<p>I think by far my weakest point is are extracurriculars; I don't have the leadership positions or the sports positions that many other competitive applicants have. Assuming a 9/10 essay, are these schools realistic schools or are they too ambitious (especially UCLA and UCB, which are the ones I'm most interested in). Or, am I underestimating myself and should concentrate on other more competitive schools (I will apply anyways, but just curious as to where I stand). Thanks!</p>

<p>I think you are in the ball park for those schools. But it depends on the applicant pool, it varies and you have to compete with them. Maybe add some private schools. UCs can be unpredictable especially in competitive major.</p>

<p>Ok, I’ve decided to add a few more universities. Now, my list is UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCSD, Georgia Tech, Purdue, U of I, and USC. Can somebody give me their opinion? Considering my academic resume, is my list well rounded?</p>
