I’m going to be a junior next year. I know its a bit early, but just want to see if I’m on track. I qualify for in-state in California.
GPA:
I’ve gotten all A’s Freshman and Sophomore year, so my current GPA is 4.00 unweighted, 4.26 weighted.

9th - Honors Algebra 2, Honors English 9, World History, Band, Biology, Spanish, PE,
10th - Honors English 10, AP Euro, AP Calc AB, AP Computer Science, AP Physics 1, Spanish, PE, Band
11th(Planned) - AP Eng Lang, APUSH, AP Calc BC, Honors Chemistry, Band, Spanish
12th(Planned) - AP Eng Lit, AP Gov, AP Macroeconomics, AP Statistics, AP Chem, AP Spanish, Band
Tests:
Got a 32 on my ACT last year, but I’m hoping to raise it to at least a 34, so pretend that’s what I got.
Haven’t taken the SAT, but got a 210 on the PSAT.
Took 4 AP tests this year
AP Calc AB(5), AP Physics 1(3), AP Euro(3), AP Computer Science(4) . Scores were much lower than I expected. Which of these should I plan to send to colleges?
Extracurriculars:
Cross Country in 9th grade, Science Olympiad, KEY Club, Programming Club, Spanish Club, no leadership positions though.
Went to a couple national festivals with school band and did very well.
Volunteering:
Animal Shelter
Food Pantry
Tutoring
KEY Club
I have about 200 hours so far.
Awards:
No major awards. I participated in a programming competition and got 3rd place, technology competition 1st place, awards for solos in band. (Will be more specific in actual application of course)
I think my extracurriculars/leadership is really weak. My GPA is very high (so far), and I think I can get test scores up. What UCs (UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCD, UCSD, UCSB specifically) do you think I have a chance at?
