<p>Wow! You look amazingly strong! But you correctly identified your weak spots. What happened during AP test week? Your SAT scores are also rather low for Stanford. I'm not really familiar with the other schools besides Stanford but i'm thinking that they can probably overlook your weak test scores by realising that you are just a weak test taker. I think that you will get in those schools, except i'm not sure about Stanford because of the scores, i'm thinking you probably won't get in, but it won't hurt to apply, hopefully i'm wrong because you are extremely strong.</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCB/UCLA: Slight Reach
UCSD: Match</p>

4

<p>i need more imput plzz</p>

5

<p>test scores need to be higher for those schools to be considered more safe. but you are applying to schools that emphasize SAT more than anything</p>

6

<p>**** dude, get at least 2200 before thinking about stanford</p>

7

<p>I disagree with Yeti, but I do think that you definitely need to raise your SAT scores to have a chance at Stanford. Right now, with your test scores and your grades, it almost seems like your school gives out As like candy.</p>

<p>No chance for Stanford. UCB/UCLA are reaches. UCSD is a match but not very safe. As has been said, your test scores don't correspond with your GPA so therefore adcoms aren't going to respect that 3.8 as much.</p>

<p>To flopsy,
how are UCB/UCLA only slight reaches with a 1790, 6 failed AP tests, and no SATII's above 680?</p>

<p>Unless you can boost that SAT to at least 2050, I'd look at the "lower" UC schools because there is a good possibility you will get rejected from all 4 of your choices.</p>

<p>Just saw about USC, I don't really know much about the admissions there but it's really expensive and you probably won't get a scholarship.</p>
