chances for uc's?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>i hate to say it, but i slacked off during my sophomore and junior year and it hurt me extremely badly. i want to know what my chances are at all uc's but basically just ucsd, uci, and ucr. i'd like to put ucla but i know it's impossible. ucsd is even being ridiculously hopeful. here's my info</p>

<p>gpa:3.1
sat: 2060
sat2 math2c: 670
korean 650</p>

<p>i put a heck lot of extra curicular such as different music groups, marching band, a bunch of church leadership stuff, volunteer work etc. i actually think my essays were pretty well written. i had them reviewed by a 2 ucla students and 4 ucsd students, and 2 of my english teachers. all said they were good except a few word changes, grammar errors etc. i've taken a total of 6 ap classes and am taking a college writing course right now at a community college. </p>

<p>chances? for ucsd, uci, ucr. or for all uc's.
thanks in advance</p>

<p>wuts ur weighted? if u have like a 3.5 w ucsd is doable with ur SAT :D</p>

<p>Your SAT score is good for the UCs, but your unweighted GPA might hurt a bit. What's your weighted?</p>

<p>If 3.1 is your UC GPA:</p>

<p>3.1 UC GPA- 2060 SAT:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Large Reach
UCSD: Reach-Large Reach
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Slight Reach-Reach
UCSC/UCR/UCM: Match</p>

<p>UCSD, UCLA, and UC Berkeley are not realistic. I think you have a shot at possibly getting into one of the mid tier UC's, however, its going to be very tough. If your UC GPA is arround a 3.4 or so, your odds look like this:</p>

<p>3.4 UC GPA- 2060 SAT:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Large Reach
UCSD: Reach
UCI/UCSB/UCD: Math-Slight Reach
UCSC/UCSB/UCD: Safe Match-Safety</p>

<p>Here is a link for you to check out the admission averages for UC schools. Just simply click on the campus and it will display the freshmen admission averages and statistics. This should give you a better feel for what your odds look like:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCB/UCLA: Super Reach
UCSD: Reach
UCI/UCD/UCSB: Slight Reach
UCSC/UCR/UCM: Match</p>

<p>well, i got into ucr, so i know thats my safety now. im just waiting on uci now.</p>

7

<p>best of luck with uci! keep us posted.</p>

8

<p>I'm in the same exact boat as you. Except you have a .1 better GPA, and 110 points on my on the SAT's. I also got into UCR and I'm also Korean. Waiting on UCI seeing as how thats my realistic goal. Goodluck to the both of us!</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: reach-large reach
UCSD: Reach/slight reach-(really depends on outside info)
UCI/UCSB/UCD: match
UCSC/UCR/UCM: safe-match</p>

10

<p>well ok. here's what happened as of today.</p>

<p>accepted: UCR, UCD, UCSC
rejected: UCSB</p>

<p>thats all i've heard from so far. so what can i expect from uci?</p>

11

<p>bump to know what i might expect from uci</p>

12

<p>here is my update</p>

<p>accepted: UCR, UCSC
rejected: UCSB, UCD</p>

<p>still waiting for UCI too =/</p>

13

<p>I thought you were accepted to UCD?</p>

<p>UCI, UCSB, and UCD are all on the same tier -- so you can probably expect the same results from UCI.</p>

14

<p>i was accepted into ucd. there are 2 different people with the same problem
again
accepted: ucr, ucsc, ucd
rejected
ucd</p>

15

<p>yeah, sorry for the confusion and for butting in on your thread. I'm guessing your korean name is saeri kim?</p>

16

<p>it's rough being Korean
.........but not in the UC's....they aint got no affirmative action....after Bakke of course.</p>

<p>:)</p>

17

<p>i thought it was rough being korean in the UCs o_O?</p>

18

<p>It doesn't really matter to the UCs, obviously since there's always such a high proportion of asians to other ethnicities.</p>

19

<p>hey, does anyone know how uc's release their decisions? i heard it was by major. but is that true? because a few of my friends with undeclared major already got in, but i have a declared major (international studies) and i didn't recieve a decision yet. do they just like... release all the rejection's at once?<br>
i'm worried about mainly uci right now.</p>
