Hi, so I am currently a junior at a medical magnet high school in Los Angeles. I was wondering about my chances getting into UC San Diego. My Fall Semester junior year I received a 3.5 GPA and my spring a 3.8 GPA. I have honors and AP classes, which I did very well in. I also have 100+ hours of community service and over 10 clubs including MESA, Garden Club, and many more. I am also part of a Science Technology and Research program (partnered with USC) which allows me to participate in college labs. This summer I am doing a lab paid internship with USC. Although my SAT score was around a 1200, and have no yet taken the ACT. Do you think I have a good chance ?
