<p>Did you see this?

I am thinking UCD or UCI is more of a target, the others could be a reach.
Your ECs need to show more depth? I would concentrate on a great essay and present your story (any hardships/challenges you faced if any). Also depends how competitive your HS is. If you are from upscale area with lots of high profile students, it may be tougher.</p>

<p>Rephrasing: If you have a great senior year course load (lots of AP), (I think mid-year report may count and even later as an appeal if you are rejected from a top UC…) good AP scores in the ones you have taken, and you can bring up your SAT, focus on the long term ECs that you have , you have a good chance at the other UC as well, unless it is engineering or something that is supposedly hard to get in.</p>

<p>My high school is pretty tough. We sent about 30 kids to Berkeley and 40-50 to Davis. Our API is 869 and in the Silicon Valley, so it’s competitive.</p>

<p>On my AP exams, I got a 5 in Calculus AB and BC, 4 in Chemistry, and 3 in English Language & Composition.</p>

<p>My major will probably be Computer Science or Bioengineering. I’m hoping to get into either UC Davis or UCSD.</p>

<p>your stats suggest that you will definitely get into an ivy league. here are your chances:</p>

<p>princeton: 40%
harvard : 80%
yale: 60%</p>

<p>harvard is 80 because it is easier to get into. anyway by law of probability, if u dont get into 2 of those, you will definitely get into the last one, so you should be fine.</p>

<p>when are the deadlines for the UC schools?</p>
