<p>Well, your EC’s are alright, so are your test scores and GPA, but nothing that really stands out.
UCLA and UCB are reaches, the rest are matches.</p>

4

<p>Sounds good sounds good! Thanks!</p>

5

<p>I actually think you have a really good chance at LA and Berkeley, and that the rest are safeties. I can definitely see you have worked hard.</p>

<p>you should get into Irvine and Davis for sure. SD you have probably an 80% chance. UCLA and Berkeley are about 50/50 id say. good work!</p>

11

<p>Thanks, more, guys???[</p>

12

<p>Your chances look damn good, especially since you’re from Cali and UCs only admit in-staters. :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Chance a Michigander for U of M (and NU): <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1082729-chances-northwestern-umich-will-chance-back.html#post11950809[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1082729-chances-northwestern-umich-will-chance-back.html#post11950809&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

13

<p>any more, guys? all feedback appreciated!</p>

14

<p>It’s not true that UC’s only admit in-staters. When I went to UC Riverside, I knew people who were from out of state. The same applies for the other UC campuses.</p>

<p>I’m going to agree with everyone else here. I’d say UC Davis and UC Irvine are matches. UCSD should be good too, maybe slightly less because it’s more competitive. UCLA and UC Berkeley however are crap shoots for everyone, regardless of GPA and test scores. But good luck!!! I hope you get into those places.</p>

15

<p>Irvine and Davis for sure!!!
Good luck with LA and Berkeley. You have a shot!! </p>

<p>Chance back please :)</p>

16

<p>Berkeley and LA are low-mid reaches.</p>

17

<p>You’ll definitely get into most of them. Your GPA is a little low for UCLA and Cal but you still have a really good chance for both of them.</p>

<p>Chance back? :slight_smile:
