Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>No SAT and/or ACT scores?</p>

<p>I do feel as if my GPA limits me to what major I want to choose.</p>

4

<p>My ACT score is 21. I know I can do better, had problems during the test day.
I will be retaking it this month.</p>

5

<p>Yes or no?</p>

6

<p>You will probably need to get that score up to at least a 29. Everything else on your application looks excellent.</p>

<p>im also applying for UCLA undergrad L&S-social science undecided for next year :p</p>

<p>If you can get an SAT >2050 or ACT over 30 I’d say you’re pretty good. EC’s are as strong as they can get. GPA is decent, it won’t hurt you if you’ve taken a lot of APs.</p>

<p>With a lowish GPA, you definitely need a higher test score. Maybe the ACT isn’t your thing, try the SAT. As for your extracurriculars, it is definitely an impressive list, but UCs limit how many you can list on an application (5 extracurriculars, 5 volunteer, 5 work experience)</p>
