<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>They dont count 9th grade GPA, but they will look for a possible upward trend.</p>

<p>Are you OOS or in-state?</p>

<p>Your GPA is low, SAT is average, and ECs are average for Cal and LA so they are likely low reaches.</p>

<p>NYU is a little less selective and should be a high match.</p>

<p>Of these three, only NYU will consider the teacher rec, just FYI.</p>

<p>I agree with BuBBLES FoR SALE; your scores are about average or just very slightly below average for all three schools. Your extracurriculars are solid but not exceptional. Fair shot for all of them.</p>

<p>I’ve never heard of transferring between high schools to have any impact on admissions. The UC midyear report is only for transfer applicants who have to report their grades. Freshmen are not supposed to submit transcripts or anything like that to the UC system unless requested.</p>

<p>Wow, these are really get ECs! I see them as totally “above average.” GPA is rather low and SAT is only slightly above average.</p>

<p>UCLA: High Match
NYU: High Match
UCB: High Math-Low Reach</p>

<p>I am an in-state (CA) resident. Also, does NYU view heavily on freshmen year grades? I’m applying to Stern, and I received a very low (3.2 GPA) Freshmen year. But got a 3.9 & 3.7 since then.</p>
