<p>UC Berkeley- low reach
UC Davis- match
UCLA- high match/low reach
UCSD- higher match
UCSB- match
Stanford- ultra high reach
UPenn- high reach
JHU- reach
USC- low reach</p>

<p>Your test scores will need to come up for your low reach and higher schools. Good luck!</p>

<p>UC Berkeley high reach

UCLA reach
UCSD high match
UCSB match
Stanford super high reach
UPenn high reach
JHU reach
USC low reach</p>

<p>improving your test scores would help. also, instead of retaking physics you might consider taking a different SAT2 where you could get a 700+ score. grades look good, and your ecs are solid. you have good chances for a lot of these schools. good luck!</p>

<p>Forgot to include that I’m a first-generation college student.</p>

<p>Your UC chances also dependent on your major. If, for example, Engineering then UC Berkeley becomes a higher reach and UCLA becomes a definite reach with your current SAT scores.</p>

<p>Ahhh, well I’ll most likely be majoring in Neuroscience or Biology. Btw, if I hypothetically get a 2150 or so, how much will my chances of getting into Cal or UCLA be affected?</p>
