<p>Are you a California resident? I will assume that you are.
Berkeley: mid/low reach
LA: low reach/high match
Davis: Match
San Diego: Match</p>

<p>Your SAT score is somewhat holding you back for Berkeley and LA, but don’t discount your chances of admission to those schools. For your essays, I really think you missed a golden opportunity to talk about how your mom’s neurological diseases have compelled you to be a neurologist (assuming that they are actually weak and that you’re not being too hard on yourself). </p>
