Chances of getting into UCI?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Okay, so right now I'm a junior in high school and I've pretty much decided that I want to go to UCI's Paul Merage business school, and it seems to me like I should be able to get in, but I'm not sure because I've read that their business school is particularly selective due to limited admissions... Tell me what you think. My stats are:</p>

<p>Sophomore GPA 3.89 (UW)
Junior GPA 4.2 (W) 4.0 (UW)
I've only taken one AP class, and that was this year.
currently the junior class Vice President for ASB.
I've done a couple school plays.
Not sure if it makes any difference on an application, but I've had a steady job for the last 7 months (Will be nearly a year by the time I can apply in October)</p>

<p>SAT Score: 1930
Crit. Reading - 630
Math - 660
Writing - 640</p>

<p>And that's about it... I know my academics are good, but I haven't really done too much EC stuff, and that kind of concerns me, because I know they really like to see that too. I'm also hoping to get a couple really good letters of recommendations.</p>

<p>Bump! Anyone have any idea?</p>

<p>UCI Merage: Match</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good chance! Academic stats are good</p>

<p>I would say UCI would be a reach for you, here’s why</p>

<p>-SAT is about average (1870? according to 2010 data, probably 1900 now)
-It sounds like you didn’t do much for EC’s
-You only took one AP class so far, your competitors have taken 4-5</p>

<p>Listen to me and you’ll improve your chances, take the SAT again in october if you haven’t taken it 3 times already, pick at least 4 AP classes for next year and do a kick-ass job first semester.</p>

<p>I’d say high match. Your stats are around the sweet spot, but your lack of course rigor might come back to hurt you. Good luck!</p>

<p>low match - lack of course rigor and rather low sat score, did you take any subject tests?</p>
