<p>I’m Asian American male and I plan on taking the SAT once more next year if that helps</p>

<p>SAT score is too low for a number of the schools you’ve listed. You need to expand your list to include safeties. UCSB and Irvine are doable.</p>

<p>@"aunt bea"‌ What should be the goal for SAT? And not even UCLA and Berkley? </p>

5

<p>Where is your home state? If you are in CA, all UC are matches to low matches for you. Otherwise, UCLA would be a high match and Berkeley a low reach. The rest are mostly reach schools for you. Try to bring up your SAT score, particularly the CR section.</p>

6

<p>Students getting into UCLA and Berkeley are in the 2300’s</p>

7

<p>^ 2300 won’t hurt, but the average SAT for admitted oos student at Berkeley was 2154 (note this is average not median) vs 2032 for in state.

<p>^^75% SAT score for UCLA is 2100. Berkeley is 2180.</p>

<p>Georgetown might be a good match for you if you can up your SAT score. I got into Georgetown Early-Admission with a 2220 SAT (800 CR, 760 Math, 660 Writing). We have pretty similar extracurriculars, but I know Georgetown specifically mentioned my community service record as a large part of my admittance so you might want to up that a little. All the best!</p>
