<p>Not enoungh info to say for sure but, from what you posted above, I’d say your chances for UC admission are pretty slim.</p>

<p>It sounds like you are just starting your Jr year so, you still have some time to get your GPA and test scores up. Focus on that and plan to apply broadly - including some UCs and your local CSU.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
