<p>The only thing I’d worry about is the SAT I score. But I doubt it will hold you back, you’re strong everywhere else. And I think if you talk about all the languages you know in your UC essays, you will be accepted into the linguistics major no problem.</p>

<p>your great! I had a 1740 SAT I but far less EC than you so maybe take the SAT I again for a higher score and your in.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance at Ucsc. You’re gpa is on the right level,Sat II scores are good. Maybe retake the SAT I once more to get into the 1700’s.</p>
