Chances for UC Berkeley

<p>3.92 Unweighted GPA
4.25 UC GPA
2030 SAT
Subject tests in Math 2 & Chemistry...haven't received scores yet but expect reasonably high for both.</p>

<p>AP Tests:
Expected 5 in Calculus
Expected 4 in Chemistry</p>

<p>ECs: Volunteering, Job, Sports
I'm in California
Plan on applying for Chemical/Materials Engineering</p>

<p>Additionally, what can I do to increase my chances?</p>

<p>Are you in-state or oos? UC gpa? What college & major do you plan on applying to?</p>

<p>Just edited post to answer those questions, thanks.</p>

<p>^ Chemical Engineering is in the College of Chemistry (tough to get into), while Materials is in the engineering school (even tougher). I did get off the wait list & into ChemE w/similar stats, so I’d call it a high match for ChemE but a reach for regular engineering. GPA is more important than test scores at Cal, which is to your advantage. Also, one would expect the professional schools to be highly stat-driven, but personal statements are huge. I know because I had a 630 in the Math2 subject test (LOL) & no science subject tests/AP scores to report (currently enrolled in AP Chem, though), sooo work on those essays! They’re vital.</p>
