Your numbers look good, but your ACT is more competitive than your SAT. As a bioengineering major, a 690 in math will be a bit low for UCLA and Berkeley. Not taking calc your senior year could also cost you. Do you have any leadership positions in extracurriculars? Anything else to set you apart? As a high-income, Asian in-state applicant, you fit the mold perfectly for both schools…I’d say you have a chance of getting in but don’t get your heart too set on either one; both schools will turn down applicants more qualified than you. Good luck!!

Chance back? :slight_smile: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1751707-chances-for-yale-tufts-wesleyan.html?new=1

@ffina23‌ thanks for the input. I know that both schools are a long shot, but I’m getting desperate amongst all these rejections. I took Calc during my junior year, and I was a leader of the social media team of vision literacy, a non profit organization that teaches adults English.
