Do I have a decent chance?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>So I have high functioning autism</p>

<p>Yet I have a 3.8125 GPA from my freshman and sophomore year (I'm going to be a junior in a few days)</p>

<p>I got a B+ in Algebra 1 and a C- in Geometry, but I have A's in every other class (if colleges count A-'s as A's).</p>

<p>I've taken a few practice SATs, and my predictions are that I will get a so-so score in Math, but excellent scores in Critical Reading and Writing. </p>

<p>Predictions:</p>

<p>Critical Reading- 750</p>

<p>Math-600</p>

<p>Writing- from 780 to 100%</p>

<p>So I predict I will get an SAT score ranging from 2130-2150
Freshman year GPA- 3.825
Sophomore Year GPA- 3.6</p>

<p>And my GPAs are 3.9 junior year and my senior year a 4.0.</p>

<p>So my average GPA for all 4 years would be 3.825</p>

<p>So let's say I got that SAT and that GPA (this is a "what if" scenario. I'm not entirely certain I'll get these scores) and I'm autistic but I overcame the struggles of it. </p>

<p>What are my chances of getting into prestigious schools like UC schools? I would also say maybe Stanford if lucky, but I'm certainly not getting my hopes up on that. If I DO get into that college, it'll be a miracle. </p>

<p>For UCs: aim for 3.7+ and 1900+ (but a 3.7/1900 would likely go to UCSC, since then UCD/UCI/UCSB are high matches/reaches even, let alone UCLA/Berkeley)…</p>

<p>Berkeley/UCLA prefer 3.8+ UW if you really did score 2150+.</p>

<p>@ictyson Start the upward trend, and you’ll be fine. See what happens and then post again when you have your final statistics before your actual college admissions season. Stanford, UCB, and UCLA will always be a high reach school for anyone. Move it to a low reach for UCB and UCLA if a california resident. UCSD if you have less than a 3.5, don’t even bother. UCD, UCSB, and UCI depends on your statistics. UCR, UCM, and UCSC are most of the time matches or even safeties. </p>

<p>Good luck, it would be nice for you to achieve that - you will be an inspiration to other people with autism. </p>
