<p>I think you have a real good shot at the UCs, probably a reach for Stanford. Your weakness is that your ECs don't cover a broad range of activities, but they're focused and show good leadership potential. You got to have solid essays too, from what I've heard, Californian universities look at the depth of your writing and personal experiences. Good luck with admissions! You'll be fine!</p>

<p>Can you please give me your opinion about my chances for university admission?
