It's an academically super competitve school, and about 80% or my classmates are competitive.
My school does not offer as many AP courses because it's a small school.
Religion class in mandatory so it prevents us from taking a different course.
I believe they have connections with U of ND, Boston College, Loyola Marymount etc</p>

<p>I have a 3.8 unweighted GPA, 4.06 weighted GPA (if I do the A-G requirement)
2000 SAT
28 ACT (retaking it in september, taking classes over the summer so hopefully I get at least 31 or 32?)
SAT IIs: Math II - 760, Bio-E - 610 (retaking october), Korean - 800</p>

-Student Council (9th, 11th and 12th couldn't do 10th b/c I trasnferred to a different school)

<p>Retake your SAT, not sure how good your ACT score is, but you have a decent shot</p>

3

<p>Yes retake your ACT. You want to score at LEAST at 32 IMO (34 and above will put you in confident zone). But I got a 33 so you definitely don’t need a 34 to get in.</p>

4

<p>I got a 30 O_O. But yes, study is good ;]</p>

5

<p>yea i agree, ACT to 30 at least or SAT to 2050+. Wats your uc gpa?? also about how many kids get into ucla from your hs each year? for example, in my hs it was about 10 a year get accepted, so I could say being in the top 10 ranked gave me a good chance of getting in. Btw, no college really cares about CSF and NHS, don’t emphasize that on your app unless you held a position or something. Rite now, ucla is a reach. You can also look at the official decisions thread for this year to see what kind of stats seem to get accepted.</p>

6

<p>your gpa is too low, but they usually evaluate you in context, so you should be alright.</p>

7

<p>I think her GPA is not that low, its a little on the lower end, but her weighted GPA is good. With a good essay you have a shot, just get those sat and sat II scores a as high as you can. You should definitely mention your volunteer services, since i’ve noticed you even got an award for it.</p>
