<p>slight reach. I had the sat ACT sscore as you but my weighted GPA was higher. I had pretty close to the same ECs as you a few clubs with like an outside activity on the weekend.(I got in btw) But I am also Asian it everything seems a lot harder to get in when your Asian.</p>

3

<p>btw, that's my UC gpa. that's the one they use i believe.. i hope..</p>

4

<p>yea thats the one they will use but have you seen the stats for UCLa i think it was like 40% of the nes getting in or something ahve a 4.0 or better(for UC GPA)</p>

<p>I would try to invest a lot of time trying to get your ACT to a 33 to a 34. Also recs aren't needed for UC apps.</p>
