<p>Hi,
I am currently an undergrad student at Kennesaw State University (GA). I have GPA of 3.98, and I'm doing my first semester of organic chemistry research (Spring semester of Junior year). </p>
<p>I was wondering how hard it's to get into UCLA for a PhD in biochemistry and what are my chances?
I am gonna study over the summer for the GRE, and I should have a strong LOR from my mentor. I am an international student, but I will get my degree in the US. My dream is to get accepted to a good school, such as MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Harvard,... but I know chances for these schools are much lower than for other schools.<br>
I'd like to know how is UCLA rate of acceptance compared to these top schools and WHAT ARE MY CHANCES. I know my GPA is good, but I only have one semester of research experience (two semesters by the time of application). I tried to do some summer research, but these are financed by REU and you must be US citizen to apply (and I am not).</p>
<p>Thanks! </p>
