ACT: (also iffy) 31 english, 30 reading, 28 math, 27 science = 29 composite</p>

<p>I usually get 31/32s on practice tests for act but I was really sick that day...do you think I still can retake it in December or is that cutting it too close?</p>

<p>You should be able to get into the Mid-Tier UCs as-is. </p>

<p>For Top 25 Unis such as UCLA, UCB and, USC it’ll all depend on your personal statement(s).</p>

<p>I’ve read enough personal statements to know that is impossible to give a good estimate without seeing the applicant’s statement. Most people’s statements absolute garbage; just terrible. Poor statements kill chances at competitive universities. </p>

<p>Your grades and test scores aren’t the best, but they are not auto-reject either. So it’ll be all about your statement for those schools.</p>

9

<p>I think you’ll be able to get into UCSD, UCI, UCR, UW BU and SDSU for sure.
UCLA is a bit iffy.</p>

<p>Please chance me too!

<p>UCLA and USC are the only two that are reach; the SAT subject scores are definitely a strong point…</p>
