<p>I didn't get a hot score on my SAT (I will retake it though) and I'm taking the ACT in March. But based solely off what I've posted and not standardized test scores, do I have a good chance of getting in?</p>

<p>I'm looking to go into Pre-Med.</p>

<p>You definitely have a chance to be admitted into UCLA but your unweighted GPA is a tad bit lower than average.</p>

<p>Aim for at least 2100 on the SAT. That should balance things out and make you a “match”.</p>

3

<p>What is your UC GPA? If it’s 4.3+, and you can get your SAT to 2100+, you have a good chance, especially if you’ve been involved in those ECs for any long period of time.</p>

<p>how do you find your UC gpa if your not an in-state applicant?</p>

5

<p>you have a good chance. do a good essay, and get at least 2100+ on SAT (like everyone said)</p>

<p>^to add on: make sure your senior schedule is very rigorous as UCLA really looks for that. Also, class rank doesn’t matter for UC’s.</p>

<p>I’m taking full overload with rigorous classes senior year. I’m also taking dual credit classes at the local community college.</p>

<p>In addition, I was just accepted into the National Honors Society.</p>

<p>Take more AP’s, get 5’s, get a 2200+ on the SAT, 700-750+ SAT2’s, and maybe a 3.8-3.9 uw gpa and you should be good.</p>

<p>Also, calculate your UC Gpa. (google it and find out) And you should aim for a 2100+ or 31+ on SAT/ACT to be above the 60th percentile to give yourself a good chance. UCLA gets more competitive every year so I would aim for a 2200+ or a 33 or higher to really give yourself a great shot. My biggest regret as a current senior is that I didn’t take the SAT and ACT more than once, so i’m “stuck” at a 2130/32. Hopefully it’ll be good enough for UCLA. So just retake tests; retake them prepared, not on a whim. CC has a SAT/ACT forum to help you. There’s some pretty helpful guides in that forum. Taking SAT II’s will only help you. Pick your two best subjects and try to get 700+ on both of them. In the summer, I’d advise you to start your personal statement and make it very strong. UCLA relies on the personal statement to learn about you and your personal qualitites.</p>
