<p>Full IB Diploma Candidate
very competitive high school</p>
<p>I know my GPA is kind of low, but will getting a high SAT score (like 2200) and being full IB help my chances at getting into UCs?</p>
<p>UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, UCI, and USC are the ones I'm most interested in. </p>
<p>From what I've read on these forums, colleges would rather see a High GPA/Lower SAT than a Low GPA/High SAT; however, I can't be too sure with UCs. I'm in the same dilemma, and hopefully, someone can respond with a clear answer</p>
<p>I believe the UC's will take your competitive school into consideration. It's not like they have a standard for GPA's for every school. The standard is based on the class's average for that particular school. From the looks of it, I'd say your chances are good for the UC's.</p>
<pre><code> Try to attain more leadership-involved activities and are you in a sport? Also, I've heard the essay has climbed the ladder in terms of importance.... so take that a bit more into consideration.
