<p>Hey guys. I've posted my stuff many times already I know but I just completed my SATs and all that so I guess this is final.</p>
<p>1480 SAT
720 Writing
700 Math IC
690 US History</p>
<p>228 hours of community service
couple of clubs, one leadership position
youth group leader
bible teacher
tutor</p>
<p>I'm applying to UCLA, UCB, UCI, UMich, UPenn, USC, Boston University and Rutgers. Thanks guys.</p>
<p>haha wow I forgot to post my grades. What an idiot! 3.7 gpa and top 10% of my class. By the way I have alumni relations as my brother attended Mich.</p>
<p>You have a good chance for Mich, but you better apply ASAP since they are rolling admissions. If you haven't submitted your application, then your chances decrease as each day goes by.</p>
<p>Do you live in California? If you don't, then say bye-bye to UCLA, UCB and UCI.
USC, on the other hand, is private, so it would be a good match.</p>
<p>UPenn is a reach.</p>
<p>I'm not familiar with Boston Univ's standards.</p>
<p>Rutgers is a safety.</p>
<p>oh i applied for mich like in november. and i am not a california resident</p>
<p>fearfulliving:</p>
<p>UCLA: Slight Reach (out of state)
UCB: Slight Reach (out of state)
UCI: Safe Match (out of state)
Michigan: Match
UPenn: Slight Reach
USC: Match
BU: Safe Match
Rutgers: Safe Match</p>
<p>thanks guys. anyone else?</p>
<p>bump..................</p>
<p>bump..................</p>
<p>guys i really need some help please.</p>
<p>UCLA: Reach
UCB: Slight Reach
UCI: Safety
Michigan: Match
UPenn: Reach
USC: Match
BU: Safety
Rutgers: idk</p>
<p>When did you apply to Michigan? If you applied in October, you are as good as in. If you applied in November, you have a good chance, but not 100%. If you applied in December, you chances are still ok, but not great. If you apply in January, you have a 50/50 chance.</p>
<p>As for the other schools, here's how I would rate your chances:</p>
<p>UCB - Reach/match
UCLA - Reach/match
UCI - Safety
Penn - Reach/match
USC - Match
BU - Safety</p>
<p>Thanks guys. badabing why did you say UCLA is harder than Berkeley for me? I thought UCB was always harder to get into.</p>
<p>anyone? please guys i really need your help. thanks guys.</p>
<p>I thought UPenn would be a major reach with those SAT scores and GPA. Am I wrong Alexandre? Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong in thinking this.</p>
<p>I also thought it would be a major reach. I'm just applying for the hell of it.</p>
<p>Guys can anybody else please help me?</p>
<p>FutureMD and Fearfullliving, a 1480 SAT score and 3.7 GPA puts you in the "reach" bracket along with most applicants. Such applicants can only differentiate themselves with their essays and ECs. So it really depends on how the University perceives you through the application form.</p>
