<p>privates they look at it, publics they dont.
but your chances seem good just as long as you get a nice sat/act score, you know it is all riding on that.</p>

<p>Just get good SAT/ACT scores and you can probably aim even a little higher (provided that you’re interested in other schools). You seem to have some unique experiences (i.e. brain tumor, parents’ separation, TV/movie actor) that, if made into good essays, could improve your chances significantly despite your 10th year grades.</p>

4

<p>You have a good shot at the UCs, but being OOS (international) will make them much tougher.</p>

5

<p>great anyone elsE?</p>

6

<p>Strong int’l applicant for UCs, but like kyledavid said, its harder for int’ls. USC is a very good shot, but you would have to do well on the SATs as well. Getting the average (1500) is not going to cut it for pretty much any of the schools on there. Breaking 2000, on the other hand, would make you competitive (high match given int’l status) for all of them. </p>

<p>As for UBC, I’d wager no one on here would be able to chance you on that, but I guess your grades aren’t too far off, although the only reference I have for that is my friend who got in with a 95% average…</p>
