<p>except berkley all are match to high match</p>

<p>UCLA: reach
UCB: reach
UCSB: match/high match
UCI: match/high match</p>

<p>You have a chance to get into UCSB and UCI.
Berkeley and UCLA are a reach but depending on how well written your personal statement is then i think you have a chance. </p>

<p>Please chance me too!:
I’ll be applying to UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC Santa Cruz, and maybe UC Santa Barbara. I feel like UCs are a long shot with my type of grades and test scores …)</p>

<p>GPA: 3.81</p>

<p>SAT I: 1510 (score is not so great when i took it the first time. i’m taking it again this December in hopes of getting at least a 1700 or higher.)</p>

<p>ACT: 23 </p>

<p>Extracurricular:
-Treasurer of Math Club/ member since sophomore year
-Secretary of French Club since sophomore year
-Member of Midnight Judge (newspaper at my high school, contributed art pieces to post up)
-Volleyball (JV freshman-sophomore year, Varsity in my senior year. didnt do it junior year but i regretted it badly)
-Member of National Honors Society
-Volunteered in a convalescent center in my neighborhood
Have been involved in AIDS Walk since sophomore year </p>

<p>I’m worried because my SAT score is really weak and i keep thinking that i wouldn’t be able to get into a UC because of that. I’m really aiming for UC Davis though. Is it a long shot?</p>

<p>poniiko, I think all the UCs (except riverside, which is a match) are low reaches for you because of your SAT/ACT scores. Try retaking them to improve your chances!</p>

6

<p>Do you claim CA residency? Sorry if I missed it, but I’d say all except UCB which is a low reach, are on target for admission.</p>

<p>iflyplanes - no, my state of residency is Minnesota.</p>

<p>Santa Barbara and Irvine are matches, UCLA is a low reach, Berkeley is a reach. Good essays always help. </p>
