<p>Chances for UCLA BERKELEY USC STANFORD UPENN?
All comments welcomed.
Interested in Engineering and Business</p>

<p>UCLA: In
UCB: In
USC: In
Stanford: REJECT
UPenn: REJECT</p>

<p>From my calculations, your UW GPA is 3.73 (only the five core courses are included: English, math, history, science, language). Though this is slightly weak, the rest of the application makes up for it.</p>

<p>Berkeley: match
UCLA: match
USC: match
Stanford: reach
Penn: good chance</p>

<p>Your ECs show little focus/passion. That's why Stanford's a reach.</p>

<p>Make your essays really good; that could be what gets you into Berkeley and/or Penn.</p>

4

<p>"Little focus/ passion" would make UPenn a reach as well.</p>

<p>kyledavid80, i think computer c++ and dev civ A should be calculated
into the UW gpa right</p>

<p>thanks guys, any suggestions for specific programs or schools
within colleges with engineering and business related?</p>

<p>do my chances change if I apply undeclared, engineering, or business?</p>

6

<p>Berkeley: ok
UCLA: ok
USC: ok
Stanford: reach
Penn: reach</p>

7

<p>buuuuuuuuuuuump</p>

8

<p>Berkeley (engineering): Slight Reach
UCLA: match
USC: In, if you have a lot of money
Stanford: Don't even apply
Penn: (read above)</p>

<p>Has any Asian every received a higher grade on Critical Reading than math.</p>

<p>That must be umpossible =]</p>

10

<p>Writing must be hard for you.
Umpossible.</p>

11

<p>hence the smiley, moron.</p>

<p>to add: in an episode of the simpsons bart says "me fail english. that's umpossible". just trying to add a little humor.</p>

12

<p>Seriously.</p>

13

<p>Wow, nice response! You really seem to be the witty one today.</p>

14

<p>You think?</p>

15

<p>So you tried to insult my English, then you realized it was a joke. I guess that would make you shut down.</p>

<p>And now your attempting to make me feel dumb (and failing) by using one word responses and/or emoticons. Cute.</p>

16

<p>"And now your attempting..."</p>

<p>Quite the joker, you are. =p</p>

17

<p>um, does any one else want to suggest
any potential means to improve my app?</p>

18

<p>bump, help welcomed</p>
