chance me plz for ucla(nervous wreck)

[bohemiandaisy]

<p>I currently have a 4.7 UC gpa and am ranked No. 4 in my school. I have all A's and no B's and am in the most competitive program at my school that allows us to skip a year(which is why I took US and Am.Lit in 10th grade)</p>

<br>

@""

<p>I took all honors courses in 9th grade(no APs) In 10th grade took: AP Bio Honors Alg II AP US Hist H Am Lit Phys. Ed(required for grad so had to take it) H French 2 In 11th: AP Psych AP european hist. H math analysis/AP Calc A AP English Lit Advanced Orchestra H French 3 In 12th, I plan on taking AP Calc BC, AP French, AP Gov, Honors Chemistry, Advanced Orchestra, and Play Production. Also, I have been attending summer school at my local community college consecutively for the past 2 years-I have taken Child Development, Sociology, Business Law, and English 101. I plan on taking Statistics and English 102 this summer.</p>

<p>SAT SCORES total: 2080 Critical Reading: 750 Math:570(I think my biggest weakness on app However, I do not want to retake the test!! My math score always remains stagnant in practice tests( math makes me nervous, I HATE it) and I am VERY burned out by SAT-I have raised my score by 500 pts after studying for a year(from 1670 to 2080)) Writing: 760 (Essay received a 10) SAT Subject: Bio: 790 SAT Subject: US Hist: 760</p>

<p>As far as Extracurriculars go, I've had a big focus on my aspirations in Politics. I volunteered 40 hrs for the campaign, am youth chair of my region for Republicans of the Valley and am president of the Young Republicans for my county and am president of the Political Awareness Club at school. I plan on interning this summer for a Congressman. I went to Shakespearean acting for two summers(a passion of mine), have won an award for an oil painting I have done, played tennnis for my community(not at school because I could not fit it in my schedule) and play cello for my school's orchestra. At school, I am president of two other clubs: French Club and Music Appreciation Club. I am also a devoted member of CSF Key Club, and Knights and Ladies( a club that caters to doing community service exclusively to the school by cleaning up the campus and helping out with events, etc). Also, I am starting a Red Cross Youth Club next year. I have 200 hours of community service(so far-aim to have 400) that include working for the American Cancer Society, Operation Gratitude, working for my community center, Red Cross, and assisting the elderly in a senior citizens' home. !</p>

<p>Thank you </p>

<br>

<p>P.S. on the application, do i have to state how many years i have done something because i only started the red cross, american cancer society, and assisting the elderly this year(am a junior) and only joined orchestra in junior year
(couldnt do so before because it conflicted w/ my schedule although i have been playing for 7 years under a tutor). Will this work against me or should I just state how many hours( for examply 100 for the cancer society )and not even mention the length. I will most certainly state the length of all my clubs, the fact that i have oil painted for 10 years and have played tennis for 8, done shakespearean acting for 2 years, and working for my community center for a long time as well. Will that be okay?</p>

<p>Did you only apply to UCLA?</p>

<p>I would say you have a good chance. Your stats are almost the same as mine and I got into CAL. I don't know about UCLA, but they're pretty much similar.</p>

[bohemiandaisy]

<p>im only a junior-i apply next year, lol. My heart is just really bent on UCLA.</p>

<p>I'm also applying for UCSD, USC, UC Irvine, UC Davis, Loyola(safety), Pepperdine(safety) and Washington State University(safety- i have family in seattle, only reason im applying)</p>

<p>well, you’re looking good for any uc. </p>

<p>… but how do you have a 4.7 uc gpa? that’s impossible, considering you can only get a max of two honors/ap credits in soph and junior year.</p>

[KoreanBoi92]

<p>It’s possible, my cousin got in with 4.5 or whatever the highest possible gpa is, 2250 SAT/34ACT, 750+ SAT II’s, but her only extracurriculars were varsity tennis. So you have a decent chance.</p>

[ruskie]

<p>you can not have a 4.7 GPA… Yes they do ask how many years you have done an EC and how many h/w w/y. You have a good chance, the essays will probably determine the result.</p>

[bohemiandaisy]

<p>I take college courses that are UC transferrable-perhaps that’s why GPA is so high?Anyways, my college counselor showed me my UC gpa on her computer, it stated 4.69. </p>

<p>As far as stating the hours and the years of each community service, does a year for each volunteer activity look good?all my community service took place in only my junior year, but everything else is quite longer. Is that okay?</p>
