<p>Great Test scores…you’re in everywhere :stuck_out_tongue: lol, at least in my opinion.</p>

3

<p>great test scores, gpa is a bit on low side for HYPSM</p>

<p>I’d say UIUC is a match,
and the UC’s are matches, but Berkeley and UCLA might be high-match</p>

<p>do some more volunteering this summer if you can… 300+ hours might look pretty good … =)</p>

<p>Gee…… Some of the chances do not make sense.</p>

<p>Relatively low GPA and being an Asian male from California will hurt your chances.
Decent SAT I and good SAT II scores if you get 800 or high 700 from Physics. (I don’t think Chinese subject test will count.)</p>

<p>Harvard: High Reach
Stanford: High Reach
MIT: High Reach
Caltech: High Reach
Princeton: High Reach
Columbia: Reach
Chicago: Reach
Johns Hopkins: Reach</p>

<p>UC Berkeley: Very good chances
UCLA: Very good chances
UIUC: Very good chances</p>

<p>UC San Diego: Safety
UC Davis: Safety
University of Maryland: Safety</p>

<p>Asian male + relatively low GPA + geographical majority = ouch.
Harvard: high reach 15%
Stanford: high reach
MIT: mid to high reach 20%
Caltech: high reach
Princeton: high reach
Columbia: high reach
Chicago: match 60%
Johns Hopkins: high match 50%</p>

<p>Cal: low match/safety 80%
UCLA: same
UIUC: in 95+%
UCSD: in
