<p>Not sure how helpful this will be because i’m not sure which is the most selective school to school, but I think your grades and ECs are fine. The SAT writing and cr need a boost but I think that taking it again will remedy that based on experience. A legit question is where you live because the UCs are going to start taking more OOS students because of the budget crisis. I think I saw an article about it in the LA Times.</p>

<p>Pretty good shot at all if you bring up your SAT score. retake?</p>

<p>But SD is a high match even with a good SAT score. Write a good essay. you have a decent chance there.</p>

<p>If your GPA’s not too hot, you better bring some heat with SAT/ACT. Right now, both isn’t looking too good right now.</p>
