<p>My major EC is soccer. I've played through the JV/Varsity level all 4 years of high school. Team captain Junior and Senior years. Won district championships and hoping to catch the eyes of coaches soon since I'm considered a good player. Also been involved in club soccer all my life and have won various awards and trophies. </p>

<p>Although I've had little time to focus on things besides soccer and school I have been able to volunteer in some community service activities as well.</p>

<p>So, you guys think I have a shot at UCSD? Even if it's kinda slim? Oh, and I can write well so consider all of this plus the fact my essays will be good too. Thanks for any answers.</p>

<p>yea You have shot. It may be slight reach with that UC gpa. But if you score 2000+ on SAT it would help a lot.</p>

<p>a sat of 2100 or over would help your odds a lot. unfortuantly for you, uc's weigh gpa more heavilly than sat. but still i believe you got a shot with an sat of around 2100. ucsd's average uc gpa for admitts last year was a 4.04, but get your sat up high and you got a shot. </p>

<p>as of right now:</p>

<p>UCSD: Reach</p>

<p>with a 2100 sat:</p>

<p>UCSD: Slight Reach</p>
