<p>Hi guys, I'm really aiming for mid tier UCs, except davis, and a high reach would be SD.</p>

<p>Thanks for taking the time to chance me:</p>

<p>Bio Science major
3.55 uw
3.7 ish w</p>

<p>2230/ 610 / 700</p>

<p>200 hrs volunteering(at different places)
some unpaid work experience
no leadership positions in clubs</p>

<p>Indian American, born here, first gen, low income</p>

<p>I got the supplement for uc irvine, although it might have been only because I applied EOP. </p>

<p>Thanks again guys, I just want to know if it's possible. </p>

<p>On a side note, the SAT thing was a "4th time is a charm" kinda deal, would that hurt me in any way?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>of course you have a good chance, any time they have not told you that you are rejected, there is still hope …</p>

<p>thanks leakers</p>

<p>You have a pretty good chance I believe. Don’t be surprised if you get waitlisted though…it happens. I don’t think you will be rejected though.</p>

5

<p>we will all know by 3/21 … 5 more freaking days !!!</p>

<p>Five days is when my spring vacation starts. :)</p>

<p>I look forward to seeing you little high school seniors celebrating. . .or screaming. . . about the decisions.</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>first of all theleakers best response ever :D</p>

<p>and i think you have a really good shot especially because of your SAT score
though the gpa is kinda lowish for UCSB (not by a lot or anything) but then it depends on your course load as well</p>

<p>also just out of curiosity why not davis? its bio program is really good</p>

<p>Thanks ocean, you’re right, it happens.</p>

<p>@above poster: Yea that GPA thing is really bringing me down I guess. I don’t want to go to Davis mainly because it’s really far from home, I live in the san fernando valley, about 20 miles from LA. I’m definitely going to be staying in the dorms, but I would like to come home every now and then. Thanks for the chance!</p>

<p>Thanks for all the replies guys.</p>
