<p>Are you sure you want to be an engineer? I’m sorry but a 450 math score just doesn’t seem very engineer-like.</p>

4

<p>my teachers say I can maybe get into Berkeley but I think they are just too sympathetic.</p>

5

<p>Well the SAT average at Berkeley is around 2050 I believe, so it would be a substantial reach. Sorry…</p>

6

<p>what about journalism?</p>

7

<p>Well it’s probably just as much of a reach. Taking AP Lang and Lit is good, how did you do on the AP test for Lang?</p>

8

<p>Well I was sick in May I did horrible I got a 1
but I know UC Berkeley is a VERY HIGH reach I just want to get into a UC</p>

9

<p>I’d say you can get into Riverside and probably Merced as well.</p>

10

<p>Majoring in Journalism or Engineering?</p>

11

<p>i think you could get into santa cruz if you get around 1550 on this sat, because your gpa is above their average…</p>
