<p>good chance at UCSB, Cal Poly SLO, and UCD, but UCLA and USC are probably reaches. stanford is a very, very high reach (just like for most people). I don’t know much about LMU or santa clara, but I would look into UCSD and UCI as well, and Berkeley as a reach. To increase your chances, try and get over 2200 on your SAT, and make your ECs stand out. Show leadership in those clubs that you listed. Utilize a skill such as piano playing and for example, perform in front of the elderly at the senior center and in your personal statement talk about how it was so heartwarming to see them smile. Just an example, but show admissions officers your best characteristics and make sure you have multiple people read your essays. Oh, and make sure you challenge yourself during senior year. I will let u know if I have something you could chance.</p>

<p>Davis and Santa Barbara are good shots, but UCLA and USC are reaches. Cal Poly is a possibility. Stanford is a high reach, for anybody though. Other schools I’m not sure about.</p>
