<p>bumpitybump! will chance back!</p>

<p>bump 10char.</p>

5

<p>I think you’ve got a chance for all but it might be a bit more of a reach for UC berkley. Damn your good!</p>

6

<p>I’d say UC Berkley and UCLA are reaches, but I think you have a good shot at the others. With strong essays/recommendations, you’ll be very competitive. Good luck and thanks for chancing me!</p>

7

<p>You already know that UC Berkeley and UCLA are reaches, but you have good chances for all the schools on your list. EC are amazing, SAT is pretty good. Good luck!</p>

8

<p>I’d agree with the others that Berkeley and ucla are reaches because they are for everyone especially out of states. However I’d say you’re in at the other schools. If I were you I’d consider uc San diego or uc Santa Barbara- they’re great west coast state schools where you’d have a solid chance of admission.</p>

<p>wow you’re ec are really good! you’re uw gpa is pretty good too! you didn’t say what your weighted one was though.
i think ucla and cal are slight reaches but you still have a good chance!
santa clara and seattle pacific seem like safeties to me and university of washington seattle seems like a target/safety.</p>

<p>bump 10charrrr</p>

11

<p>Your GPA and SAT are decent and you have very strong extracurriculars. UCB and UCLA are slight reaches/high match because they are more academic achievement-oriented but I think you still have a great chance of getting in. You should have no problems with the other schools. Good luck to you!</p>

<p>Chance back please (:</p>
