<p>It's all in the essay for Berkeley; however, when it comes to UCLA - you have a tad chance because your SAT is high, enough. Don't count UCLA though, that much -</p>

<p>Yeah, if you can definitely get in if you raise your SAT II a few pts. Take the october SAT!!</p>

<p>your sat 2 scores are good enough already. I would not even worry about that at all.</p>
