<p>You’re in the interquartile range of admitted students with those stats. SAT and SAT 2s are weak so bump those all up to 700’s in all the categories and I’d say you’re a solid match if you can get a 2100 SAT and 2 700+ SAT 2s. Your unweighted GPA is great. Good job and good luck.</p>

<p>okay! thank you so much! how important are the sat II scores to admission officers?</p>

4

<p>Match/Low Reach. Don’t submit ACT score.</p>

5

<p>And to answer your question in post #3: very important.</p>

6

<p>UCLA does not concentrate on sat scores, the admissions officers focus more on gpas.</p>

7

<p>I’d say match.</p>

<p>^and that’s a lie. UCLA gives a comprehensive view of all their students.</p>

8

<p>@Albama do you realize how many latinos and african americans on this campus have <1500 SAT score and lower than a 3.6 gpa? a lot. obviously SAT and gpa isnt everything about the application.</p>

9

<p>^I never said they were everything in an application… I merely said that SAT scores were very important, as shown in score/GPA distributions of accepted students.</p>

<p>And for every one person who got in with a 3.6 GPA/<1500 SAT, I’m sure there were at least 5 people who got in with a 4.0 WGPA, 2000+ SAT.</p>

<p>The uc system places less emphasis on the sat relative to privates, HYPSM.</p>
