<p>I really want to go to UCLA as of now as a business/econ or psychology major. What are my chances at the following schools:</p>
<p>UCLA
UCB
UCI
USC</p>
<p>Also, I've been slacking on the AP review a bit this year, will any poor scores I get this year affect my admission to any of these schools?</p>
<p>EDIT:
I'm also in NHS, CSF, and anticipated IB Diploma candidate</p>
<p>I don't understand how you're an IB Diploma candidate if no IB's are taken? Anyways, You have an EXCELLENT shot at each college. Grade's are exquisite, and SAT's are good. Try to improve SAT's if you still can just to make it a better bet. By the way, I'm saying this all assuming you're a California Resident.</p>
<p>UCLA: Match
UCB: Match
UCI: Super Super Safety
USC: Match'</p>
<p>P.S. i take back that resident thing, i can see you are from the school you attend haha.</p>
<p>IB classes tend to dominate senior year at my highschool. Also, 2100+ is what I want to hit minimum. Hopefully I can get around 2250 w/ a lot of study. But do the UCs take AP scores into account during apps?</p>

<p>Wait that still doesn't make sense, you need 3 HL courses and 3 SL courses plus TOK, to get a IB diploma, plus the fact the HL courses run 2 full years. Do you mean an IB certificate for a specific subject, or the full diploma</p>
<p>Full Diploma. I'm not exactly sure how it works at our school but somehow I end up with an IB diploma after senior year. The only ib test I'm taking this year is Psych standard level. Next year I'll take HL english, history, and bio w/ sl's in spanish and math.</p>
<p>We have an IB Block senior year called humanities, it covers english, history and tok. It's a 2 period block class with 3 teachers and you rotate. It's a weird system.</p>
<p>Yay that is weird, but I probably would like that better....It seems more efficient. You pretty much get your junior year freed up, which is awesome becuase right now my junior year and senior year will be packed, meaning not going to be able to take classes I would enjoy, less AP classes I can take, and I have to take required courses online (health, comp tech. fincial literacy, governemnt, P.E.), its a real drag. I wish I had your system</p>
<p>I pretty much had the same stats as you. #3/ 800, 4s and 5s on ap tests, 4.65 weighted and a 2100. I got into all of those schools. i think you have a great chance. i got regent's to ucsb, davis and uci, it was a tough choice but i picked ucla in the end. go bruins! you have a great shot at regent's scholarships i'd say. good luck, don't stress.</p>
<p>For USC $$- If you write stellar essays you'll probably get some good money (I'm talking Deans/Pres/Trustee). There are people with higher SAT and grades than me who have lower $$ scholarships (than i got) and there are ppl with lower SAT scores and grades who got higher $$ scholarships. So it really doesn't depend on grades/scores. Gluck!</p>
