Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Berkeley

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I just wanted to know my chances at UChicago.</p>

<p>I have a 4.0 GPA and im taking the following IB subjects:</p>

<p>Economics HL-7
Mathematics (differential option) HL-6
Physics HL-7
Chemistry SL-6
English Lang. and Lit. SL-6
Spanish AB initio SL-7</p>

<p>When i say my GPA is 4.0 its not officially 4.0 but my councellor told me that considering my IB points (listed above) i should expect a GPA of something like 4.</p>

<p>Also, my SAT scores are terrible.</p>

<p>1830- 630(reading), 650 ( maths), 550 ( Writing).</p>

<p>SAT 2 subject tests: 650 Maths 2C
740 Physics. </p>

<p>Im thinking of not giving my SAT 2 scores as i believe my maths scores are pathetic. I dont know how i got so low, I was expecting like 780+ in it.</p>

<p>Also, im giving my SAT 1 for the 3rd and final time now and expect to get atleast 2150 or more. Ive been scoring around 670, 780, 760 for CR, Maths and Writing respectively in my recent princeton review Diagnostic tests as well as the actual SAT past papers.</p>

<p>Also, I dont wanna list all my ECs here as the list is seriously too long but all you need to know is that my ECs are amazing.</p>

<p>My teacher LORs are also phenomenal. My teachers love me. </p>

<p>I also believe that im gonna right fairly decent and creative essays but not so sure about that.</p>
