<p>Going to be senior when school year starts, i do live in California</p>
<p>10th-11th GPA: 3.95</p>
<p>ACT: 28 ( i did horrible on the SAT, 1710)</p>
<p>SAT II: US History 770, Chinese 800</p>
<p>3 honor/AP courses through 10th, 11th grade ( 2 more AP classes in 12th grade)</p>
<p>No known class ranks ( most likely top 25%)</p>
<p>very good public high school</p>
<p>EC: did track for 4 years, member of few clubs, got few awards, basically super average :/</p>
<p>Is you gpa wt or un wt ? Are they all a-g UC requirement ? Are you chinese ? If you do, even though you got 800 on satII chinese, it’s not impressive. You 'd much better take another subject test such as math or science. What’s your intended major ? A lot of question marks ? Try to retake SAT1 or ACT. UC just want scores in 1 sitting.You still have time to retake in Oct.</p>
<p>that is right, UC basically look only at the SAT scores. My D could not get into UCLA casue her SAT I is around 2000.</p>
<p>^ Not true! I know countless people, including myself that were able to get into UC schools when their SAT’s were below the average. </p>
<p>Its heavily dependent on the GPA (or at least more so than one may think).</p>
<p>I’m not sure about how admissions will be fluctuating given the budget cuts and increased competition in the overall scheme of things–I would say you have a fair chance. Raise your SAT/ACT and you should be in the door! </p>
<p>@ uscdcc UC schools don’t at ethnicity/race. They may ask for demographic purposes, but ethnicity/race is not a factor on whether you get in or not. </p>
<p>I have peers whose SAT scores were similar to yours, and they made it! Good luck! Make sure you have solid essays!</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies! My GPA is weighted; I think I’m going to take the Math II for SAT II also. I don’t have a intended major yet, is that going to hurt my chances?</p>
