<p>white/female/california resident
3.5 W gpa. 3.3/3.2 UW.
but a UC gpa of 3.6
SAT: 1630 (taking again in october... hoping to get atleast in the 1700/1800 range) SAT subject tests: math II- 610 us history-620
my rank is like 120 something out of like 650ish. so that makes me just under the top 20% at my school... but barely.. im at like 19% haha</p>

<p>in the middle of my sophomore year, i moved across the country, from florida to california. im not sure if that really makes a difference though.</p>

<p>i have a big improvement range throughout high school.
9th grade was 3.2
10th was 3.5
11th was 4.2</p>

<p>I took AP Psych (got a 5) AP US history (3) and AP Lang/Comp (3)
and im in my senior year right now and im taking 4 AP classes.</p>

<p>As for ECs..
CSF for 2 years. Character counts for 2(was treasurer for the first year). And Key Club for 2. the only reason i dont have an EC for all four years is because i moved states and Florida didnt obviously have CSF and they didnt have Character counts. so i just did key club there. I have a ton of community service. I also voluteered at a place that teaches kids about the ocean and how its important to keep it clean.
Also I work outside of school a lot...</p>

<p>My school list:
cal poly san luis obispo
UC santa barbara
UC davis
san diego state
chapman
Loyola marymount
Pepperdine
University of san diego
whittier</p>

<p>so if anyone can make any suggestions or if anyone has any other schools in mind for me that are in california tell me :) thanks</p>

<p>hm i hope youre right! but i heard that most of the matches you put are actually reaches. and the safeties were the matches</p>

<p>Who have you heard that from? I am fairly confident in my assessment. I am confident that is how it will play out for a majority of your schools.</p>

5

<p>from guidance counselors, and also in my general research and from word of mouth and stuff. but who knows.</p>

6

<p>Well, I guess then you could say no one has an idea except the adcom. But I am confident that by my assessment,you will get into a lot of those schools.</p>
