Good back up schools where I have extremely high chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>GPA is a 4.0 unweighted and I took 1 AP class sophomore year (only one you can take) and 3 AP classes junior year (couldn't take calc or language because not advanced enough in math and had to start a new language in high school) and looking at 5-6 AP classes next year. 33 ACT. Excellent EC's if I may so so myself. Great recommendations. I'm a great writer so hopefully great essays. Haven't taken subject tests yet, but hoping for a 760 in both Bio (M) and Math II. Also, bilingual (can speak, read, AND write another language) Applying for biology major, so hopefully not a huge factor.</p>

<p>SO.. back up schools? some reaches/matches are Rice, Pomona, USC, UCD, UCLA, etc.
Now, I'm just looking for safety schools. suggestions? (I'm in CA)</p>

<p>Well if you’re looking in-state… some of the mid-tier UCs (UCI, UCSB), Pepperdine, USD, Cal Poly to name a few.</p>

<p>It depends what state you are in. I would assume California? </p>
