UCLA, UCB - Reach ??</p>

3

<p>UCI, UCSB - Safe Match
UCSD - Match
UCLA, UCB - Slight Reach</p>

<p>Strong SAT, good amount and deph of EC but GPA is a little on the 'weak' side for UCLA and Cal.</p>

<p>Since you aren't a korean girl (I <3 BoA) and cause i need to study, I will be brisk. </p>

<p>BAD >>>> UC GPA: 3.821</p>

<p>UCs are extremely GPA oriented. SAT I and II come in second, but GPA is first. </p>

<p>UCLA,UCB - reach (10%)
UCSD - match (60-70%)
in at the others.</p>

<p>thanks a lot. if i don't get into la, i'm planning to appeal. if that doesn't work, i'm going to the next uc on the list and go for a transfer or so. any opinions on this?</p>

6

<p>you can't transfer from a UC to a UC if that's what you meant</p>

7

<p>i can't? i was under the impression that i could, it's just more difficult because priority was given to community college transfers...</p>

<p>Strategos:</p>

<p>UCB/UCLA: Slight Reach
UCSD: Match
UCI/UCSB: Safe Match</p>
