<p>Note: I really really really really want to go to UCLA or UCSD :)</p>

<p>Well I'm certainly rooting for you on UCLA because I also want to be an engineer there...however my app is alot like yours...strong gpa and good extracurriculars and such...but unfortunately I think our SAT scores are too low :( for engineering anyways because they really look at that at HSSEAS. I saw that the average SAT score of an admitted engineering major there was 2130 and they dont like anything below that. Otherwise looks good keep up the good work.</p>

<p>Thanks, appreciate that. But anyway, I hope both get in.</p>

<p>Well its just that I feel cheated out of admissions because of a "low" score. Obviously 1970 is terrific its like the UCLA average which is also great but HSSEAS really is stubborn in looking at those scores sooo much. If you havent already check out the post from a UCLA engineering major...</p>

<p>SAT2 scores?
I think UCLA/UCB will be reaches
The other schools u can get into.</p>

<p>SAT2:
French W/ Listening: 470
Lit: 480
Math 2: 640
Chem: 640
US: 690</p>

<p>I think it depends a lot on whether you expressed enthusiasm/motivation for learning in your area of study. Which major did you want to pursue a UCLA?</p>

<p>he doesnt have enough EC for UCLA...u need killer essays to get into UCLA anyways...so it all depends</p>

<p>Yeah if you had some activities or involvement relating to your major that would definitely be a plus...</p>

<p>I put CHEMISTRY as my major. I talked about science and science olympiad and my future in my 3rd essay so there.</p>

<p>ehhh, i guess</p>

<p>Don't "ehhh, i guess" me.</p>

<p>good chance for most of the above</p>

<p>lol fine you'll get in, UCLA = match ahah</p>

<p>if you applied for chem at berkeley I think you have a very slim chance of getting in. The college of chem is very competitive.</p>

<p>UCLA: Match</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Slight Reach (in state)
UCSD: Match (in state)</p>

<p>The rest you should be in no problem. Best of luck with UCSD and UCLA!</p>
