Do you guys think I can get into UCSB, UCSC, UCR?

UCR could go either way and I think the others are pretty unlikely.

I think Merced is your best shot.

Hopefully you applied broadly.

Goodl luck.

I agree with @NCalRent, that your UC GPA puts you out of the running for the majority of the UC’s. Your SAT scores are within range for several of the schools but since UC’s are very GPA focused, slacking off Sophomore/Junior year is impacting your chances. I hope you applied to several Cal states so you have some choices come Spring.
