you chosed. Maybe try other safety schools??? Purdue?</p>

<p>-Chanced back:)</p>

<p>Thank you for chancing me back :] yea I know that engineering school’s are really competitive but i do take a class currently called Cisco Networking that allows me the chance to get a cert</p>

<p>Here are some rough estimates:
UCI - Reach
UCSB - Reach
UCSC - High Match
Cal Poly SLO - Reach
SJSU - Match</p>

<p>I hope you have some safety schools. You may want to also consider going to CC then transferring to a CSU or UC.</p>

<p>

What? This doesn’t make any sense. UCSB is definitely more selective than UCSC, so I’m not sure how UCSB could be a low reach, but UCSC a reach. UCSC may be a “really good engineering school” (all perspective of course), but UCSB is surely stronger/better than UCSC in engineering, and overall.</p>

<p>Well I do have csu east bay as my back up currently and if not i have a CC that will accept loads of credits that I have accumulated from my school.</p>

<p>All the schools cited are a reach except for SJS which is probably a match.</p>
