<p>so, how are my chances for OOS?</p>

<p>Slight Reach on account of your OOS, and also because it depends on how many of your Honors classes count with honors credit by the UC system. As it stands, only your APs will count for sure, so your UC GPA could be anywhere between a 3.7~4.0, which is a weak but competitive GPA. If you can get a 2200, that would indeed boost your chances so long as you're looking into a non-engineering major. EC's are helpful as well.</p>

<p>BTW, there is a thread for this >_>;;</p>

<p>Thanks for the help. I dont know what thread you're talking about though, it doesnt really matter though.</p>

<p>So my UC gpa would be weak?</p>
