<p>UCLA--match (in-state) slight reach (out-of-state)
UCB--match (in-state) slight reach (out-of-state)
UCSD--match (in or out-of-state)
UCD--safe match
UCI--safety
Stanford--reach
UChicago--slight reach
Northwestern--slight reach
Carnegie-Mellon--match
UMich-Ann Arbor--match
Cornell--slight reach
UPenn--slight reach to reach
USC--match</p>

<p>thx guys, anyone else?
o and btw if this wasn't clear, this GPA is not including P.E....which I know is not counted by UCs and USC and which i think/hope is not counted by privates</p>

<p>is it true that privates count P.E. grades in your GPA?</p>

<p>I'm assuming you live in California...
UCB, UCLA: Slight Match
UCSD, UCD, UCI: Match/ Safe Match
Stanford: Major Reach
UChicago: Slight Reach
Northwestern: Slight Reach
Cornell: Slight Reach
UPenn: Reach</p>

<p>rayman66:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCB/UCLA: Match
UCSD: Safe Match
UCI/UCD: Safety</p>

<p>Good chance at all uc, 10% chance at Stanford.</p>

<p>thanks! anyone else? Oh and by the way would a B and a C in P.E. sophomore year hurt me? The C was because I was ill the day of the final...I calculated this GPA here based on academic courses, but since colleges see the whole transcript would this hurt me?</p>

<p>bump......</p>
