<p>Im a new member at CC. I was wondeing if you guys can tell me if I have any chances at making Cal's "mechanical OR civil engineering". I'm a junior at a small high school in San Gabriel Valley in so Cal. At this moment, I am ranked 2 out of 500~ Here are my stats.
SAT I: 2110, SATIIC: 800, SATII bio/chem/physics: on hold (Takin this may,june, oct,nov..)
AP euro: 3
AP bio, eng, physics, CalcBC: pending as well
ECs: 200 hours at nursing home/hospital
Lions club 3 years (treasurer)
CSF (physics club) vice president/co-founder
Red cross, nhs, csf,... 3 years
internship at hostpital this summer.
varisty tennis 2 years
I know that I may seem like I'm going into healthcare with my Ec's, but I can't find any engineering internships. What else should I do to increase my chances of making Cal civil or mecahincal engineering? Also, what kind of scholarships are there for the engineering major?</p>
<p>GPA? 10 character count</p>

<p>I'd say you are fine. Before I applied to Cal or done any serious research on its admissions, I thought Cal engineering was impossibly hard to enter. But since I've applied, I've learned that its not too hard to get in. Just keep up your work and it should be no problem.</p>
<p>hey, uhm yur stats look pretty good but you could boost that sat1 score up...and i hope that ap euro score was a bad day... uhm lets see on ur uc app... theres only room for 4 extracurriculars and you can demonstrate ur interest in engineering through one of ur essays (it's suggested that if u apply into engineering, one of ur essays should be about engineering). i think the uc's are basically all bout the numbers (gpa, sat2's, sati), but some people that i knew with good numbers only got in for spring semester...i got accepted into bioengineering w/ regents but yea...you should consider eecs with ur stats maybe..i dont think mech and ce are as impacted as eecs,ee,bioe so you should be fine</p>
