<p>bump (sorry)</p>

<p>Bump your SAT by 100 points and your chances get much better for Cal and UCLA and BME at SD. I think you’re easily into the others.</p>

<p>Can your UC GPA really be 4.6? You need to cap the weighted classes at 8 semesters.</p>

4

<p>UCB UCLA - low reach (SAT scores)
UCSD - match
UCD UCSB UCI - match/low match</p>

<p>@Waverly I’m not exactly sure, my transcript says my UC GPA is 4.6, but it’s probably 4.5 or something; not that big of a deal. </p>

<p>So basically if i break this SAT (like 2000 barrier?) my UCB and UCLA chances look good (and alot better) right?</p>

6

<p>2050 is average for Cal and LA. The average is higher for engineering and impacted science majors. So the 100 points would make you more viable, not give you a good chance.</p>

7

<p>I’m applying as biochem for Cal and LA; when i click the major choice, it doesn’t appear as impacted. If i apply as a nonimpacted science major would that be a better chance?</p>

<p>I basically have the same thought as refreshe4.
The main thing is your SAT scores.</p>

<p>The GPA is awesome (4.6 for UC GPA seems too high though). If you can get your SAT score up by like 100-200 points, your chances at LA and Berkeley would be much better. I’d say you are pretty much in at the other schools. Good luck!</p>

<p>Chance me back please (:</p>

<p>Your GPA is very high, but your SAT is kind of low. UCB, UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, UCI, UCD is a high reach, high reach, reach, match, match, match, respectively. If you can get your SAT up it will help your chances tremendously. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>Yes, better chance by far if major is not impacted.</p>

12

<p>UC GPA is capped at 4.4, they only accept 8 semesters of weighted classes.</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback guys, I guess I’m cringing on that SAT score >.> I ended up applying as biochem for SD, LA, and Berk; I’m relatively sure that’s not an impacted major right? Wanted to increase my chances (even if it is only by a little)</p>
