Also forgot to add that I am a California resident and my parents income is ~30,000

3

You are a very strong candidate for all of them.

4

Even for UCLA and UCB? I feel like my ACT is on the low side for eecs at Berkeley.

5

With that GPA and a 36 on math Berkeley is attainable.

6

You are a competitive applicant for all the schools. Good Luck.

7

You should get accepted to all of these schools. The only ones that aren’t complete guarantees are UCB and UCLA. Good luck!

Thanks for the input everyone and hopefully I will get into one of my top choices!
