State Forums
1

Hey all, just got some new stats and would like to see how I stand against the UCs. Applying to all but Riverside and Merced.

Stats:

  • Current Class Rank 25/366
  • ACT (plus writing): 34
  • SAT II Math II: 730
  • SAT II Bio E: 650

Avg High School GPA: (UC weighted GPA): 4.18, may be slightly higher due to Honors Chemistry being approved by UC; Unweighted: 3.88
Taking 8 APs total by senior year; expecting AP scores to be mostly 4s maybe some 3s; there were 12 or so APs offered to us total throughout high school; 1 UC approved Honors Course, other non-approved honors as well

EC (By senior year predictions):

  • 3 years swim (2 years varsity)
  • Founder of History Club (and president therefore)
  • 3 Years Leo’s Club
  • 3 Years NHS
  • Volunteer Tutor (Through NHS)
  • Have a job as a Math Tutor (recent)
  • 150+ Hours of Volunteer work at Hospital
  • Some awards such as Summa Cum Laude, Bronze PVSA, AP Scholar

Basically tell me where the following schools go within the Safety-Target-Reach spectrum; please specify if high or low as well.

Thanks to all who reply. Done some research as well, willing to chance back (just post CC link).

As a side note, my major of choice is Biomedical Engineering, my alternative major being some form of biology probably.

You are a competitive applicant.
UCSC: Low match
UCD/UCI/UCSB/UCSD: Match
UCLA/UCB: High Match only because they are tough admits

Good luck
