<p>Both your GPA and SAT are just a bit below average for UMich admission. You should be a high match for LSA and high match to low reach for CoE.</p>

<p>For UC Berkeley, everything is about grades. I’m applying there too and have a 3.7 UW/2300 and am looking at it as a safety.</p>

<p>Just work on your Reading section–try to get >2250 and you should be fine!</p>

<p>UMichigan is a complete crapshoot these days, so I can’t say anything. </p>

<p>Chance me back?

<p>For the admitted class of 2010, the middle 50th percentile ranges for the ACT was 28-32 and the SAT was 1960-2200. Please note, however, that no test score or GPA will guarantee admission, and that the student’s entire application package is taken into consideration when making admissions decisions. -From UMich Website</p>

<p>2130 is about 66th percentile. Assuming that this is true, is this good enough? And what do you mean by high match to low reach?</p>

<p>As a safety? Man, Berkeley is my no. 1 choice. Dude, you belong in Ivy League, go away, haha</p>

<p>Berkeley average SAT is around 2040 which is what their website says</p>

<p>so I’m like hoping to get in so hopefully if I don’t improve that much on the SAT, I can still get in</p>

Why are you posting so much outdated stat for UMich? The 2013 admission stat is out and the average GPA is 3.85. Mid 50 ACT is 29-33 (same as 2012), while mid 50 SAT is 2030-2250 (20-40 higher than 2012). The overall acceptance rate was 33%. UMich put a lot of weight on GPA and class rank.
These stats are for UMich overall, for engineering, the average GPA should be around 3.9 (as 2012), and 1-2 points higher for ACT, ~100 points higher for SAT.</p>
