Chance Me: USC, UCLA, UCB, NYU

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I applied to the following schools:
UCs: UCI, UCSB, UCSD, UCLA, UCB
NYU Stern
USC Marshall
Johns Hopkins (mathematical statistics)
University of Michigan (accepted EA to LSA economics major)

Please tell me whether you think those are reaches, matches, etc.

SAT (M/CR/W): 2230 (770/770/690) E: 8
superscore: 2260 (770/770/720) E: 8
ACT (M/R/E/S): 34 (34/34/34/34) W: 26 (9/9/9/9)
SAT IIs: Math II (800), Chemistry (760)
GPA (UW/W): 4.83/4.33 :frowning: (I took the most advanced courses offered at my school and was one year ahead in math, took AP Calculus BC during my junior year, H Precalculus my sophomore year, and so on. All of my Bs were in history and english courses except for freshman year)
I believe my UC GPA is only 4.09. My weighted GPA for 10-11 is 4.56 though if that helps.
AP Scores: Calc BC (5), APUSH (4), Lang (4), Chem (3), World History (didn’t pass lol)
quick question: Should I send AP Scores? I haven’t sent mine to most of the schools I am applying to…
ECs are very lacking to be honest. I was in marching band for four years but never had any leadership position. I did a few clubs but no real dedication or commitment. I plan to do a business internship in second semester. I sell clothes online and have made over $1500 but I don’t know if colleges would consider that an EC. I also have a youtube channel where all of my videos have over 50K views but I only have like 8 videos.

I realize that many of the schools I am applying to are reach schools but I would appreciate it very much if you could chance me! Thank you(:

Also I forgot to add:

Essays: I would give one 7/10 and the other 8/10
My supplementals were average.
Letter of Recs were probably average because I am not close with my teachers.

You’ve got a good application, even without the EC’s (although those could have been the icing on the cake). You have a good shot at all the UC’s… but UCLA is definitely a reach. USC is also a slight reach, but the rest of the UC’s should be slight matches. I would have said that UM would be a for sure match, and then JH will be tough… probably a mid reach just like UCLA.

Judging on your UC GPA alone (since your other GPAs do not make sense to me!):

UCLA/UCB/JH - reach (JH even more of a reach)
UCSD/USC/NYU - low reach
UCSB/UCI - match

actually I recalculated my UC GPA and it is 4.20!

how did u calculate your UC GPA?

@uclaparent9 Sorry to bother you, but could you chance me again? My UC GPA is actually 4.2. Thank you so much!

^ then:
UCLA/UCB/USC - high match
UCSD - match
UCSB/UCI - low match
