<p>Despite your amazing ECs and courseload, your GPA and SAT scores are pretty low(except if you really get a 2200 in Dec- then congrats!) since the UC highly based on these scores. (that’s why there’s the UC grading system)
Plus, your ethnicity and the school cutting budget this year is going to greatly effect your chances. </p>

<p>hope that helps</p>

<p>IT definitely does! Thanks a lot! :)</p>

4

<p>while i agree with archi’s assessments, your ethnicity will not help or hurt you at all. it is not considered in UC decisions</p>

5

<p>They say it doesn’t affect you, but there are so many asians within the UC system (I’m asian, btw.) and it’s not like we’re an underrepresented minority, anymore.</p>

6

<p>There are so many asians because asians have performed in high school in a way that pleases UC admissions committees. It could be 95% asian and that would not give an asian a lesser shot. It would be ILLEGAL for them to consider race.</p>

<p>Your EC’s are great, but your GPA is a bit low for the mid and top tier UCs. I’m sure you’ll get accepted into UCR, UCM, and UCSC. UCI, UCSB, and UCD are slight reaches, and UCSD, UCLA, and UCB are high reaches. Good luck in getting into UCs! :]</p>
