<p>Do you know what you want to major in yet? I recommend taking the SAT again, and shoot for 2100+ to turn some reaches into matches. Try to get more leadership positions in your ECs for next year as well. Your GPA looks fine; the average UC GPA is 4.1 :)</p>

<p>UCI match
UCLA low reach
UCD match
UCSD high match/low reach</p>

<p>Im thinking of majoring in physics and going the pre-med route or majoring in computer science. Not sure yet.</p>

<p>With an unweighted gpa of 3.75, I doubt that your UC (capped) GPA is 4.3. 4.3 is probably your uncapped WGPA. I think your UC (capped) GPA is around 4.0, which is below average.
Your SAT score is unimpressive, but fortunately for you, the UCs do not seem to care much about SAT scores. If 3.75 is your unweighted GPA and 4.3 is your uncapped WGPA, then your GPA is too low. The UCs really care about GPA. Your class rank is really high though, so that may help you.
UCD - 60%
UCI - 60%
UCSD - 40%
UCLA - 10%.</p>

<p>I did not get accepted by any of the schools you listed. Here are my stats.
UWGPA: 3.7
WGPA: 4.3
UCGPA: 4.0
SAT: 2300
SAT subject: 800, 740
IB classes (3 HLs and 3 SLs)
Rejected by: UCB (computer science), UCLA (computer science), UCSD (computer science)
Waitlisted by: UCD (civil engineering), UCI (computer science)</p>

<p>With those grades, score, and EC, i’m sure you can get into UC Irvine. However, you need to raise up your sat score if you want to get into UCLA. I’m not too sure about UCSD or UC davis though… i don’t think it would hurt to take the sat again and raise up your score, unless you’re taking it for like the 4th time, then don’t take it.
if you want to major in physics, bio, or computer science at a UC school, you need to be competitive cus those majors are popular and rigorous at almost any UC school.</p>

<p>your EC looks great but i agree with @runorrun‌ , you should try to get a leadership position! ;)</p>

<p>have you received any award? make sure you list them all on the UC app!! they will help!</p>

<p>i think you should apply to UC riverside or UC santa cruz as your back-up schools, just in case anything happens. with your grades and gpa, you will definitely get into UCR and UCSC. </p>

<p>you should keep in mind that UCs are really unpredictable so if you do get rejected by any of them, don’t take it personally! it’s their loss! </p>

<p>finish off your junior year strong! good luck! :)</p>

<p>I think your chances are good at those universities except perhaps UCLA. </p>

<p>@‌Mangiafuoco
Is it because you have no extracurricular activities, or did you just not list them? </p>

7

<p>I have a few ECs. I did not list them here because I want to keep my anonymity.</p>

<p>If you increased your SAT to 2100 then you would have a pretty good shot at UCD

<p>@calilove77‌ That was my first time taking the SAT. I plan on taking it again in June hoping to get around a 2100. I really want to get accepted to UCI at least, I hope by raising my SAT score I’ll have a better chance.</p>

<p>@hyperbomb
I think you will likely be accepted to UCI.

As you can see there, the average SAT score is slightly below 2100. </p>
