<p>I would say its a match. Your SAT is good as well as your EC's but I think you might need to work more on your GPA. Btw, is your GPA weighted or unweighted from what you just post? If it is weighted, yea definitely to work it on more like keep it above 3.75</p>

<p>getting involved with COSMOS at UCI is terrific and will definitely help your chances of getting in, in fact there is a section on the application involving those programs</p>
